Okay, so I’ve been messing around with Tarot cards lately, and I had this idea to try something called the “Seven Stories” spread. I’d never done it before, so I figured, why not give it a shot and see what happens? I grabbed my deck – the one with the really cool artwork, you know, the kind that just speaks to you? – and shuffled it while thinking about a general question about my career path. I’m kinda at a crossroads, so I was hoping for some clarity. I am not so sure of my work, so I hope tarot can give me answers.
Shuffling and Dealing
I shuffled those cards like a madman, seriously. I wanted to make sure they were good and mixed. Then, I followed the instructions I found: seven cards, laid out in a specific pattern. It’s supposed to represent different aspects of the situation, like the past, present, future, hidden influences, all that jazz. Honestly, I was a little skeptical, but also curious.
My Card Reading
- Card 1: The Past – The Chariot. It shows the victory in the past.
- Card 2: The Present– Strength. It shows I am strong.
- Card 3: Hidden Influences– The Lovers. It shows relationship influence.
- Card 4: Obstacles – Wheel of Fortune. It shows unexpected turn.
- Card 5: Outside Help -The Hierophant. It shows advice from a senior.
- Card 6: Hopes/Fears -The Star. It shows hope.
- Card 7: The Outcome– Three of * shows looking far.
Interpreting the Cards
So, I laid out the cards, and at first, I was like, “Huh?” Some of them made sense immediately. Others, not so much. I had to pull out my little guidebook and do some reading. It’s like learning a new language, you know? Each card has so many layers of meaning. I used my intuition and guide book for interpretation.
The first card, was The Chariot. It indicates I had good record in the past!
The sencond card, was Strength. It shows I am having the inner-strength!
The third card, was The Lovers. It indicates my love will influence me!
The forth card, was Wheel of Fortune. It indicates unexpected turn will block me!
The fifth card, was The Hierophant. It shows a teacher or a senior will help me!
The sixth card, was The Star. It shows hope.
The seventh card, was Three of Wands. It shows looking far.
Making Connections
The cool part was trying to connect the cards together. It’s not just about each individual card, but how they relate to each other in the spread. That’s where the “stories” part comes in. I started to see a narrative emerge, a kind of path unfolding before me. It wasn’t super specific, like, “You’re going to get a job as a llama groomer next Tuesday,” but it gave me some general themes to think about.
My Takeaway and feelings
Honestly, I’m still processing it all. It’s not like I have all the answers now, but the spread definitely gave me some food for thought. It helped me see some aspects of my situation that I hadn’t really considered before. I jotted down some notes in my journal, just some random thoughts and feelings that came up during the reading. I might try this spread again in a few weeks and see if anything has shifted. Overall, It made feel much better and have more confidence. It’s a surprisingly fun and introspective experience, even if you’re not a total believer in all the mystical stuff.
