Okay, so, today I wanna talk about my little adventure with celestial tarot. I’ve always been kinda into stars and horoscopes and all that, and tarot cards seemed cool too. So, when I saw this deck that combined both, I just had to try it out!
First off, I gotta say, these cards are gorgeous. I mean, they’ve got all these beautiful illustrations of planets, constellations, and just general cosmic vibes. It really feels like you’re holding a piece of the universe in your hands. They are totally different from the Rider-Waite Tarot deck, I have ever used.
Now, I’m no expert, but I did a bit of reading before I started. I learned that the Major Arcana cards are linked to the zodiac signs and planets, which I thought was pretty neat. For example, The Fool is the first card and is believed to be the most influential, positive and powerful one. And the Minor Arcana suits represent the four elements – you know, fire, water, earth, and air. It’s like astrology and tarot had a baby, and it’s this deck.
I decided to start simple. I set up a quiet little space in my room, lit a candle, and just focused on my breathing for a few minutes, you know like setting intentions. Then, I shuffled the cards while thinking about a general question I had about my life right now. Nothing too specific, just like, “What do I need to know at this moment?”
- I pulled three cards and laid them out in a simple past, present, future spread. I know some people do way more complicated spreads, but I’m still learning!
- The first card was some planet thing, I use the booklet coming with to check what it means, and the booklet said it represents new beginnings and embracing change. Which, honestly, kinda resonated with me because I’ve been feeling a bit stuck lately.
- The second card, the present one, was linked to water and emotions. The book said something about trusting your intuition and going with the flow. Okay, I can vibe with that.
- And the last card, the future one, was all about some constellation, and it symbolized finding your inner strength and overcoming challenges. I am not sure what kind of challenge I have to overcome.
Honestly, the whole experience was super chill. It wasn’t like I had some major revelation or anything, but it felt good to just take some time for myself and reflect. Plus, looking at those pretty cards just made me happy. One thing to keep in mind is that don’t use the cards in anger, malice, nor if you feel upset, jealous, spiteful or any other kind of intensely negative emotion. I don’t even read when I am drunk.
I think I’m gonna keep practicing with these celestial tarot cards. It’s a fun way to tap into my intuition, learn more about astrology, and maybe even gain some insights about myself along the way. Who knows, maybe one day I’ll be a tarot pro! But for now, I’m just enjoying the journey.
Astro-Curious?
If you’re into this kind of stuff, I’d say give it a try. Just remember to keep an open mind and have fun with it! Tarot is a tool for self-discovery, not some magic fortune-telling thing. At least, that’s how I see it. And those celestial cards, they are my choice for sure.
