Tarot Tuesday – clarifying cards
I decided, rather than write out a post, to do a video on youtube to get back into the swing of things with my tarot cards.

Tarot Tuesday: the Fool
The Fool is the first card in the tarot deck, marked by the number zero. I have two decks, the classic Rider-Waite Tarot* and the Shadowscapes Tarot*, the second which was gifted to me by my beautiful friend Gabrielle.
The Fool is, for all intents and purposes, a carefree, unencumbered individual beginning his journey through the Major Arcana.

Tarot Tuesday – the Death card
The Death card is often misunderstood in tarot readings. People think, oh now, someone is going to die!
In fact, the Death card is a positive, and often essential card for people who feel stuck or trapped in certain life situations. Think of a job you don’t like, a relationship that no longer serves you, or some other circumstance that makes you feel hopeless, unmotivated or stale.
When the Death card shows up in a reading, the most significant and powerful message it conveys is that of transformation.

Tarot Tuesday – Two of Swords and some charm jewelry
The Two of Swords in conjunction with the Page of Wands are probably the most appropriate cards together for people who are struggling with decisions about important life matters.

Tarot Tuesdays – Wand cards, and an announcement
I mentioned in this video that I pulled some wand cards the other day.
So first, I had this deep, long chat with a friend. I wanted to sit down and make some notes but yada yada it didn’t happen right away. Before I walked away from everything to exercise I took my deck of tarot cards and shuffled while asking this question:
“How do I re-center myself so I can focus on my tasks?”
Two of the three cards that appeared were the Seven of Wands and the Ace of Wands. (The third was the High Priestess but I will leave her this time.)

Tarot Supplement – eerily accurate cards
A funny thing happened while I was shuffling. One card flew out! My instinct was to pick it up and shove it back into the deck, but every professional tarot reader would have my head if I did that. They say the universe, or spirit, are communicating with me and that the wayward card fell out for a reason.
I picked it up and saw it was the Four of Swords. The other cards behaved themselves, so I pulled them from the deck myself.
If you want to see or hear me talk about the cards, click on this post which has a 5-minutes youtube video of me talking about these cards briefly.

Tarot Supplement – Irritated about The Lovers card
Disclaimer: I am not religious, and my observations and interpretations of this somewhat religious tarot card may sound a little crass to those of you who follow a deeply Christian worldview. Comments are welcome but will be blocked if they attack or otherwise offend me or my readers.

The Lovers card in upright position in the classic tarot deck irritates me. At least at first glance.
Tarot Tuesdays – King of Cups
The cards I picked and talked about in this youtube clip (only 5 minutes) last week were the King of Cups, the Hermit and the Tower reversed.
I’m going to address the King of Cups today, and leave the two Major Arcana cards for a separate post at a later date.

Tarot Tuesdays – spreads and questions to ask
Most of my research into the tarot has been done by reading blog posts, articles and similar. You know me as someone who likes the written words, right?
But after a while, I realized I needed a visual. So I turned to youtube.
