First or New Deck- What do I do now?

By

If you missed the first post, welcome to Tarot 101-Gypsy Style.

First step is to clear your cards.  You’ll need a white candle, sage (if you have some) and your intentions.  **Tip bring your crystals out and lay them around you and your cards.

Find a sacred spot to lay your cards out allow. Light your candle and sage, with peace on mind-slowly run the sage of your cards (laid out). Think peace, clear thoughts, and cleansing while your run the sage over the cards.  If you have the crystals around you and the cards, feel them cleanse the cards. Imagine in your mind that the crystals are giving your cards a new life, giving them light in them.  Feel the calmness.  When you are ready blow out your candle and then you are ready for the next step.                                          Second step is to connect with your cards. If you just cleared your cards, this is a good opportunity to connect with your cards.   Lay them out, hold them, see them, feel them.  There are many ways to connect with your cards.  You will know how to best connect with them. Some of the ways I have connected with mine is to play with them, spend each day with one card. (yes 72-80 cards is a lot of days but your connection with each will be a strong bond)   Sleep with them next to you at night. I have heard some put them under the pillow once a week to regain connection.

Last-the third step- Learn your cards.  There are usually a book with each deck. Study it like its your bible. It will give you the insight and information you need.  However, don’t let the artist who made the cards  be your only vision of that card. Once you have connected with your cards you will be able to read them as you internally feel they mean.   IF you decide to read for others and not just yourself- learn what each set means.  Astrology, life, and other aspects will be able to help you give your person a better, deeper understanding of your reading.

*Find a way to wrap your cards to protect them.  -box, silk, material- whatever calls to you. This saves your cards for longevity, others energies, and darkness that surrounds us.

That’s it for now, any questions or comments please don’t hesitate to comment me or email me at the email provided. I am always up for conversation and love to help anyone I can gain a better understanding.

Tarot 101

I want to share a little deep insight on tarot reading.  Some things I am going to explore with you is how to handle them, how to read them, and tips/tricks of connecting with your deck.  Today is about how to pick your deck.

Are you a first time reader curious about tarot? Are you drawn to the world of mystics?

The tradition says that someone is to give you a deck but in the modern days finding your own can be just as wonderful. Where do you start? Where in the world do I find the right one? Which deck is right for me?

There is no right or wrong reason in the questions above. Here are some ideas to help you start your path.

Research the types of tarots, meditate on them, and find what calls to you.  Find your local mystic store or if you have a large book store (books a million carries a variety). Look at the colors, the art, the writing on the case, see what calls to you the most.Walk around with a couple decks that call to you in the store. See which one falls, or is the heaviest for you. The one that falls put back and then you’ll have your new deck.  Still can’t make a decision? Think about it for a couple days and come back.

You always have the option of going online for your deck. I personally like to hold, to connect first but everyone is different. My first teacher recommended the Rider-Waite deck for beginners. I have a mini Rider-Waite deck on hand. Even though it wasn’t my first deck it really is a good choice to have on hard or complicated readings. (will get into that on future post)

If you have a community store near you that does tarot classes, I highly recommend it.

—–ONLY YOU WILL KNOW WHICH IS RIGHT FOR YOU—–

Till next time* Namaste my friends.

If you had a symbol what would it be? What symbol, what creature, or item matches you??

I have always been close to unicorns, fairies and hummingbirds that are nature oriented. But symbol is still a mystery.. To be continued after some meditation on the subject.

June Reading

Hey guys, so tonight I really felt a calling to do July’s tarot reading but it turned out to be June’s reading. Before we start, let me explain to you how I do my readings.

Every reading is different, they might be the same layout or different. I don’t usually read my cards upside down as negative. To me they mean a focus card. However, sometimes that natural instinct tells me that it’s the opposite or negative.

Tonight I pulled 6 cards. Arranging from top to right and bottom left to right.

Six of wands Temperance Page Of Wands

Knight OF Wands Knight OF Cups Ten of swords

When I first pulled six of wands I felt success, and as August pulls right around the corner, we are seeing the achievements of our first harvest. So be proud of where you have come from so far this year.

Temperance tonight felt like there was an unbalance between family and friends. Find your connection with your partner or those you are struggling with. Find that partnership in your life again, reconnect to regain your balance.

Page of wands was a card of energy and emotion. I feel as if there are arts and crafts all around me but although I seek them, my mind doesn’t let me. I feel this card has a very feminine energy to it. Guys,gals get those girls a new coloring set, find some yarn or even a new hairstyle for your lady or friend. Let her release and relax , by helping her obtain her inner creativity for she deserves a piece from her harvest.

Knight of wands, I almost laughed when this card came up. I feel a young man, a young energy who is adventurous,and generous. Keep your arms open to those young who only ask to serve this month. For those young knights will once be kings in the years to come. Maybe give them a small job, mow the yard, help the elderly across the street. Be generous and thankful.

Knight of cups, Prince Charming… or is he? Again I feel some masculine to this card. He is all but perfect. He trolls around with his diamonds and gold but underlies much darkness. Be careful of this one. Be open and loving but be cautious. This one isn’t telling the whole truth.

Ten of swords, this card makes me want to cry. I feel sorrow,loss, broken when I touch this card. I feel as if someone near will not be telling the truth, they’re deceitful. This will lead you to feel helpless. Don’t let this person take you down with them. They’re not meant to be your friend or in your life if they can repeatedly cross your boundaries.

Let’s talk about magic

Before I begin,

If you are new or curious Of my world please contact me and I’d be happy to give as much resources as I can to help you understand.

So let me explain the picture. This was taken at 2 A.M.. I was in search of a clearer light on some things in my life.

The picture shows a crystal, a obsidian arrow head, my tarot cards, my pointer, my pendulum and the paper.

Each object has a particular importance of what I was doing. My pendulum (the purple stone on the chain) is my guide, it points to which answer I need,

My crystal and obsidian gives me even energy of balance, protection and clarity. (Watch for the posts about stones to learn more)

My tarot card and Pointer (the spiral looking pen) gives me a second option to answer or a direct answer if I needed it. In which this time I didn’t.

Now to the paper. The paper holds four main parts: the triangle, the words, and paper itself.

The triangle stands for balance. The words, yes no or maybe give me the option of my answers. The word intent gives the energy the meaning of the question I ask out loud (or internally).

Now the paper itself. I usually use salt or some sort of dirt to make my triangle. However, it was 2 A.M. and I wanted the least amount of mess I’d have to clean up.

I took this picture to show you that it doesn’t matter what you use for your tools. It only matters your intent, your comfort ability and confidence in your own spirit.

Until next time, Namaste my friends. Much light and love.

Na.. I’ll keep this one short for you till tomorrow.  For now I leave you with a simple passage:

“You are only what you create, so create a unique, master piece of light to shine through the world.  For you are the light, and with you all things are possible with the whole you.  Dive in, breath, and shine your light”.   By Me 🙂

 

Namaste my friends, much light and love.
