Okay, so I got into this whole celestial tarot card thing recently, and let me tell you, it’s been a wild ride. I’ve always been kinda curious about tarot cards, you know, those mystical-looking things with all the different pictures and symbols. But this celestial deck, it just seemed even cooler. So here’s the deal.
Getting Started
First off, I had to get my hands on a celestial tarot deck. I found one online—it looked pretty neat, all these cards with stars and planets and stuff. It had 78 cards, which, I found out, is the usual number for tarot decks.
Understanding the Cards
Next up, I started digging into what each card meant. Man, there’s a lot to learn! Each card has its own little story and meaning. Some are about, like, new beginnings, and others are about challenges or changes. The pictures on these celestial cards are something else, too. They really make you think. There are these Major Arcana cards, which are like the big, important themes. And then there are the Minor Arcana, which are more about everyday stuff.
Doing My First Reading
So, I finally got the courage to try a reading. I shuffled the cards, thinking about a question I had. It felt a bit weird, to be honest, shuffling these cards and hoping they’d tell me something. I laid them out in this pattern I found in the little booklet that came with the deck—it’s called a spread, apparently.
Interpreting the Spread
Then came the hard part—trying to figure out what the heck these cards were telling me. I looked at each card, read up on its meaning, and tried to connect it to my question. It was like piecing together a puzzle. Some cards made sense right away, others took some time. It’s like the cards are giving you hints, and you gotta use your intuition to figure out the message.
Practice, Practice, Practice
I’ve been practicing a bit since that first reading. I do a little reading for myself every now and then, just to see what the cards say. I’ve also tried reading for a couple of friends, which was kinda nerve-wracking, but also super interesting. They were like, “Whoa, how did you know that?” and I’m just thinking, “I have no idea, but these cards are onto something!”
What I’ve Learned So Far
- It’s Not About Predicting the Future: At first, I thought tarot was all about predicting the future. But it’s more like getting some guidance or a different perspective on things.
- It’s Personal: The way you interpret the cards can be super personal. It’s like having a conversation with yourself, in a way.
- It’s Fun!: Honestly, it’s just a fun and interesting thing to do. It’s like a little hobby that also makes you think about your life and choices.
So, yeah, that’s my journey into the world of celestial tarot cards so far. It’s been a mix of learning, guessing, and just having a good time with it. I’m still a total newbie, but I’m excited to keep learning and see where these cards take me. Who knows, maybe there’s something to this whole tarot thing after all!
