Okay, so, today I wanted to mess around with tarot cards. I’ve always been kind of curious about them, you know? I picked the Daughter of Swords ’cause, well, the name sounded cool. I grabbed my deck and cleared off a little space on my desk, making it all nice and zen.
First thing, I just sat there for a bit, looking at the card. The artwork was pretty interesting, this young girl just chilling with a sword. It got me thinking, what’s she all about? I started shuffling the deck, focusing on what I wanted to learn from this card. I wasn’t thinking anything super specific, just, like, “Show me what you got, Daughter of Swords.”
- Pulled the card and, wouldn’t you know it, it was the Daughter of Swords again!
- I figured, alright, let’s dive in.
I started reading up about what this card is supposed to mean. Apparently, she’s all about being quick-witted, having a bunch of new ideas, and just being super curious about everything. Some stuff I read said she represents someone young, maybe just starting out on a new adventure, full of energy and ready to take on the world. She’s not afraid to speak her mind and tell the truth, which I thought was pretty cool. There were other cards, too. Such as the Knight of Swords, a card represents the drive to achieve goals. There were also the Fool card. It is about new beginnings.
Now, this is where I started connecting it to my own life. I’ve been feeling a bit stuck lately, like I’m in a rut. Seeing this card and reading about her energy made me realize I need to shake things up a bit. Maybe I should stop overthinking things and just go for it. Start that project I’ve been putting off, you know?
I spent some time just thinking about how I could be more like the Daughter of Swords. Not in a literal, sword-wielding way, but more in the sense of embracing new ideas and not being afraid to take action. I wrote down a few things I wanted to try, like brainstorming some new ideas for my blog, or finally signing up for that online course I’ve been eyeing.
The Results
Honestly, the whole experience was pretty eye-opening. I didn’t expect to get so much out of just looking at a card and thinking about its meaning. But it really did help me see things from a different perspective. I feel more energized and motivated now, like I have a clearer idea of what I need to do to get myself out of this rut. I think I’ll be doing this more often, maybe exploring other cards and seeing what kind of wisdom they have to offer. It’s a cool way to get in touch with yourself and figure out what you need to do to move forward. And it’s way cheaper than therapy, haha!
