Okay, so I’ve been messing around with tarot cards for a while now, mostly just for fun and a little bit of self-reflection. But lately, I’ve been thinking about using them to explore, you know, the big L-word: love. So I decided to do a deep dive into using tarot for love questions. Here’s how it went down.
First, I gathered my stuff. I lit a candle to set the mood, grabbed my favorite tarot deck. I shuffled the cards while thinking about what I wanted to know about my love life, but keeping it general at first. I tried to be present at that moment, with no other thoughts.
I didn’t jump straight into the deep end with questions about “the one” or anything like that. I started with some basic, open-ended questions. Stuff like, “What energy is surrounding my love life right now?” and “What do I need to know about myself in relation to love?” I wrote these down to keep track.
The First Reading
- Question 1: What energy is surrounding my love life right now?
- Card Drawn: The Lovers (reversed)
- My Interpretation: Okay, this was a bit of a shocker. The Lovers card, but reversed? It felt like it was saying there might be some disharmony or a lack of balance in my approach to love. Maybe I was focusing too much on one aspect or ignoring something important.
- Question 2: What do I need to know about myself in relation to love?
- Card Drawn: The Hermit
- My Interpretation: The Hermit! This one was telling me to look inward. It felt like a suggestion that I needed some alone time to really understand my own needs and desires before I could make good decisions about love.
Then, I decided to get a bit more specific. I asked, “What can I do to attract my ultimate life partner?” I pulled the card and, wow, it was interesting.
Getting Specific
- Question: What can I do to attract my ultimate life partner?
- Card Drawn: The Star
- My Interpretation: The Star! This is such a hopeful card. It felt like the cards were telling me to stay optimistic, to focus on healing and self-love. It was like a message saying that by being my best self and putting out positive energy, I’d attract the right person.
I kept going, asking more questions like, “Why am I blocking new love from entering my life?” and “What do I need to work on so I can have a healthy relationship?” Each question and card I drew felt like a little piece of a puzzle. The main thing I am focusing on now is how to attract the right person into my life.
The Takeaway
This whole tarot experiment has been pretty eye-opening. It’s not about predicting the future or finding a magic solution to my love life. But I realized It’s more about understanding myself better. The cards are like a mirror, reflecting back my own thoughts and feelings, helping me see things from a different perspective. I think using tarot to ask questions about love has helped me get ready to meet that right person. Or at least I feel like I am more prepared to figure things out. I am going to keep journaling my readings and see how things unfold. It’s definitely a journey, not a destination, you know?
