Okay, so today I wanted to mess around with some tarot cards, and I pulled the “3 de espadas” card, also known as the Three of Swords in English. Let me tell you, it wasn’t exactly a walk in the park.
First off, I set up my little tarot space. I’ve got this cool cloth I lay out, some candles for ambiance, and my trusty deck of cards. I shuffled the deck while thinking about what’s been going on in my life lately – mostly work stress and some drama with friends. I cut the deck, like I always do, and pulled the top card. Boom. Three of Swords staring right back at me.
- The Setup:
- Cool tarot cloth
- Candles for vibes
- My go-to tarot deck
- The Shuffle:
- Thinking about life stuff
- Work stress and friend drama
- The Pull:
- Cut the deck
- Pulled the Three of Swords
Now, I’ve pulled this card before, and it’s never a good sign. It usually means heartbreak, betrayal, or some kind of emotional pain. I took a deep breath and started to think about what it could mean in my current situation.
I spent some time journaling about it, trying to connect the card’s traditional meaning to my life. I wrote down all the things that have been causing me stress and sadness. It was kind of a rough process, like picking at a scab. But you know what? It felt necessary.
- Recognizing the Card:
- It means heartbreak, betrayal, pain.
- Reflection:
- Journaling about the card’s meaning.
- Connecting it to my life’s stressors.
- Realizing it might be a tough but necessary process.
The image on the card is pretty intense – a heart pierced by three swords. But as I looked closer, I started to see it as a symbol of releasing pain. Like, the swords are going through the heart, maybe to let all the bad stuff out. So I decided to do a little meditation. I closed my eyes, pictured the image of the card, and focused on letting go of the negativity I’ve been holding onto.
After meditating, I felt a little lighter, like I had acknowledged the pain but also started to release it. It wasn’t a magical fix, but it was a step in the right direction. I even did a little exercise. It made me feel better.
- Meditation:
- Visualizing the card.
- Focusing on releasing negativity.
- Feeling a sense of lightness afterward.
Wrapping Up
Pulling the Three of Swords wasn’t fun, but it was a good reminder that it’s okay to feel pain and that it’s important to process it in a healthy way. I’m not saying I’m completely over everything, but this little tarot session definitely helped me start the healing process.
