Okay, so I’ve been messing around with this whole tarot thing lately, and let me tell you, it’s wild. I stumbled upon this thing called “Tarot of Decans” and decided to give it a shot. It’s like a whole other layer to tarot reading.
First, I had to figure out what decans even were. Turns out, they’re just a way of chopping up the zodiac signs. Each sign gets split into three parts, so you’ve got 36 decans in total. Think of it like slicing a pie into extra pieces.
So, I pulled out my tarot deck and started by picking a card just to practice. I got “The Fool” card which is a pretty big deal, you know, new beginnings and all that. It is also the most powerful and influential one. It’s numbered zero, which means it has infinite possibilities.
Then, I had to match up the tarot cards with their decans, and from what I found out they are connected to the zodiac signs and each sign is divided into three parts, each with a specific meaning. Like, each minor arcana card is associated with a specific decan. So, I looked up which decan “The Fool” card belongs to. It was a bit of a rabbit hole, but kind of fun, like a little treasure hunt.
Once I figured out the decan, I started thinking about what it all meant. Like, how does the decan add to the meaning of the card? It’s like adding extra flavor to a dish.
For example, I pulled the three of a suit, the 3 of cups. Threes are all about growth and new stuff, like The Empress card in the Major Arcana. So, pulling this card was like a sign to grow through whatever pain I was feeling.
I also read some stuff about how the imagery of the decans and the tarot cards overlap and sometimes don’t. It’s kind of like they’re speaking the same language, but with different dialects. It’s a pretty trippy way of looking at tarot, to be honest.
I also read a warning of “Sorcerers will have no part of the kingdom — they will be outside with dogs and sexually immoral, murderers, idolaters.” I was like, “Whoa, that’s deep,” and I’m not even sure what it means yet.
I’m still a newbie at this, but it’s been a fun ride so far. It definitely makes tarot readings feel more in-depth. Like you’re getting a secret message from the universe, through the tarot cards and the zodiac. I’ve still got tons to learn, but I wanted to share my experience so far.
I’ve been practicing by doing simple readings for myself and trying to connect the dots. I am planning to practice more and to dive deeper into the meanings. It is like you are figuring out the mysteries of the universe. Pretty wild!
Here’s the gist of what I’ve learned:
- Decans are like mini zodiac signs within the main signs.
- Each tarot card, especially the Minor Arcana, is linked to a specific decan.
- The decan adds an extra layer of meaning to the tarot card.
It’s all a bit confusing at first, but I’m starting to get the hang of it. It’s like learning a new language, but one that’s all about symbols and hidden meanings. It’s definitely opened my eyes to a whole new way of looking at tarot! I think anyone who’s into tarot should check out the decans. It’s a whole other level of understanding.
