I've been listening to what you guys 8 00:00:34,360 --> 00:00:36,720 Speaker 1: have been reaching out with for ideas.

So for this week's episode, UM, 11 00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:49,280 Speaker 1: I want to talk about tarot cards. I really enjoy them. 12 00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:51,239 Speaker 1: They've been super helpful for me, and I think that 13 00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:54,279 Speaker 1: there's a lot of misconceptions about tarot cards. First starters, 14 00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:58,920 Speaker 1: you're not conjuring satan mom, Like, I was totally not 15 00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:00,800 Speaker 1: allowed to do so many things like that growing up 16 00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:05,319 Speaker 1: because um, they were Satanic. And also I wasn't allowed 17 00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:07,720 Speaker 1: to have Cabbage Patch kids because they were Satanic. And 18 00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:11,080 Speaker 1: I was not allowed to watch The Little Mermaid because 19 00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:13,800 Speaker 1: it was over sexualized. So we don't really trust my 20 00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:16,240 Speaker 1: mom's opinion on those things anymore. We don't, we don't, 21 00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:18,880 Speaker 1: we don't. I don't think she has a good judgment 22 00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:22,000 Speaker 1: and what is corrupt and what is not. So um, Yeah, 23 00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:24,119 Speaker 1: Tarot cards are one of them, and I was always 24 00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:27,080 Speaker 1: really interested in them. And they're not like some like 25 00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:33,160 Speaker 1: crazy voodoo you're gonna cast a spell and curse yourself 26 00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 1: with these things. Like the death card doesn't actually mean 27 00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:40,720 Speaker 1: anything negative. Um, there's just so many misconceptions about it. 28 00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:43,039 Speaker 1: Like the death card is about rebirth more than it 29 00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:44,480 Speaker 1: is death, and it's about how you have to let 30 00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:46,080 Speaker 1: go of some things in order to make room for 31 00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:50,120 Speaker 1: new ones. And that's a beautiful thought that is so 32 00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:54,520 Speaker 1: necessary and it is not like a disastrous thing. So um, 33 00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:57,400 Speaker 1: I want to share a couple of my favorite cards 34 00:01:57,440 --> 00:01:59,560 Speaker 1: and like what you should do if you're looking to 35 00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:03,600 Speaker 1: get yours is Tarot deck. And yeah, so there's like 36 00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:08,560 Speaker 1: a thought that people have about tarot cards that you 37 00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:11,600 Speaker 1: should be gifted your first pack. I don't think that's 38 00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:13,840 Speaker 1: super matters, but what you should do when you get 39 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:15,760 Speaker 1: your first pack and find one that you connect with, 40 00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:20,760 Speaker 1: I personally really like to um, I really like to 41 00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:22,520 Speaker 1: like go see them in person and go to a 42 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:25,120 Speaker 1: store and you can just search spiritual shot. But they 43 00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:27,920 Speaker 1: also have a lot of bookstores these days, both both 44 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:30,440 Speaker 1: local ones and like Barnes and Noble and all that, 45 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:32,400 Speaker 1: and they have some really really cool ones by like 46 00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:35,320 Speaker 1: smaller artists, and it's just a great place to get started. 47 00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:37,760 Speaker 1: You can order them online. I actually have some packs 48 00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:40,200 Speaker 1: that I found from Etsy that I really like. I 49 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:43,320 Speaker 1: have one that's like the o G first ever Tarot, 50 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:45,280 Speaker 1: but it's a holographic version and that's one of my 51 00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:49,040 Speaker 1: favorites for everyday readings because it has really clear illustrations 52 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:53,560 Speaker 1: that you can find meanings in that you need to um. 53 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:58,280 Speaker 1: So the tarot is just a great place just like 54 00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:03,320 Speaker 1: find Honestly, it's mostly answers to questions that you already have, 55 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:09,080 Speaker 1: but it's about like just taking the time to meditate 56 00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:12,440 Speaker 1: and ask the universe for questions. It's a prayer. You 57 00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 1: can use it in any form of religion that you like, 58 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:19,200 Speaker 1: participate in anything you believe in. All tarot is is 59 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:22,560 Speaker 1: divination in the sense that you are calling on a 60 00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:24,840 Speaker 1: higher power and using this as a medium to be 61 00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:28,560 Speaker 1: able to speak to them. So Jesus would not dislike 62 00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:32,680 Speaker 1: tarot cards, I mean, And also like with like tarot 63 00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:35,200 Speaker 1: tradition and that kind of thing, like there's a lot 64 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:38,920 Speaker 1: of like saints, and there's a lot of um Christian 65 00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:42,960 Speaker 1: stuff woven in through it, and it's really beautiful and 66 00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:46,600 Speaker 1: I really, I really love the connection. But you have 67 00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:51,480 Speaker 1: um the major arcana, which is the story of like 68 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:57,240 Speaker 1: basically the hero's journey, and this journey matches up to 69 00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 1: the journey of Jesus Christ watches up to you know, 70 00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:06,600 Speaker 1: um Lord of the Rings is it's Pilgrim's progress. It's 71 00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:09,200 Speaker 1: like all of these different stories that were very familiar 72 00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:11,520 Speaker 1: with and they fit in the pattern. So it starts 73 00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:14,120 Speaker 1: with the Full, which represents new beginnings. They use full 74 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:18,040 Speaker 1: more like child versus like idiot um. And you go 75 00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:21,320 Speaker 1: through all of these cards and it ends on the world. 76 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:25,680 Speaker 1: So you're starting off as like this wee babe and 77 00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:29,800 Speaker 1: going through life and learning all these different trials and 78 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 1: uh you know, lessons, and then you end up becoming 79 00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:34,359 Speaker 1: one with the universe and that is the goal for 80 00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:48,560 Speaker 1: all of us, right. So it's really beautiful. But I 81 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:50,400 Speaker 1: wanted to share my favorite cards, so I actually have 82 00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:53,360 Speaker 1: this one tattooed on me. It's from the Soul Cards deck, 83 00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:57,760 Speaker 1: which is really a great deck. UM. It's illustrated by 84 00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:01,279 Speaker 1: Cocarina and it's just really beautiful. But it's not a 85 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:04,599 Speaker 1: good first deck because it's only two colors. It's really 86 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:08,160 Speaker 1: abstract images. You if you're learning the meanings, you're gonna 87 00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:12,359 Speaker 1: want to see like how illustrated they are, Like the 88 00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:16,560 Speaker 1: meaning of like a card in the tarot has like 89 00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:21,599 Speaker 1: you know, there's a woman who is tied to a post, 90 00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:24,120 Speaker 1: but she's actually not, like the chains are broken, so 91 00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:26,720 Speaker 1: she's only keeping herself captive, and like you're going to 92 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:29,520 Speaker 1: find that meaning in a more traditional deck versus this one. 93 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 1: But I have that version of this card tattooed. And 94 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,800 Speaker 1: the reason I got it tattooed is because I kept 95 00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:38,760 Speaker 1: pulling this card every single time I was doing a 96 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:41,280 Speaker 1: reading while I was making Open Book, and it was 97 00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:43,839 Speaker 1: called the Hermit. And I had never been alone in 98 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:47,000 Speaker 1: my life, Like I literally went from living in my 99 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:50,920 Speaker 1: mom's house too having a roommate for like six months, 100 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:52,479 Speaker 1: and then I moved in with a guy, and up 101 00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 1: until I was twenty four years old and started making 102 00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:57,719 Speaker 1: Open Book, I had not been on my own. I 103 00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:00,120 Speaker 1: had not been single, I had not lived alone. I 104 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:02,200 Speaker 1: had not done any of those things. And just the 105 00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:05,840 Speaker 1: solitude of it was equal parts terrifying but beautiful and 106 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:08,160 Speaker 1: so the meaning of the hermit like basic keywords are 107 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:11,480 Speaker 1: soul searching, introspection, being alone in inner guidance. And I 108 00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:13,440 Speaker 1: would pull this because I write down all of my 109 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:17,400 Speaker 1: like tarotum readings, like in a little journal, which I 110 00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:19,880 Speaker 1: highly recommend because you can like look back and have 111 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:22,560 Speaker 1: some like you know, hindsight on it, and it's it's 112 00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:24,720 Speaker 1: really cool to see how it ends up lining up 113 00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:29,240 Speaker 1: with what actually happens. Um, Like the time that I 114 00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:31,320 Speaker 1: did a terror reading about this guy that I was seeing, 115 00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:33,880 Speaker 1: and uh, the guy who out of it is about 116 00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:37,240 Speaker 1: and um, the first card I pulled was like absolute 117 00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:40,920 Speaker 1: loss and destruction turned back like a can and I 118 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:43,840 Speaker 1: was like, no, it's fine, And I went back and 119 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 1: read it. I was like, oh my god. But um, 120 00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:49,160 Speaker 1: the hermit stands alone on the top of a mountain. 121 00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:53,360 Speaker 1: The snow capped range symbolizes his spiritual mastery, growth and accomplishment. 122 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:56,280 Speaker 1: He's chosen this path of self discovery and as a result, 123 00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:59,240 Speaker 1: has reached a heightened state of awareness. In his right hand, 124 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:01,240 Speaker 1: he owns a land turn with a six pointed star. 125 00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:04,400 Speaker 1: Inside it is the Seal of Solomon, the symbol of wisdom. 126 00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:06,520 Speaker 1: As the hermit walks his path. The lamplights his way, 127 00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:08,760 Speaker 1: but it only illuminates his next few steps rather than 128 00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:11,160 Speaker 1: the full journey. He must step forward to see where 129 00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:13,200 Speaker 1: to go next, knowing that not everything will be revealed 130 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:15,240 Speaker 1: at once, and his left hand the side of the 131 00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:18,480 Speaker 1: subconscious mind. The hermit holds a long staff, a sign 132 00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:20,760 Speaker 1: of his power and authority, which he uses to guide 133 00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:24,640 Speaker 1: and balance him. So that's like the metaphorical part, but ah, 134 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:28,280 Speaker 1: the more literal meaning is the hermit shows that you're 135 00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:30,400 Speaker 1: taking a break from everyday life to draw your energy 136 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 1: and attention inward and find the answers you seek deep 137 00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:35,440 Speaker 1: within your soul. You realize that your most profound sense 138 00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:37,720 Speaker 1: of truth and knowledge is within yourself and not in 139 00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:40,320 Speaker 1: the distractions of the outside world. You leave behind the 140 00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:42,480 Speaker 1: munday and to set off on a journey of self discovery, 141 00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:45,280 Speaker 1: led only by your inner wisdom and guiding light. Now 142 00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 1: is the perfect time to go on a weekend retreat 143 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:50,960 Speaker 1: or sacred pilgrimage, anything in which you can contemplate your motivation's, 144 00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:53,760 Speaker 1: personal values and principles and get closer to your authentic self. 145 00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:57,880 Speaker 1: So if you want to learn more about Tarot meanings, 146 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:00,840 Speaker 1: go to biddy Tarot dot com, b d d Y 147 00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:04,400 Speaker 1: tara O t a r ot dot com.

They have both like a simple explanation and 150 00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:12,000 Speaker 1: a more in depth one. But I hope that you 151 00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:16,040 Speaker 1: guys find UM find it useful. It's been a really 152 00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:19,280 Speaker 1: really beautiful way for me to just journal and take 153 00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:22,560 Speaker 1: time to meditate. And it's not so much like predicting 154 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:25,920 Speaker 1: the future as it is just finding insight on where 155 00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:29,400 Speaker 1: you're at. My favorite spread to do is just past 156 00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:31,960 Speaker 1: present future. So you just pull three cards. UM. You 157 00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:33,760 Speaker 1: can pull the top three cards at the top of 158 00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:36,840 Speaker 1: the deck after you shuffle it. UM, you can pick 159 00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:39,600 Speaker 1: like lay them, spread them out and like run your 160 00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:40,959 Speaker 1: hand over him and whichever when you feel like you 161 00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:43,480 Speaker 1: should stop on pick that. That's my favorite way to 162 00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:46,320 Speaker 1: do it. UM. But all it is is just you know, 163 00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:49,840 Speaker 1: talking about where you're coming from. So what's happened in 164 00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:52,080 Speaker 1: the past that's led to this moment that you're asking 165 00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:54,360 Speaker 1: the question about where you are in the present, like 166 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:56,520 Speaker 1: what you're currently struggling with the place you're in it 167 00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:59,439 Speaker 1: may be good or bad.
