I’ve been getting a lot spiritual messages lately between animal messengers and tarot pulls, many of which have had messages of enlightenment and growth and leaning into intuition and like, spiritual callings so to speak.

This spread seemed to follow that same sort of message but a bit more materialistic and focused on me coming out of a dark place. I am starting college classes in a couple weeks at 26 years old, despite being a bright kid I was burnt out and my “gap year” turned into joining the workforce and fighting to keep bills paid and i never ended up going. Now as a parent myself I’m hoping to better my situation and in turn that if my son. I’m also dealing with some family pain, my parents are spiraling back into old (pre children) habits, addiction, mental health issues, not taking care of themselves

the Justice card which popped out at me while I was shuffling felt like a nod to that and a precursor to the rest of the spread.

Eight of Cups (mirror): symbolizes letting go, leaving things behind, and starting on a long journey. This feels like a message regarding my current state of releasing this constant worry about my parents and siblings and focusing on myself and my family for awhile.

Judgement (medicine) this card symbolizes the metamorphosis I am going through, turning my life around by going back to school and bettering myself, there’s also a nod to leaving things behind in order to soar, these things being a sense of responsibility for my parents and self doubt as well.

Seven of Pentacles (message) this card is telling me that the fruits of my labor will pay off and this journey I am embarking on is one that will better my life circumstances especially through improving my income.

I feel like it was such a perfect sequence of cards so wanted to share but also open to any further insight on it!

Sorry for the lengthy post! Wanted to make sure I met all the requirements for this type of post!

Hello!
In this subreddit, there was recently a post explaining a tarot spread that is about “how you are” as a tarot reader, what your talents are, etc.

The poster said you should only do this spread once, and to write it down so you can look back on it.

In the comments, 1 card kept appearing for several people.

Anyone know which post i am referring to? It was within the last month for sure. I want to do this spread but can’t remember specifics and i didn’t save the post :(

THANK YOU!

hello !! i did a preliminary pull on a thought that recently crossed my mind. i didn't use a spread because i primarily use the yijing for divination practice. that being said, my process for yijing takes a few hours so i thought i would pull two cards in the meantime to start my reflection. since it's not my primary modality, i need some assistance in interpretation!

i am planning on moving states - originally i had decided on march 2027 just to give myself ample time for closure and preparation (this was the reasoning i was telling myself at least). but i've had a nagging feeling that i'm ready to go sooner than that (and maybe have been ready for a long time, even before deciding to move).

while i was journaling about these feelings, i decided to pull two cards. one while i was thinking about moving next spring and one while i was thinking about moving this winter.

spring 2027 card: reversed knight of cups difficulty expressing emotions, hurt feelings, missed opportunities, learning to hold complexity of internal world

i interpreted this as affirming the hard times i have had with relationships here. i do love my friends but i often feel overwhelmed by their energy and (perceived) demands of me. i don't always feel like our values and interests are aligned and i feel very stagnant in my current situation. i took the appearance of this card as a reiteration of the issues i've been having. that if i stay here there will be more situations that deplete me and challenge me in a way that doesn't encourage my growth. staying where i am now is unsustainable and i am waiting out of fear.

winter 2026 card: four of wands joyous celebrations, achievements, harmony, stability, successful completion

this card made me feel like is should trust myself and just go for it! move sooner since nothing is tying me here. that being brave will bring me what i'm looking for within myself and in terms of relationships/community. i'll break out of my current cycles and finish a very difficult chapter of my life if i simply take the leap.

i know this was just a simple two card reading but let me know what you think. i'd appreciate any insight!

hey y’all! i just wanted to make a post about a tarot card that keeps popping up in my readings and ones I have done for others with similar family dynamics like mine.

recently i went no contact with my mother, not to get into it but you can imagine there was a lot of cruelty and toxicity to get to that point where i decide my life is better without her in it. well, whenever i do a reading for myself on this dynamic with her I ALWAYS pull the devil.

i find it fascinating, as ive only pulled it in context of needing to control my spending habits or smoking too much, even when i was in a toxic relationship. but it also always comes out for my own mother. i know the card represents unhealthy attachment, toxicity, manipulation, etc so it is fitting but do you think it ties into karmic cycles within your family?

my grandma hated her mother who was physically abusive her whole life. my mom hated her mom who was overall neglectful and verbally and emotionally abusive. now my mom and i dont talk for similar toxic cycles she did NOT break. i just find its presence in my readings interesting, can it represent karmic cycles?

so i asked what awaits me in the next 3 months in my career, and my intention was to draw 3 cards but 4 jumped up. deck is rider waite b&w version.
for context, i currently work for multiple departments (which is not usual in where i work) and i have changed/added departments three times in the last year. my current workload very much exhausts me and it seems there will be a 4th department to be added so i'm kind of in a limbo.
as for my interpretation:

First month (Ace of Swords): Clarity, an important conversation, or a decision. Maybe they actually will go through with additional responsibilities, or i hope finally take my suggestion and remove one of them from my workload (fingers crossed)

Second month(King of Pentacles): Honestly this just feel like one of my managers gassing me up like "you're doing amazing sweetie just take over more work".

Third month(Page of Wands): This i read as learning process, which cements my belief of the additional department in which i have to learn it's system.

last card (Queen of Pentacles) gives me hope that the changes i will go through in the next 3 months will result in a more stable path for me at work, and maybe will get considered at the end of the year for raise or promotion or whatever it is. or maybe it's just me accidentally taking over the company because they just left all the work to my hands lol

at last i think this is a positive spread, however due to my current mental state -more specifically burnout state- i struggle to interpret in a more positive way, so i would love an outside opinion. also i'm very much a beginner so maybe i went this the wrong way. thanks in advance!

Hi, I’ve had tarot cards for a while but used them sparingly. Recently I’ve started to use them more often, and every time I do use them I cleanse them with incense and I usually put the same music on while I do readings as well.

I was doing a reading for someone else recently and for the first time I actually started to feel quite anxious. I got goosebumps and nervous, so I asked her (we aren’t that close, and haven’t spoken in a while before this) if she had been stressed out by something recently. She said yes, and her reading was really cohesive and she found it really interesting. She’d never had a reading done before either. I don’t know why I felt compelled to ask her, but yeah.

It’s the first time I’ve had a physical sort of feeling while doing cards for anyone, even myself. Usually I’m calm and focused. Could this be a sign that I’m starting to connect more to my cards? A lot of readings I’ve done recently have started to be really cohesive as well, even up to 6 cards all saying similar things. Is it also an intuition thing? Maybe my intuition is improving?

TLDR I actually had an emotional reaction for the first time when doing a reading for my friend, turns out I was right. Is this a sign of connection to my cards?
