I signed up for an online Tarot course. We did the first session and the cards talk to me. It’s in fact rather strange and I sure did not expect that. It might turn out differently in the end, but right now it looks like every card has some kind of archetype assigned to it. It feels like I ask a question and the cards I draw, answer with their quality.
A simple example. The instructor gave the initial question: what is in my belly. I draw “Le soleil”, the sun, which is the quality of the Manipura Chakra. Next question: “What is in my heart” and I get “La justice”, which for me has the quality of equality. I do strive for that. Next up for my head: “L’imperatrice”. My head surely reigns my life and I have to conscientiously let go.
It feels like, the cards want to talk to me through the symbols I already know. Well, of course it’s not the cards talking. It is my subconscious wanting to break free. I told the instructor something like that. I don’t think he quzte got, what I meant. But he told me, to look for what is on the cards. I’m not sure this is, how I’ll read the cards in the future, but something incredible happened afterwards:
It never was so clear for me to see, how the universe works. But with the cards, it is so obvious (to me): I ask a question (or, more generally, ask something off the universe) and if I don’t let my head interfere, my body is drawn to the answer. My eyes show me on the cards, what is important for the answer. Then, thoughts and emotions arise and if I trust myself enough to follow them and keep my head turned off, I get an answer. An answer, that is compiled from many pieces of information.
It is so incredible, because this answers the fundamental question about why our lives are the way, they are. Because our subconscious runs the show. Our head can want, what it wants. If we don’t know deep down, that we are worthy of it, we will never get it. Our subconscious will always guide us the way it is programmed to do. We just won’t see the other possibilities. They will never rise up into our consciousness.
This is, why magic works. We re-program our subconscious and it will bring the possibilities to our attention, that ultimately change our lives. Incredible.
