Be Your Own Tarot Reader - The 5 Steps

My mission as a Tarot reader is to help suffering human beings help themselves. That's why, if asked, I provide a tutorial on how each of you can become your own Tarot reader. 

Here is the short version. But it is all you need.

Purchase Tarot Deck. Since you are a beginner, start out with the deck most newbies use. That is the Smith-Waite Tarot Deck. On Amazon it costs $17.96. Here you can order. Decks are also available for sale in metaphysical shops such as Strega in Sierra Vista, Arizona. Call those shops ahead and see if they stock the cards.

Seek Access to Guides about Interpretations. There are no absolute interpretations of how to read any of the 78 Tarot cards. That's the strength of this tool for self-awareness by opening the door to the unconscious or what is sometimes called the subconscious. All readings happen through the unique intersection between that particular human being and the universe. 

However, when beginning it can be useful to sample interpretations. A guidebook recommended for beginners is "Kitchen Table Tarot" by Melissa Cynova. On Amazon for Kindle the price is $12.99 and for paperback $14.99.

The internet is another source of information - free. Just key in the title of the card such as "Wheel of Fortune" and add keyword "Tarot." Up will pop interpretations from a number of cultures around the world. 

Surrender. Nothing should stand between you and the universe. That means you have to give up your usual guarded mindset and surrender to the invisible. This exercise allows you to enter that state of letting go:

Imagine a blue blue sky. Look up at it.

Put your hand around the string of a bright yellow ballon.

Let the balloon go. 

Believe in What You Are Discerning from Reading Your Tarot Card. Again, there is no absolute "right" interpretation. Or even a standard one. 

To start the reading you:

Shuffle the cards until you feel they have been mixed up enough

Lay them in three piles, left to right.

To get in touch with vibrations extend hands over the cards.

Choose one or more cards.

Do One-Card Pull Every Day. This is also helpful when you need to get centered. Eventually you can work up to complex spreads such as Past Present and Future. 

If you decide you prefer to have a reading done for you, I am available by phone, email, and Zoom (if you set it up). We can start with the one-card pull.

(Entertainment purposes only. One-card reading for $30. Payment by PayPal or Zelle. Please schedule appointment with Jane Your Tarot Reader at janegenova374@gmail.com or text 203-468-8579.)

Painful Long Half-Life of Trauma: Did Prince William Marry His Mother?

Image
  It was September 6, 1997. A number of psychics such as myself entered a grief trance. We became one with the trauma of Princes William and Harry as they walked behind the coffin of their mother Diana. The pain, I keep picking up, likely hasn’t abated in substantive ways. (Currently, it is agreed, placing them in that forever visual of their personal histories was thoughtless and cruel.) Here we are. It is said that boys marry their mother and Harry seemed to do exactly that in choosing Meghan Markle. Like Diana, she was never going to fit in. There was going to be lots of hurt to go around.  The surprise, though, is that the supposedly less fragile William might also have married his mother in choosing Kate Middleton. We don’t know that, do we? But there is reason to speculate that’s might have been exactly what occurred. Amid the conspiracy theories circling about MIA Middleton (There has been a recent photo op of her mother driving her in car), is this one in the 03-11-24 edi

Yes, There Are Content Workers - Many of Them Are Freelancers

"A majority of workers feel they’re fairly paid, but at the top of the list are independent workers across all industries, according to a recent survey of 2,500 American workers. The findings suggest that while earning what you think you’re worth is important, so is having some power over when and how much you work for the money." -  The Wall Street Journal, June 26, 2023 Today we call them "freelancers." Among them is Paul Chaney whose field is communications. On the all-important LinkedIn Profile , Chaney actually uses that term: freelancer . Not so long ago, those watching his back would have nudged him to go by the moniker "consultant." Recently, Chaney had me as a guest on a podcast about how the over-50 (who, of course, encounter so much ageism), can freelance. It received an award from Media Dimensions. Here you listen to that podcast and perhaps find your own way to freelancing.  Contentment with one's work has become the new American Dream.

The Long Half Life of The Feel-Good (from doing good)

Image
The for-sales could have run on Craigslist for 16 more days.  Then came that Ah-Ha moment. Given the low prices you get for used furniture, even though in excellent condition, why not just donate the barely used innovative bed set, artsy storage chest/prism, snow-removal equipment and karma icons.  I knocked on a neighbor's door. When I described the goodies her face lit up. You bet, she said, her husband would be right down the stairs to bring up their new stuff.  Their five-year-old would tag along with some of her stuffed animals to place immediately in the chest.  That family is delighted. The glow spills over to me. And I need that as I continue to put together the logistics for relocating back to Sierra Vista, Arizona. It's a must move, so soon after coming here to the Midwest.  Those who had heard of me back in AZ have offered me contracts for ongoing tarot reading sessions. The region has three resort areas.  Here there is only one resort area - Geneva on the Lake - and
