Have you ever fretted over making an important decision? Have you ever wondered how a trusted friend or advisor might help you better know yourself? Or, maybe you just want to have better self awareness, a greater knowledge of what makes you do the things you do? Reading Tarot cards can help you do just that!

As a solitary practitioner of Wicca one of the constants that I live by is to everyday know myself just a little better. I learned how to read Tarot cards and use the meanings of Tarot cards on a daily basis as a meditation tool to do just that. Know myself better. Know Thyself! It is a precept of my philosophy for living and a Wiccan Rede.

I know most people view the Tarot as a way to tell the future. We ask, “what will happen now”, “what should I do next.” Wow, we are so ready to give up our free will, our control over the course of our life’s events. Take back control. Learn to read Tarot, TODAY!

Well, before you think I am going to tell you the Tarot is all bunk…hear me out. Reading Tarot cards CAN help you discern the future, a future chosen by you based on your knowledge of yourself. Reading Tarot cards CAN help you decide what to do next, again utilizing the self knowledge you gain by creating a story based on the cards in front of you by developing your ability of interpreting Tarot cards.

As a graduate of psychology, I believe that we look at imagery in a way that makes sense to us. We bring our own interpretation to the images we look at every day. In this way the Tarot helps you discover yourself by providing a context and an impetus for all that stuff lurking around in your subconscious. I am not about to go all Sigmund Freud on you…but think about it for a minute. Have you really thought about it?

The meanings of Tarot cards are tied to the imagery and symbols of each card that once put in your personal context will start you thinking about certain personality traits, biases and value judgments personal to YOU…that mean something to YOU.

This is how we create our future! We apply our traits, our biases and our value judgments to the problem in front of us…and usually we do it unconsciously! We make a decision and we do not even know why! So, when you stop to think about those things and analyze how this fits within the context of your question about “what will happen next” and “what should I do next” you will begin to see that the answer has been with you…INSIDE YOU…all this time. See how reading Tarot cards will help you be more self aware of the answers hidden inside YOU!
