Okay, so today I tried something new, which was giving tarot cards a shot. I’ve seen people doing it and always thought it looked kinda cool. And since I have a couple of things on my mind about my job and some money stuff, I figured, why not? Let’s dive into it, shall we?

I started by just figuring out what I wanted to ask. I mean, you can’t just throw any question at these cards, right? I’ve read that tarot isn’t really about predicting the future like some crystal ball. It’s more about reflecting on what’s going on right now in your life. So I thought hard about what’s been bugging me.
My job’s been kinda “meh” lately, and I’ve been wondering if I should start looking for something else. And then there’s the whole money situation—who doesn’t want to make more money or just feel more secure about it? I wrote down a couple of questions that felt right. Like, “What steps can I take to improve my career prospects?” and “Should I stay in my current job or look for something else?” For the money part, I went with, “What can I do to manifest more abundance in my life?” and “How can I get out of my current financial rut?”
Then came the actual reading. I found a quiet spot, shuffled the cards while thinking about my questions, and then picked a few. Each card I picked had a whole lot of stuff to think about. Some were about taking action, others about being patient. It was pretty wild how much they seemed to relate to what I was asking.
Reflecting on the Cards
The cards didn’t just spell out what I should do, but they gave me a lot to chew on. Like, one card might be about looking inward and another about reaching outward. And I guess that makes sense—figuring out your career and finances isn’t just about what’s happening outside; it’s also about what’s going on inside you.
What I Got Out of It
- No Magic Answers: First off, tarot didn’t give me a step-by-step guide on what to do next. But it did make me think about my situation from different angles.
- It’s a Mirror: Just like I read, tarot is like a mirror. It showed me I have some choices to make, and maybe I’ve been avoiding them.
- Feeling Inspired: I actually felt pretty pumped after the reading. Not because I got all the answers, but because I felt more in tune with what I want and what I might need to do to get there.
So, that was my tarot experiment. It was definitely interesting, and I think I’ll try it again sometime. Maybe next time, I’ll ask about love and relationships. But as someone mentioned online, “Tarot can show you how to open up to more love in your life—whether it’s love for yourself, for others.” So, maybe there’s something to that, too. I’m not saying I’m a tarot expert now or anything, but it was a cool way to spend an afternoon and get some food for thought. And hey, who knows? Maybe this will nudge me to finally update that resume and start networking a bit more. It’s worth a shot, right?
