Alright, let’s dive into this, shall we? I got into tarot reading a few months back, and it’s been quite a ride. The other day, I was messing around with a new deck I’d picked up—a really beautiful, traditional Rider-Waite set. I was feeling a bit stuck on a decision, so I thought, “Why not let the cards have a say?”
I’ve heard a lot about using tarot for “yes” or “no” questions, but I’ve always been more into the open-ended readings, you know, the ones where you lay out a bunch of cards and try to piece together a story. But this time, I just needed a simple answer. So, I took a deep breath, shuffled the deck, and focused on my question.
Now, I’d read somewhere that The Hierophant card is a big one for “yes” or “no” questions. It’s all about tradition, spiritual wisdom, and sometimes marriage or commitment. They say if you pull it upright, it generally means “yes,” and if it’s reversed, it’s a “no.” Sounds straightforward, right?
So, I cut the deck and pulled a card. And guess what? It was The Hierophant, standing tall and proud in the upright position. According to what I’d read, that was a clear “yes.” I gotta say, it felt pretty validating. I mean, the card seemed to be saying, “Yeah, buddy, you’re on the right path. Stick to your traditions and what you know is right.”
But I didn’t just stop there. I believe in the whole “trust, but verify” thing, especially when it comes to something as mystical as tarot. So, I decided to pull two more cards to see if they’d add any more color to the situation. I figured a three-card spread might give me a bit more to chew on.
The other two cards were interesting—they weren’t as direct as The Hierophant, but they seemed to support the initial “yes.” One was about moving forward, and the other was about finding balance. So, taken together, the cards seemed to be saying, “Yes, move ahead, but do it thoughtfully and keep things in balance.”
Now, I’m not saying I’m gonna make life-altering decisions based solely on a tarot reading. But it did give me a bit of a nudge. It felt like the universe, or whatever you wanna call it, was giving me a thumbs-up. It’s like when you flip a coin, and deep down, you realize which side you’re hoping for before it even lands. That’s kind of what this felt like.
So, I went ahead and made my decision, feeling a bit more confident and aligned with what I guess you could call my “spiritual” side. Whether it was the cards, my intuition, or just a bit of good old-fashioned self-reflection, I felt good about it. And that’s what counts, right?
I’ll keep playing around with these “yes” or “no” readings. It’s a fun way to mix things up and maybe get a different perspective on things. Who knows, maybe The Hierophant will pop up again and give me some more divine guidance. Until then, I’ll just keep shuffling along and see what the cards have in store for me.
