The Tarot Underground

Hi there Tarot Friends, Leo Fest is still perking along, with new goodies being added every week. This week's gift is a free-form spread creator. Sunday was the Leo New Moon, with Mercury stationing retrograde the same day. That got me to thinking about how thoughts create reality (the Law of Attraction) and ways to use Tarot to help with the process. How to ferret out stinking thinking, and clear out head trash so your manifestation efforts work clear some head trash with the Daily...

Remote viewing is having a moment right now. If you have a deck of Tarot cards, you can play with some of the same principles without learning an entirely new system. 👁️ The Magician from the deck I created way back in 2013 You don’t have to become a Las Vegas stage magician to learn a couple of really good card tricks. Tarot is the same way (and I’m not implying it’s some kind of trick). You don’t need to learn every traditional meaning, every ritual, every rule and adopt a belief system. On...

A lot of people come to Tarot because they want answers. 👉But maybe one of the deeper reasons, and maybe this is you, is you want life to feel a little less flat and a little more alive. More texture. More surprise. More of those strange little “winks from the Universe.” Think of it as a signal finder The Hermit -found it on Pinterest Lord knows there’s too much noise out there. Even if you limit yourself. There are so many ideas and takes to filter through- and decide how you feel about it,...

You’re in the middle of a Tarot reading. You see something in the cards. You think you know what it’s referring to… but you’re not totally sure. So what do you do? Ask. “Is there something going on with work right now?” “Does this feel more like your relationship, or your family?” “Is there a decision you’ve been putting off?” Newsflash: You do not have to sit there silently trying to psychically determine the correct answer.

Friday night there was some kinda super cell thunderstorm with 80mph wind gusts that literally rattled my windows and, quite frankly, rattled me! A really large limb from the Pecan tree out back snapped my internet connection. It’s Monday as I write this and it’s still out. Another limb from a tree on the side of the house fell on my neighbor’s roof. Luckily it was the tips of the branches and didn’t do any damage. I tried the hotspot on my phone. It really doesn’t work.🤷♀️ So I’m here at a...

The real value of the daily draw in Tarot isn’t to predict your day -It’s creating one small moment where the world stops telling you what to pay attention to. Imagine your attention is like a stream. All day, notifications, headlines, texts, photos, videos… Everybody asking for the click. But at some point during your morning, you pull out your humble Tarot deck and draw a card or two. It’s not just the act of pulling the card or cards - that would be an analog version of the attention...

owl feathers The feather was just outside my front door the other morning. I put it on the altar with the 2 others I have. Keep reading. I saw an interesting pattern in my Tarot pulls for July. When I totaled how often each numbered and court card appeared, then grouped them by frequency, I got: 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 2, 1🤔 Hmmm…. found it on Pinterest Last example- The eclipse today pulsates at 20° Leo. That’s 5° from my natal sun and less than 1° from my son’s natal sun. The lunar...

Hey, if you missed the Three-Card Spread Workshop, I’ve got the recording for you. And here’s the thing I probably should have emphasized more when I first offered it: This is basically how I set up every paid Tarot reading I do. Not necessarily with three cards every time, but with the same thinking process. How do I take someone’s question and figure out what we actually need to ask? What information do I need from the cards? What should each card be doing in the reading? How do I build a...

I think we got bogged down a bit with the Mercury Retrograde in Cancer last month. This month is full speed ahead - almost all Air and Fire. Think blow torches and jet engines! This month is an eclipse month, with eclipses at 20° Leo and 4° Pisces. This month’s Tarot spread is designed to give insight on the twists, turns, and wildfires of August. Let me know what you throw and what you’re “predicting”. We’ll do the best we can with this wild card month. P.S. My Sun is 25° Leo and my...

I bought a brand new washer and dryer when I moved into my house 6 months ago. The dryer has never worked right. Weirdly, when I picked out and paid for the washer and dryer from Home Depot, the order was written up for a different brand altogether🤷♀️. When I noticed it, I decided to let it go. It was the same price. Not worth the hassle of changing it. So when the dryer wasn’t drying, I wondered if I had messed up. Edward Scissorhands as Page of Cups - unknown The house had many other...

I’ve been cutting my lawn by hand with a very small weed whip. That’s okay until you get 5 inches of rain. So instead of cutting the lawn (again), I whipped up these Tarot activities! Activities go from easiest to hardest (in my opinion) Tarot Word Search answer key at the end of this article Court Card Matching Match the court card with the appropriate slogan. My version of the answers are at the bottom of this article. NOTE: we won’t all have the same answers! I’ve included court card...
