My Journey from Childhood Curiosity to Spiritual Mastery
Hey there, beautiful soul! It’s Michelle here, and I’m thrilled to bring you into my world through this blog post. Let’s take a journey back in time, way back to when I was just a little girl—about six or seven years old. I have this vivid memory of hanging out with my mom and her friend while they were pulling tarot cards. At the time, I had no idea what they were doing, but I remember being fascinated. It’s funny how that moment stuck with me, quietly influencing my path even though no one explained what it meant back then.
Fast forward to today, and that early curiosity has blossomed into a profound connection with tarot and astrology. These tools aren’t just part of my spiritual practice—they’re woven into the very fabric of my life. My daily tarot practice isn’t just about reading cards; it’s about healing, intuition, and protection. Every morning, I light a candle, say a protection prayer, and connect with my spiritual team. It’s a sacred routine that grounds me, helping me to navigate whatever the day might throw my way.
The Power of Combining Tarot and Astrology
You know, tarot and astrology are like the ultimate spiritual power couple. While tarot helps me articulate my intuition and guide my daily decisions, astrology adds an extra layer of cosmic insight. Even though I’m still learning about astrology, I love how it deepens my understanding of the energies at play. For instance, understanding the planetary influences during certain tarot readings can add so much depth to the interpretation.
In fact, astrology and tarot are incredibly intertwined. Did you know that each tarot card in the Major Arcana is associated with a specific zodiac sign or planet? For example, The High Priestess is linked with the Moon, symbolizing intuition, secrets, and the subconscious. By aligning tarot readings with astrological transits, you can unlock deeper layers of meaning and guidance.
Mastering My Intuition Through Tarot
I’ve had my intuitive gifts for as long as I can remember—since I was born, really. But it wasn’t until about five years ago that I started using tarot as a tool to channel that intuition into words and actions. This wasn’t an overnight process; it took time, practice, and a lot of trust in myself. Tarot became the bridge between my inner knowing and the tangible world, helping me answer questions that had been brewing in my subconscious for years.
One thing I’ve learned is the importance of balancing structure with intuition. My daily tarot readings are a mix of routine and spontaneity. While I have certain spreads I like to use, I also allow my intuition to guide the process. Sometimes I pull a single card; other times, I might do a full spread depending on what feels right in the moment. It’s all about tuning into the energy around me, a practice that’s deeply influenced by Neptune’s dreamy influence.
The Spiritual Path: Blending Science, Psychology, and Astrology
My journey didn’t stop at tarot. I’ve also dived into the world of quantum physics, psychology, and of course, astrology. I grew up in a Catholic household, and later transitioned to Christianity, but over time, I found myself embracing a broader spiritual path. This path includes a belief in God, but also an openness to the mysteries of the universe that can’t be fully explained by traditional religion.
Astrology, for instance, has been a revelation. Understanding my natal chart helped me make sense of who I am and why I experience the world the way I do. It's fascinating how the movements of celestial bodies can influence our personalities, relationships, and even the challenges we face. Combining these insights with tarot has allowed me to approach life with a sense of purpose and direction that I never had before.
