Managing Difficult Times using the Tarot.

Tarot can be used in a vast variety of ways to guide you through life’s challenges.

Over the past few days, I have talked about how the Tarot helped me make it through the most challenging time of my life.

My marriage was dissolving, my family was being separated and my home displaced. Everything in my world was crumbling and I found peace through my faith in God and His divine guidance through the Tarot.

Tarot 101

The Tarot consists of 78 cards. These cards depict ancient archetypes that are prevalent throughout the human experience. A tarot reader channels messages from the cards, then “reads” the cards to determine their meaning. This is also referred to as the Interpretation.

Where is the Tarot reader channeling the message from?

This is a good question and I think it varies from reader to reader.

Personally, I pray to God during each draw and ask God to guide my hand. I pray to God for guidance and truly believe that I am channeling God’s will. I ask God to guide my Querent to their highest good. As I mentioned in my previous post, God has sent messengers to me so I believe that the Highest Power is with me.

Different issues require different solutions.

When using the Tarot, there are endless spreads and draws you can conduct. Before doing a draw, I ask myself what it is I want to know.

It would be silly to do a 10 card draw when what I wish to know is something as simple as: Should I go on vacation this weekend?

Below I will go over some standard techniques and procedures for receiving accurate messages from the Tarot.

The Daily Draw

Can you do a Tarot draw everyday? Yes! If you’re new to Tarot reading, I would even recommend that you do a Daily Draw to learn the cards.

The Daily Draw is an excellent tool when dealing with a lot of uncertainty. The draw serves as a reminder that each day is a new beginning. Doing a daily draw can help prepare you for the individual challenges each day brings.

When I started reading Tarot, I would draw one card every morning. As I shuffled the cards, I would ask what the theme for the day would be.

Over on my Instagram, I do an Energy Read of the Day drawing one card for each day of the month. Follow me to see what energy each day hold.

The question for the daily draw can be tailored to suit your needs. If you are feeling uneasy, you can ask for advice on how to overcome your day. If you want to know what to expect at work, you can ask about the environment at work. The Daily Draw is a great way to become familiar with the meaning of the Tarot cards and to gain insight on how your day will unfold.

Specific Questions

We’ve all been there, waiting on an answer from someone else. The minutes become hours, the hours turn into days. All the while, we think on the possible outcomes of each decision as we check our phone for a message, just one more time. We go over in detail each life that will be lived depending on the answer. Our lives at a standstill.

Perhaps you are waiting to hear back from a client? Or you are wondering if that date you went on will materialize into something more? Or you are curious if you should sign up for summer classes or wait until fall semester? These questions all have answers that can change your life in varying degrees. What if the agony of waiting for a response could be side stepped?

Whatever the question, the Tarot can help give you some peace of mind. Because waiting for an answer can really drive a person mad.

Past, Present, Future (PPF)

This classic draw covers the past, present and future of a situation. Let’s say you keep having issues at work with your manager. Every time you work with them, some drama happens. You have had enough of the abuse and are exploring your options. In this scenario, you could employ a PPF to see where you stand in your work life.

I like to interpret the cards as: Past (where you are coming from), Present (where you are at) and Future (where you are going). With these three dimensions, the Querent can get a solid idea of what needs to be done.

Monthly Outlooks

Personally, I like to know what is coming. I used to live with surprises, now I prepare for them. Doing a monthly outlook 5 card draw is a great way to see what kind of challenges you will face in the month to come.

Think back on a challenging time in your life. Did you notice that sometimes the same things would keep coming up? Almost as if the Universe was trying to tell you something. Well, it was.

Now you don’t have to be uncertain. You can consult the Tarot and know for sure what issues you need to focus on. Personal growth is an everlasting endeavor comprised of ups and downs. Give yourself a hand up during the tough times by staying alert to upcoming challenges.

Deep Dives

Finding out your boyfriend got a new job in a new city, when you just got accepted to the local University. Contemplating starting your dream business. Discovering suppressed trauma. These are all situations that require deep analysis.

The Celtic Cross is an ancient and powerful 10 card spread that will leave no area of the issue hidden.

I absolutely love the Celtic Cross. When I started out reading Tarot, I could only perform a Celtic Cross draw once every 3 months due to my inexperience with interpretation of the cards. Now, I pull this spread out whenever I encounter a challenge that is unfamiliar.

This spread goes over the issue, the reason why it’s happening, how you feel about it, what the future holds and the outcome of the whole thing just to name a few aspects.

If you have to absolutely know everything about a particular issue, this is the spread for you.

Forewarned is…

Forearmed.

There are times when the cards haven’t said what I wanted to hear. It happened today actually.

No, that job is not right for you.

No, that relationship is not right for you.

No, that career is not right for you.

Although it wasn’t what I wanted to hear, these honest answers allowed me to move on. The foreknowledge allowed me to accept the possibility of not having what I wanted, then make changes accordingly. The disappointment was softened by a refocus of direction.

Disclaimer

The Tarot predicts the future as it stands if we change nothing. We are creatures of free will and in charge of our destinies. If we change one small thing, the future changes. When the Tarot is read, nothing is written in stone.

Is Tarot evil?

Is Tarot evil?
In my experience, no.

This is a big question I get asked frequently: Is Tarot Evil?

According to many religions: yes it is. In my experience: it is not. Ultimately, that is for you to decide.

Religion has borrowed a lot from occult rituals. If you examine the Catholic religion you will find many references to occultism. Easter, the body and blood of Christ and the altar set up are just a few examples.

Catholic Mass Altar Setup

Aside from those facts, religions have also been perpetrators of some horrible abuses from the Spanish Inquisition to the most recent Boston Church scandal. I find it hard to take moral advice from organizations that allow its leaders to abuse children. That’s me though.

Growing Up (TW:abuse)

I grew up Catholic. Weekend mass was the only constant in my young life. I found comfort and stability in the church when I could not find it in my own life. I attended mass, was an altar server and received Confirmation into the Roman Catholic Church. This does not mean I am a saint.

On the contrary, I have strayed on my path. Yet my relationship with God was never so damaged that I stopped having faith.

My devotion to God goes back to being a skinny kid, living in a trailer on a farm in Texas.

My stepdad was a violent alcoholic who enjoyed beating those around him whenever he would drink. It was during one of his rampages that I devoted my soul to God.

I went into my room when I was 6, got on my knees and prayed to God that my stepdad wouldn’t hurt me. I prayed fervently to God, promising to live my life in servitude to It if I was spared the beating.

I was spared and my journey to help further God’s mission began.

Connection to God

From that day on, I had a deep connection to the Highest Power. At different dark points in my life, God even sent messengers to me with messages and warnings.

When I started reading Tarot, I wondered if God would be upset. I wondered if what I was doing was wrong. Recalling the teachings of the church and the words of the congregants: magic is evil.

Then I realized that God has always made it clear to me, when It is displeased with my actions. So I continued to hone my Tarot reading skills.

I have now been reading Tarot for 5 years. In that time, I have pulled myself out of a depression. I have avoided bad business deals. I developed my intuition further. I also began to help others through their difficult periods.

Helping Others

My friends and co-workers heard how I used the Tarot to receive guidance when no one around had any answers. I told them of finding answers to my questions that no one around could relate to.

They listened as I recounted times when my cards warned of shady situations and how those situations ended up manifesting! They were intrigued as I told them how I avoided being caught in a scam.

These stories affected them. They wondered if the Tarot could help them too. But I wasn’t ready to read for others so I waited.

It wasn’t until last year that I started to take on clients.

Since then I have seen people change careers, start new businesses and get control of their lives. All with the guidance provided by the Tarot.

Is Tarot Evil?

I do not believe so. I believe that God wants all of us to use the tools we have available to make the most of our lives.

Ultimately, the answer to the question lies with the individual. Each person must decide what is right for them.

If you are considering consulting a Tarot reader, remember that what you do can remain private. If the only thing stopping you from getting some clear answers to your questions, is other people’s opinions on the method: there is nothing wrong with keeping the reading private.

My Tarot Journey

Iguanas, 30 foot trees and magic: my introduction to Tarot.

Some Tarot readers were gifted their decks by friends or relatives, others sought the Tarot on their own, I needed a Tarot deck for a spell to find an iguana.

Let me start at the beginning of the story.

Have you ever been in a period of your life where a lot of little things start going wrong? Maybe your hours get cut at work? Then your insurance bill goes up a little. Then you hear the car sounding strained. All these small annoyances just harshing your mellow.

I was in a period like that 5 years ago when I discovered the Tarot. My marriage was going through a difficulties. Work was unsteady. My home was in need of repairs. I was feeling a lot of pressure.

Then my iguana ran way.

I had the sliding glass door cracked and she squeezed out. She stood in the backyard 5 feet away from the house.

Every step I took towards her, she would dart further way. Here’s the thing about iguana’s, they are crazy fast! Finally, I lunged at her!

She took off and climbed the neighbors wall. She disappeared into their backyard. 

It was the end of May, in Las Vegas. Being that iguanas are tropical creatures I immediately became distressed. My poor iguana would be exposed to the harsh weather. 

I did what any pet owner would do: I made flyers and went door to door asking if anyone had seen her. No one had.

I could not believe one more thing was going wrong. Out of my frustration, I decided to search for a spell to find my lost pet.

I had never casted a spell before. I had always been interested in magic but never felt compelled to try it. This time, I was ready.

To my surprise, I found a Tarot spell for finding lost pets. I went to my local metaphysical shop and purchased a set of Rider-Waite-Smith cards.

That night, I performed the spell. After the spell was complete, I set my cards aside and went about my business.

The next day came, no word of my iguana. A month would pass, no word of my iguana. Another month passed. Then another month passed. My spell did not work.

Or did it?

In late August 2015, there was a knock on my door. Three young boys stood on my porch excitedly telling me that they had found my iguana!

I quickly put my shoes on, grabbed a towel to carry the iguana and followed them to the tree my iguana was in.

The tree was 30 feet high and my iguana was somewhere around the 20ft mark. Thankfully, the neighbors had a ladder. I climbed up the ladder. At this point, about 15 neighbors had gathered in the street to watch the iguana retrieval. No pressure.

I climbed up 18ft on the shaky ladder and wrestled with my iguana to try and detach her from the tree. After some seriously determined grasping, I was able to carry my iguana back down the tree!

Iggy after the rescue!

So the spell did work!

At this time, I was not yet a fully committed Tarot reader. My deck was mostly there as an ornament.

It wasn’t until my marriage began to dissolve about 6 months later, that I began to use my cards for insight.

The period following this Iguana Caper was the hardest time of my life. It was filled with uncertainty, confusion and sadness. I used the Tarot to navigate my troubled waters and find tranquility. The Tarot offered me guidance and advice when those around me couldn’t understand my situation.

You know how it is, you tell your friends what is going on in your life and they can not relate. It makes any feeling os isolation even more amplified. I found companionship within myself through the use of the Tarot.

I used the Tarot even though it went against my traditional Christian beliefs. I used the Tarot because I felt like Spirit speaks to me through it.

Although my iguana is no longer here with me, my Tarot deck still is. This month I am offering a “Life Check Special” for $10. With this spread, you will find out: where you are at in your life and what you should be doing. For the price of lunch, you can get concrete answers to your questions.

If you can not benefit from this, tell someone who will. There is no reason to remain unsure when tools are available to help guide you to your highest good.

UNBELIEVABLE! What The Future Has In Store For Ghislaine Maxwell!

Predicting the future of human trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell.

Pedophile ring leader and former girlfriend to rapist Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell was arrested on the morning of July 2nd in New Hampshire.

Jeffrey Epstein was a pimp to the world’s elite.

Ghislaine Maxwell was his accomplice.

Since Epstein was “suicided” I wonder if Maxwell will meet a similar end.

I consulted my cards and here is what they have to say.

Shocking! 🤯

1 Month

Ace of Swords Reversed

It seems like she’s going to have some trouble trusting people and maybe trusting the wrong people. There will be a lot of illusions during this time for her.

It is very easy to trust people who are not working in your best interest. In this context, we are not working in Maxwell’s best interest.

She is a pedophile human trafficker. There is literally nothing more vile. So I’m glad she’s going to feel confused and alone. Maybe she’ll understand a bit of what her victims felt.

6 Months

Ace of Wands Reversed

Seems like Maxwell is going to be feeling really weak and experiencing disappointments. Perhaps deals that she made for breaks and leniency, are now off the table.

Her plans to sell out her friends and get a shorter prison sentences were mere fantasies.

They are all going to pay for their crimes.

With her being the first.

A Year

Page of Pentacles

This card signals the appearance of an ally. Someone who admires the subject and is aligned to their cause. A studious person. This is a sign of good luck and a signifier to a “golden opportunity.”

I have to be in honest, I am biased and I do not like the sound of this.

It sounds to me as if someone who is close to her, such as a guard or someone on her legal team is going to really offer their help to her perhaps in a way outside of the public realm.

They could know a person of high influence or power that may be willing to help Maxwell.

This is highly speculative and my own interpretation.

The message is: an ally appears.

Conclusion

It seems like Maxwell is going to feel like she doesn’t know who to trust, followed by a period of failed plans and ending with the appearance of a new ally.

This reading is my own prediction and my own interpretation. Let’s wait and see how this trial unfolds.

An in depth 10 tarot card look at what to expect for the rest of 2020!

The Celtic Cross is one of the most in-depth draws a reader can use. For the querent (the person asking the question), it can be most illuminating!

This has been a crazy year. It doesn’t matter that astrologists knew something would be going down. There is no way we could have been prepared for a worldwide shutdown. As the days get further from Day Zero of the Shutdown, it’s only natural to wonder where we are headed.

I have been using the Tarot along with my Faith in God, to guide my life for the last 5 years. Why should today be any different?

Here is Eternal Tarot’s Celtic Cross Outlook for the remainder of 2020:

Full Reading:

Celtic Cross Outlook Rest of Year 

  • Heart: 8 Swords Reversed
    • Preparing for change and the actions followed by big decisions. Using courage to move past fears. It is time to move forward even if you are unsure about the future. Certainty is an illusion as we can never be prepared for everything that can happen. Know that when we need help, help is available. All you have to do is ask.
  • Cross: Ace of Cups
    • New beginnings, usually within the realm of love. Great time to make friends. General goodwill in the air. Feeling good about life!
  • Root: Knight Swords
    • Physical, spiritual and emotional energy at a peak. Positive news on the way. Feelings of accomplishment. The right person coming along. Felling swept of your feet with good news.
  • Past: Queen Pentacles R
    • Finding joy in the everyday and beauty in the simplicity of life. The extra time we have had to appreciate the world around us. In reverse, we are asked to pay attention to our home lives.
  • Attitudes & Beliefs: Queen of Cups
    • Love compassion and concern fro ourselves and our fellow man. Representing a female with lighter hair. The women in your life fully support you. There is a lot of female energy on your side. Treat yourself with love and compassion, you’re worthy of it.
  • Future: 8 Wands R
    • Patience. Are you using your personal energy efficiently? Are you making forward movement? If you’re feeling guilty about the past: what good can that do? Will it change it? Forgive yourself and maintain connection to your conscience.
  • You: Knight Pentacles
    • Good news in regards to money will be arriving! This good news is the result of hard work and laborious efforts. In other words: you earned it bayby! Make sure that you are taking care of the details in your work.
  • Environment: Hierophant R
    • Confusion about the right thing to do. This indicates needing to do more research and find out more information before making a decision. This card can also indicate being misunderstood. If you’re just a soul whose intentions are good….then so what.
  • Hopes & Fears: 10 Swords
    • Being wary of who and what to trust. When this is the case, rely on someone you care about: you. Trust yourself when you have no one to trust.
  • Outcome: 5 Pentacles R
    • The appearance of concrete new prospects. Moving away from fear and insecurity with renewed confidence. Trust all good feelings at this time. The time has come to rejoice.

Extract of Reading

aka What does this all mean?

Knowing it’s time to move on. 

New beginnings and feeling good about life!

But having a hard time acknowledging blessings due to worry and fear of the unknown. 

Positive news and fortunate meetings have given us reason to celebrate the things we are presently overlooking. 

We have recently learned how to appreciate the small lovely details of life during our time at home due to the coronavirus. 

We are feeling more love towards ourselves and towards our community. Surrounded by loving feminine energy. 

We will need to take note of how efficient we are being with our energy. Self-forgiveness with lots of patience will be important in order to heal. 

The hard work you have been putting in will soon bear fruit. 

There may be some confusion and misunderstandings in your life about what is the right thing to do. Ask more questions. 

All in all: the outlook is good! Things will be looking up! Keep counting your blessings and focus on the good!

Love,

Eternal Tarot

The Celtic Cross

This classic and in depth spread can reveal many aspects to a situation. Learn how to perform this draw.

As a practitioner of cartomancy and energy work; I believe in individualism. I will explain what the Celtic Cross Spread is, what it means to me, and the method that I employ when doing this reading. If you are familiar with a different way, that’s groovy too. Life is so vast, not one path is the path for all. 

The Celtic Cross is seen in A. E. Waite’s “The Pictorial Key to the Tarot” published in 1910. Mr. Waite claims to have learned about the spread from private individuals throughout England, Scotland and Ireland according to Juliette Wood in her essay “Secret Traditions in the Modern Tarot: Folklore and the Occult Revival.” 

What I certainly know, is that this spread is popular! It has some variations here and there but mostly sticks to the same components. Such as: 

  1. Heart of the Matter.
  2. Cross or Blockage
  3. Root
  4. Recent Past
  5. Attitudes and Beliefs
  6. Future
  7. You
  8. Your Environment
  9. Hopes and Fears
  10. Outcome

10 cards to really see every aspect of a question. Nothing left hidden.

This spread is excellent when you want to know how something started, why it started, what will happen, what you can do and how it will end. In other words, when you want to know everything.

10 Questions To Ask The Tarot

10 Questions To Ask The Tarot

You want to get a reading. But what should you ask?

When I started reading Tarot, I would come across the same decision. Usually. I would do a General Past, Present, Future (PPF). Anyways, let’s say there are a few things you really want to know about.

The Tarot will give you an answer. That’s a given. So you can ask anything really.

But! Will the interpretation make sense? Will it help guide you to your highest potential? That’s a whole other blog post.

10 questions you can ask the Tarot:

  • Will you ever see them again.
  • Should you go in to work today?
  • Are right for you?
  • Is this the time to start my business?
  • Should I go on this vacation or not?
  • What should I look out for?
  • Should I trust them?
  • How is my mom/dad/friend doing? (general wellness checks ONLY)
  • Should I get a pet?
  • Is that person interested in me?

Remember, you can always do a general reading for guidance too.

Draws: Past, Present, Future

Learn Tarot: Past Present Future Draws with a Free PPF for the week of May 11th, 2020.

The Past, Present, Future (PPF) Draw is one of the simplest and most effective draws. As the name states: it speaks on the past, the present, and the future (if nothing is changed).

Right? You get it. But what does that mean?

I like to look at it as

  • Past= Where you are coming from.
  • Present= Where you are at?
  • Future= Where you are going?

What I love about the PPF is that it gives you a great temperature check and shows you were you need to place your focus.

The idea of the future being set in stone is scary and not true. You are blessed with Free Will. The smallest well intentioned change will have a big effect. Believe.

The drawing pictured is for my followers and my readers for the week of May 11th, 2020.

Past: 8 Pentacles Reversed

Feeling unmotivated to make money. Losing sight of long term goals. This also indicates a time of asking for help and guidance. Take your time while working on your goals, no need to rush.

Present: 2 Swords Reversed

Feeling out of touch with your emotions. Be alert; there are untrustworthy characters around. Double think commitments. This energy is precarious. People who make promises and do not keep them are not to be trusted.

Future: 3 Cups Reversed

Pleasant reunions. Enjoying community and friendship. A great time to work on our bonds so we do not go on “alone”. Reach out to the important people of your life in the best way you can.
