I like the tarot.
I’m not an expert, but I sometimes use them to read for clients and to find answers for myself.
To read the tarot well, I believe it’s a combination of using your intuitive sense, understanding the intention of each tarot card and connecting energetically with their client.
In short, TAROT is an art form.
It seems the earliest references to tarot date to the 1440s and 1450s. This is contrary to the general assumption that the tarot are thousands of years old.
The tarot started as a card game. Tarot cards used the standard Italian four face cards—king, queen, knight, and knave—for a total of 56 cards. The fool card was a wild card and there were 21 trump cards.
Tarot is a game of trick taking.
Even though there are many, mostly minor variations to the rules of the game, it hasn’t changed much since the 15th century.
It’s interesting to note that the tarot only became a tool of psychics, fortune tellers and the occult in the 19th century. The current day tarot has nothing to do with the medieval tarot cards.
So, I’ve created this series of short meditations based on the meanings of the Major Arcana as a creative way to share their significance. I’ve set them to music too. I hope you enjoy them.
In the spirit of engaging our spirits with something greater than ourselves, I’ve created a series of short meditations based on the meanings of the Major Arcana from the traditional tarot card deck.
I’ve set them to music too. I hope you enjoy them.
TRANSCRIPT OF THE MEDITATION ON THE SUN CARD OF TAROT
The Sun Card…
The Sun card is all about the self, who you are, and how you cultivate your personality and character.
The sun’s radiance is where one’s original nature can be encountered with safety. Let your light shine.
The limitations of time and space are stripped away, and the soul is refreshed in the sun.
You are temporarily protected from the chaos outside.
Under the light of the sun, life reclaims its primordial goodness, truth, and beauty.
The sun card is one of only two cards in the tarot deck, which is always positive.
It’s as if this card is saying, you can do no wrong. It’s all positive.
The Sun card advises that you have confidence in your natural divinity.
Throw off any cultural conditioning that keeps you from being your authentic self.
Step into the full light of truth and reveal your motives.
Once done, you will no longer give away your power to other people.
There is no need for shame. Focus on the positive and be your real, true, authentic self.
The sun card says, let your light shine. Let it be so.
Let It Be So…
