Use Tarot cards as teachers

Image via WikipediaIf the quantum physicists are right, then we all have everything we need within us. How to reach this inner knowledge is the question.

With the Tarot cards, you have 78 supporters and advisors at your service. You have your own cheering squad which will help you to do whatever you want and need to do. Not only that, but they will help you to do it quickly and well. And they work cheap.

For example, on days when I have a full schedule, I look to cards like the Chariot and the World to help me through it. The Chariot because it is inbuilt energy, control and determination. The World, so that I will use all the tools at my disposal, and so that the Universe will help by turning all my traffic lights green.

This really works. You can try it yourself. Take the Chariot and the World from your desk. Take several deep breaths, closing your eyes as you do so. Open your eyes and look at the two cards. Look at the cards as a whole, and also look at the details. Imagine the Chariot life-size, right in front of you. Then imagine the Chariot moving towards you and becoming a part of you. Do the same with the World: with your eyes closed, imagine the World life-size, and then merging with you.

How do you feel? As you were doing the visualization, you may have had definite bodily sensations. If you didn’t, don’t worry about it. Whatever happened is the right thing for you.

Another way to use the cards is to get instruction from them. Let’s say that your sales figures for this month have been less than stellar. It’s the final week in the month, and you want to boost your sales so that they exceed your monthly quota.

Which of the cards could help you with this?

You can choose one of the cards face up: just look through the deck until you find a card which looks as if it may help. Or, choose a card face down. Shuffle the deck, and trust that whichever card comes up is the card that you should be working with now.

When you’ve selected your card, look at it for a few moments. Then close your eyes, and imagine the card life size. Now, in your imagination, walk into the card. Just walk right into the scene on the card. Interact with the figure on the card. Tell the card inhabitants what is happening in your life, and explain what you need. The figure, or figures, will give you advice.

Note: if the figure advises you to do anything which you consider morally wrong, challenge the figure. Ask for the Sun to appear. When this happens, the figure will always transform. If it doesn’t, stop your meditations for the day. The figures which appear in your meditations are personifications of your own psyche, at least initially. When you’ve been working on yourself for many years, you make contact with elements which are beyond your own psyche: they are definitely not parts of it.

In this way, each of the card will act as an advisor to you. That’s not to say that each time you enter the cards that you will meet the same people—you will develop your own group of advisors, who will become your spiritual friends. Our time, this group will change, as you transform into the person that you were meant to be.
