Are you ready to embark on a journey through the mystical realms of Tarot and unlock the secrets of the cards? Tarot is a powerful divination tool that has been used for centuries to gain insight, guidance, and clarity on life's mysteries and challenges. Whether you're new to Tarot or a seasoned practitioner, understanding the basics of the cards and their meanings is essential for tapping into their wisdom and harnessing their magic. Here's a beginner's guide to the Tarot and the meanings of the cards:
🃏 The Structure of the Tarot Deck: The traditional Tarot deck consists of 78 cards divided into two main categories: the Major Arcana and the Minor Arcana. The Major Arcana consists of 22 cards that represent archetypal energies and significant life events, while the Minor Arcana consists of 56 cards divided into four suits—Wands, Cups, Swords, and Pentacles—that correspond to different aspects of daily life.
🌟 The Major Arcana: The Major Arcana cards represent major life themes, spiritual lessons, and transformative experiences. Each card carries its own unique energy and symbolism, offering insights into the universal patterns and forces at play in our lives. Some key Major Arcana cards include The Fool (new beginnings, spontaneity), The Lovers (love, relationships), and The Tower (sudden change, upheaval).
💫 The Minor Arcana: The Minor Arcana cards reflect the day-to-day aspects of life, including emotions, thoughts, actions, and material concerns. Each suit has its own elemental correspondence and represents a different aspect of human experience. For example, Wands represent fire (creativity, passion), Cups represent water (emotions, intuition), Swords represent air (intellect, communication), and Pentacles represent earth (material resources, physical manifestations).
🌿 Interpreting the Cards: When interpreting Tarot cards, it's important to consider the imagery, symbolism, and intuitive impressions that arise during a reading. Pay attention to the emotions, thoughts, and sensations that the cards evoke, and trust in your intuition to guide you towards deeper insights and understanding. While there are traditional meanings associated with each card, Tarot is ultimately a deeply personal and intuitive practice that invites you to trust in your own inner wisdom.
🔮 Practice and Patience: Like any skill, learning Tarot takes time, practice, and patience. Don't be discouraged if you don't grasp the meanings of the cards right away—keep practicing, studying, and experimenting with different spreads and techniques to deepen your connection with the cards and refine your intuition.

this is in no way in defense of ariana grande’s ex husband or whatever bc idk anything but between this and joe alwyn, everyone acts like the only reason fame could interfere in a relationship is if the guys masculinity is too fragile to handle someone being more important than them. like that could be true but like having to take security everywhere you go, even though it is necessary, is a very big demand and definitely changes the kind of life that you live
like, let’s not pretend that being the significant partner of a very famous person doesn’t require you to live a certain kind of life that might not work for somebody.

highlights of telling my sister about the mcytblr sexyman wars
“mcytblr? that’s a dumb name call it something else”
when i told her about how the dsmpers lost most of our competitors to hermits: “to be fair, hermitcraft has a lot more tumblr sexymen than dsmp. dsmp people are just normal sexymen”
when asked to define a tumblr sexyman: “they have to be relatively unconventional, they have to have baggage, they have to be traumatized. they can be any age. they don’t have to be male.” me: “you’re nailing it so far.” her: “i know i am.” “they have to be morally grey. that’s definitely not everything but i don’t know what else to say.”
she also pointed out that the final round could be on superbowl sunday and then we were both disappointed when we realized it won’t
Wait, hold on. Can you explain Joss Whedon gave Tony Stark evil autism?
(Enjoying your takes on twelve's era btw)
youtube
this absolutely smoking gun of a clip from age of ultron's commentary where joss whedon says that he sees tony stark as being on the autism spectrum which he also thinks lends itself to his """"tony is the villain" thesis""" (as opposed to steve rogers, of course). this is very terrible and yet morbidly hilarious to me, an autistic person who really likes tony stark
