Okay, so, let me tell you about this little experiment I did with tarot cards, specifically about figuring out time frames with the High Priestess card. I’ve always been a bit skeptical but also super curious about tarot, you know? So, I thought, why not put it to the test in my own way.
First off, I got myself a tarot deck. Nothing fancy, just a standard one I picked up online. I wanted to see if this whole tarot thing could give me any real, tangible answers about time. Like, if I asked about an event, could it predict when it would happen? That was the big question for me.
I started by shuffling the deck, trying to clear my mind, as they say. Then, I focused on a specific question: “When will I finish that project I’ve been putting off?” It was a real question, something I genuinely wanted an answer to. I pulled out a card, and guess what? It was the High Priestess. Now, from what I’d read, she’s all about intuition, the unseen, and things taking their sweet time. Not exactly a clear timeline, right?
But I wasn’t going to give up that easily. I decided to track things. I made a note of the date I pulled the card and wrote down everything about the project—what needed to be done, how I was feeling about it, you name it. I used a simple notebook for this, nothing too complicated.
Over the next few weeks, I kept working on the project, or rather, I kept thinking about working on it. And every few days, I’d check in with my notebook, jotting down any progress or lack thereof. I noticed a pattern. Whenever I felt stuck or unsure, I’d think about the High Priestess and her mysterious vibes. It was like she was a reminder to trust my gut and not to rush things.
Here’s where it gets interesting. Around the third week, I had a bit of a breakthrough. I finally figured out a major hurdle in the project, something that had been bugging me for ages. I noted this in my journal, of course. And it hit me: maybe the High Priestess wasn’t about giving me a specific date but more about the process, the journey of figuring things out.
- Week 1: Pulled the High Priestess. Feeling overwhelmed by the project.
- Week 2: Slow progress. Lots of procrastination. Thinking about the High Priestess and her message.
- Week 3: Breakthrough! Started to feel more in tune with the project’s needs.
By the end of the month, I hadn’t finished the project, but I was way closer than before. And I realized something. The High Priestess, in my little experiment, seemed to represent a time frame of roughly a month, or a lunar cycle, which makes sense if you think about her connection to the moon and all that mystical stuff.
My Realization
So, what did I learn from all this? Well, first, tarot is more complex than it looks. It’s not just about predicting the future; it’s about reflecting on your current situation. And the High Priestess? She taught me that sometimes the answer isn’t a specific date but a period of growth, introspection, and trusting your intuition. Did it give me a concrete time frame? Not exactly. But did it help me understand the process and timeline in a different way? Absolutely.
This whole thing was a real eye-opener. It showed me that there’s more to these cards than just pretty pictures. They can be a tool for self-reflection and understanding the flow of things in your life. Will I keep using tarot to predict time frames? Maybe. But now, I see it as part of a bigger picture, a way to connect with my inner self and the rhythms of my life.
