Alright, let’s talk about these fenestra tarot cards. I don’t know much about fancy stuff, but I can tell you what I see, you know? Just plain talk, like it is.
First off, they got all these pictures, right? Lots of pictures. They say each picture means something, like, you got your sticks, them Wands, they call ’em. They’re all about doin’ things, gettin’ fired up, you know, like when you’re fixin’ to bake a pie and you gotta get all the stuff together. That’s what them sticks mean, kinda like “gettin’ ‘er done”. They say Wands is for creativity, action, and passion. Sounds fancy, but it just means gettin’ busy to me.
Then you got your cups, them Cups. Well, cups are for holdin’ things, right? Like water, or maybe somethin’ stronger, ha! But these cups, they’re about feelings. Like when you’re happy to see your grandkids, or when you’re sad ‘cause the garden didn’t grow good. That’s what the cups are about, feelings and folks you care about. They told me it’s about emotions and relationships. See? Makes sense, even for an old woman like me. Just plain folks stuff.
Now, the Swords, them’s tricky. Swords are sharp, you know? They can cut you. So, they’re about thinkin’ hard, and facing tough stuff. Like when you gotta figure out how to pay the bills when the crops ain’t good. Or when you argue with someone you love. It ain’t easy, but you gotta be strong, gotta use your head. They call it intellect, challenges. Big words, but it’s just life, ain’t it?
These cards, they tell you stories, see? Like, you pull one, and it’s about somethin’ that happened before. They say the first card symbolises the Past. Yeah, like rememberin’ when your husband was still around, or when the kids were little. Past stuff.
- Wands: Gettin’ things done, workin’ hard.
- Cups: Love, feelings, folks you care about.
- Swords: Tough times, thinkin’ hard, figurin’ things out.
Then you pull another card, and it’s about what’s happenin’ right now, in the present. They say the next card symbolizes the Present. Like, is the sun shinin’ today? Are the chickens layin’ eggs? What’s for supper? That kinda stuff. The here and now.
And they say you can pull more cards, and they tell you about what might happen later, but I don’t know about all that. Seems kinda spooky to me. I just stick to what I can see, you know? What’s happened and what’s happenin’ now.
They got all these symbols on the cards, too. Little pictures inside the pictures, like. They say each one means somethin’ too. Simplified tarot meanings are encrypted in different symbols depicted on each card. That’s what they told me, anyway. Sounds complicated, but I guess it’s like lookin’ at the clouds. Sometimes you see a dog, sometimes you see a house. It’s all in how you look at it.
If you wanna know more, they got these books, they call ’em guides. They say for deeper insight, the ultimate guide to tarot card meanings offers keywords. I ain’t much for readin’ them big books, but some folks like ‘em. They tell you all the fancy meanings for all them little pictures. Me, I just look at the cards and try to figure it out myself. Like lookin’ at the weather, you know? You don’t need a book to tell you if it’s gonna rain.
So, that’s what I know about these fenestra tarot cards. They’re pictures that tell stories, about doin’ things, feelin’ things, and thinkin’ things. And they’re about the past, the present, and maybe even the future, if you believe in that sort of thing. Me, I just take it one day at a time. That’s all you can do, ain’t it?
It ain’t rocket science, these cards. Just pictures and stories. And if an old woman like me can understand ’em a little, then I reckon anyone can.
So don’t be scared of them. Just look at the pictures, and see what stories they tell you. Maybe they’ll tell you somethin’ you already know, or maybe they’ll tell you somethin’ new. You never know. That’s the thing about life, and these cards, it’s always a surprise.
And remember, ain’t nothin’ set in stone. Just ’cause a card shows you somethin’ don’t mean it’s gonna happen for sure. You still gotta make your own choices, do what you think is right. That’s the most important thing, no matter what them cards say.
