Gourmet Tarot, that’s what they call it these days. Sounds fancy, ain’t it? Like them city folk talkin’. Food and cards, who woulda thunk?
Gourmet Tarot Cards
Back in my day, we used regular playin’ cards. Diamonds was money, hearts was love, all that stuff. Now they got gourmet tarot cards with pictures of food on ’em. What will they think of next?
They say these cards can tell your future. You ask a question, like “Will I get rich?” or “Will my boy finally settle down?” Then you shuffle these gourmet tarot cards, lay ’em out, and they supposedly tell ya somethin’.
How Does This Tarot Thing Work?
- First, you gotta get yourself a deck. I seen ’em online, gourmet tarot deck for beginnners, they got all kinds.
- Then, you think real hard about what you wanna know. Like, “Will my crops do good this year?” or “Is that no-good neighbor gonna keep lettin’ his chickens in my yard?”
- You shuffle them cards, cut the deck, do all that fancy stuff they show ya in them books. I reckon it’s like stirrin’ a pot, gotta get it all mixed up good.
- Then you lay ’em out in a pattern. They got different ways to do it, some simple, some look like you’re buildin’ a whole darn house outta cards.
- Then you look at the pictures and try to figure out what they mean. Each one’s got a different meanin’, like them old dream books my mama used to have.
They say each card got a meanin’. This gourmet tarot thing, they use pictures of food. Like, a picture of a big ol’ feast might mean good times comin’. A picture of an empty plate, well, that might mean you’re gonna be hungry, I reckon. It’s kinda like how if you got a bad stomach ache you could be in for a bad day. Or if your knee is hurtin, then the bad weather is comin. I think.
Tarot for Beginners
Now, I ain’t no expert on this tarot for beginners stuff. But they say it’s easy to learn. They even got them books that tell ya what each card means, so you don’t gotta guess. It’s like when you get one of them newfangled appliances, it comes with a book tellin’ ya how to use it. Although, I usually just fiddle with the buttons until it works, no need for a book.
They say it’s good for findin’ yourself, this gourmet tarot reading. Like lookin’ in a mirror, but instead of seein’ your face, you see your insides. Sounds kinda spooky if you ask me. I heard it’s like talkin’ to your gut, but through pictures. I always say, you should listen to your gut, it usually knows what’s right. Unless you ate somethin’ bad, then maybe not. I once ate some bad taters and my gut was tellin’ me all kinds of wrong things.
Tarot Card Reading, they call it
This tarot card reading, some folks do it for money. They set up shop and you go in and ask your questions, and they tell ya what the cards say. It’s like payin’ someone to read your palm, but with cards instead. Like a fortune teller, but without the crystal ball, although I guess they could have one if they wanted to.
Some folks, they just do it for fun. Like a game, but a game that might tell ya somethin’ important. Like, “Will I win the lottery?” or “Will my husband finally fix that leaky faucet?” Important stuff, ya know?
The Mastery Guide to Tarot
I saw this thing online, The Mastery Guide to Tarot. Sounds serious, like you’re gonna be a master of somethin’. Maybe you could even teach them city folks a thing or two about life. Like how to grow your own food, or how to make a quilt outta old clothes. Things that really matter, ya know?
But this tarot, is it useful? Maybe. I guess it all depends on what you believe in. Some folks swear by it, others think it’s just a bunch of hooey. It’s like plantin’ by the moon, some folks do it, some don’t. My mama always said, “If it makes ya happy, it ain’t hurtin’ nobody.” So if these gourmet tarot cards make ya happy, then go for it, I reckon. Although, I still think regular playin’ cards are just fine. You can play poker with ’em, and that’s a lot more fun than lookin’ at pictures of food and tryin’ to figure out your future, if you ask me.
These youngins and their new ways. Back in my day, we didn’t have no gourmet nothin’. We ate what we grew, and we were happy with it. And we didn’t need no fancy cards to tell us our future. We just lived it, one day at a time.
But I guess times are changin’. And maybe this gourmet tarot is just another way for folks to find their way in this crazy world. If it helps ’em, then good for them. Just don’t forget the simple things, like a good meal with family, or a sunny day in the garden. Those things are worth more than any card can tell ya, I reckon. I’d pick a good tater over a fancy card any day.
Well, I’ve rambled on long enough. Time for me to go tend to my chickens. They don’t care about no gourmet tarot, they just want their feed. And that’s somethin’ I understand.
