Okay, so I got into this whole tarot card thing a while back, and today I wanted to try out something specific: the “Magician Yes or No” tarot reading. I’m no expert, just a regular guy who finds this stuff interesting, you know?
First things first, I got my tarot deck out. It’s nothing fancy, just a standard deck I picked up online. I shuffled the cards a bit, trying to clear my mind and focus on the question I had. I kept it simple – a clear “yes” or “no” question that’s been on my mind lately. For me, the question was, “Will I finish this project by Friday?”
Now, there are a few ways to do this, as I learned from some quick online reading. You can draw one card, three cards, or even more. I decided to go with the three-card draw, because, why not? It felt more involved. I like the three cards method the best, you know?
So, I laid out three cards face down, then flipped them over one by one. I’m mainly looking for the Magician card here, since that’s the one that’s supposed to give a strong “yes” in this kind of reading. It signifies action, power, and making things happen.
- The first card I flipped was the Tower, reversed. Not the Magician, and honestly, not a great sign in general. Kind of throws a wrench in things, symbolizing some sort of disruption.
- Next, I flipped the Star, upright. This one’s more positive, representing hope and inspiration. Still not the Magician, but it felt like a good balance to the first card.
- Finally, the third card. I flipped it over and it was the Ten of Swords. Also not the Magician card. It represents endings, failure, and loss.
I sat there for a minute, looking at these three cards. No Magician. Now, from what I’ve read, if the Magician had shown up, it would have been a pretty clear “yes.” But it didn’t. Instead, I got a mix that felt… well, complicated. I tried to interpret the cards together. The Tower reversed might mean I’m avoiding some necessary change, the Star suggests I still have hope, and the Ten of Swords, well, maybe it means an end to my current approach. I only got negative and a little bit neutral cards, so it was a no.
So, no clear “yes” from the Magician today. But it did get me thinking. Maybe I need to change my approach to the question I’m asking. Maybe the answer isn’t a simple “yes” or “no” right now. Maybe I have to do something different. Maybe I cannot finish this project by Friday.
This whole tarot thing, it’s not always about getting a straight answer. Sometimes, it’s more about the reflection it sparks. I’m going to ponder on these cards a bit more. I guess that’s the real magic – not just the cards, but what you do with the message you think they’re giving you. So, I have to change my plan and take more actions. I will try to do this again next week!
