Alright, so the other day I was feeling a bit curious about what the next year might hold for me, you know? It’s almost my birthday, and I thought, why not try something different this year? That’s when I remembered this thing called a “Birthday Tarot Spread” that I’d heard about. I’ve always been a little bit into tarot cards, not super seriously, but enough to have a deck at home. So, I decided to give this birthday spread a go. I mean, what’s the harm, right?
First off, I needed to get myself in the right headspace. I lit a few candles, put on some chill music, and just sat there for a few minutes, taking deep breaths. Then, I took out my tarot deck. I shuffled the cards while thinking about my birthday and the year ahead, focusing on what I wanted to learn or get guidance on. It felt a little silly at first, but then I really got into it.
I decided to try a simple 3-card spread. I laid them out in a row. The first card was supposed to represent the past year. And guess what? It was a card that actually made a lot of sense! It was all about change and moving on from old stuff, which, yeah, that was pretty much my last year in a nutshell. It was crazy how spot-on it felt.
Then, the second card. This one was supposed to show my current challenges. I flipped it over, and it was the Judgment card. Now, I had to look this one up because I wasn’t too familiar with it. Apparently, it’s all about self-reflection and personal growth. Kind of like looking at yourself and figuring out what’s working and what’s not. Which, to be honest, is something I’ve been thinking about a lot lately. I’m at this point in my life where I’m trying to understand my own decisions and actions better, so seeing that card there was a bit of a “whoa” moment.
- Past Card: It was all about change and moving on.
- Present Card: Judgment – a call for self-reflection.
- Future Card: This one’s about what to expect in the coming year.
Finally, the third card was for the future, like, what the next year might bring. And, I’m not going to lie, it was a pretty positive card! It suggested new opportunities and success. Of course, I know it’s not like a guarantee or anything, but it was still nice to see. It left me feeling hopeful and a bit more excited about what’s coming up.
My Thoughts After the Reading
Honestly, the whole experience was pretty cool. It wasn’t just about predicting the future or anything. It felt more like a moment to pause and think about where I’ve been and where I’m going. The Judgment card really got me thinking about taking stock of my life and making some positive changes. It was like a little nudge to keep working on myself and to be more mindful of my choices. Plus, the hopeful future card just added a nice positive vibe to the whole thing.
So, yeah, that was my little adventure with the Birthday Tarot Spread. It was a fun, reflective, and surprisingly insightful experience. I’m definitely thinking of making it a yearly tradition. If you’ve got a deck of tarot cards lying around and you’re curious about this kind of thing, I’d say give it a shot. You might be surprised by what you discover about yourself!
