Hi everyone! I’m new, and in love with tarot, so I figured I’d breath a bit of life into the thread.
Tonight is a full moon in Scorpio. I personally am going to need to cleanse or charge my cards or something because we have reached an empass for the first time since I’ve gotten them 7 years ago or so. But I found a few spreads specifically meant for this full moon and thought that I’d share them with you guys! I did one very late last night and got… interesting results, to say the least.
So when I did the pull pictured above, I thought for sure they shouldn’t all be in the reversed positions… And then I started reading them (still kind of a newbie after all these years) and by the second card threw my hands up and said “okay, I’m listening!” Anyways, I only recently started including reversals in my readings, and it has created more nuance in my readings. How do y’all feel about using reversals? Does anyone have one of those nifty circular decks? I always love seeing artwork on tarot decks, so what is everyone’s favorite cards? If you don’t know, what are your ‘birth’ cards? (If you don’t know how to find out, I can provide a tiny tutorial, just let me know.)
Oooooh these look good!! Thank you for posting here, I’ve been feeling so guilty for not using my tarot cards latley (life ) but will use these spreads as an excuse to wipe the dust off my cards!!
My year card is Wheel of Fortune which represents a growth year. I wish I had this in mind from the beginning because reflecting on what has happened its 100% what I would call a growth year. Knowing this now though I will use that knowledge to keep shaking things up and keep my energy and creative flow going for my future endeavors. Many thanks to the original poster @Connielass
So the other night during the Lunar Eclipse I thought it would be a nice idea to do a little spread for myself. I always like to sit and reflect on my messages before I share them with others and I think that I’m ready to share this message
So I did my shortened version of the Celtic Cross,
Self: Seven of Pentacles
Trouble: Ace of Chalices
Hopes: Three of Wands
Fears: Ten of Swords
Past Influence: Knight of Wands
Future Influences: Knight of Chalices.
More than happy for people to weigh in on what the think, but I’m pretty sure I’ve got the message out of it that I needed to hear.
So instead of using the lovely spread you shared, I got really really angry and upset about something today and asked for advice.
I have issues communicating with people in a way that conveys how I need conversations to happen for me to feel validated and understood. So I asked how I could become better at communicating. I was told to take my feelings out of it, like don’t get your feelings hurt by someone being rude. It’s on them if they are rude, and you don’t have to take it to heart. You’re doing all of the emotional labor if you are upset by how someone talks to you, but you don’t tell them how you feel or how they can do better. So tell them when it happens and then it’s more evenly split, even if it does end up upsetting you.
Anyway, I thought it was some of the best advice I could get, so I thought I’d share. Hope y’all are having a lovely day!
I kinda get that vibe too. Maybe it’s because the Magician holds a “true neutral” or perhaps “chaotic neutral” vibe – doing what they want for their own purpose. There’s a bit of mischief in there. You never know what to expect from such a person (entity?).
I’ve been meaning to float this idea for a while. Would anyone be interested in adopting some decks?
I’ve been going through my collection and there are some that just don’t speak to me anymore that I would love to gift to good homes. If folks are interested, I’ll put together a list with links and pictures.
No worries if not, this is just the largest collective of Tarot enthusiasts that I know.
Visited the cutest bookstore cafe in Boston last weekend and absolutely had to take these beauties home with me…featuring Jane herself as the Magician/King of Clubs

Trident! They do serve drinks (beer and wine, I think?), and have a good menu.
