Scariest Tarot Cards . . . DEBUNKED!

Recently, some of my reader colleagues at Portlandia Fortune Tellers and I made a reactions video of the recent horror movie Tarot (follow my new Instagram to be the first to see it!)

We knew it would present the Hanged Man with a noose and the Death card as pure mortality, which is tiresome. It also tried to creep out other archetypes like the Fool, High Priestess, and Magician, which at least felt creative.

Today I want to take a closer look at the scariest cards to get in Tarot.

Tarot as Shadow Work

People are often scared of tarot.

Oooo, the Devil card! The Death card! The Tower Card!

I respect their fear. It’s natural to be intimidated by images of suffering, and it’s also reasonable to be uncomfortable with tarot.

Tarot is a shadow work, bringing into the light that which is key to your personality . . . but perhaps you prefer not to look at.

So, what is Shadow Work?

Make Halloween Meaningful

It’s time to figure out what you’re going to be for Halloween (if you haven’t already).

Some of us enjoy a clever wordplay joke as a simple costume. Others may learn some dance moves to be their best Olympian Aussie breakdancer.

I prefer to focus on how you can relish this opportunity to express some darkness within.

Halloween can be healing. It’s an opportunity to look at the parts of you that reflect the Moon card’s disturbing hidden secrets.

Reflecting on Achievements: A Tarot Perspective

This hand is here to high five you. And me.

In the last 3 months, I have been going going going nonstop. Even though I am tired, I get a thrill out of the productive gains forward.

Today, I ask you to take a moment to simply acknowledge what you achieved this week or this month from the perspective of each of the 5 suits of Tarot.

Simplify Your Choices

In the age of information overload, we are all juggling a lot. It seems like everyone is expected to perform smoothly in a myriad of ways.

Today, consider how you can make a little wiggle room to feel more at peace with the to do list. Here are some ways to approach this by using the Tarot suits.

Art Is Life

As we head into the fall season, let’s begin to dream of what indoor creativity we get to play with soon.

Many of us underestimate the importance of including artistic projects in our life.

Maybe we judge that our art isn’t “good,” as if that really diminishes the personal experience of creation.

Often it seems irrelevant to our progress, even though creative hobbies keep our mind plastic and help us to be better problem solvers.

For me, it’s a matter of health. When creative energy is included in my day, I am happier. That’s it. I am simply happier.

In Tarot, each suit can relate to various forms of art.

Free Reading on Relations

Enjoy this free reading about respecting the lessons you have learned around relationships in the last month’s chaos.

Harmonize with Your Yes

This season ahead is particularly relevant due to the wild astrology of August. Hopefully the waves offered us all some beneficial insights that are still emerging.

People love to talk about growth and abundance and manifesting more. It’s essential that we also take time to recuperate from challenges and integrate after boons.

This weekend, consider how you want to step into September and make the most of what August offered.

Lean into Possibility

Now is astrologically a great time for an intuition coaching session.

In phase two of the five squares described last week, we are now set to gain deep insights into a fresh approach to our challenges.

This week, we want to let go and listen to our internal knowing. Allow yourself to think outside the box by putting a temporary halt on old patterns and expectations.
