I dag faldt jeg over Mary K. Greers Tarot Blog.
Mary K. Greer er forfatter til mange bøger om tarot, blandt andre “21 ways to read a tarot card” og “Tarot for Your Self”.
Endnu en spændende mulighed for at læse mere om tarot. Det er bare om at komme igang. Det første (eller snarere seneste) indlæg handler om forholdet mellem synske og intuitive evner i forhold til at læse tarot.
Tirsdag morgen efter påskedagene. Hverdag igen. Nedtællingen kan for alvor begynde. I dag er der netop en måned til min termin.
Nu har jeg endelig fået lavet mig en avatar. Den er blevet lavet i forbindelse med min huseren på Aeclectic Tarot, og har naturligvis noget med Tarot at gøre … det er nemlig The Moon – mit yndligstarotkort.
On the Aeclectic Tarot Forum I have committed my self to do an Intensive Deck Study by the following “rules” for the next six months:
? * Official start date at the vernal equinox and end date at the autumnal equinox.
* Only the Universal Waite will be used for readings, study, journalling etc.
* I’ll handle the deck every day.
* My keywords for reading will be Flow, Intuition, Now.
* That means that all reading materials (internet, books) will not be used during reading the cards, since I’ll use the IDS to exercise my reading abilities and my intuition.
* I’ll try to get to read for as many “strangers” as possible during the period.
* I’ll will use reading materials including 78 degrees of wisdom, Tarot for yourself and other titles, if I find it appropiate for *studying* i.e. after the actual reading (see below).
* I’ll study the cards as they turn up in readings. I’ll mostly use three card readings and thereby practise elemental and numerical dignities if relevant for the reading. Apart from that I’ll try to get a better grip of the Majors and their significance (in readings).
* As for journaling I’ll record my readings (positions, meanings etc) in my tarot ringbinder. As for further meditation and reflecting (for seeing the readings in relation to my everyday life) I’ll use my diary.
*As for other decks I’ll order the Robin Wood for my birthday in july (about halfway through the process) and the Druidcraft and/or the Deviant Moon at the end of the process. I’ll just check for completeness etc.
