If you’re into Tarot cards, you already know that Halloween’s a great time to do a reading. If not, what better time to explore?
So we asked Dr. James Wanless – the creator of the famous Voyager Tarot deck to pick a card for The Fresh Toast readers. Using his own deck, he picked “Time-Space.” In traditional decks, this card is called “Judgement” but really, “Time-Space” is a much better fit for Halloween.
Here’s what he had to say about it:
“The richly symbolized Time-Space card represents our highest state of omni-consciousness, primes you for taking flights of imagination and dream to the other side. Allow your brain to fly, your heart to soar, and your body to fall away. Spirited away, go back in time and who you were with – from loved ones to ancient ones – and with your ‘active imagination,’ engage and converse. Please don’t forget to ask for their blessings and guidance about your present and future life.”
Good advice for all of us!
If you want to pick a card for yourself and don’t have your own deck, no worries – there are plenty of options online, including like James’ Voyager card-a-day. (I got the Priestess, one of my favorite cards.)
But what if you pick an unhappy card? Remember that the cards don’t predict the future; they only describe a possible path. If that’s not the direction you want, think about what you can do differently to get a different result.
As James says, “Cards are mirrors, so that whatever card comes to you is you! Say ‘yes,’ and journey to that part of you, that mask and role that wants recognition and expression. Don’t forget to have Fun! Angels fly because they take themselves lightly.”
