Ep 70 – Reading Tarot: The Message vs The Meaning

In this episode, Peter and Bonnie talk about something that can make tarot feel much more accessible: the difference between the message of a card and the meaning we assign to it.We share how easy it is to go straight into “figuring it out” when we pull a card—searching for the correct interpretation, leaning on keywords, or overthinking what the card is supposed to mean. We also talk about another approach: noticing what stands out first, what the imagery brings up, and what the card might be pointing to in your life right now.We also discuss how different decks can change the message you receive from the same card. The artwork, symbols, and mood of the image matter—and they can shift what you notice and how you interpret the card.Throughout the episode, we pull a few cards as examples and talk through them together. Bonnie also shares a personal example of a card she pulled for herself and how it completely resonated with where she’s at right now.Join the Conversation:Did this episode change how you think about reading tarot?
