Into The Woods: A Journey With the Tarot

In this episode, I discuss how Justice is closely tied to feelings and emotions despite how emotionless the card may look. I give some recent examples of when Justice came up in readings, talk about it's place in the path of the major arcana, and compare Justice to other tarot cards involving balance. We end with a creative spread to help deal with conflict and issues of fairness.www.mariofthewoods.comIG: @mariofthewoods

In this episode, I talk about the importance of not giving your power away to the cards.  But if the cards don't tell us what to do, what exactly do they do for us? Listen for my take on the magic of the tarot and how it works. I take us through an example reading with the 10 of swords to demonstrate what it looks like when we give our power away to the cards versus when we use the cards to empower US. Then I share some stories of when the tarot was extra magical and spooky and offer an exercise for using tarot cards to inspire questions to ask ourselves as reflection questions or journal prompts.www.mariofthewoods.comIG: @mariofthewoods

The Sun card is often associated with words like happiness, success, and optimism, which always felt a bit shallow and I've struggled to connect deeply to this card. In this episode, I take you through how I developed a deeper connection to this card through word association, some of the more powerful meanings and implications of this card, and a recent day I had that felt like a Sun card type of day. We end with a joyful Sun Card spread that I created just for this episode!www.mariofthewoods.comIG: @mariofthewoods
