Tarot Cards: Accurate Or Not?

There has been a phenomenon for quite a while about tarot cards. Tarot cards are a set a playing cards that each have their meaning and are typically used for gaining answers from the spiritual world above. The Tarot cards each depict certain aspects and characteristics of life. Some symbolize the past, present, or future. Every spiritual lesson we experience in our lives is represented in the seventy-eight Tarot cards that come in a deck. When using Tarot cards, one usually asks a specific question they want help being answered, and with the help of their intuition, they pick a turned over card that they are drawn to. Tarot cards are used to connect with your subconscious. Usually the card you end up choosing ends up being what your subconscious is trying to tell you.

Growing up, my mother always used to talk about her Tarot cards, and she had stacks of them in her room. Every time she tried to do a reading for me, I brushed her off because I mistook it as a fortune telling. Tarot cards cannot accurately predict what will happen in the near or far future, but they do shed light on what you have to do to obtain the goals you have set for yourself.

For example, I can ask the question, "How can I attract love?" as opposed to, "Will I meet someone this month?" With this question, whatever card I pull, is a sign of how I can attract new love and I can envision my desired relationship and manifest it. Everyone has intuition or gut feeling, but many of us don't take the time to understand and listen to it. There have been numerous occasions where something doesn't feel right, and if I had listened to my intuition, I feel I would have been able to handle the situation better. Tarot card readings should not be taken too. It should act as calling upon our inner wisdom, or Higher Self, to act as a guide on how to improve ourselves and get in touch with our desires.

I highly recommend purchasing a deck of Tarot Cards and finding a quiet place to get in touch with your subconscious to help with any worries or problems in your life. You can do it with a friend or by yourself. In each Tarot Card deck, there is a booklet which explains what all the cards mean, and you should refer to it after pulling one. After every reading, I always feel more at ease and inspired to work towards living a positive, happy life, and I hope you do too!

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
