Alright, let’s dive into this winter solstice tarot spread thing for 2023. So, the winter solstice, it’s like this big moment when the sun decides to take a breather and head into Capricorn, right? It’s supposed to be a time for looking back and letting go and all that jazz. I figured, why not give it a shot and see what all the fuss is about?
First off, I grabbed my tarot deck. It’s got all these cards with weird pictures and symbols. I’m no expert, but I like to think they hold some kind of secret wisdom or something. I shuffled them up real good, thinking about the year that’s gone by and what I might want to change or leave behind.
I laid out the cards in this spread I found online. There are tons of options, but I picked one that goes through the zodiac signs. I’m not a big believer in astrology, but I thought it could be interesting. Each card is supposed to represent a different sign, starting with Aries and ending with Pisces.
- Aries: This card was all about new beginnings and taking action. I guess it’s telling me to get off my butt and start something fresh.
- Taurus: This one was about stability and grounding. Maybe I need to focus on building a solid foundation for myself.
- Gemini: Communication and learning were the themes here. I could probably work on being a better listener and maybe picking up a new skill.
- Cancer: This card was all about emotions and intuition. I’ve been trying to get more in touch with my feelings lately, so this one hit home.
- Leo: This one was about creativity and self-expression. I’ve been feeling a bit creatively blocked, so maybe I need to find an outlet.
- Virgo: This card was all about service and helping others. I’ve been thinking about volunteering or doing something to give back to the community.
- Libra: This one was about balance and harmony. I definitely need to work on finding more balance in my life.
- Scorpio: This card was all about transformation and letting go of the past. This one is tough, but I know I need to do it.
- Sagittarius: This one was about adventure and expanding my horizons. I’ve been feeling stuck in a rut, so maybe it’s time to try something new.
- Capricorn: This card was all about discipline and setting goals. I need to get more organized and focused if I want to achieve my dreams.
- Aquarius: This one was about innovation and thinking outside the box. I’ve been trying to come up with new ideas for work, so this one was timely.
- Pisces: This card was all about spirituality and connecting with something bigger than myself. I’ve been feeling a bit lost lately, so maybe this is what I need.
After laying out all the cards, I took some time to just sit with them and see what came up. It was kind of like a meditation or something. I closed my eyes, took some deep breaths, and tried to clear my mind. Then I looked at each card and thought about what it might mean for me.
Honestly, it was a pretty cool experience. I don’t know if I believe in all this tarot stuff, but it definitely gave me some food for thought. It was a good way to reflect on the past year and think about what I want for the future. I might even make it a yearly tradition. It’s like a little check-in with myself, you know? A way to take stock of where I’m at and where I want to go.
