Okay, so today I decided to mess around with tarot cards, specifically the “caballo de oros” (Knight of Pentacles). I’ve been feeling a bit stuck lately, you know, like I’m not really moving forward. So I thought, why not see what the cards have to say?
First, I gotta say, I’m no expert. I just have this deck I picked up at a quirky little shop, and sometimes I like to pull a card for fun. I don’t take it too seriously, but it can be a good way to spark some self-reflection.
My Little Tarot Experiment
So, I shuffled the deck, focusing on my current situation – that feeling of being stagnant. I cut the deck, like the instructions said, and then I pulled a card. Boom! Caballo de Oros.
I looked at the card – it’s this knight on a horse, looking all serious and determined. He’s holding a pentacle, which is like a coin, representing material things, work, that kind of stuff.
I grabbed my little guidebook (yeah, I need a guidebook, I told you I’m no expert!) and started reading. It talked about practicality, responsibility, and slow but steady progress. It also mentioned things like routine and perseverance. And honestly, it kind of hit home.
- Practicality: I realized, I have been all over the place.
- Responsibility: Maybe a routine check could be usefull.
- Perseverance: Slow and steady wins.
The card seemed to be saying, “Hey, you’re not going to make a giant leap overnight. Focus on the small, consistent steps. Be reliable, be patient, and keep working towards your goals.” It wasn’t some magical solution, but it was a good reminder.
After reading up on it, I spent some time just thinking. I wrote down some things I’ve been putting off – small tasks, nothing major, but things that add up. Stuff like organizing my desk, finally canceling that subscription I don’t use, you know, the boring adult stuff.
I decided on just three * thing to start doing.
The Caballo de Oros didn’t magically fix my life, but it did give me a little nudge. It reminded me that progress, even slow progress, is still progress. And sometimes, that’s exactly what you need to hear. It’s not about huge, dramatic changes, but about those everyday actions that build up over time. Now to start my three things!
