soul tarot Flashcards
the moon (master’s line: advanced soul work)
Pisces, shadow work, deep dive into the unconscious, the shadow realm, psychic & emotional experiences, deeply trust the darkness, it’s darkest before dawn, we are in the dark because we can trust it & handle it, it is safe to relax into the contraction, if we can relax, sink in & surrender to the void & darkness, we can receive downloads and open up to the next cycle of life, we may have to meet things from the past to heal them. we want to be careful of what actions we are making in this card and be sure we aren’t taking panicked action to “get away” from the pain of the contraction. this is the labor pains before the Sun (rebirth & clarity). dark night of the soul.
the moon RX
we might feel unable to relax & surrender into the void & darkness, we feel too panicked to settle in or we don’t think we can handle it. we may be feeling triggered. we also may have just gone through a deep moon period and are now ready to come out.
the sun (the master’s line: advanced soul work)
ruled by leo, massive rebirth, insight, clarity, answers, transformation, we are born anew. we just came from a period where everything was confusing and unclear, and now we have insight. connection with action, growth & clarity. we have come through the dark night and now the sun is coming up, we can see again. this card can be very confronting, if we aren’t used to the light and the shiny sun & illumination. some ppl find the sun very painful because they have a real hard time being in the light. it’s ok to trust the joy.
the sun RX
the nervous system is a little distrustful that all this light is going to keep shining, and that all this brightness is here.
The Sun reversed helps us know we can shift into a space where we can begin to trust that light, just that it might take some work.
Ruled by the sun, The Sun card is here as a beautiful symbol of rebirth, one that ushers us into a time of deep seeing, understanding and self sovereignty.
judgement (the master’s line: advanced soul work)
ruled by Pluto, deep shadow work, deep inner work about refining and exploring any judgements we have of self and others into compassion & love. symbolism of judgement day, a huge awakening and massive realizations about seeing our behavior and judgements of someone else are actually about us or that someone else behavior is actually abusive. can also show up when we need to really confront some decisions or situations so that we can level up and complete a huge cycle and move into the World card//integrate the lessons you have learned “if you know better, do better” // “there is no I” there is no one out there except you.
judgement RX
we can be so caught in our judgments and “right & wrong” we can’t see them, and can be unaware that we need to do some inner work on that. we may be unwilling to really integrate the lessons from our soul work and begin acting from a place of soul and growth. also, we may have just been through a huge portal of judgement work and are now ready to move out into a space of deep compassion & investigation and inquiry
the world (the master’s line: advanced soul work)
saturn. closure, the end of a chapter & cycle. integration of many hard lessons and HUGE soul growth. elimination of the old as lessons have been learned. pay attention to major life patterns, people, energies and situations that are ready to go for good so you can level up. we have learned everything we needed to learn for our soul’s growth and are ready to graduate. it’s a beautiful victory & celebration. it’s like finals week in college, just be sure everything is proofread and submitted for grading, and then pop your champagne.
the world RX
this usually comes up when we are wanting to be done with a soul lesson before we have actually fully learned it. Spirit doesn’t want us to rush through the end- it is worth it to take our time with the final touches and be thorough with our soul work bc after this- it’s over, we will never return to this lesson again. so let’s do it right the first time.
the chariot
ruled by cancer.
the hanged one
ruled by Neptune (planet of illusion, mystery & depth). we are moving from ego to soul in this card. this is deep surrender in order to get a new perspective and see things clearly. it’s like thrashing around in a pond and expecting to see through the muddy water- it’s not gonna happen. to see clearly we need to be still. it’s choosing evolution through discomfort. this card prepares us for the death card. we may move through the stages of grief.
the king of swords RX
we may be feeling extremely scared of truth-telling, but we need to kind of get over it and say what needs to be said. doesn’t matter how it will be received, that’s not the point. we need to express a truth. period. this is the fear of speaking up card. but speak even if your voice shakes. you will grow stronger from it. if someone doesn’t like your boundaries, they benefited from you having none.
queen of cups
double water. deep emotions & psychic realms. non-speaking, nonverbal, deeply feeling, completely psychic holder of mystery. this is an invitation to be so inner and so within the inner mystery that it’s almost otherworldly. we truly must listen to ourselves in this card. She is connected to her work in a very deep way, showing us what she is capable of creating, which she follows her heart and focuses on her intuitive process.
she is deeply aware of her inner world and inner senses- she is highly emotional and intuitive, dreamy, sensitive, loving and very available to herself for self care, tending to the soft and tender places. she is holding herself deep in the ocean.
This archetype invites us into dedicated, quiet, solo time, allowing us to create from the heart and dive for treasures in the waters of our being.
8 of cups
this is the card of moving on, of leaving something behind. usually something we’ve worked hard for or on. despite our emotional connection and strong desire of wanting to make it work. it is just not in alignment anymore. it is time to step away in hopes of something better and more aligned, even if we don’t know what that something is. especially then. we honor the grief, and move away with gratitude, grace & love. we need to connect with a deep trust of ourselves and our path, and when we are being called to drop something, we must listen. let it be as easy a process as possible.
knight of pentacles
earth & air. this is a card of a very careful pace. we double check everything. we are preparing. we get everything ready and sorted before we take our first steps. we aim, assess and prepare. we are organized and focused. here is nothing impulsive or hasty about this energy. The rolling hills behind the knight signify a smooth journey, one that will unfold perfectly once the knight is ready.
nine of rods RX
this speaks of a time when our pace needs a little course correction. if we’ve been moving too fast, too quick with not enough rest, we are being called to slow down. we may need to ask for help. this card is also evidence of a life change in which we need to be assessing how we are nurturing & nourishing ourselves.
ace of swords RX
all aces are opportunities from Spirit to begin. an ace of swords has to do with brilliant ideas, revelations and downloads. in the reverse, we may need more information or support from others who have more clarity, info in order to execute the brilliant idea.
ten of pentacles
this card is an energy of harvest & abundance, of reaping the reward of a period of intense soul work. when we pull this card we are ready for a period of harvest that is coming, that will not only serve us but everyone around us. we are doing the work we are meant to do.
the tower
trusting what is cleared from our life. whatever is leaving, is not meant to come forward with us.
six of wands
Six of Wands invites us to enjoy the gifts of victory while they are present, practicing non-attachment around the larger journeys with our creative work. Whether we are in a period of feast or famine, success or “failure”, we are being reminded that it is all temporary. We cycle through both failure & success, and really these are just projections anyway. Also, if people are really hating on our shine it’s cool to just let them work out their own contraction. the 6 of wands is the ultimate shine your light card. it’s the ultimate let yourself be seen card. you are here to do this way bigger than your own ego’s limitations or anyone else’s. we would be wise to remember that success & victories must be celebrated appropriately, as they don’t last forever. we don’t need to attach our worth to any one victory or failure. It’s really just a matter of trying to be the best person we can be, riding the waves and not taking on too much, really just being with it as it stands. this is the aligned expansion, shine your light card. your destiny is greater than anyone else’s ego, even your own. shine your light and not give a fuck if other people like it or not.
this is the card of when we have moved through test after test and are now enjoying or about to be enjoying a new level of success. this card asks us to see where we are already blessed. increased success in terms of recognition, validation, respect, followers, etc. there will be more people “seeing you”.
ace of swords
“the fool of swords”. the magician/ mercury. We have brilliant ideas. We have massive inspiration. We want to create. We’re connected with something larger than ourselves, and we’re ready to bring it forward. Whenever we’re in Ace of Swords, it’s time to essentially reach up above us, grab that sword and bring it down into ourselves. We have a choice to take hold of that clarity of the mind, to be deeply connected with it and bring forward whatever wants to come forward through us.
the devil RX
the reversal of the devil happens when we are moving through an expansion, experiencing joy, success, contentment, anything “expanded” rather than crunchy, and the brain starts to get a little scared. it’s the good stuff outside of the comfort zone. so, in order for the brain to cope, it invites us into our old patterns (of what’s familiar), so we might want to call an ex, desperately want to do drugs, impulsively spend (this is a big moon sign thing), and it might not be working. but, if we name what is going on we have power over it. we can refuse to participate in old patterns & behaviors just because the brain is uncomfortable in expansion. just know that the brain is trying its old tricks, anything that “slows us down”, and moves us back into contraction (which the brain likes because it’s familiar). we always have the option to refuse these invitations, especially when we name what the brain is doing.
the hermit RX
the Hermit comes to us reversed when we want to move things faster, and we may be feeling quite impatient. the medicine here is to slow down, everything is happening at the right pace. we need to deeply pause, if we are resisting slowness. we are being asked to go one step at a time, light driving at night. and we are being asked to focus, if we are getting hurried or busied by distractions. the next step is clear, and the next step is all you need to know. you can drive the whole journey only seeing a few steps ahead, if you trust the path. you don’t need to see the end to begin.
ten of cups RX
it’s time to try new things. especially what doesn’t look pretty on the outside. if we’ve been in a period of tasting a lot of delicious looking fruit that tastes like shit, it’s time to look elsewhere. we need to shift our perspective on what we want and how to get it, we need to try new avenues and new methods.
