How I Got Hooked on My Tarot Cards Again
So the other morning, I spilled coffee on my keyboard trying to wipe it clean… again. Totally a Taurus moment, right? Bull-in-a-china-shop vibes. Made me laugh, but also got me thinking. Saw someone talking about Taurus season stuff online, and I remembered that dusty tarot deck shoved in the back of my desk drawer.
Seriously, hadn’t touched those cards in months. Life got busy. But the coffee incident felt like a sign, you know? That stubborn earth energy was peeking through. I decided right then: time for a quick, personal horoscope check, Tarot style. Just for fun, just for me. No heavy vibes.
Pulled out the deck. Cards felt kinda sticky. Probably from the last time I used them eating cookies. Oops. Gave ’em a quick wipe. Sat down at the kitchen table, not even sure I remembered how to do a simple spread. Decided to keep it super basic. Just one card. What’s the big energy vibe for Taurus-me right now? That’s all I wanted.
Shuffled them. Not super smooth, kinda awkward. Dropped a couple. Classic me. Focused on my Taurus-ness while shuffling – thinking about craving stability, getting annoyed at changes, loving my comfort zone… and yes, being kinda stubborn sometimes. Felt real.
Cut the deck. Fanned the cards out face down on the table. Just closed my eyes for a second, felt kinda silly, but also peaceful. Reached out and grabbed one card near the middle. Flipped it over.
Boom. The Hierophant.
Stared at it. Had to scramble for my little tattered guidebook crammed with the deck. Thumbed through it, coffee mug rings staining the pages. Found it. Okay, so what’s it saying for Taurus?
This card… it’s all about:
- Rules and traditions – which, heck yeah, Taurus loves knowing the rules.
- Seeking guidance – Taurus sometimes needs that gentle nudge, even if we pretend we don’t.
- Finding stability in systems – music to a Taurus ear! Predictable structures? Yes please.
- That stubbornness? Channeling it into sticking with something meaningful.
Sat there nodding. It felt… surprisingly spot on. Been feeling pulled towards setting up a solid routine lately, wanting clearer boundaries at work, maybe looking for some kind of mentorship thing? All fits under that Hierophant umbrella. Wasn’t expecting the cards to feel so immediately relevant again. Made the whole coffee-spill start feel kinda fated in a weird way.
And honestly? It took maybe fifteen minutes, tops. From messy coffee to flipping a card that actually made sense. Didn’t solve world hunger, didn’t predict lottery numbers. But it gave me a little focused thought on my Taurean traits that day, made me chuckle at the stubbornness, and reminded me that maybe leaning into that need for structure right now is totally okay. Maybe even helpful. Gave me a tiny nudge to maybe look into that online course I’d been eyeing about organizing… perfect Taurus project. Deck went back on the desk, not hidden this time.
