3 DENVER TAROT MEETUP/TAROT IS ALL AROUND YOU A word about the majors Major cards tell a story The Fools Journey Comes to a spiritual completion: Starts out as a fresh new being in the world (the Fool) Embarks on a journey of self discovery of all suits (physical (Chariot/Magician), thinking (Hermit/Emperor), spiritual (High Priestess/Temperance) and emotional (Lovers/Devil)) Upon completion the story doesn t end, but begins anew (the World) What page am I on? 3

6 Choose an item Mix/Shuffle I don t get it Shone me what you mean: Cast Associate Let s say I look at a Cable box I concentrate on the cable box and shuffle shuffle shuffle or mix mix mix then I cast the first card, oh no! Not the Hanged man. Let s see I don t have my little white book handy hey Sherry says I don t need it what is the picture saying? Let s see, dude hanging on a limb, red tights, plants around him. Hmmm kinda looks like he s in a nightshirt, is he sleeping or getting ready to sleep? Those plants look like my house plants. This reminds me of being at home, on my couch, bored, watching tv in my living room, laying on the couch with my head kinda upside down because there is NOTHING to do. I get it the hanged man signifies the boredom I feel, flipping through the channels and all the grey of the background is how I feel too this is amazing Sherry knows what she s talking about ha ha.

7 NOW THAT YOU VE AMAZED YOURSELF Challenge your divination: Cast the next card and place next to the first, this describes the room/location/relationship to the original card Example: Hanged Man/2 of Swords Flipping channels using the cable box, while you re sitting (not laying) you re relaxed but you really need some sleep why are you still up can t keep my eyes open sooooo sleepy and tired the dark night sky is all that I see outside (and the moon hey that s pretty cool). Its pretty late isn t it? Must go to bed.. Draw a third card and continue the story of your household object thus doing a complete Tarot reading Hanged Man/2 of Swords/Reversed 3 of Wands You were watching a late night movie or one of those science miracle shows that you can t stop watching (like Arnie the 89 pound toddler), you remember the fog lifting from your eyes and the show has gone off all you see is blue from the TV screen did the cat change the channel? You fall back to sleep and then jolt up with blinding light from daybreak through the curtains yikes! do you call into work or do you skip the shower and run for the bus? Go and Shone Em!
