My Tarot Musings

The Fool

Here I stand on the edge of my life

Looking around for the first time,

I see the sun shinning, the mountains rising, the birds flying,

I hear the river flowing. 

Here I stand on the edge of my life.

Looking down at this endless depth,

I see nothing but a mist so dense.

One step and I can seek the rest

But am I ready to take this leap yet.

Staying within boundaries, around the familiar is easy,

Staying in the known is easy.

My mind has decided what's best for me,

But what do I do with this soul who wants to seek. 

Turmoil rising inside of me 

The more I see this endless depth, the more I feel it's calling me,

Should I take this leap?

A voice in me is calling me a 'fool'

Asking me to end this here and go back to sleep

But a soundless voice is whispering to me to take this leap.

I take the leap!

Now either I crash or fly beneath

Seconds pass, minutes pass, eternity passes by,

Here I am still falling in this depth-less pit.

I see around for the first time

Noticing these tiny lights all around me.

The soundless voice speaks now

Whispering in my ears, telling me things, 

Things which I never heard before, things which I never imagined before,

Asking me to do things which I never did before,

Asking me to believe in myself , to fly stretching my wings so high up in sky. 

Fool!Fool!Fool! is my mind chanting,

But the soundless voice is still whispering.

Asking me to forget what I knew till now,

Soothing me with it's soundless song,

Filling me with a sense of calm,

Floating me in this here and now,

Asking me to seek my power now,

Telling me my journey starts now.

My Fool's journey

 Hello beautiful souls,

I welcome each one of you to my Moonshine Tarot blog.

I am very excited to start with my first Tarot blog ever!!!

In this blog I am going to share with y'all how I started with my tarot journey and what you can expect out of my future blogs. 

First let me introduce myself. My name is Aditi, I am a Tarot reader and Reiki level 2 practitioner also presently I am learning a new technique called as EFT and TFT tapping. 

Starting with my tarot journey, I have been reading and practicing tarot for almost 4 years now. Since my teenage years I was drawn to and pretty interested in spiritual and occult studies. I was fascinated with the mystery of the universe and used to spend hours reading and exploring about random metaphysical things. 

During these exploring hours I came across this interesting topic called "Tarot" At first I was skeptical about it's working. I couldn't digest the fact that how can a bunch of cards predict someone's future. Hence, I decided to explore it myself by spending time taking those online free tarot readings, asking questions and getting answers to which I could never feel any resonance to. But it used to be fun looking at those brightly colorful images, hence I continued doing the same. 

Now I come from a country named India and Tarot was not a popular tool back then (somewhere around 10 years back)or at least I was not aware of any Tarot reader at that time from whom I could get my reading done and experience it's working. It was approximately in the year 2016 I met a reader through a very close friend of mine who happens to be my teacher now . I still remember that day when I was telling my friend that how I am curious to know about Tarot and how I am unable to find someone who can give me an experience of it. I was THE FOOL of the Tarot who was curious and excited to explore this colorful world of the unknown. It seems like finally the universe answered my longing to learn and experience it by sending my teacher through this close friend of mine.

Finally, I started with my journey. I bought my first deck RWS and since that day till today, Tarot has become an inseparable part of my life. It has become my confidant and a guide. The first thing which I learned was Tarot is NOT a fortune telling tool. I learned how powerful this tool can be on the journey of self-exploration and understanding one's spirituality. It showed me a way to self development and how I can align with my higher self to be the best version of myself. After diving into the world of Tarot I decided to share this experience with others as well by reading and providing them the guidance of Tarot.

The purpose behind starting this blog is to share whatever knowledge and experience I have gathered over the years through learning and reading for others.

What can you expect from my blog?

I am planning to go with the flow at the moment and will post random writings and topics related to Tarot and my experience with it. So you'll get a mix of many things. Hoping it'll be of some use for you or at least y'all enjoy reading it.  

That's it for now. Thank you for taking the time out reading it. 

Brightest blessings!!
