Welcome to my tarot blog. I am a tarot beginner, I picked up my Rider-Waite deck shortly after Christmas 2009 after having wanted to learn to read for a long time. I keep this blog mostly for myself, but would welcome any discussion that anybody would like to contribute to my tarot journaling. I am especially interested in the history of Tarot/Tarocchi and would like to learn not only how to read Tarot cards, but Tarot card games as well.

Daily Tarot Card Draw, 17 August 2010: Two of Pentacles (reversed)


Daily Tarot Card Draw, 17 August 2010: Two of Pentacles (reversed)
Originally uploaded by j.goreham

Good evening! Tonight, after a hectic, busy day, I pulled the 2 of Pentacles, in the reversed position, from my RWS deck.

The two of Pentacles depicts a man in leggings and a doublet and a tall hat balancing two pentacles, surrounded by an infinity sign. There are waves in the background, with ships on the peaks of the waves.

I did do a bit of delecate balancing today, sneaking around to get co-workers to sign a card, then set up a birthday cake without the recipient knowing. I also chose coffee beans for husband while at the shop today.

I find relating my card to the day I've had to be a lot more challenging than pulling a card in the morning- I also find I'm more likely to pull a card in the morning than in the evening. The other thing I've noticed is that my RWS deck is starting to feel well-used. Compared to my Morgan-Greer deck. which was lightly used when I bought it second hand, or even my Tell-Me Tarot that just doesn't have as many miles on it, my RWS deck has nice, soft edges that aren't so sharp to handle. It is really becoming my tarot deck!
