Tarot for the Curious Spirit: Awakening the High Priestess Within

Product Information

What is the point of a spiritual awakening that forces you to see past yourself if you don’t use it for good? Taking an active role in your community can connect you to situations and lifestyles completely removed from your own. This can help you to experience life in all its glory and sadness. Increasing your gratitude and thankfulness for what you have but also opening your eyes and hearts to the greater purpose you may have. Confront Yourself As the journey unfolds, individuals may experience moments of profound revelation and insight. These insights often lead to a deeper understanding of the nature of reality and one’s connection with all life. This stage is characterized by glimpses of unity consciousness, where the boundaries between the self and the world blur. Individuals may experience moments of bliss, inner peace, and a profound sense of purpose, providing a taste of the profound transformation that is possible through awakening. Stage 4: The Dark Night of the Soul What makes tarot so effective? There are a few traits that set it apart from other methods you might use:

You may see yourself as the Fool or the High Priestess. You may see yourself walking through the landscape of a specific card as well. Some Final Words on Intuition and Tarot In the final stage of the awakening process, individuals gradually come to terms with the insights and transformations experienced throughout the journey. There is a growing acceptance of the profound realizations gained during the awakening, and a sense of inner peace and alignment with one’s true self begins to emerge. Integration involves finding a balance between the awakened awareness and the practical aspects of daily life. It is a stage of inner harmony and a deepening connection to the spiritual dimension of existence, allowing individuals to navigate the world with greater wisdom, compassion, and authenticity.If you were trying to guess the card, you may have felt stumped. Yet tuning in to the impression and meaning and message, you basically had several aspects of this card down pat. It’s a matter of trusting yourself! Tarot gives you something tangible to help you access something intangible. This makes it feel less like you’re stumbling in the dark. A spiritual awakening can be described as many things. A sudden discovery of self, a realization of truth, even the shattering of your current reality. Put plainly, a spiritual awaking is when your sense of self is suddenly thrust into the limelight. You will begin to question everything you have ever been taught and may feel simultaneously separated from the world and more connected to it than ever before.

The “realness” of these intuitive impressions or psychic experiences can range from vague to clear as if in a dream. Just because an impression seems vague doesn’t mean it isn’t accurate. Yet that is what we assume oftentimes. The stages of a spiritual awakening can be different for everyone. Some spiritual journeys can last years and others only a few short weeks. However, we have a simple guide to the most common stages of a spiritual awakening to help you judge where you are on your journey, and where you still have to go. The Initiation These are stereotypes and aren’t relevant to true intuition. Yes, your bloodline may have been prominent psychics but that is because everyone is intuitive. The initiation phase is often sparked by a catalyst—an event or encounter that shakes one’s perception of reality. This catalyst can take various forms, such as a profound spiritual experience, a chance meeting with a spiritual teacher or mentor, or exposure to a transformative book or teaching. It marks the beginning of a conscious search for answers and deeper meaning in life. During this stage, individuals explore different spiritual practices, philosophies, and teachings, seeking to understand the mysteries of existence and their place within the grand tapestry of the universe. Stage 3: The RevelationViewing your spiritual awakening as a journey with lots of twists and turns can help alleviate some stress and anxiety you may experience. This new path of self-discovery won’t be a linear journey of personal growth. You may find yourself healing from past traumas one week, only for the following week to feel as though those traumas are consuming your every waking moment. There are many different signs that you are entering the beginning stages of a spiritual awakening. You may experience all of these at some point or you may only experience one or two of them. Your journey will be entirely personal to you and can look very different from the next person. The quest doesn’t have to be all about spirituality, it can be about finding the truth about how your lifestyle serves you. How you serve your community or even as simple as an awakening to how your behavioral patterns need to change. Your quest is yours alone. Integration It’s a realization that the ego is just one aspect of who we are. Many individuals who experience a spiritual awakening report a profound sense of connection to something greater than themselves. This can take the form of feeling connected to a higher power, the universe, or a collective consciousness. This connection often brings a deep sense of peace, purpose, and love.

Making and looking at art is a natural way to awaken your intuition. In this process, your emotions and subconscious are engaged. You are entering the world of symbol, color, meaning, and interpretation. Yet when it comes to prediction and reading for others, our personal intuition can get entangled with our thoughts, feelings and beliefs.Many people experience a wide variety of synchronicities from seeing the same numbers over and over again (many call these angel numbers when they come in formats like 1111 or 2222). You may experience simultaneously occurring events that appear to be related to each other. This can also manifest as Deja Vu. Increased Peace & Calm The answer is yes, sort of. I believe that we all, as people, are intuitive. This is part of our own higher wisdom. Yet I also believe that when we use our “personal” intuition we will still be somewhat limited. Reflect and integrate: After completing the reading, take some time to reflect on the messages received. Consider how they resonate with your current situation and what actions or shifts you can make to align with your higher purpose. It can be helpful to journal or meditate on the insights gained from the reading. There are popular time-tested approaches that do this, and each of them shifts our consciousness, raises our vibrations, and brings us more of the wonderful benefits listed above. Popular methods include meditation, yoga practices, journaling, and even exercise. As different as these various methods are from each other, they all have in common the ability to awaken us to the truth and wisdom within ourselves.

If you are curious about tarot, it may be calling to you. Does it intrigue you, stir your curiosity, and inspire you to learn what the symbolic pictures may have to reveal to you? If so, it may be time to try a personal tarot practice of your own. Put the books away. Under normal circumstances, I would never say this about any topic. But when it comes to Tarot and Intuition, the less you know the better. Using the card above, you may ask one of the birds what they can see from their flight. You may then see images in your mind that show you the bird’s eye view or give you other forms of guidance. This was my favorite game when I was first opening up my intuition. Try doing this both from personal intuition and intentional Spirit connection and notice the difference. 1. Invite your Spirit Guides With intuition, the effort is more about being receptive. If you put effort into anything it should be practice and rigorous self-honesty.

When the clouds of delusion are removed by grace the light of love shines radiantly in all directions.

At the heart of a spiritual awakening is a profound shift in the way an individual perceives the world. It’s as if a veil has been lifted, revealing a reality that was previously hidden or obscured. This shift can manifest in various ways, such as seeing the connection of all life, recognizing the impermanence of material things, or feeling a deep sense of unity with the universe. In essence, a spiritual awakening is a profound awakening of the soul to a deeper and more profound reality. It can be a life-altering experience that brings a sense of purpose, clarity, and fulfillment. While it may be triggered by various factors and experienced differently by each individual, its core elements involve a shift in perception, an expanded consciousness, and a deep connection to the spiritual or transcendent aspects of existence. It’s a journey that takes one from a limited perspective to a more expansive, enlightened view of the self and the world.
