Tarot Cards That Would Best Define Coming Out Of Your Social And Sexual Shell?

[Divine Onyx]

Some slight back-story I've always been extremely shy, and pretty much a shut in, however, I am slowly starting to come out my shell.

I first started to think about The Sun (In particular the Morgan Greer version and Hanson - Roberts version)

The baby is naked in the HR version of this card and is damn proud of it, he is basically saying "I'm free and I'm not ashamed of anything!". I think this would define coming out of your social shell.

However, the Morgan Greer Version has a picture of a naked boy and girl, which to me indicates a more sexual awakening than a social awakening and overcoming shyness.


The Knight of Wands would also indicate bursting onto the scene with rigor and fire.

The Knight of Wands represents a male in his twenties that is wild and almost uncontrollable in many aspects, he is a prowler, looking for your daughters and looking to break their hearts! He's the guy that everyone knows and wants to be, he's is a lively person and keeps the party going even in a jail cell at 3 am in morning!

Are there any other cards that in your opinion would better define coming out of your social and sexual shell?

Hi! I'm pretty much going through something like this now, for me it's the Queen of Wands

Besides the Sun, for feeling good about yourself (which is often all one needs to come out of their shell)

Moon.... the crayfish, may not lose his shell, but he does emerge from his watery world into an unknown environment and does some howling under the moon... getting in touch with the wilder side
Tower for one... freeing yourself from an artificially created prison of self perception

Devil.... letting go of inhibitions

Fool.... No Fear, Jump, just do it, losing the baggage, don't worry, be happy

[Jezzabelle]

I would say The Sun for your social life, you always get extra attention under the spotlight of the sun !!

Coming out of your sexual shell I would have to go with The Devil or even The Empress because she is very sensual

I disagree it's Wands... I understand the logic behind associating the nature of the question with Wands, but the Wands suit has always been sexual, grandiose, passionate, outgoing thus it's more appropriate to be an outcome or 'final result' card.

For the OP, I would say Cups fits better because when you're growing into something (again this is just my opinion, in my mind...) your legs are wobbly at first. There's still traces of the old "you" in your new personality. It reminds me of a newly born foal trying to stand for the first time. When you're still getting used to your environment or even your own personality (being more outgoing, etc.) you're a bit awkward but in that endearing way (hence, cups.)

Queen of Wands.
