SunChariot
So I have read tarot off and on for...20+ years (is that right? seems impossible since I'm only 25 ) and I have noticed a strange phenomenon. When I start reading tarot with some frequency, there is always a shift in my atmosphere. Things start going bump in the night, my third eye goes into overdrive, spirits start to appear and try to communicate with me, my youngest son starts to report "people" hanging around (he's a sensitive of some sort), etc.
But none of this happens when I just read oracles or hang with my crystal ball. Any thoughts on why tarot would open this up but not other forms of divination? Anyone else experience this?
I love tarot but I do get overwhelmed with the energies that seem to be drawn in when I use them so I end up shelving them for months, or even years at a time.
Thoughts?
I can't tell you that for sure as my experience was different. The deck that opened that up for me was an Oracle. It was the Faeries' Oracle by Brian Froud. Soon after I started it, all kinds of things started happening, I sense faeries through all my senses, started getting more and more signs in my life, yep 3rd eye opening more kind of things.
It honestly scared me at first when all my clairs started opening up...as it was not part of my belief system that this was possible. But after talking to many other readers I came to actually understand what it was. And it has always been something beautiful in my life since I could see it for what it actually was.
After this had started happened with that deck, it continued with other decks, but for me it was an Oracle that started it.
My guess on why it's Tarots for you and Oracles for me is that the deck(s) that bring that out in us are the ones with which our intuition connects most. The decks where we have to really go deep inside to connect to them. The ones that really pull that out of us, it's like the flick a switch inside us and things start to turn on more and more.
