I learned through watching tarot PACs on YouTube. 

My advice for readers would be…

🤍 If you’re interested in tarot, you’re prolly into symbolism. Thus, your brain is already wired to interpret for deeper meanings. Don’t be intimidated by the practice. 

🩷 Read up on the meanings of the cards but don’t become restricted by those definitions. Try to not define cards as being “bad” or “good”. 

🤍 For example: A card that is typically defined with a positive connotation of “abundance”, could be indicating “too much” or an “over-indulgence” depending on the other pulled cards, your topic/question & the feeling that is evoked in you while reading that card.

🩷 Don’t begin with predicting. Start with more introspective questions that will allow you to build your own style and relationship to your deck.

🤍 Suggestion questions to ask… What’s a memory of mine that I should keep in mind for this week? What part of my life needs more attention? What’s something from the past that my sub-conscious is still stuck on?

Tarot Cards & Meanings:

There are 2 groups: Major Arcana and Minor Arcana

Major Arcana - Reflect major life events and/or themes.

Minor Arcana - Make up most of the deck. These reflect everyday matters. They can be seen as the details. 

There are 4 suits to Minor Arcana:

🌊 Cups - Emotional world - ex: relationships, love. 

If cups card appears, it’s about feelings.

🧠 Brain Swords - Mental world - ex: thoughts/mindset, choices, conflicts, communication.

If swords appears, its about the mind.

🔥 Wands - Action world - ex: creation/creativity, action, ambition, inspiration.

If the wands card appears, its about inner passion and action.

💰 Pentacles - Material + physical world - ex: money, health, body, career.

If pentacles card appears, its about something in the real world, something tangible.

Each suit has Ace(1) through 10 and 4 court cards:

Page - Student/Messager - Youthful, Curious, New Beginnings.

Think of a page/servant - Typically a young boy looking up to & in service to higher ups + higher ruling/the system/royal court.

Knight - Go-Getter - Action-taker, obsessed, hustling, fast & driven.

Think of a Knight - They’re devoted on a mission, following orders, in pursuit whether action is right or wrong.

Queen - Healer/Protector - Nurturing, intuition.

Think of a Queen, she rules quietly given “feminine” responsibilities. She is the ultimate mother to all.

King - Authority - control, leader.

Think of a King, he rules all, demands respect, controls and leads others.

Minor Arcana Examples:

Page of cups - Personified energy - young boy, emotional, sensitive & imaginative. Might suggest: New ideas, fresh perspective, emotional news.

King of Wands - Personified energy - A confident, inspired, ambitious leader desiring action. Ultimate fire sign man. Might suggest: Clear path forward, narrow-minded thinking, selfish/inconsiderate actions, charismatic/humorous/joyful energy.

i have come up with a kind of challenge to become our best version before the end of the year.

with this habit we are going to implement healthier habits in our lives and abandon those that are not benefiting us, also get to know ourselves better and manifest our desires or goals for the next year.

the challenge has a duration of 21 days but obviously after that we have to continue with this healthy lifestyle that we have created.

- habits to implement on a daily basis

drink two liters of water a day (recommended for physical and mental health).

movement (training at home, at the gym, going for a walk, running, yoga, pilates, any activity that allows you to exercise your body)

commit yourself to one habit during these 21 days, for example journaling.

choose a meditation on something you want to improve in your life, it can be self-love, relationships, economic abundance, health and do it daily (i recommend before going to sleep) during all the days of the challenge.

also choose a video of affirmations, a subliminal, mantra that has to do with the meditation you chose and listen to it at least once a day and if you can more, whenever you feel like it.

print, make or buy a calendar to keep track of this challenge and mark the days you met, if you miss one, start again, propose it.

go to bed an hour earlier than you usually go to bed and get up half an hour earlier than you usually get up.

- habits you need to start replacing now

screen time, stop being so much connected to social media and do something outside or even at home but you don't have to use your phone.

in any social media, stop following 10 accounts that you think are "hurting" you and in turn follow 5 new ones that you think will help you in your personal growth and development or at least inspire you something positive, the time you are going to use social media at least see things that nourish you.

stop worrying, when a problem or difficulty of any kind comes up, write in a journal how you feel, do a meditation or anything else that keeps you focused on something other than the problem, if necessary you can feel the anger or sadness, but don't get stuck in those thoughts.

instead of spending time watching tv or any streaming platform, read a book or listen to a spiritual/personal growth podcast.

- journaling ideas

during these days you can write in your diary these kinds of things:

how you would like your year 2024 to be.

all your goals for the next year.

how you would like your best version of yourself to be from now on.

an extraordinary event that you would like to happen before the end of this year.

a letter of forgiveness to someone who hurt you (it can be yourself too).

a list of 10 things you would do or would like to happen to you if you believe that everything is possible for you.

list of books you want to read from now and this 2024

a mantra or affirmation that you will write daily every morning for the next 21 days. write one that comes to mind or one that resonates with you.

- how to do the challenge?

organize your day to implement the habits i mentioned at the beginning such as exercise, journaling, drinking the two liters of water, doing the meditation you chose, listening to the affirmations you chose.

if one day you don't do any of these things, propose to start again from day 1.

you don't have to exercise daily either, if you are just starting out it can be 3 or 4 days but for example the other days go for a walk or do a stretching routine.

what i have proposed are small habits that can be done daily and complement the routine you have right now, you can do it and after those 21 days you will see a significant change in your life.

this challenge is just a kind of game to make it more fun and have more motivation to implement these habits in your day and start doing it now and not when the year begins. that your best version does not wait any longer to come to light.

Hello girlies, welcome to another blog! On this one I will write down quickly all the productivity tips that have helped me to have an consistent lifestyle in a soft and more femenine focused way.

We are femenine beings, our energy levels aren't like the ones of men, so we have to stop managing our life like them (same energy everyday, be quick, focus on achieving, etc..) and do it in a way that let's us do our tasks based on our necesities and letting our energy be free!

My tips

Plan your day according to your energy levels

Prioritize the hardest tasks + Use the Eisenhower matrix

Make a to-do list, focused on 3 mainly tasks

Reward yourself

Positive and clean environment

Get rid of distractions

Take breaks

2 minute rule - It takes less than 2 minutes? Do it

5 minute rule - Apply a timer and do that task for 5 minutes

Apply deadlines for yourself

Create systems to keep track

Already working on something? Try to do something else (for future ease and saving time)

Extras

Switch mindset: Discipline < Devotion

Good mood changes everything. Things will be easier and faster and you'll be more focused.

Good health transforms you. Without it, there's nothing

Focus on the positive to attract good things

Focus on what causes and impact in your life

Let yourself prioritize time to have fun and rest

Take things easy and slowly

Live in the present moment

Let's be succesful by grace! See you in my next blog 𑄽𑄺ྀ
