For centuries, tarot cards have been used as a mirror to the human soul. Even today, this amazing tool for divination helps reveal hidden truths, detect emotional blocks, as well as uncover your potential. But…did you know that your tarot deck can also help you uncover…the purpose of your life? Whether you feel like nothing has sense, are craving a deeper sense of meaning, or are simply curious about your path, tarot is an effective and, well, fun way to find out all that. Let’s see how tarot can guide you toward your unique role in the world and actually enjoy the ride!
But before you go…what is a life purpose?
The good news, guys – it’s not necessarily one grandiose mission or a big job to save the world like Captain America. The purpose of your life is the core theme of what fulfils and drives you. As a rule, your life purpose is directly related to your passions, tastes, talents, values, and how you are meant to contribute to this world.
Plus, you should know that life purpose can be found in a great variety of niches, from relationships and career to service and creativity. And because (as we all know, right?) life is a journey, not a fixed destination, cards can serve as an excellent road map along the way.
Tarot Mirrors Your Soul
It doesn’t really matter what mode you choose, Celtic Cross tarot reading on the web or a private in-person séance, cards never dictate your destiny. Instead, this divination tool reflects what is hidden in your inner world. Every fragment of the deck is the symbol of emotions, archetypal energies, and life experiences. As you shuffle the deck, tarot serves as a mirror. It brings to the surface your deepest fears, values, talents, desires, and all the ingredients of your soul.
If at some point, you pull The Hermit, The Star, or Judgement, it means that the spirits recommend you to wait for moments of awakening or deeper self-realization. These cards encourage you to take a pause for a moment and dedicate some time to deep reflection. What is it that truly matters to you? What is important to you beyond external expectations? Think about that.
Cards Reveal Your Passions and Strengths
In most cases, our life purpose is rooted deeply in things you’re 100% passionate about and your strengths given to you by Mother Nature. With the help of regular tarot readings, one can detect these by paying attention to all the patterns that pop up here and there during many séances. Is it The Empress? It may point to a nurturing or creative path. At the same time, The Magician may highlight your power to create and manifest through your unique talents, while The Chariot is one more reminder that you have that strong inner drive and resilience. If you make sure to approach cards with questions like, “What are my unique gifts?” or “What light do I carry inside me?”, you are sure to gain clarity on what gives you the most energy.
Tarot Cards Help You See Your Core Values Better
An essential part of living a life with a purpose is sticking to your values. If you make sure to ask the right and thoughtful questions, the spirits will help you get a better idea of what you really believe in. If at any point, you see cards like The Hierophant, Temperance, or Justice, think of issues of balance, ethics, or tradition(s) that hide behind your choices. We recommend that you ask things like:
- “What are the biggest values in my life?”
- “What principles should I stick to to make my decisions?”
- “What part of my life doesn’t correspond to my truth?”
If you approach cards with these kinds of questions, you’re sure to learn more about your ideal path.
Reading Sessions Help Explore Life Lessons and Challenges
More often than not, only struggles can help you reveal the purpose of your life. According to the tarot spirits, growth pretty often comes from pain, while a lot of cards represent tougher lessons that life usually gives us generously. For example, if you pull The Tower, the cards may indicate a necessary breakdown before a breakthrough. Do you see Death? It encourages release and transformation, while The Moon tells us about confusion and illusion while also pointing the way to intuition and faith. As you dive into the exploration of these cards, you see how your challenges may be shaping you into the person you’re meant to become.
You Get Guidance During Life Transitions
What is it that you’re engaged in? Ending a painful relationship? Switching careers? Or…maybe you’re just feeling lost? Tarot is the answer. The cards provide both affirmation and guidance. Just make sure to do a simple spread (like something related to your present, past, and future) to see how your past experiences shaped you, at what point you are now, and where exactly you should ‘invest’ your energy in. When facing major life transitions, use cards to find out what this phase is teaching you, what you are being called to step into, or how you can align more deeply with your purpose(s).
Feel Your Intuition and Inner Wisdom Getting More Powerful
Let’s face the truth – your life purpose is something that only you can figure out. No need to use tarot cards as a source of script. They only motivate you to write your own story of life. Regular tarot reading sessions help solidify your connection with your intuition. You learn to listen and finally hear that quiet inner voice that knows what is right and what is wrong.
Before you start your sacred séance, you have to know that finding your life purpose isn’t about having all the answers here and now. It’s about having a strong desire to ask the right questions. It’s about having a beautiful and loyal companion on your tough journey, offering deep insights and a better awareness of what your inner self is all about.
