For today I
wanted to write about a little exercise I've created: Creating your own magical
wish list
Sometimes
we exactly know what we want and we can wish
for it. But other times our desires remain a bit foggy and cloudy. Deep down we
know, we feel what we want, but it is difficult to put words to those feelings.
Now isn't it handy we have a deck of 78
cards which contains numerous words which pop up immediately when even we look
at such a card. Yes, tarot can be our instant wish list. Similar to my Gift boxexercise this is a free association
game, which is also a fun way to get acquainted with a new deck.
So this is how is goes:You sit quietly with you deck, shuffle it
thoroughly, pick a card, say : “I wish…...”
and turn the card around. Then say whatever comes to mind and that will
be your wish. You can repeat this as often as you want and wish and wish and
wish…..
These are a
few of my wishes, triggered by The Hidden Realm Tarot:
Life
Renewed: I wish it was Autumn
Ten of
Cups: I wish I was a more passionate cook
Feary
stallion: I wish I could go horseback riding along the seashore
Nine of
Swords: I wish could let go of fearful thoughts more easy
Five of
Pentacles: I wish I could be more compassionate
You might
want to put the most prominent and surprising wishes on you altar or a cabinet
so you won’t forget what you've wished for.
When you
want to take it one step further you could rephrase your wishes (passive) into affirmations
(active): “I wish I was a more passionate
cook” versus “I am a talented cook who enjoys to cook a tasteful dinner for her
family”
I hope you
will enjoy this little exercise
