THE CHARIOT TAROT CARD

 Here we see a man in armor driving a chariot with two horses, one is white and the other black. He looks determined and aggressive. The chariot is a tool for combat. The chariot doesn't ride on one straight line, it has the ability to charge at it's opponent in many ways, usually sideways. (Never let them see you coming).When you see the Chariot in a reading this is what you need to know. The Chariot represents the following:


  • The Chariot means conquest and over coming opposition-look at this guys eyes, staring right at you telling you I'm coming your way and I'm getting what I want.
  • The Chariot request that you assert yourself and be bold and daring and this how you will conquest
  • You need to be confident and express your needs and wants
  • It can mean that you find this conquest to be exciting and therefore you don't mind the rigors of what's required
  • The Chariot card means that you will be successful at fighting for what you want and deserve although it will be challenging, you will prevail. 
  • You need to take care of yourself and express your needs and wants if you want to get it. There is no room for shyness and low self-esteem right now. More forward confidently that you will receive what you want and need.
  • The background is a nice yellow positive color and in the backdrop perhaps his castle, whom he needs to protect. And this he will do.
     
  • The Chariot is a warrior card and you will be VICTORIOUS!!!! 
On the other hand, it may be warning you that you need to stop being so aggressive around people because this is not good. However, there always comes a time when we need to fight for what we feel is ours and we do it with will power, confidence and determination and this is what this card is all about. He wears Moons on his shoulders and the horses although black and white can be maneuvered accordingly although one represents light and the other darkness. This is the card of Cancer.  He is conquering his negativity (black) and succeeding with positivism and a great deal of confidence and determination. DON'T ALLOW ANYONE TO LIMIT YOU.

THE MAGICIAN

The magician is a wonderful card to have in your reading because he is a "Magician". He can make anything happen. It front of him he has all the tools he needs, the wands (creativity), the sword, (verbal ability), pentacles (money) and cups or chalice (emotions). The Magician indicates that you are using all your tools and that you will succeed in whatever you may desire at this time.


  • The Magician says act NOW to get what you want
  • Because you have the tools and power to achieve what you want
  • You must be clear of what you want and how you may want to achieve it
  • The Magician is a Healer, Shaman and a Prophet
  • He is telling you that you have pulled all your tools, resources and  skills together to pull off the magic you want. 
  • This card =SUCCESS
The Magician is also a very nice card to look at. He is dressed in a brightly colored red robe, there is a bright yellow background, like the Sun. He raises his wand to the sky signifying he is in tune with the heavens, earth, water and air. He is in harmony with all his resources and this is why he is successful. There is the sign of infinity over his head, meaning that what goes around comes around. This is his time to shine and be great.

THE LOVERS TAROT CARD

Now this is an interesting card. Two naked people and above a guardian angel. Angels usually represent earthly desires. The Lovers Card is a bit contradictory. You see two lovers and automatically think this card is all about LOVE. You may say to yourself that by having this card appear in a reading it means that you will find true and lasting love. But this card comes with a punch. I will show you the card that actually means true love and connection but let me explain the Lovers card first.

  • This card has more to do with lust than with everlasting love
  • It has to do with feeling a physical attraction to someone
  • It may mean that you may marry and form a union with someone else but it's unlikely
  • It has to do with instant gratification
  • Most importantly, this card has to do with making choices, moral choices. When this card comes up it usually means that you may be contemplating doing something that may have a large impact on your life maybe not now but sooner or later. Like have an affair. 

So, here is the angel, snakes wrapped around trees and it reminds me of the garden of eden. The angel of desire is giving them a choice. Should you go for it? Feed you lust, desire at any expense?

The card that I believe stands for true unity, commitment and a sense of security in a relationship is the Two of Cups. The Cups Suit in the tarot is all about Feelings and Emotions. Since the Lovers card is a Major Arcana card, it has alot of pull but it has a double meaning to it. So when you do see this card in a reading ask yourself if it's gonna be worth it in the long run.
Two of Cups
This is the card you are looking for as far as a true Lovers Card.

THE SUN TAROT CARD

The sun, I cannot imagine what would happen to us without it. It provides heat, warm, growth, illumination and so much more. "The sun will come out tomorrow" brings us hope, that tomorrow is another day, another chance for us to thrive as humans. When you see this card in a reading, think of the word "Success". Success  is what the card offers you in a reading. Opposite is the Moon. I've already described what the Moon means, insecurity, indecision, fogginess, inability to make changes. The Sun, on the other hand is the opposite of the Moon in a reading. The Moon is the mother, the Sun, the father. Our father, the Sun is brilliant and positive. One cannot exist without the other. We need both.
The Sun is a beautiful card to look at. There is a child riding a white horse waving a flag, sunflowers and the rays of a brilliant sun. What does this mean for you in a reading?
  • Success, radiance and abundance.
  • You are on your way to achieving your goals
  • People love you because of your warmth and sincerity
  • It represents luck, wellness and a positive attitude
  • Total confidence in yourself
  • New Beginnings!!!
The sun is one of the best cards you can have dealt in a reading. Enjoy it.

DEATH TAROT CARD

Oh, how we hate this card coming up in a reading. The Grim Reaper is coming for us. The skeleton on the horse carrying a flag in a grey cast sky. This is not a great card but it's not what you may think. It could very well signify what it implies, that someone may die, including the person who is getting the reading but it's unlikely. The true meaning of this card is pretty simple. Thank Goodness that the reaper is not looking at you or me in the reading, he is looking straight forward, moving ahead. The sky is gray not black, makes a big difference. He carries the flag of "surrender".
Take a look, he's leaving bodies as he goes at a steady pace. He is leaving his old body behind. Although there is a grey background there is also color in the card. This card is about "Transformations".

WHAT THE HECK IS A PENTACLE, PENTIGRAM? IS IT WICKED?

The pentacle is, as per the dictionary: a talisman, a magical object typically disk shaped and inscribed with a pentagram or other figure. Now, tell me the truth: You see, let's say, a woman walking towards you and she's wearing a pentacle around her neck, simply a five pointed star with one point aligned upwards and you say to yourself "STAY AWAY FROM THE WITCH". Or, you may say, "OH, NO A DEMON WORSHIPER". But what is I told you that the pentacle has been around for many many years. Oh yes. Did you know that:
    Tarot Reader
  • The Medal of Honor is a pentacle- Yes indeed Bob, the medal of honor, the highest medal for valor in combat is a pentacle. Also known as The Congressional Medal of Honor because the president awards it via Congress.
  • Did you know that the five points of the pentacle has been known to represent the five wounds of Christ. 
  • That it has been widely used by past Christians as an amulet.
  • That it has been referred to the Star of Bethlehem.
  • That it's referred to as being the star that led the wise men to Jesus.
  • It also represents the five elements, air, fire, water, earth and the top point representing spirit. Used by the Wiccans in the religion of Wicca. 
  • It also represents one of suits of the Tarot Cards. The suit of Pentacles, originally the coins. Also now, the suit of diamonds in playing cards.
The pentacle has long been worn as a protective measure or tool much like the cross. People carry their lucky rabbits foot, AA people carry around their marbles (this is a long story, I won't go into it now) but you get the pic. 



Pentacle
Now, there is the inverted pentagram. This is the one you want to fear. This is the religious symbol of Baphomet or Satanism. The official symbol of The Church of Satan is that of the Sigil of Baphomet, also known as the inverted pentagram. See pic below.
Inverted Pentagram

THE STAR TAROT CARD

The Star Tarot Card is exactly what it implies. Hope!!!!, Guidance!!! Faith!!!! What happens when "We Wish Upon A Star"? Well, .......... this is what the Star Tarot Card represents. Just by looking at the card we think of peace, hope and forever wishes. The kneeling maiden that rejuvenates herself through the flowing waters is a forever process and this is what the star does, it's equals rejuvenation. The sky is blue, a beautiful blue, the grass is green. Colors have a lot to do with the tarot cards.  It's a beautiful and inspiring card. I've included three so that you can see how beautiful this card is. What could it possibly mean when it appears in a reading? If you have been going through a tough time, the star signifies that things will get better, there is hope and rejuvenation in the air. It could also mean that you are or will soon be a star. I'm not necessarily implying that you will be a movie star but a star in whatever it is that you are doing with your life. The star at your job, the star of the football team, so on. It also means that you will have a handle on things and feel like a star. It depends on what the other cards are present in your reading. All in all, it's a wonderful card to have appear in a reading.

THE STRENGTH TAROT CARD

Oh, so how to tame the beast? The Strength Tarot Card is not at all about physical strength, it's about another type of strength, inner power. If you look at the card there is a maiden, a young woman, taming a ferocious lion. She's not enforcing any brutal punishment on the beast she is simply placing her hand on it, caressing it and loving it. Who is this beast? This is me and you. We all have that beast inside of us that needs to be tamed at times. If you notice the infinity sign above her head, the infinity sign in this case pertains to both the beast and the maiden becoming one. She's making the lion a bit more like her and the lion is accepting this but when she needs to be more like the lion, she can be. So the beast, in this case the lion, always needs more, more food, mates or whatever it needs. It's ferocious needs consume him. The maiden may also have the same needs, but with self love she can tame these needs and wants just as she tames the lion.

You see this card is about you, not the lion. The beast itself is an example of enormous strength.


  • Do you need all the strength inside you to take on a challenge? You do have it. Love yourself and be patient with yourself and you will have the strength you need.
  • Are you trying to avoid some excesses in your life. Over eating, drugs, anything that is not making you feel good about yourself? Love yourself!!!! Be gentle and kind to yourself.
Don't get me wrong. Sometimes we have to be cunning like the lion to succeed. Do whatever it is you need to do to tame the beast inside you but also do all you can do to succeed over your challenge. 
Also, generally speaking, when we see a wreath in a tarot card, this signifies VICTORY.  So, basically when you see this card in a reading you will be victorious with whatever challenges are ahead.

THE DEVIL TAROT CARD....HERE HE COMES

What a scary card to be dealt. We see the devil and automatically we think we are doomed to hell. From now on we might as well live in a cave because all that will follow is evil and bad luck. The devil sure does bring about these feelings. As ugly and as menacing as he may seem, the Devil is here to to inform us that we are human. Human beings forget that sometimes we have that little devil sitting on our shoulder going, "Go ahead, do it, no one will ever know". Or he may whisper in your ear, "One more is not going hurt". Yes, the Devil reminds us that we are all capable of addictions, over indulgence and doing bad things. As you look at the card you will notice two people a male and female with chains around their necks. They aren't really bonded to him, they can unchain themselves whenever they want. They seem to be there on their own free will. They seem pretty comfortable to me. The Devil is just looming over them and suggesting things to them. He is ugly and menacing . When we see the Devil in a reading, you need to ask yourself some questions. For instance:


  • Are you going through any addictions lately? Can't break free?
  • Or is someone you know bound to bad habits, addictions?
  • Are you thinking of cheating, breaking the law, running a muck? Is someone close to you a bad influence, or are they going through this?
  • Do you have bad habits that you wish you could break free from?
Just remember, we have choices with the Devil. He is in all of us. But we do have free will. If we really wanted to we could break free. This card could signify drug or alcohol addiction, shopping addiction, sex addiction, breaking the law, committing a crime, cheating on a spouse/mate. These all the possibilities with the Devil. But we don't have do live that life. When we see the Devil, just remember that your spirituality is suffering for some reason and you have to commit to getting back on track before it's too late. He is just letting you know that he's lurking over your shoulder. Break free from the Devil.

THE HIGH PRIESTESS TAROT CARD

The High Priestess. Wow. She is Beautiful!!!!! Who is she? The High Priestess is a calm and serene woman. She is certainly in control. She sits quietly in the forest in tune with nature waiting for you to call upon her. On her lap, she holds a scroll. Her intuition is keen. She knows all but doesn't announce it. She is very quiet about what she knows. She's the Moon Goddess. Just like to Moon Tarot card that holds intuitive powers, she is the same. A powerful, intuitive, peaceful and beautiful woman who does not have to prove herself to no one. She's almost holy. We all want what she has, that self confidence in all she does. Why? Because she knows things. In her scroll she holds secrets. Secrets about the universe, about nature, about everything. Beside her thrown, because remember, she is a goddess are two pillars. Each pillar has an initial, a B and a J. These initials go back to Solomon's Temple representing Jachin and Boaz. One is black and one is white. Negative vs. Positive. The High Priestess is very very intuitive, all knowing and very spiritual. Haven't you ever met anyone who reminds you of her. That man or woman who is self-confident, has little to say but always knows how to answer you. That person who seems grounded, nothing shakes them, seems to know what is coming down the path and isn't at all worried. 


From the Rider-Waite Tarot Deck

  • When the High Priestess shows up in your reading, you may be asked to be a little more like her, intuitive, spiritual, practical, self confident, serene. 
  • Or, could someone be holding back on you, is someone keeping secrets from you. The reader will be looking out for other cards in your reading, this may be the case.
  • Or, could you be holding a dear secret to yourself? Maybe you need to ask yourself if perhaps you should confide in someone. Sometimes keeping secrets is not good for you. 
  • Or, maybe she's just letting you know that you should keep certain secrets to yourself right now.
All in all, the Moon Goddess, the High Priestess is a great card to show up in a reading. She is a positive card all the way. She may be telling us simply to keep healthy, mind, body and soul. She is in tune with the black and the white, the positive and the negative. She has accepted both good and bad and she has the wisdom to do so. Get your reading today, www.fullmoontarotreadings.net

THE TERRIFYING TOWER TAROT CARD

Here we have it. The card that looks dreadful. It's the dreaded Tower Card. It's absolutely interesting to look at this card. Lightning, fire, people falling to their death. If there was ever a card that no one should look forward to seeing in their reading, it's this one. But all cards, no matter how bad they can be, have a positive side. The Tower Card signifies destruction. Life as you once knew it will not be. A disaster is looming and you have no control over it. Like rain, you cannot stop it. It could mean divorce or health issues, if present with other cup cards. It could be a downfall in finances (loss of a job) if combined with the Pents. It could be anything. If in the present position in your reading, watch out. If in the future position you can try and prevent "the catastrophe". This is the card that can even mean the death of a loved one. And it could literally mean the destruction of a tower. I gave a reading right before 911. The person worked at the twin towers at the time and decided not to go to work that day. Intuition told her that something was looming, something dark and dreadful. And literally on 9 /11 towers did collapse.
