Using Tarot Cards in Spells
|
Using Tarot Cards in spells is something that is as old as the Tarot itself. Each card holds unto itself a power that can be the focal point of any spell that you wish to cast. However, like all spells, one needs to be mindful of the effects that it will have and how far reaching it will be once cast.
It is recommended to have a separate deck for reading and one for casting spells with, as the energies used for spell casting may affect the readings the cards give later down the road. Here is a small list compiled to help you with some ideas on what cards to use and for which purposes. Here are some suggested cards to use in spell work and their correspondences. This is not a complete listing only suggestions: Action/to set things in motion: The Chariot, Ace of Wands, Eight of Wands To overcome a bad habit: Strength, Temperance, Judgement, The World For inspiration, ideas and creativity: The Magician, The Moon, The Star New business/project success: The Magician, The Sun, Ace of Wands Business prosperity: Three of Wands, The Sun, Ace of Pentacles To bring about change: Wheel of Fortune, The Magician, Eight of Wands, Judgement Fertility: The Sun, Ten of Cups, Ace of Wands For success: The Chariot, Six of Wands, Five of Wands For courage: The Star, Strength, The Chariot To help with a decision: Justice, The Hermit, The Star, The Lovers For dream work: The Star, The Moon, Ace of Cups, High Priestess Happiness and positive energy: The Sun, The World, Ace of Cups To release guilt and pain: The Moon, Judgement, The World For binding spells: Temperance, Two of Swords, Eight of Swords, Hanged Man Friendship: Three of Cups, Two of Cups, Knight of Cups Healing and good health: Strength, The World, The Magician, The Sun, The Star, Three of Cups For employment: Eight of Pentacles, The Emperor, Judgement, Page of Wands For knowledge: The Hermit, High Priestess, The Moon For love: The Lovers, Knight of Cups, The Star Luck: The World, The Star, Wheel of Fortune Prosperity and money: Ten of Pentacles, Knight of Pentacles, Page of Pentacles, Six of Pentacles, Ace of Pentacles Overcoming obstacles: Two of Cups, The Chariot, Strength For protection: The Star, The Chariot, Temperance, Four of Wands Self-improvement and transformation: Temperance, The World, Judgement, The Magician, Strength, High Priestess, The Chariot Stress relief: Hanged Man, Ace of Cups, Temperance, Four of Cups |
