Weaving Stories with Tarot: Unlocking Meaningful Readings
One of the most captivating aspects of the art of tarot is the ability to weave stories and narratives through the cards. Today, we'll dive into the secrets of crafting flowing, cohesive readings that captivate and inspire. At the heart of this technique is our unique system, which is based on keywords.
Keywords: The Building Blocks of Tarot
In the High Priestess Tarot School, we begin by assigning keywords to each card. These keywords serve as the foundational building blocks for your readings. The keywords provide depth, color, and meaning to each card.
Our unique approach emphasizes understanding and embracing keywords. They are the keys to unlock the stories hidden within the tarot. By exploring the keywords assigned to each card, we tap into a wellspring of interpretations, allowing the cards to come alive with purpose and significance.
Crafting a Cohesive Reading
The magic of weaving a story in your tarot reading lies in the seamless flow from one card to the next. It's about creating a narrative that not only makes sense but also touches the heart and soul of the querent. Here's how you can do it:
Start with the Scene: Begin your reading by setting the scene. Describe the current situation or question that the querent is bringing to the table. Use keywords to paint a vivid picture of the present.
Characters in the Cards: Each card is a character in your story. Explore the keywords of the first card, linking them to the scene you've set. How does this character fit into the current situation? What role do they play?
Transitioning with Keywords: As you move to the next card, consider how its keywords connect to the previous card's narrative. Are they in conflict, harmony, or transformation? This is where the story truly begins to unfold.
The Plot Thickens: With each new card, the plot thickens. Use the keywords to build suspense, intrigue, or revelation. Let the story evolve naturally, drawing the querent into its depths.
The Climax and Resolution: Your final card should be the climax and resolution of the story. How do its keywords tie all the elements together? What is the ultimate message or guidance for the querent?
