How drawing a tarot card in the morning can help you write more
Even if the card says you will do a mediocre job.
I wake up to birds singing their birdy song. I take it as a sign that spring is coming to Kyiv. I break my fast and sprint to a coffee shop to start the last week at my current job. I’ll be Anton Jobless soon. I feel like the space of freedom is expanding around me, but I wonder if it’ll shrink in time, too. Choices are seemingly limitless, a human being is not. We can do what we can do. We can, probably, leap beyond our standard capacity, but we can’t move mountains despite what a proverb claims. As such, it takes some pressure off. Let nature deal with mountains while we deal with ourselves.
Before leaving my flat, I did one curious and new thing: draw a tarot card from a tarot deck. My boyfriend bought the deck yesterday in an esoteric shop on Podil. At the moment, he’s reading a book about mages and witches. The book kindly suggested to buy a tarot deck and use it as a tool for guidance, and not necessarily spiritual. You take a deck, ask a question you want to work on, shuffle cards and either pick one to get a straight answer or three cards to put the answer into the perspective of past, present and future.
You don’t have to know anything about tarot.
