The Way Spirit Speaks to Me Through Tarot

For years, I’ve poured my energy into understanding the language of tarot. At first, I thought there was only one “right” way to read the cards—a structured, systematic approach where each card has a stand-alone meaning depending on the question being asked. And while that method is useful and valid, I’ve come to realize that tarot is so much more expansive than that.

Over time, I’ve discovered that there are many ways to read tarot, and spirit has shown me how deeply personal and intuitive this journey can be. When I sit with my cards now, something different happens—something sacred. I don’t just pull a card and recite a textbook definition. Each card feels like a character stepping into a movie scene, playing out an action-packed message that’s tailored to the person I’m reading for.

Each card has a personality, a voice, and a purpose. With spirit present, the story unfolds card by card, like a movie reel playing out in front of me. The messages come alive, and I don’t just see meanings—I feel them. Spirit guides me to understand the deeper layers of the reading, and each card connects with the next like a well-written script.

What I’ve also learned, especially when reading in a mediumship space, is that our loved ones on the other side often show up in the cards, revealing their traits and personalities through the imagery and symbolism. It’s like they borrow the cards to show themselves, to speak, to guide.

Sometimes, when spirit wants to give a "recta"—a kind of spiritual recipe or remedy—the cards show me exactly what’s needed for healing, clarity, or closure. The outcome becomes less about prediction and more about preparation. Each card contributes an ingredient to the overall message: a reminder, a warning, a comfort, or a next step.

Reading tarot this way has transformed my practice. It’s no longer just about knowing what the cards mean—it’s about listening to how they speak, especially when spirit is in the room.
