Tarot Spells

Oct 12, 2002 - © Elizabeth Bissette



Spell casting can be combined with meditation. Doing this can help you develop a personal relationship with your cards. It's also a great way to improve your ability to focus and direct your energy.

So, how do you direct your energy and how do you use Tarot cards to help? The most important thing to learn is clearing your mind. Focus on the object of your spell. Just as your most effective readings will occur when your mind is clear, your spells will be more effective when your mind is clear.

Stopping the usual flood of incoming thoughts can be difficult. Choose a card that represents your objective. Look at it or hold the image in your mind with your eyes closed. Try replacing your thoughts as they come to you with the image. Focus on the image and on your breath. Imagine you are breathing in the image and out your thoughts. Accept thoughts as they come, then let them go.

Once you feel your mind is clear, you're ready to do a Tarot spell:

1. Choose an indicator card that represents you and one or two other cards that represent what you would like to achieve. Place them side by side.

2. When you feel you've connected your energy to the cards, stack them together. Bind them with thread in a color that represents your goal.

3. Sleep with the bound stack of cards under your pillow to blend them on a nightly basis with your subconscious energy.

If you like, you can also choose an incense or candle that you feel relates to your objective and burn as you do the spell. You may also want to choose a candle or stone in the color you feel relates to your object to burn or focus on.

Remember, it's not so much the tools as it is the one who utilizes them. Focusing and directing your energy to your tools is the most important part of a spell. It is also important to take some steps in everyday life to help your spell along.
