Okay, so, I’ve been messing around with this tarot thing lately, and I stumbled upon something called “tarot birthday.” Sounds kinda cool, right? I was curious, so I decided to figure out what it’s all about.

First, I had to dig up some info on how to actually calculate this thing. Turns out, it’s not that hard. You just take your birth date and add up all the numbers until you get a single digit, or a number between 1 and 22. Each of those numbers corresponds to a card in the Major Arcana of the tarot deck. Simple enough.
For example, I was born on May 28, 1992. So, I wrote down 05/28/1992. Then I started adding: 5 + 2 + 8 + 1 + 9 + 9 + 2 = 36. 3 + 6 = 9. I made it!
My Tarot Birthday Card
Number 9 in the Major Arcana is The Hermit. Cool, huh?
Next, I wanted to know what this card was supposed to mean. I found out that each tarot birthday card represents some core personality traits and life lessons. The Hermit is all about introspection, seeking wisdom, and going on a journey of self-discovery. I started to read up everything I could find on The Hermit, looking at different interpretations and stuff, which was pretty interesting.

- Introspection: This totally makes sense. I do like to spend time alone, thinking things through.
- Seeking Wisdom: Yeah, I’m always trying to learn new things and figure out the meaning of life, I guess.
- Self-Discovery: That’s a big one. I feel like I’m constantly evolving and trying to understand myself better.
After I had a good grasp of my tarot birthday card, I thought it would be fun to compare it with my astrological sign, Gemini. I noticed some interesting parallels. Geminis are known for being curious and adaptable, which kinda ties into The Hermit’s search for knowledge and going with the flow on that inner journey. It’s like two sides of the same coin.
Then, I pulled out my tarot deck and spent some time just looking at The Hermit card. I tried to meditate on its imagery and symbolism. It was a nice way to connect with the energy of the card and see how it resonated with me on a deeper level. I’ve been keeping it on my desk as a reminder to stay true to my path and keep seeking that inner wisdom.
This whole tarot birthday thing was a pretty cool experience. I learned a bit about myself, had some fun with tarot, and found a new way to look at my personal growth. It’s definitely something I’ll keep exploring!
