Okay, so I’ve been messing around with tarot cards lately, trying to get a feel for them. I’m super into the Witchcraft Tarot deck – the artwork is just gorgeous, you know? So, I decided to do a simple one-card pull today to see what the cards had to say.

First, I shuffled the deck really well. I like to fan them out on the table and just kind of swirl them around with my hands until it feels right. Then, I gathered them back up into a neat pile.
Next, I took a few deep breaths, just to center myself and clear my head. I’m trying to get better at focusing my intention, so I held the deck in my hands and thought about a general question: “What energy should I be aware of today?” Not super specific, but I wanted to keep it open.
Then, I cut the deck into three piles, with my left hand, I always used my left hand! and restacked them. Some people do this, some don’t, it’s just something I’ve always done.
Finally, I fanned the cards out again, face down, and just let my hand hover over them. I waited until I felt a little tingle or pull towards a specific card. It’s hard to explain, but it’s like a little magnetic feeling, almost. And there it was! I flipped it over.

The Result
- I drew the Queen of Pentacles.
Okay, so, the Queen of Pentacles, from what I’ve been learning, is all about nurturing, practicality, and being grounded. She’s like, the ultimate earth mother energy. It’s about abundance, but not just in a money way – more like, taking care of yourself and your surroundings.
So my take on this for today? I need to focus on the practical stuff. Maybe do some cleaning, cook a good meal, get some work done. And, most importantly, take care of myself! Maybe a nice long bath tonight. It’s about finding comfort and stability in the everyday things, you know?
I wrote all of this down in my tarot journal, along with the date and time, and any other feelings I had. It’s pretty cool to look back and see how the cards have reflected what’s been going on in my life.
It is all for my pratice today!
