With all the chaos in the world today, a self care practice with Tarot might feel frivolous or like an “extra”. In reality, it is especially important right now. Any self care practices you have, including Tarot, are more important than ever and are especially helpful in these changing times. And making time for our spiritual health is never frivolous, or something to be put off.
It is essential to tune into the larger vision and universal energies in some way. That connection is as important to our spiritual selves as it is to our physical selves that we go to the dentist or eat during the day. If we neglect eating or the dentist, our bodies begin to break down. Likewise, if we neglect our spiritual health, our spirit begins to break down.
Spiritual Health is Essential
Making time to develop your spiritual health is essential to doing any work professionally and socially that you want to do if you want to operate from a place of authenticity and live your personal values.
The reason I love a self care practice with Tarot in particular is that it is very specific and can be easily used with other self-care or spiritual practices. When you choose a card, you have a real tangible focus for a meditation or journaling or whatever else you choose to do. Sometimes a lack of focus can be the hard part of those other practices, and pulling a Tarot card with them can make all the difference.
So the next time you wonder, “Is Tarot actually important right now?” do a little reading and see for yourself. Pull just one card for your day today and see how it can help you focus your energies.
