Okay, so I’ve been diving deep into the Tarot lately, and “Chariot” card keeps popping up. Not just in readings, but like, everywhere. It felt like the universe was screaming at me, so I decided to really live the Chariot energy for a week. See what happens, you know?
Getting Started – What’s Chariot All About?
First, I needed to really get my head around the Chariot. It’s all about willpower, determination, and moving forward, right? It’s about taking control and steering your life in the direction you want it to go. Sounds good in theory, but how do you actually do that?
My Chariot Week – Buckle Up!

Monday: Declaring My Intentions
I started by, well, starting. I wrote down everything I wanted to achieve this week. No more vague wishes – I got specific. Finish that online course, finally organize my closet, start that exercise plan I’ve been putting off… The whole nine yards. Then, I visualized myself actually doing these things, feeling the success. It was kinda like making a contract with myself.

Tuesday: Facing the Resistance
Oh boy, this is where it got real. All those little voices in my head started whispering their doubts. “You’re too tired to exercise,” “That course is too hard,” “Just leave the closet for another day.” It was like battling those sphinxes on the Chariot card! I literally had to tell myself, “Nope, not today, distractions!” And I pushed through. Started with just 10 minutes of exercise, worked on one small module of the course. Baby steps, but forward movement.

Wednesday: Harnessing the Energy
I started to feel a shift. It was like the act of pushing through the resistance actually gave me more energy. I felt… focused. Like, I had blinders on, and all I could see was my goals. I even tackled a couple of extra tasks I hadn’t planned on, just because I felt so in the zone.

Thursday: Staying on Track
This was a test. A friend invited me out for drinks, and honestly, I really wanted to go. But I knew it would derail my evening routine and my plans for Friday morning. So, I did something I rarely do – I said no. It felt… powerful. Like I was truly in control of my choices.

Friday: Mini-Victories!
The closet was done! Okay, maybe not perfectly, but it was a HUGE improvement. I finished another module of the course. And I felt… good. Really good. Like I’d actually accomplished something substantial.

Weekend: Reflection and Refocusing
I didn’t get everything done, but I got things moving. Not being perfect is part of the journey. This whole Chariot thing? It’s not about being a robot, it’s about consciously choosing where you put your energy. And that’s something I can keep working on, every single day.
So, that was my week of living the Chariot. It wasn’t always easy, but it was definitely eye-opening. I’m still no expert, but I’m starting to understand what it really means to take the reins of your own life. And it feels pretty damn good.
