Okay, so I had this thing I wanted to figure out, right? I was stuck on a decision and my brain was just going in circles. I saw this tarot card, the High Priestess, pop up in a daily draw, and I’d heard people say it’s all about intuition and stuff. Honestly, I used to think that stuff was a bit woo-woo, but I figured, why not try using it as a prompt to guide me? I mean, I had nothing to lose.
So, first things first, I pulled out my tarot deck. I’m no expert, but I know the basics. I shuffled the cards, really focusing on the decision I was trying to make. Then, I laid out a simple three-card spread – past, present, and future. And guess what? The High Priestess showed up right in the middle, in the present position.
I dug around online to see what that might mean. Lots of sites said stuff about trusting your gut, listening to your inner voice, blah blah. It all seemed kinda vague, but then I saw somewhere that this card can be about taking action by NOT taking action. Sounds weird, I know, but it got me thinking. Maybe I was overthinking things, trying to force a decision.
So, I decided to try an experiment. Instead of actively trying to make the decision, I’d just let it sit in the back of my mind. I went about my day, doing normal stuff – work, chores, whatever. But every time that decision popped into my head, I’d just acknowledge it and then shift my focus to something else. I would be aware of my feelings as I went about my day, to see if anything bubbled up from my subconscious.
It was actually kinda hard at first. I’m used to just powering through things, making lists, weighing pros and cons. But I stuck with it. And you know what? Slowly but surely, things started to become clearer. It was like my intuition was whispering to me when I finally stopped all the other noise in my head.
The weirdest part was, one day I just woke up and knew what to do. It wasn’t like a big “Aha!” moment, more like a gentle nudge in the right direction. I just felt this sense of calm and certainty that I hadn’t felt before. I had previously pulled the High Priestess in reverse, which I read was a sign of not trusting myself, so this was a big improvement!
- I made the decision based on that feeling.
- I took the action that felt right, even though it wasn’t the most logical choice on paper.
- And so far, it’s been working out great.
I’m still kinda amazed that this whole High Priestess thing actually worked. It’s definitely made me more open to listening to my intuition. It’s like there’s this whole other level of knowing that I’ve been ignoring. It’s not about being psychic or anything, just about paying attention to those subtle feelings and nudges that we all get.
So yeah, that’s my little story about how the High Priestess card helped me take action by not taking action. It might not be for everyone, but it’s definitely something I’ll be trying again next time I’m stuck on something. It was a pretty cool reminder that sometimes, the best thing to do is just to chill out and let your inner wisdom do its thing.
