Okay, so I’ve been diving deep into Tarot lately, and “The Chariot” card keeps popping up in my love readings. It’s supposed to be all about willpower and overcoming obstacles, but what does that actually mean in a relationship? I decided to put it to the test.
My Chariot Love Experiment
First, I pulled the Chariot card for myself, focusing on my current relationship. We’ve been having some, uh, discussions lately about future plans. You know, the usual “where is this going” kind of stuff. The card seemed to be saying, “Get your act together and figure out what YOU want!”
So, that’s what I did. I spent a few days really thinking about my desires, not just reacting to his. I journaled, I meditated (well, I tried to meditate, I’m not very good at it), and I even talked to my best friend about it all.
- Step 1: Deep, honest self-reflection. No sugar-coating!
- Step 2: Brutally honest journaling. Even the scary stuff.
- Step 3: Getting an outside perspective (thanks, Sarah!).
- Step 4: Trying to clam myself, then make a decision.
It wasn’t easy. Turns out, I had some conflicting desires myself! But after all that soul-searching, I realized I did want a future with him, but I needed to be clearer about my own needs and boundaries. The Chariot energy was kicking in! I was feeling more confident and in control.
Then came the hard part: talking to him. I took a deep breath and explained my feelings, my fears, and my hopes. I didn’t accuse or blame, just focused on what I needed. And guess what? He actually listened!
We talked for hours (okay, maybe it was more like a few intense conversations over a week), and we actually made some progress! We didn’t magically solve everything, but we created a plan to keep communicating and working towards a shared vision. It felt like we were finally pulling in the same direction, just like those horses on the Chariot card.
So, my takeaway? The Chariot in love isn’t about winning or being right. It’s about having the courage to be honest with yourself and your partner, and then working together to overcome the inevitable bumps in the road. It’s about steering your own “chariot” with intention and determination. I’m still learning, but this experiment definitely showed me the power of that Chariot energy!
