ALL DAY DIVINING (A.D.D.)
How to Learn, Play, and Utilize the Tarot to Achieve “Divine” Work/Life Balance by V.
Between working a “socially acceptable” 9-5, being a mother to a very active and sports-involved son, AND building a tarot brand, one could say that every minute of my day is accounted for and then some. To maintain my sanity, stay present for my career, be an outstanding mom and rock out for my “Tarot BFF” clientele, I practice “All-Day Divining” (A.D.D.) – my personal practice of putting my passion in the front seat of a very practical life and allowing it to guide me to the promised land of “divine” balance. For me tarot is a way of life and I honestly don’t know how I would function day-to-day without it. With so many responsibilities, I had to find a way to weave the one passion that inspires me like nothing else into the fabric of my waking hours. I’ve tried to schedule and fit it into a nice box with a pretty bow, but it ultimately wreaked havoc on my personal and professional life. My way of tarot needed to breathe and demonstrate how it could make me a better co-worker, friend, mother, and tarot professional. Using A.D.D. exercises teaches me more about the cards through real world applications and allows me to honor my gift while having fun. Here are a few of the A.D.D. exercises I love doing: Card of the Day (RedLight of the Day) • As soon as you’re awake in the morning, grab your deck and pull a card. This message will be your theme for the day. Think about it as you get yourself and your family ready for work/school in the morning and try to predict how the message resonates with your day. You can leave it on the nightstand or stick it in your purse/work bag to take with you to remind you of its guidance. • If you are tech savvy and have the time, make a video and/or post about the card to your social media sites. As all messages are Universal, you never know who may need to hear what you have to say. Characters of the Court • Assign Court personalities to your family, friends, bosses, or co-workers. Notice if they are strictly one character or if they could be a mix of two; e.g., your 2-years divorced Queen of Swords female co-worker who is hard on everybody, is beginning to throw everyone off with her burgeoning Page of Cups attitude of smiling and leaving her door open to engage in random chit chat. Maybe she’s dating again or maybe she got a new puppy. All you know is that she is opening up to being more friendly and that is pleasant for the working environment. You can throw cards to her motives/reasoning later if you want to know if and how it may affect you in the long run. • Learning to read Court cards can be a bit tricky. To give practical application to understanding them better, use your “Work Court” and watch how they interact with one another. If they pop up in a reading, you automatically have a reference to fall back on to connect the dots. • Determine your “Royalty.” When sharing space with those in your work life or personal life, you can decide how the interaction plays out. If the person in question is acting like a Knight of Wands, conjure up the traits of the Queen of Wands and offer subtle nurturing, guidance, and receptivity while encouraging the spirit and fire toward whatever situation is at hand. Make all of your interactions worth your time and as positive as possible. “Spread” It Out • If you are like me with a desk job, trying to improve and maintain physical health by eating every three hours and incorporating movement is important. To keep you on track, pull a card for 1st snack and then again at lunch. Take a short walk each time to get your blood pumping and use the time to think about the meanings of the cards you pulled and how they fit into the time and space you are currently in. • When making dinner (or driving to a restaurant if eating out on the town), turn on one song at random and when it’s over, ascribe a tarot card to sum up its meaning or whatever message you received from the lyrics. • At the end of the day, pull out your “Card of the Day,” your “snack/lunch” cards, and your “random song message” card and lay them all out in front of you with the Card of the Day placed above the other three. What did your day look like? What did you learn from the day? How did all of the cards play into your theme? Meditate on the information and journal it to help you wind down for a good night’s sleep. By incorporating A.D.D. into my every day, I find that I am happier, am able to grow and maintain personal and professional relationships, nurture my mind, body and spirit, and create an overall balance that is driven by my passion.

Ta da! The first ever Readers Studio Twitter chat!! Hello! My name's Siobhan and this year will be just my second ever Readers Studio! My introduction to the event came through Twitter via Theresa Reed’s feed. I was blown away that a tarot superstar like Theresa would take the time to extend a warm invitation to the Readers Studio to a stranger like me! It was one of the things that helped me decide to go! I like connecting on Twitter because it feels as close as you can get to a real conversation. As a super-introverted person and a writer, social networking sometimes comes easier than socializing face-to-face. It just so happens one of my best friends is a writer based in New York City. (I’m originally from NYC too!) Through her feed I realized that #twitterchat is a THING, and through her I’ve been exposed to the #spiritchat, the #pfwchat, and more! When I saw these Twitter chats I thought I’d LOVE to participate in a tarot-focused chat but I couldn’t find one. So I hopped on the Readers Studio Facebook group to see if anyone might be interested in chatting about tarot on Twitter. They were!!

Siobhan @siobhansmirror PsychWise – Tarot & Psychology Q & A with Elinor Greenberg, PhD, CGP, CPTR HOW TO USE MULTIPLE DECKS IN A SINGLE READING PART 1: PROJECTIVE TAROT COUNSELING TECHNIQUES ![]() QUESTION: I have dozens of Tarot decks that I bought because they looked interesting. I always intend to use them in a reading, but somehow I always end up choosing my trusty favorite deck instead. I find that when I look closely at my new decks, I either don’t feel as confident about knowing their meanings or I only really like the artwork on some of the cards. Do you have any suggestions about how I can put these other decks to use? ANSWER: Definitely. I have the same "problem." I love buying new decks
============================================================and I fall in love with each new deck—for about three days. Unfortunately, I seem to be basically monogamous and I then go back to using my Rider-Waite-Smith Deck for every reading. The exception is once a year when I am at the Tarot School’s Readers Studio Tarot Conference. Somehow this event brings out my creative and daring side and by the end of the weekend, I feel confident reading with virtually any deck. This, of course, only encourages me to buy more decks. However, since I hate feeling guilty, I have developed various creative ways to use these other decks in order to rationalize my continued deck buying sprees. Most of these ways do not require me to learn any new meanings for the cards, which is a big plus because, despite my good intentions, I rarely get around to reading the little white book that comes with each deck, let alone memorizing a batch of new meanings. Below are some of my favorite ways to use multiple decks. They rather neatly divide into two categories (1) Tarot Counseling projective readings (2) Adjuncts to divination readings. This month I will be writing about using multiple decks in Tarot Counseling projective readings, and in the next column I will describe how to use them in divination readings. TAROT COUNSELING PROJECTIVE READINGS As a psychotherapist, I know that I can get a great deal of valuable information by interrupting my clients’ usual way of talking about their issues. Most people get caught up in telling the same sad story—the problem— over and over again until it is so fixed in their own mind that they have trouble envisioning any new solutions. If I let them continue, I will have to work very hard to have any impact at all. I have found Tarot cards can often quickly assist my clients to take a fresh look at their situation. Each deck has its own novel perspective and can give clients additional ways of conceptualizing their situation. In addition, my clients’ response to the evocative pictures on Tarot cards tells a lot about their personality that I am unlikely to find out simply by taking a history or asking them questions. There is something deep, basic and primal about what attracts, repels, or bores us. When I ask clients to tell me their reactions to the pictures or to choose between decks and explain why they like one better than another, we inevitably get into interesting conversations that shed light on how they think, what they feel, and what they want. Here are some basic exercises that I do. They can be used alone or in combination with one another. I usually introduce them quite simply. I say something like: “Would you be willing to do an experiment using Tarot cards?” I find that it can be very useful to notice which decks and which pictures speak to us, and which repel us or seem uninteresting.” If the client is willing, I choose one of the following exercises or make up a new one. PROJECTIVE TAROT COUNSELING EXERCISES: 1. Which deck is “me” and which deck is least “me”? This exercise grew out of an experience that I had over lunch with a new Tarot friend. We had both brought our favorite Tarot reading deck and exchanged readings with each other. Mine was the Rider/Waite/Smith deck and hers was the “Paulina Tarot” by Paulina Cassidy published by U.S. Games. I like the Rider/Waite/Smith deck because I can see at a glance what is going on in the card and I find it easy to distinguish the four suits from each other. When I first looked at my friend’s Paulina deck, I found that I had to look much more closely at each card in order to see what was actually pictured. If you want to see what I mean, “Google” the Paulina Tarot and the R/W/S (if you do not already own them) and compare Key 16 The Tower from each deck, or Key 5 The Hierophant. We discussed our choice of decks with each other and it quickly became apparent that my new friend was a much more subtle person than I. I valued quick, clear, immediate impressions over subtlety, and she valued the chance to go deeper and deeper into the card, getting drawn in by its levels and levels of tiny details. We agreed that our preferences were a direct reflection of our personalities. I realized that my multiple decks could be used as projective tests for my clients (and for myself) because our deck choices are direct reflections of our personality. I used that principle to develop the “Which deck is ‘me’ and which deck is least ‘me’?” exercise below. INSTRUCTIONS Put out 5 different Tarot decks, preferably ones that are dissimilar to each other. This is a good time to use some decks that you might otherwise ignore. Ask your querent to look through the decks face-up and choose two decks: the “me” deck that the querent identifies with or feels is very engaging, and the “not me” deck that seems boring, repellent, or irrelevant. Ask your querent to explain what he or she relates to about the “me” deck. Ask the person to then explain why the “not me” deck is a “not me” deck. Finally, ask the querent what he or she learned by doing this, or if anything felt surprising and new. AN EXAMPLE My client Sylvia looked through the following five decks: The Gaian Tarot, The Victorian Regina Tarot, The Voyager Tarot, The Dark Goddess Tarot, and Arnell Ando’s Transformational Tarot. She chose The Gaian Tarot as her “me” deck and The Transformational Tarot as her “not me” deck. I asked her to explain and she said: The “me” deck: I chose The Gaian Tarot as my “me” deck because it is so bright and cheerful. Everyone in it looks happy. It represents the way I want to be. When I look at it, it makes me feel happier. I want to be in its world with the people in the cards. Also, the pictures look like they are of real people, people I would have a good time with. I also like how the Gaian Tarot cards show beautiful outdoor places. I would love to have a country house near a lake or a river. The “not me” deck: I find the Transformational Tarot deck too scary and dark. It is not a world that I want to go into. None of the cards felt friendly or welcoming to me. This deck strikes me as more hipster, than happy. I want happy. What Sylvia said that she learned about herself: I realized how much I want to be surrounded by happy people and how I actively resist looking at the dark side of life. My life with my family growing up was nothing like the happy families that I saw on television and in advertisements. Everyone was always fighting and complaining about everything. I always felt that I was born into the wrong family. Once I got away to college and then, afterwards, found a job, I never came back home again except for major holidays. On my own now, I try to stay optimistic. Someday I hope to get married and create the family that I have always wanted to be part of: happy people who want to be with each other. I realize from doing this Tarot deck exercise, that I am still a bit afraid of being sucked back into how I felt as a kid living at home—that if I start looking at depressing or frightening images, like some of those in the Transformational Tarot deck, I will start to get depressed. I guess my negative early family life has affected me more than I have been aware of. 2. What do your decks tell you about you? After experimenting with Which deck is “me”…, I realized that one could extend this principle to all the decks that we buy. From this point of view, every Tarot deck each of us owns could be said to reflect some aspect of our personality and our approach to life. I believe this holds true even for decks that we did not buy and were gifted with, but have chosen to keep. I decided to test this theory on myself and do an experiment in which I arranged the dozens of decks that I own in rows that reflected their relative importance to me. My goal was to see what I could learn about myself from how I ordered the decks. INSTRUCTIONS Arrange your decks in rows: Put your absolute favorite decks in Row 1, your next favorite deck or decks below it in Row 2, and so on. You can do this if you have three decks or three hundred. Think about some of the following questions: Why are some decks more important to you? Why do you like your favorite decks? How are you deciding which row a particular deck belongs in? Do all the decks in a particular row have something in common? What are the differences between the decks in Row 1 and the decks in your last row? What have you learned from doing this? How do your decks reflect your personality? AN EXAMPLE Here is how I arranged my decks and what my reasons were: Row 1: My most important deck is my very personal B.O.T.A. (Builders of the Adytum Mystery School) deck of Major Arcana cards that I have colored myself and regularly use only for meditation. I never show it to anyone else or let anyone else handle it. Why I like it: In addition to its spiritual associations and Kabbalistic imagery, its pictures are very clear and every card’s colors and imagery clearly relates to the theme of the card. I also put a lot of effort into coloring this deck. I first tried to color the cards using colored pencils. I liked the result, but it was too hard on my wrists. I switched to using art markers and did a set of large B.O.T.A. cards that way. I found it surprisingly difficult to color inside the lines and not smear. Adding gold and silver paint details turned out to be the hardest part because the pens tended to drip paint, if I was not very careful. I had to accept that I could not produce a “perfect” deck and decided that this deck represented the best that I could currently do. My hard work increased this deck’s value to me and, in general, I am proud of how the deck came out. What this says about me: Tarot has become a spiritual path for me. I am willing to do the necessary work associated with this path. I can accept that I am a work in progress and not perfect. I will keep trying. Row 2: This is where I put my favorite divination deck: All the Rider/Waite/Smith decks that I use in readings, in all their various sizes and colorations. Why I like it: I find this is a very satisfying deck to read with because its pictures are brightly colored, very clearly and simply drawn, and the images on each card are organized into coherent and emotionally evocative pictures.. Even before I learned the traditional meanings for each card, I could intuit most of the meanings simply by looking at the picture. I also like it because it comes out of the “Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn” mystery school and it is designed with certain Kabbalistic principles in mind. What this says about me: I like things to be clear, coherent, systematic, and to have a spiritual basis. Row 3: Next comes about a dozen decks that I occasionally do readings with and expect to use again sometime in the future, such as the Quest Tarot, Druidcraft Tarot, the Connally Tarot, and the GaianTarot. Why I like them: I like the Quest Tarot because it incorporates many different mystical systems. The other decks in this row are similar to my beloved R/W/S decks and my B.O.T.A. deck in that they have only one central image per card (as opposed to a montage of varied images like the Voyager Tarot), and have clear, bright colors. The various cards are easy to distinguish from one another by a quick glance. What this says about me: Again, I like to have a single main image per card with a meaning that I can see without having to study each card deeply. I also, when possible, like it to tie in with a spiritual system, as the Quest Tarot does. Row 4: This row is a bit of a surprise. All the decks in this row are made up of photographs of actual people posed and costumed to look like the traditional drawings. I had to think more deeply about why I like these decks and what they say about me. For a while, I bought any photo deck that I could find and afford. Why I like them: They make the archetypal images in traditional Tarot decks more “real” by using photos of actual people. The archetypes literally are brought to life! I also enjoy seeing how the deck maker met the challenge of getting people to look like the archetypes depicted in Tarot. What this says about me: I was not aware of this before I did this exercise, but these photo decks seem to relate to my self-reflective, philosophical side, as in: How am I an archetype? Which card would I want to be posed as? (If you are wondering about the answer, I would like to be the Magician on Key 1). I could go on (and on) because I really do have a lot of decks. I actually ended up with 7 rows. But I think you get the picture: unlike my client Sylvia, whose main focus was on being “happy,” I am focused on being clear, coherent, and spiritual. Try this yourself and see what you learn. 3. Be your decks. This exercise is based on Gestalt therapy dream work techniques. Gestalt therapists believe that one cannot help projecting one’s own issues into everything that we experience. In Gestalt dream work, you ask the clients to tell their dream in the first person, as if it was happening to them right now. “I am walking down a road and I see….” Then you have them be the different people or objects in the dream, again speaking in the first person and saying whatever comes to mind. “I am the road that everyone is walking on. Everyone takes me for granted unless I develop a pot hole or something else inconvenient for them.” Instead of talking about a dream and becoming its objects, here you are going to ask your querent to pretend to be a few of your decks and see what they learn about themselves from doing this. I tell querents: “Try not to censor yourself or worry about being rational. This method works best when you simply say whatever pops into your mind without judging it.” Below are the basic instructions. I have written this in plural form—“querents,” rather than “the querent”— because it is tiresome to have to say “he or she” and “him and her” over and over again. “They” and “them” are much easier! INSTRUCTIONS STEP 1: Have querents choose two or three decks from your collection to do this exercise with. STEP 2: Ask querents to look through the first deck face up until they are satisfied that they have a general impression about this deck. STEP 3: Have the querents “be the deck”: talk in the first person as the deck and say anything at all that comes to mind without censoring themselves. STEP 4: Ask querents if any anything that they said about the deck also applies to them. If they say “no,” ask them “How are you different from this deck?” STEP 5: Ask querents what they learned about themselves from being the deck. Or, if they did not learn anything entirely new, what was highlighted for them during this exercise. STEP 6: Go on to do the above with as many decks as you would like. AN EXAMPLE: My querent Lisa chose the Voyager Tarot deck and said the following: I am very colorful and have a lot of things in me. At first glance it is hard to see what each of my cards means because there are so many different things to look at. Some people might even find me confusing or overwhelming. However, if you keep looking at me closely, eventually you will be able to see that every single part of me has a meaning. I am like a box that is filled with beautiful jewelry, but the jewelry is all tangled up together and it is hard to clearly see where the bracelet ends and the necklace or brooch begins. When I asked Lisa if anything that she said about the Voyager deck applied to herself, she said: Well…I wouldn’t have thought of it before this exercise, but it does relate to me. More than one person has told me that I am hard to really get to know. I am very friendly, but I save my secrets for those closest to me. The deck is bright and colorful and I like to wear clothing that is brightly colored and has patterns. I am definitely not going to wear all-black or dress head to toe in only one or two colors. I guess with both the Voyager deck and me, you have to be patient and care enough to look closely in order to see what is actually going on under all the bright surface stuff. These exercises can be a painless and pleasant way to get to know interesting things about anyone, and to share with them similar things about yourself. ![]() is an internationally renowned Gestalt therapy trainer who specializes in teaching the diagnosis and treatment of Borderline, Narcissistic, and Schizoid adaptations.

TOOLS OF YOUR TRADE

I constantly think about ways to make my life more
efficient. The work/home life balance is one that most of us are trying to manage in some way, shape or form. I remember when the personal computer was pitched as a time and paper saver for the new millennium. While it does seems to prove true that computers make more things instantly available, it‘s ironic that we seem to spend more time on the computer, and use more paper, too. Any sole proprietor can tell you that it takes a lot of time to market and grow a business. It’s not easy to be both the talent and the salesperson for most soul-based entrepreneurs. After awhile, the busier practitioners often feel the need for an assistant, although not everyone can afford one, or they may not be ready to hire an extra hand. This is where the beauty and appreciation of today’s technology comes in into play. The virtual assistants for many business logistics and processes are numerous, with a variety of software, applications and plug-ins available on the market. It is true that these things don’t replace the pleasantness of human interaction, but the economy of doing business without needing employees is worth its weight in gold. From tarot decks to finance and productivity apps and many other applications, there are so many to choose from, depending on your needs. One that has made a great difference for my business is an online appointment scheduler that allows clients to choose up to 3 appointment times, shows my availability, collects their info and allows them to pay. There is no need to call, leave a message and wait for a call back to get the appointment scheduled. Another fantastic app is Recorder – A Voice Recorder app that allows me to record and save readings and instantly sends them to my client. Please keep in mind that technology isn’t perfect, so update, update, update! I would recommend caution in choosing email software or database software that might not be compatible with your precious information if you should have to get a new computer, tablet or phone. Also I would recommend free or trial-based applications that you can try out before investing money. Although these helpful resources are great for some of us, they are not useful across the board, so it’s really hard to pinpoint one that stands out. If you have something you like, pass it on! Be well and prosper, my friends! Resources: • LiveSite Client Engagement Platform (scheduler) http://www.vcita.com/ • Recorder by TapMedia Apple App Store or Google Play Cool Tarot Projects:
