Why You Should Start a Daily Tarot Ritual

Every activity that leads to insight, even the smallest one, when done regularly and daily, becomes powerful and meaningful. Prayer, yoga practice, meditation, and sports—when practiced daily—lead to positive and significant changes in life. These are wonderful rituals that can create a true sense of health, stability, and meaning in life.

In the morning, before the rush of life begins, find a quiet moment and draw a card from the tarot deck or press a card for your daily pull. Even if the meaning of the tarot cards is familiar to you, it's worthwhile to read carefully the explanation of the card's essence. Each time you read again, you discover additional aspects that the cards reveal, relevant to your current situation.

Tarot Card Reading on a daily basis and reflecting on the message from the cards you receive can be one of the most beneficial rituals of all.

Today's Card Message

Everyone has those days when they wake up late and everything seems to go wrong, leaving them unfocused and unprepared. How a person starts their day often dictates the rest of it. Are you alert or exhausted? Optimistic or pessimistic? Open or closed? While it’s not always possible to control the events of the day or the emotions that arise in response, what you can control—and should—are your reactions and interpretations of these events. A daily tarot reading reveals the expected energy of the day, providing clarity and awareness to prepare you for what’s to come.

The Bigger Picture

It’s easy to suppress and deny the significance of daily events, compartmentalizing everything that happens from morning till night. But when you experience each day in isolation from the others, you limit your ability to see the bigger picture and understand ongoing processes. By pulling tarot cards daily, you begin to notice recurring patterns in the energy and see the connections between events. This can help you recognize your patterns and how to deal with or change them.

Living in the Present

Living in the moment with peace and acceptance is challenging. It’s difficult to ignore fears, past issues, and heartaches—whether from years ago or days past—not to mention hopes and expectations for the future… But when you spend your day dwelling on the past and the future, you miss out on the present. A daily tarot ritual helps you experience the present by providing a clear perspective on the current energy surrounding you.

Daily Tarot Ritual

At the Start of the Day

Find a quiet moment, take three deep breaths into your belly, and ask the tarot cards to provide a loving daily message.
Draw a card from the tarot deck or click on a card in a daily draw.
Read the explanation of the card's meaning. Pay attention to any emotions it may evoke.

During the Day

Be attentive to people, events, or situations throughout the day and how the morning’s messages relate to them.
Reflect on the day’s events in relation to the messages received in the morning.

At the End of the Day

Review events that stirred emotions and find connections between them and the card’s messages.
Write down how the card's messages were relevant and how they improved your ability to handle the day’s events.

In a short time, the messages from the cards will become a powerful and enjoyable tool for you.

In Summary

A daily tarot card draw and journaling is not a chore or homework; it’s learning and enjoyment, and above all, a connection with the universe. You can draw the daily card while sipping your morning tea or coffee, or while lying in bed in the morning, simply in quiet before starting your daily activities. It’s a ritual that begins the day with positive energy and insights for challenging energy, helping to focus and sharpen intuition. This ritual allows for a thoughtful approach to daily events.
