This week is a listener letter and it's from Şenay. They wanted to know how to get their social spark back after a big life audit and shake-up. After cutting a lot of people off, Şenay feels like they are struggling to get the motivation back to connect with others in social situations.
To help, I pulled five cards and set to work breaking down the key aspects of the question, the problem and the goal that was on the table. Together we move through the reading to try and identify where the resistance is coming from and how Şenay and anyone in a similar situation can make strides forward.
Cards in the Reading
Past: The Hierophant
Present: Ace of Cups
Future: King of Wands

The Tarot Court Cards are a pain. I'm not even going to pretend like they're easy to read because they're not. However, there are plenty of different ways you can start to get into the groove of interpreting them.
In this episode of the Energetic Tarot Podcast, I give you a little Court Card Tarot lesson to help you find your way around the Kings, Queens, Knights and Pages. There's also a little three-card Tarot spread at the end that you can use to practice Court cards more regularly.
Card Positions
1) How would this past version of yourself have dealt with this situation?
2) How would the present version of you deal with this situation?
3) How would the version of you you’re working towards becoming deal with this situation?

Tarot vs. Oracle Cards - Which one offers you the most support?
On the Energetic Tarot Podcast this week I wanted to chat about the differences between Tarot and Oracle cards, why you might use one over the other and also how you can use both Tarot and Oracle cards together.
Discover how you could deepen your Tarot practice by adding in an Oracle card now and again and learn more about the Oracle decks that are out there on the market.
Tarot & Oracle Task
First of all, we’ll need four Tarot cards and one Oracle card, so I’m going to choose them now.
Then I want to lay them out, so I’m going to imagine a square on the table in front of me and put each of my Tarot cards where each of the four sides of the square would be, my Oracle card will sit in the middle, at the heart of the reading. So let me go ahead and sort that.
From here we’ll go in a clockwise direction and the question I’m asking is about how my external world can better represent my internal one.
The oracle card will be what’s happening in my internal world right now and as I read the Tarot cards, I’ll start to build more of a picture of what’s happening externally and what I need to realign to reflect what’s going on internally.
Around the outside, I have the top card which is home, the right which is health, the bottom which is work/finances and the left which is relationships.

What Is The Difference Between Reading Psychically And Reading Energetically
On the podcast this week I'm touching on a 'slightly' controversial topic for many. Psychic Tarot readers. Specifically, I'll be looking at the differences between a psychic Tarot reader and a holistic or energetic Tarot reader.
It's important that if you're looking for a Tarot reading you find the right reader for you and your needs. I chat about how to look out for scammers and the frustrating spam accounts that are giving all Tarot readers a bad name.
Task:
Make sure to grab your cards and give them a good shuffle, take a few deep breaths and choose a single card from the deck
Get a pen and paper and start to first right down how that card makes you feel in your body. When you picked it did you feel a slight drop in your stomach, a tightness in your chest, maybe a twinge of excitement pushing your heart rate up a little?
Next, write down what thoughts or ideas popped into your head. Don’t feel like you have to rush this, sit and really take in the card and see what comes up. We’re doing this task fairly quickly on the podcast but doing this in your own time allows you much more space to sit with the card
Thirdly write down what emotions come up when you start to connect with that card
Lastly, what actions does that card make you want to take? What does it inspire you to do?
A good way to round off this task is to write a little summary about you and your relationship with that card. If you had to summarise what it was like pulling that card and what it meant to you personally, what would it be?

How do you create your own unique way of Tarot reading? That's what we're tackling in today's episode. We'll be exploring the different avenues we can take in order to read in a way that feels personal to us and that feels like our own unique take on the cards.
At the end of the episode, we'll do a task that aims to help you get started to explore your own Tarot reading style and explore the different elements you can incorporate into your own style.
Task For Episode 49
Shuffle your deck and choose a card
Think of the main keyword you associate with that card
Start creating branches off that main keyword and think about what other associations you can think of
For example, if I pulled The Sun my main keyword would be ‘Joy’
I would then create branches off that keyword and write things like achievement, fulfilment, success, solar energy… anything I associate with the word ‘Joy’
It can also help to think of real-world examples of when you’ve experienced that keyword and make a note of it
Keep going until you can’t pick out any more
Then repeat with another card and keep going

This is our first dalliance with The Moon Tarot card on the Energetic Tarot, but it's a definite deep dive into this card and the work you can do with it.
At the episode, there is a nourishing, guided meditation to help you fully tap into the energy of The Moon Tarot card. So make sure you're somewhere you won't be disturbed and sit back ready for some deep subconscious exploration.
Post meditation task
After you’ve completed this meditation I want you to start journaling about what you found in those depths. What was it that you pulled out? Was it an object? In which case, what memories, emotions or thoughts are attached to it?
If it was a feeling, can you pinpoint the moments you’ve felt that feeling in the past?
This is your Seven of Wands moment, start unpacking those treasures, ask them questions, think about why you’ve chosen these things to bring out of the depths and into the light of your conscious.

Today we're talking about love Tarot readings and how you can do them for yourself in a healthy and balanced way. Love Tarot readings are very tricky and they need a great deal of care and attention to be done correctly.
In this episode, I chat you through the key things you need to keep in mind when doing a love reading and how you can do it in a way that doesn't put your well-being on the line. We'll be guided by the Five of Swords for our work.
Prompts for Episode 47
Step 1: First we need to create some space for exploration. We can do this by pre-planning some questions to ask yourself. Think about those examples I gave earlier e.g. ‘Where have I felt this before?’ and come up with around 10 questions you could ask yourself to better understand your feelings.
Step 2: Think about how you feel right now and make a bullet point list of everything you’re feeling. Try and be specific as possible.
Step 3: Do your reading. For this practice, you can do a simple past, present and future reading. Or if you have a spread you like to use go ahead and use that. I was going to create a love reading spread for you but I want to leave it more open so you have that space to focus on exactly what you need to.
Make sure to keep referring to those questions you’ve written down to keep you anchored and moving in the right direction. Also, pay attention to where the feelings from your bullet point lists appear in your reading. Where can you see these reflected back to you? Again refer back to your questions.
