Chakra healing is a more recent tradition than tarot, which dates back to the 1500s. Both have a connection to the spiritual world. Like how tarot cards can be used to predict the future, chakra healing works to balance out negative energy at the body’s energy centers. They thus make a good combination that you can seek help from if you want a total body, mind, and spirit solution.
Here, with this guide, though the method is very basic, anyone and everyone can start incorporating tarot and chakra healing today.
The Uses of Tarot in Spirituality
Tarot cards are employed for reflection, navigation, and prophecy. A normal tarot deck has seventy-eight cards: the major arcana has twenty-two cards, while the minor arcana has fifty-six cards. All cards have their message, myth, and vibration – in this sense, tarot is a very universal tool for ritual work.
The former refers to major events and lessons in a person’s life and primarily consists of the Major Arcana cards, while the latter denotes the minor or typical occurrences of life and is mostly composed of the Minor Arcana cards. Thus, combining Tarot and chakra healing is a way to gain insight into the energy imbalances in your body and work towards improvement.
Connecting Tarot and Chakras
Every chakra has its frequency, and in the same way, Tarot also has certain frequencies by which it can merge with the chakra energies. To make use of these forecasts, you may speak to the Tarot cards to find out which of your chakras are closed or hyperactive and how they can be restored to proper functioning.
Here’s a simple guide to help you connect specific Tarot cards to each chakra:
1. Root Chakra:
– Tarot Cards: Monarch, Fortress, Satan.
– Focus: Order, protection, and concerns of the body. It is recommended not to use these cards if you get them, as they may be linked to the feeling of insecurity and with anchors.
2. Sacral Chakra:
Factors that can signify behavior are noted in articulating emotions or establishing relationships. Also, these cards could say that one is encouraged to look into his or her emotional well-being and creativity.
3. Solar Plexus Chakra:
The Chariot, Strength, and The Sun.
This leads to power, confidence, and self-discipline at a personal level. Should these cards surface, it can be high time to gauge the status of control and confidence in one’s life.
4. Heart Chakra:
The Lovers Tarot, The Star Tarot, Ace of Cups Tarot.
Fondness, tenderness, and tolerance. These cards may be suggestive of problems that you have in your relationships, as well as your ability to both accept and express affection.
5. Throat Chakra:
The High Priestess, The Hierophant, and the Page of Swords.
Writing and ‘truth.’ When these cards appear, there might be an issue with assertiveness and the ability to share the inner self and thoughts.
6. Third Eye Chakra:
Some of them are the Hermit, the Moon, and the Hanged Man.
These cards mean that it is high time you listen to the inner voice or use the more current term—your ‘gut feeling’.
7. Crown Chakra:
These tarot cards include The Fool, The World, and The Star.
Issues to do with spirituality and the attainment of divine knowledge. These cards could make you want to have a spiritual quest and strive to find spirituality in your life.
How to do a tarot chakra reading
To use Tarot in your chakra healing, it is possible to do a Tarot chakra draw. This is a basic form of the spread that involves dealing one card for each of the chakras, and this gives you insight into the status of energy and helps to spot areas that must attention.
Step 1: Prepare Your Space
Choose a nice and calm environment that is free from any form of interference. You might need to make the environment conducive by lighting a candle, having a scent, or even playing a nice song in the background.
Step 2: Setting an Intention
As with any practice, before entering the reading process, it is helpful to take a few minutes and get into the right frame of mind and state of mind. You can do this by breathing slowly and deeply and then thinking about each chakra and its corresponding color.
Step 3: One card for each of the Chakras.
Mix up your playing cards and concentrate on your chakra. If you like, take one card each for the root chakra and then move up through the rest of the chakra system to the crown chakra. Put them one over the other in a straight manner, which will imply the positioning of the chakras.
Step 4: Interpretation of cards
Consider each of the drawn cards and see how they apply to each chakra that you have. Can you identify any themes or patterns of ideas and/or information? If there is no balance of one’s energy centers, then what do the cards suggest about the state of these chakras?
For instance, if the Tower card is drawn about the Root Chakra, it means that there is some chaos, some shake in your life that impacts your grounding, thereby causing insecurity. If you pull the Lovers for your Heart Chakra, it could say matters about love and relationships.
Step 5: Analysis and Action
Do some meditation before you proceed with what comes next, after having analyzed the cards. Think about how you could bring balance or unblock the particular chakra. This could be done through prayer, imagination, positive speech, or any other therapeutic exercise.
For example, if you need to work on the Sacral Chakra, then you may list creativity, writing, or sharing your feelings. If you get a lot of attention on the Third Eye Chakra, you could incorporate activities such as mindfulness, meditation, or a dream diary for your spirituality and intuition.
Combining Tarot with chakra rebalancing is a very effective method to listen to the voice inside you and regulate your life. Given that Tarot cards are a perfect tool to reflect the situation and status of a person, you will be able to pinpoint your current state of chakras and the issues influencing them.
It has to be emphasized that this practice is not about fortune-telling or the absence of personal initiative; it is about self-awareness. Always listen to your heart, take your time, and embrace the healing process of creating a new, better, and happier you.
For individuals new to Tarot, paired with this practice, it is a great way for newcomers to transform themselves or Tarot readers with a fresh approach. Well, why not, then? In other words, the way to a more balanced and harmonious life could be as easy as a Tarot card.
