  • Summary

  • Tarot cards has been a journey of over 30 years for me. I took a two and a half day course to learn how to read tarot and I was hooked. At the time, I wanted to learn how to read tarot because I loved having my cards read and I wanted to demystify it, and also learn how to do it for myself and others.

    Since this was a new skill, I relied heavily on learning the cards and the positions in the spread. It was a memorization game. It took many years to be able to put the stories together, and even longer to get out of my head and trust my intuition (which I still struggle with).

    Tarot has been an exciting journey in my personal life. In my professional life, I am an instructional designer, course writer and digital content creator. Needless to say, it was a matter of time before I took on the personal project of sharing how I learned to read tarot cards, which truly was building on the basics - which is the symbolism of the cards.

    Taking my experience in adult learning and course writing coupled with my passion for reading cards, I created these three minute podcasts to help card readers learn as I did. Ok... they aren't EXACTLY 3 minutes. I'm not THAT good! But I am around that 2.5 to 3.5 minute mark, with special episodes sometimes being longer. Please know there is so much more to know, but this should give a beginner some basics.

    For people that already have a familiarity with the cards, taking in the podcast may be a great way to focus on the lessons. For those that would do better with accompanying visuals, I would recommend searching for the card for viewing in the deck, on your computer or phone. I have used the Rider Waite deck to build this podcast course, because it is the deck that I learned on, and it is still my favorite tarot card deck.

    Even though I love the woo woo nature of cards, astrology and numerology, it can be confusing when discussing the technical aspects of the cards, and flip flopping in and out of the fluff makes it hard to learn a new skill. This audio course sticks to point so that a person learning can stay in their left brain of "doing" instead of "feeling". I love the fluff and the feeling piece, but for me, I needed to learn the cards before I could lean into how I felt and to incorporate the woo woo on my spiritual path. And .... we can only do so much in three minutes, in the spirit of focusing on basics to start, and repeating key messages (like the suit!) to help them stick.

    Happy learning!

I use the Rider Waite Tarot if you would like to view the card while you listen using your own Taro card deck or a computer. Today, we're exploring the Nine of Pentacles, focusing on reversals. First, let's start with the divine meaning of the card and then the meaning when reversed.The Nine of Pentacles upright represents self-sufficiency, independence, and the rewards of hard work. It's about enjoying the fruits of your labor and feeling confident in your abilities and achievements.The reversed Nine of Pentacles can indicate struggles such as self-worth, or just feeling unhappy with the material rewards for your effort. The reversed Nine of Pentacles suggests that while you may have worked hard to achieve a certain level of success, you might not thoroughly enjoy or appreciate it. There may be feelings of inadequacy or concerns about whether you truly deserve the success or independence you've gained. Next, let's discuss ways to approach this card in a reading. When the Nine of Pentacles reversed appears in a reading, it's often a sign that it's time to reflect on your sense of self-worth. This card reminds you that it's time to look at your achievements with gratitude and pride. Take a moment to appreciate how far you have come and recognize the value of your accomplishments. It may also indicate mindset issues around your financial independence, and you can find yourself having material insecurity. Sometimes, we tend not to lean into our success and may feel like we are not as independent as we'd like to be. We sometimes get caught up in the fact that we had help along the way and didn't honestly do it on our own. The Nine of Pentacles reversed recognizes these feelings and encourages you to see your success as earned and deserved. Remembering tarot cards helps when I can tie one of my personal experiences to the card. For example, my reversed Nine of Pentacles moment was winning a national award for being among Canada's top 50 sales representatives for the company I worked for. It was my first year in sales, and I will tell you how I won and why this was a Nine of Pentacles Reversed Moment. I won by paying attention to the request. When they laid out the sales contest, they clearly stated that you needed to sell a certain dollar amount in different products. Many of them were new products that the company wanted to grow. I ensured that I pitched all those products in every sales call to ensure that I made all the numbers. I was selling advertising in a Yellow Pages phone book to small businesses, and I was a brand new sales rep. When I won one of those 50 top spots, many seasoned sales reps outsold me by a landslide. They shared that they did not pitch those new products often, so they weren't eligible. My Nine of Pentacles reversed was feeling that I won on a technicality, not because I was good at my new job. The reality is that I won because I paid attention to what was asked for by my employer. I was deserving, but that doubt crept in when I saw how much revenue some of these other representatives brought in.Thank you for joining me in exploring the Nine of Pentacles reversed. This card reminds us to recognize our accomplishments and enjoy the rewards that come with them. Of course, to memorize taro, keep practicing taro. As you listen to these three-minute lessons, you will consistently remember the symbolism that applies across different cards in the deck. Thank you for listening.

    Welcome to the "Memorizing Tarot Cards" podcast, your three-minute lessons on learning and memorizing each card using symbolism. I use the Rider Waite Tarot if you would like to view the card while you listen using your own Tarot card deck or a computer. Today, we're exploring the Eight of Pentacles, focusing on reversals. First, let's start with the divine meaning of the card and then the meaning when reversed.

    The Eight of Pentacles upright card represents dedication, hard work, and the commitment to mastering a craft or skill. It's about putting in daily effort to improve and refine your abilities.

    When reversed, it often suggests a lack of focus or dedication. You may feel unmotivated, distracted, or bored with your current tasks.

    The reversed Eight of Pentacles highlights the potential for burnout or dissatisfaction with your work. It could suggest that you're either putting too much pressure on yourself to be perfect or losing sight of the value in what you're doing. Next, let's discuss ways to approach this card in a reading.

    When the Eight of Pentacles reversed shows up in a reading, it's a sign that you may need to take a step back and reassess your approach to work or personal development. This card encourages you to reconnect with what truly inspires you. Rather than getting caught up in the grind, take a moment to consider whether your current path aligns with your long-term goals.

    This card may also indicate a need for better focus. If you've been jumping from task to task without fully committing, now is the time to hone in on one or two key areas that need your attention. It's a reminder that spreading yourself too thin can lead to burnout and dissatisfaction.

    My reversed Eight of Pentacles moment was the learning curve of transitioning from classroom training to video. The truth is, I loved learning the software and the creative aspect of building videos. However, starting anything new takes time. As I presented digital files to clients for review, they would ask if I could make the video move in different ways. So many ideas led to long nights on Google, looking up how to make the video do things. I was often working on a series of training videos simultaneously. Therefore, I was learning to manage my work differently. For example, I would create a new video while managing edits from others I already made. In truth, I love what I do. But it was a big learning curve and I was unsure if I was on the right path. I had to look at it differently. I decided to spend some time learning how to manage a digital workload, and that helped me keep my work organized. I was able to find my focus. I decided that learning how to build digital training was the right path, as it would give me more flexibility and a different outlet for creativity and passive income. Once I reassessed my goals, I haven't looked back.

    Thank you for joining me in exploring the Eight of Pentacles reversed. This card reminds us to stay dedicated to what matters and to be mindful of burnout and the need for balance. Of course, to memorize tarot, keep practicing tarot. As you listen to these three-minute lessons, you will consistently remember the symbolism that applies across different cards in the deck. Thank you for listening. Join us for more three-minute lessons to memorize more cards.

    Here is the transcript:

    Welcome to the "Memorizing Tarot Cards" podcast, your three-minute lessons on learning and memorizing each card using symbolism. I use the Rider Waite TaroT if you would like to view the card while you listen using your own tarot card deck or a computer.

    Today, we're exploring the Seven of Pentacles, focusing on reversals.

    First, let's start with the divine meaning of the card and then the meaning when reversed.

    The Seven of Pentacles Upright is about patience, hard work, and evaluating your progress. It's a card that reflects on your efforts and whether you're seeing the results you expected. When reversed, it often signals frustration with the lack of progress or a feeling that your efforts aren't paying off.

    The reversed Seven of Pentacles can suggest that you're growing impatient with the pace of your growth or success. You may feel you've been working hard but are not seeing the rewards as quickly as you'd hoped, leading to doubt and discouragement.

    Next, let's discuss ways to approach this card in a reading. When the Seven of Pentacles reversed appears in a reading, it's often a sign that you're feeling stuck or discouraged by the slow progress of your efforts. Whether in your career, finances, or personal life, you may question whether the time and energy you've invested have been worth it. This card invites you to step back and reflect on your long-term goals. This card also suggests being more patient with yourself and the situation. Sometimes, progress is happening behind the scenes, even if you can't see the results immediately. The reversed Seven of Pentacles encourages you to trust the process and focus on the bigger picture rather than getting caught up in short-term frustrations.

    My reversed Seven of Pentacles moment was losing hope when I started an e-commerce business. In 2013, I started an online clothing company called Carrie's Closet, that I operated for six years. I was shocked at how slow the growth was. It was a lot of effort, time and cost, and it was over two months to get my first sale. Week over week, I watched my stats on the website and social media. My views were increasing, but nobody was buying. I felt like I made a mistake, and nobody wanted what I was selling. Two months into this, I was sitting at the hair salon getting my hair colored, and my phone made a funny noise. I picked it up, looked at it, and saw my first sale come through! And it was someone I didn't know! I was so excited!

    Similarly, with this podcast, It took me a long time to earn everyone's trust to follow me and download my new podcast, provide reviews, and some of you have even emailed me directly to thank me. It's been a privilege to help you learn and memorize taro, and I hope you will continue to listen and learn with me.

    Thank you for joining me in exploring the Seven of Pentacles reversed. This card reminds us that while patience and persistence are essential, we must reassess and adjust our goals.

    Of course, to memorize tarot, keep practicing tarot. As you listen to these three-minute lessons, you will consistently remember the symbolism that applies across different cards in the deck. Thank you for listening. Join us for more three-minute lessons to memorize more cards.
