So in your case, your number is 3, hence the card, The Empress. My instructions aren't really instructions because they are just notes based on the book I'm reading, Tarot For Your Self by Mary Greer. The book gives you detailed instructions. If you are planning on working along, I'd suggest checking out the book. I'm finding it super helpful so far. Hope that helps. Have a happy day! :) The cards correspond to the numbers listed on them.

I still don't know which one is for me. My life path is 3, however which card would represent such? and so on so forth Thanks Bobbi So I’ve read above instructions, now are the cards in a specific order?

I am haunted by a black weight I cannot explain. I have searched high and low for answers, tracking down old scrolls full of mystical teachings and staying up 'til the dawn light breaks, working with magickal herbs and elixirs, but still enlightenment eludes me. Instead, there is only the darkness. Even now, I feel a cold wind blowing down my neck. I fear my time is limited. Sincerely, Tortured Magician Dear Tortured Magician, It is always darkest before the dawn. Why, I'm sure if you look out of that window, you'll see a beautiful rosy sky as the sun crests the horizon, heralding a new day, full of creative potential. Remember: Shadows are just that - shadows. Nothing a good lamp or three can't cure. If you want to get more metaphysical, remember that the light is within yourself; you've just got to set it free. Go run around outside, rather than sitting cramped up at your desk reading dusty scrolls. Or cook a nice dinner with those magical herbs and share it with someone you love (or would like to love, if you know what I mean ;)). As for the cold wind blowing down your neck, maybe you should shut the window. Best, Abby p.s. I used my brand new Dark Grimoire. The Magician card is writing in a book! And the King of Wands is laughing his butt off :) Dear Abby,

Dear Tortured Magician,

It is always darkest before the dawn. Why, I’m sure if you look out of that window, you’ll see a beautiful rosy sky as the sun crests the horizon, heralding a new day, full of creative potential. Remember: Shadows are just that – shadows. Nothing a good lamp or three can’t cure. If you want to get more metaphysical, remember that the light is within yourself; you’ve just got to set it free. Go run around outside, rather than sitting cramped up at your desk reading dusty scrolls. Or cook a nice dinner with those magical herbs and share it with someone you love (or would like to love, if you know what I mean ;) ).

As for the cold wind blowing down your neck, maybe you should shut the window.

Best,
Abby

Thanks for posting the full thing here. I've read bits and pieces of the tarot technique, but only ever managed to work out my numerology the traditional way. I'm practically all Hierophant, but it would be interesting to delve more into the potential and persona cards. As for all your Kings - you are master of your domain, obviously ;) Ooooh!

Great way to lend more to the theme of the deck! I like how instead of “The Empress” it’s “The Fairy Godmother.” Great way to lend more to the theme of the deck!

Yeah, I'm practicing some of them. I love seeing new spreads posted! :) Ooh, yay! So glad you had your first atunement. That's exciting! :D That would be awesome if you could work with your friends son too! Heh. I wish I could get my fuzzy friend to hold still too. She sat still for Reiki once and I think it was because she was just that sleepy. :P Spreads! Yeah, I’m practicing some of them. I love seeing new spreads posted! :)

Interesting to read the article on Reiki and autism, as well as the rabbit treatment. I received my first atunement yesterday (now to practice practice practice :)) and hope to be able to work with a friend's autistic son. Personally, I'd love to pursue work with animals. Just got to get my fuzzy to hold still long enough! So many useful spreads this week! Interesting to read the article on Reiki and autism, as well as the rabbit treatment.
