Yes, tarot has its “assigned” meanings, but much of the art of reading the cards comes down to interpretation. Depending on how you look at a card, when you look at a card and a variety of other variables, the meaning for you might shift. Take the 9 of Wands for example. One of the central features of that card is the body language, posture and facial expression of the individual in the card. But, what do those things tell us? Is this person armed and ready for battle? Are they on the defense? Are they scared? Are they paranoid? Are they annoyed? Are they sure of their position? Are they unsure? There are no wrong answers - only what we see in the moment of actually reading the card.
Tarot moves with us. Those images aren’t fixed. Yes, they technically stay in place, but their meanings can change and evolve and then, change back! Ambiguity can certainly make tarot more complex, but it also makes it infinitely more interesting. Meaning is in the eye of the beholder.
Today’s tip was inspired by the 9 of Wands. Come back tomorrow for another quick and simple tarot tip!
