Have you ever pulled a Major Arcana card and noticed its message playing out in your life for days—or even weeks—after? Here's why… Each of the 22 Major Arcana archetypes highlight major themes that occur throughout our lives. When we tap into those themes, we start seeing how they show up for us in reality… which helps us see ourselves more clearly. And when we're able to feel seen and witnessed through the lessons of the cards, we can then take action to make positive change. Healer and Tarot practitioner Chelsey May Orsmond has built a thriving business around helping people transform their lives through Tarot in this way. In our conversation together, Chelsey shares with me how she harnesses the Major Arcana as a potent tool for personal growth and development.

If you've ever experienced burnout… Or feel like you're constantly striving because you think you have to hustle to achieve your goals… I have some good news! There's a better way. You don't have to push hard and force your way to success, despite what society tells us. In fact, we can actually achieve a lot MORE by harmonizing with the natural rhythms––like the seasons, the menstrual cycle, and the monthly lunar cycle. Because when we do this, we feel calmer, more balanced, and have more energy. And what do all of these cycles have in common? They have periods of GROWTH followed by REST. As humans, we are not immune to these cycles (as much as we hate to admit it!). So the natural cycles encourage us not only to take action… but also to take intentional rest so we can bring our goals to life in a more sustainable way. For years, I've been manifesting with the guidance of the lunar cycles. And I love this practice so much that I've created a Tarot spread around manifesting with the moon! Tune in for: [2:11] How to manifest FAST using each of the 4 unique cycles of the moon [5:02] How to set up your sacred space for a powerful Full Moon Tarot spread [5:52] My favorite 6-card Tarot spread for manifesting with the Full Moon [7:52] The most important step for any manifestation Tarot spread Listen in to the episode now to get my favorite Tarot spread for manifesting with the lunar cycles! 🌕
