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: Listen in to the episode now to get my favorite Tarot spread for manifesting with the lunar cycles! 🌕

Sometimes, our soul’s desires just won’t leave us alone until we listen to them. This was what happened for Certified Biddy Tarot Advisor Monica Vejar when she first discovered Tarot as a teen. Having grown up in a religious household, she thought Tarot was “wrong” and “evil”... but she kept feeling a strong pull to keep learning about it. Once she started actually working with the cards, she realized they could be an important ally for personal growth and mental health. Now, Monica reads Tarot for hundreds of people to help them overcome their own struggles––and is even working with her best friend on a podcast about Tarot and mental health. And it all happened because she was willing to listen to her inner wisdom over her limiting beliefs. Tune in for: Listen to the episode now to hear Monica’s inspiring story!

Do you feel like you’re here for a reason - but aren’t sure what it is? Nicole, a Certified Biddy Tarot Advisor, felt the same way for most of her life… Until her mother’s passing in 2021, when she underwent an intense and introspective spiritual awakening. During this time, Nicole remembered that when she was a little girl, she wanted to be a school teacher. And after her awakening, she stepped into a role as a spiritual teacher. Not only does Nicole now read Tarot professionally, but she is also a gifted Reiki Master, intuitive psychic, medium, and sound healer. So while she isn’t a school teacher like she’d envisioned, she teaches in different ways. She teaches women how to relax. How to be in their bodies. How to reconnect with their deceased loved ones.
