ok so I've been on this site for a while now reading about tarot and astrology but never actually posted... figured I'd break the ice by sharing how I first got into all of this
for me it started like 4 years ago when I was going through a really rough patch. my best friend gifted me a tarot deck (rider waite, the classic) and I honestly thought it was just a fun party trick lol
but then I did my first real pull - just asking the cards what I needed to focus on - and got the hermit. at the time I thought it was random but looking back... I was SO isolated and refusing to look inward. it kind of shook me
that's when I started actually reading about what the cards meant, which led me to astrology (turns out I'm a virgo rising which explained SO much), and from there numerology just kind of... happened?
anyway I'd love to hear how other people found their way here. was it a specific moment? someone who introduced you? total accident?
omg I love this thread!! mine was honestly embarrassing - I was at a county fair and one of those tarot booths was like the only short line so I just went in
the reader told me something about a major transition coming and I was like ok sure. then like two weeks later I got offered a job in a completely different field and I've been obsessed ever since lol
Margaret T that last line got me 😭
mine was when I moved across the country alone at 24. no friends nearby, new city, kind of existential crisis mode lol
I started reading about numerology just bc I was bored one night and it genuinely described things about myself that I hadn't even put into words yet. felt seen in the weirdest way. went deep from there
I think that's the thing about spirituality - it tends to find you when you're ready to actually look inward
for me it was a really rough breakup a few years back. like genuinely blindsided me and I didn't know what to do with myself
a friend suggested I try journaling and somehow that led me down a rabbit hole of oracle cards and then astrology... I just needed SOMETHING to help me make sense of things
now I actually look back on that period as one of the most transformative times of my life. the breakup cracked me open in a way that let me start asking bigger questions about who I am and what I actually want. didn't expect that at all
What a lovely thread. These origin stories always move me.
Mine started over 40 years ago when my grandmother handed me a worn deck of tarot cards and told me to sit with them until they spoke. I didn't understand what that meant, but I sat. And eventually, they did speak.
In all my years of practice, the one thing I've noticed is that people rarely find this path by accident. Usually something happens - a loss, a turning point, a question that won't leave you alone - and it cracks the door open just enough.
You walked through that door. That's the whole thing.
