Okay, so today I wanted to try something new with my tarot deck. I’ve been feeling a bit scattered lately, like I have a million ideas but no focus. So, I decided to use the 6 of Wands to help me set some solid intentions. I’ve heard people talk about using tarot for intention-setting, and the 6 of Wands seemed perfect – it’s all about victory, success, and public recognition, right?
My Simple Tarot Intention Experiment
First, I cleared my space. I just Tidied things a bit, lit a candle – nothing too fancy. I wanted to feel calm and centered. Then, I shuffled my deck while thinking about what I really wanted to achieve this week. Not just vague wishes, but concrete, actionable things.
I pulled the 6 of Wands and, honestly, it felt right. I spent some time just looking at the card. The image of the rider on horseback, holding the wand with the laurel wreath… it just screams “win!” I closed my eyes and imagined myself feeling that same sense of accomplishment.
What I did next:
- I grabbed my journal and wrote down “6 of Wands Intentions” at the top of the page.
- Underneath, I started listing out specific things I wanted to achieve.
- Instead of “Get better by writting”,I write down “Finish and sent one blog post”.
- Instead of “Find time to exercise”, I set “Take Morning running at lest 3 times a week.”
I kept coming back to the image on the card. What did that victory feel like? How would I celebrate? I tried to channel that energy into my intentions. So added to it,For example, I wrote “Share the blog post, and then the good comments to celebrate my little step.
It might sound a bit woo-woo, but it really helped me clarify what I wanted. It wasn’t just about “success” in a general sense. It was about feeling proud of my work, achieving specific goals, and, yeah, maybe even getting a little recognition for it.
I’m keeping the 6 of Wands on my desk this week as a visual reminder. I’ll let you know how it goes! Maybe this little tarot experiment will actually help me stay on track. It’s already made me feel more motivated, just by making my goals so clear. Fingers crossed!
