Exploring Your Spiritual Needs: A Tarot Card Journey
Written on
Discovering our spiritual requirements can often feel more complex than addressing our physical needs, which are usually indicated by clear signals like hunger or fatigue. To assist you in navigating your spiritual landscape, I have designed a tarot card reading. Simply focus on the piles of cards presented above; the candle that draws your attention is your intuition signaling that there's a message from the spirit realm waiting for you.
Once you've made your selection, scroll down to find your pile or choose from the options below.
- Pile 1: Green Candle
- Pile 2: Purple Candle
- Pile 3: Blue Candle
For this reading, I will be utilizing the Golden Art Nouveau Tarot deck (an affiliate link that supports my tarot practice). Three cards will be drawn to reveal what your soul is currently seeking.
It's time to delve into what your spirit needs to understand.
Pile 1: Green Candle
Manifestation Challenges
The first card drawn, The Empress, Reversed, indicates that your ability to manifest may be hindered at this time. This could suggest that your spiritual gifts are not fully accessible, impacting your creativity and other productive endeavors.
You might feel a sense of frustration as you can envision what you desire to manifest, yet it remains elusive. This is not merely due to unrealistic expectations; your usual manifestations are faltering, leading to diminished confidence and a spiritual block.
Seeking Guidance
To find clarity on your next steps, look to the King of Swords. This figure represents rational thought and extroverted action, contrasting the more introspective energy of The Empress. Both masculine and feminine energies coexist within everyone.
Notice the butterfly symbols present behind the King of Swords. They suggest a spiritual connection in all you do; even outside formal rituals, you can honor your spirituality through your actions.
While you may currently struggle with manifesting your desires, maintain patience. By continuing to engage in logical actions, you will uncover new insights about your surroundings and recognize the spiritual elements that are often overlooked.
The Importance of Action
The final card, Four of Swords, Reversed, advises against interpreting patience as passivity. Typically a card of rest, its reversal signals a time of awakening and intentional action in your life.
You must trust that your efforts will eventually lead to the manifestations you seek. The Law of Attraction emphasizes believing that what you desire is on its way to you.
Spirit may be holding back some of your gifts to help you align your physical experiences with your spiritual aspirations. Instead of merely wishing for spiritual connections or creative breakthroughs, act as if they are already occurring.
The pathway to your desired manifestations may lie in your actions. Do not overlook the possibility that spirit wishes to see consistent, intentional behavior from you before your dreams come to fruition. This is how your body aligns with your soul.

Pile 2: Purple Candle
Discontent in Life
Your first card, Four of Cups, depicts a young man rejecting an offered cup. Interestingly, he seems to be asleep, suggesting a lack of awareness rather than a conscious decision.
It appears that life isn't unfolding as you expected. Despite available opportunities, you may not recognize their value or even be aware of them, leading to diminished enthusiasm and a sense of unfulfillment at the soul level.
The Need for Stillness
Following that, the Eight of Wands indicates rapid movement in your life. While many opportunities arise, the fast pace may overwhelm you, leaving little time to contemplate your next steps.
I recommend taking a few minutes each day to meditate. Though I personally struggle with meditation, even a brief practice can help clear your mind and relax your body. Consider trying guided meditations, which might be more manageable for you.
The benefits of meditation are significant, especially given the whirlwind of activity surrounding you right now.
Furthermore, observe the butterflies associated with the Eight of Wands. They appear to guide the wands as they soar through the sky. Although you might not perceive the positive workings of spirit at this moment, trust that your soul is embarking on a meaningful journey.
Discovering What Resonates
The last card for this pile is Three of Swords, traditionally symbolizing heartbreak. However, in light of your other cards, it may carry a different connotation.
The suit of swords represents decision-making and clarity. Your current experiences are shaping your understanding, allowing you to reflect on what is truly beneficial for your soul's evolution.
Regrettably, you may realize that some desires you held are not meant to be. This realization can be painful, and the swift pace of change may be spirit's way of minimizing your suffering. Nevertheless, you will gain valuable insights into what truly serves you, making it easier to pursue opportunities that align with your happiness.

Pile 3: Blue Candle
Facing Betrayal
The initial card drawn for you, Ten of Swords, reveals a sense of betrayal by someone you trusted deeply. This may involve a person who you believed to be a spiritual guide or mentor.
You may have confided in this individual, only to find that they misled you. A deceptive spirit guide can warp your intuition, leading you toward poor decisions and producing unsettling tarot readings that feel coerced.
While this experience can affect anyone, those undergoing trauma—be it emotional or mental—are particularly vulnerable to spiritual negativity. This can manifest as harmful behaviors, addictions, or detrimental relationships.
Rebuilding Trust
The next card, Six of Wands, Reversed, indicates that your self-confidence and sense of personal achievement have been undermined. The impact of the Ten of Swords has led to a distrust of your own intuition, which is understandable. When negative forces infiltrate your spiritual realm, using your gifts can feel risky.
To heal, it might be best to refrain from relying solely on your intuition for now. Instead, seek a higher purpose or establish a routine. Many individuals find comfort in prayer or traditional faith, especially when faced with spiritual challenges.
Be cautious about seeking guidance from lesser spirits, as this can expose you to negative influences. It's important to connect with a higher power—be it the universe, your concept of God, or a steady routine. This doesn’t need to be a constant practice, but it can help align you with the greater good.
Healing from Betrayal
Fortunately, your final card, The Tower, Reversed, suggests you may evade the most severe repercussions of this betrayal and achieve healing. However, navigating this journey will require effort. If you find yourself in such a situation, leaning into your higher power can be profoundly restorative.
You might consider stepping back from your spiritual gifts until you feel more secure. Engaging in intuitive practices, such as tarot readings, may not be advisable. Instead, consider exploring divination methods like astrology, which do not rely on intuition.
Rest assured, you will soon be ready to reclaim your spiritual gifts. You’ll recognize your readiness when you feel an aura of positivity and renewed confidence surrounding you.
