Relationship readings are one of my most popular requests, so I found it high time for an episode on tarot for relationships. In this episode, I offer 3 different spreads to use for relationships and demonstrate each one. The first is the most commonly used relationship spread, next is a spread for arguments and conflict inspired by the book Fight Right by the Gottmans, and last is a spread for those of you in long committed relationships to help bring your connection a little more attention.

Synchronicities are meaningful coincidences that cannot be explained by reason, yet these moments are infused with deep significance. This concept, explored in depth by psychologist Carl Jung, is key to understanding how tarot works and the tarot delivers synchronicities to us constantly. In this episode, we talk about this magical phenomenon, how it relates to tarot and dreams, and how to work with cards that just won't leave us alone a.k.a. stalker cards! At the end, I offer 4 ways to work with stalker cards and provide a simple "stalker spread" for digging into a reappearing card that you just don't understand. Join my newsletter!

In the Matrix, the Oracle points to a sign in her kitchen that means "know thyself." This is exactly what the High Priestess in tarot asks of us. She demands that we look at whats hidden: our secrets, our shadow, the things we've shoved into the dark. This episode is a deep dive into this mysterious and alluring figure. We cover the astrology, numerology, and mythology tied to the card, explore some high priestess characters in popular fiction, and talk about how to work with this card in your own tarot practice. We close with a high priestess inspired tarot spread.

Understanding the meaning of individual cards is important of course, but the true art of tarot is making connections between multiple cards. It can be challenging to get past interpreting one card at a time, so in this episode I lay out 5 steps for reading multiple cards together. The magic is in zooming out and getting a sense of the bigger picture. I'm now offering a beautiful combination of Tarot + Energy Healing with Reiki. Book a session on my website .

I consider the kings and queens in tarot to both be "masters" of their suit. So if they are both the master, how are they different? In this episode, we expand our view of the kings and queens beyond the stereotypical feminine and masculine archetypes. We look at modern examples of kings and queens and how the feeling behind both terms can take on different energies.

We fear it, we hate it, we crave it, we need it...that's right it's the Tower. Yes it may bring about some of the hardest times in our lives, but where would we be if divine intervention didn't destroy the towers that we imprison ourselves in? In this episode, I talk about why the Tower is one of the most feared cards (and one of my favorite cards) and where we can find hope in it. I share a story of a personal Tower moment in my life and offer a truly special spread inspired by the Tower.

The discomfort of not knowing is something we all struggle with and is why some of us might go to a tarot reader. We just want to know what's going to happen! In this episode, I talk about the importance of embracing the unknown, of finding comfort in the fact that we can't possibly know everything.

Each number has its own energy, associations, and is itself a symbol that can enhance our understanding of the cards numbered ace through ten.

In this episode, I discuss how Justice is closely tied to feelings and emotions despite how emotionless the card may look.

We end with a creative spread to help deal with conflict and issues of fairness. www.mariofthewoods.com IG: @mariofthewoods
In this episode, I talk about the importance of not giving your power away to the cards. But if the cards don't tell us what to do, what exactly do they do for us? Listen for my take on the magic of the tarot and how it works. I take us through an example reading with the 10 of swords to demonstrate what it looks like when we give our power away to the cards versus when we use the cards to empower US. Then I share some stories of when the tarot was extra magical and spooky and offer an exercise for using tarot cards to inspire questions to ask ourselves as reflection questions or journal prompts. www.mariofthewoods.com IG: @mariofthewoods
