My Tarot Deck Literally EXPLODED When I Tried to Read This Week’s Cards

Let's work through our reluctant energy together, friends.

TAROT TUESDAYS: 07/22/2025

Each week I seek guidance for our community with the help of Earth Woman Tarot by Tarn Ellis and The Green Witch’s Oracle Deck by Arin Murphy-Hiscock & Sara Richard. Here’s what guidance we received this week:

The Reading

Three cards: one for present energy, one for energy to be integrated, and one for guidance. A Green Witch oracle card then inspires our weekly creative action.

CARD ONE: THE STAR

BUT FIRST… I need to tell you something about this reading. The deck was HARD to shuffle today. This energy was reluctant to come out, like it was protecting itself or us from something that needed to be faced. The cards kept sticking together, refusing to separate cleanly, and at one point they exploded everywhere. I almost put the deck away twice. But the second I drew the Spring oracle card at the end, I felt this huge release, like the deck had been holding its breath and finally exhaled.

So, I have a feeling a lot of you were hesitant going into this reading today. Maybe you’re at the point where you just want to give up, or at the point where you have a general disdain and distrust for your spirituality, and I’m here to say that’s valid.

I’m glad you clicked and are here today anyways. Let’s get into it.
