No matter what your dream is, I fully believe you should be pursing it.
I think we are called to our dreams for a reason, and the world would be a better place if more of us were in pursuit of our dreams and goals.
I believe chasing and pursing our dreams makes us happier, healthier, more fulfilled members of society. This makes us better citizens. And I think our the dreams we’re guided to are how we can best serve others.
On the whole, following your dreams has the power to radically transform your life!
As a dreamer myself, I’ve found that tarot can actually be a pretty powerful tool to help you make your dreams come true.
And just so we’re clear, when we’re talking about a “dream,” we’re talking about any dream you may have. Whether it’s a career change, starting a new business, or becoming the next big pop star. Tarot can help with any of these!
Now, if you’re new to this site, I should mention that I believe in using tarot as a tool for action and empowerment. So, I’m not here to ask the cards a question to dictate my fate or to know if something is going to happen for me.
Instead, I use the cards to help me get better in touch with the actions I can take to create the reality I want to be living in.
So with that in mind, here are 7 ways you can use tarot to help you make your dreams come true!
Get clear on your vision
If you’ve got a dream that’s feeling almost too big and overwhelming to dig into, tarot can help you gain focus and clarity.
A tarot reading can help you explore what your real mission or purpose is with your dream.
It can also help you better understand how your dream can impact others, which can help you narrow your focus and prioritize.
Additionally, it can help you better understand who you’re serving with this dream, or what the most fulfilling version of your dream would look like.
Digging into these types of questions can be really helpful whether you’re overwhelmed or not. It can help you get clear on the heart of your dream, why you’re doing it, and what the benefit is.
This will help you move forward with confidence and clarity, which can be especially helpful if you happen to be combating naysayers while you’re getting your bearings.
Having a clear focus and vision, and knowing your why, can very well be the difference between pursuing your dream and abandoning it.
Some questions you may ask at this stage include:
- Why is it important for me to pursue this dream?
- Who will I help with this dream?
- What’s my true purpose with this dream?
- What does the most fulfilling version of this dream look like for me?
- What is important for me to prioritize with this dream?
Find the courage and place to start
Starting can often be one of the most challenging parts on any dream.
A tarot reading designed around the early stages of your dream can give you the confidence you need to get started and/or guide you to the best place for your to start.
You can explore why this dream will be good and right for your to pursue. If you don’t know where to start, you can also dig into the initial steps you can take to get your dream off the ground.
This can give you the courage you need to get started and give you a direction to move in.
Some questions you might ask include:
- What’s the best place to start pursing this dream?
- Why is pursing this dream the right thing for me?
- What’s the most important thing I can do now as I start pursing my dream?
Create the the best path forward that aligns with you
I think we all know what it feels like to be lost in the weeds of a dream, journey, or goal.
If you find yourself lost or overwhelmed at any point on your journey to your dream, tarot can give you the insights and clarity you need to get back on track and move forward in a way that connects with your soul.
Tarot can help you create a new plan, understand what’s most important for you to focus on, or simply suggest what the most beneficial next steps might be.
Some questions you might ask include:
- What are the next steps I might consider to move closer to my dream?
- What’s the most important aspect of my dream I might consider focusing on now?
- How can I make my dream come true?
Overcome obstacles and challenges
It’s rare that a journey to a dream is a smooth one.
We’re all likely to face challenges and obstacles as we work to make our dreams come true. And while some may be manageable, others maybe more difficult to sort out.
Tarot can be a great resource! The cards can help you uncover overlooked options and untapped potential. They can also help guide you to the people or resources that may be able to assist you.
Some questions you might ask include:
- Who or what can help me overcome this challenge?
- What untapped resources can help me overcome this challenge?
- How can I overcome this obstacle or solve this problem?
Overcome mental blocks
Sometimes we are our own worst enemy. We may find ourselves in situations where we just feel blocked. Maybe we’ve hit a wall and don’t know what to do next.
But often times, our inner guidance does know what to do next, and the tarot cards can help bring this out.
Or sometimes, the fear of failure, perfectionism, or another emotion stops us from moving forward. We don’t always know why we’ve stopped, we just know we have and it sucks.
Tarot can help you find what’s stopping you and help you work your way through this barrier so you can get back to pursuing your dream.
Some questions you might ask include:
- What’s blocking me from accomplishing my dreams and goals?
- How can I get unblocked and move forward on my dreams?
- What step can I take next that will be best for me and my dream?
Gain clarity on important decisions
Let’s be honest, there can be a lot of decisions to make when it comes to pursing a dream. Some may be straight forward, but others can feel high-risk and/or overwhelming.
You may worry if you’re making the right choice, or feel so indecisive that it keeps you from making a choice all together.
I wouldn’t recommend asking the cards what you should do. That takes away your power. However, you can use tarot to guide you in the decision making process so you can make the best possible decision for you.
If you have to decide between two options, tarot can help you game out what might happen if you choose either option so you can make a more informed choice.
It can also help shine a light on what you need to be most mindful of and prioritize as you make your choice.
Some questions you might ask include:
- What might it look like if I choose option A? And what might it look like if I choose option B?
- What do I need to be mindful of as I make this decision?
- How can I make a decision that best aligns with myself and my dream?
Find faith and confidence when you’re feeling lost or confused
There are ups and downs on any dream journey. The downs are necessary; they make the taste of achievement even sweeter.
But when you’re in the middle of the downs, it can feel really shitty. And when you’re at the height of confusion or in the depths of defeat, it can be hard to find the faith and keep moving forward.
It may even be enough to convince you to give up all together.
Tarot can be a powerful tool to help you reconnect with your dream and purpose when you’re on the brink of giving up. It can remind you why you started, where you’re headed, and what the potential for this dream is.
I firmly believe any dream, no matter what it is, will come true as long as you don’t give up on it. So, using tarot to keep your dream alive can be a vital and valuable tool.
Some questions you might ask include:
- Why is it important that I stick with this dream?
- How can I reconnect with my dream and my purpose?
- How can I rediscover my drive to pursue my dream and my vision?
