  • Summary

  • Tarot cards has been a journey of over 30 years for me. I took a two and a half day course to learn how to read tarot and I was hooked. At the time, I wanted to learn how to read tarot because I loved having my cards read and I wanted to demystify it, and also learn how to do it for myself and others.

    Since this was a new skill, I relied heavily on learning the cards and the positions in the spread. It was a memorization game. It took many years to be able to put the stories together, and even longer to get out of my head and trust my intuition (which I still struggle with).

    Tarot has been an exciting journey in my personal life. In my professional life, I am an instructional designer, course writer and digital content creator. Needless to say, it was a matter of time before I took on the personal project of sharing how I learned to read tarot cards, which truly was building on the basics - which is the symbolism of the cards.

    Taking my experience in adult learning and course writing coupled with my passion for reading cards, I created these three minute podcasts to help card readers learn as I did. Ok... they aren't EXACTLY 3 minutes. I'm not THAT good! But I am around that 2.5 to 3.5 minute mark, with special episodes sometimes being longer. Please know there is so much more to know, but this should give a beginner some basics.

    For people that already have a familiarity with the cards, taking in the podcast may be a great way to focus on the lessons. For those that would do better with accompanying visuals, I would recommend searching for the card for viewing in the deck, on your computer or phone. I have used the Rider Waite deck to build this podcast course, because it is the deck that I learned on, and it is still my favorite tarot card deck.

    Even though I love the woo woo nature of cards, astrology and numerology, it can be confusing when discussing the technical aspects of the cards, and flip flopping in and out of the fluff makes it hard to learn a new skill. This audio course sticks to point so that a person learning can stay in their left brain of "doing" instead of "feeling". I love the fluff and the feeling piece, but for me, I needed to learn the cards before I could lean into how I felt and to incorporate the woo woo on my spiritual path. And .... we can only do so much in three minutes, in the spirit of focusing on basics to start, and repeating key messages (like the suit!) to help them stick.

    Happy learning!

Here is my YouTube Channel video for interpreting cards in Three Card Spreads: https://youtu.be/P8En-8-8njk?si=7LIlOsFv9pNZ9iK7 Here is the transcript:Welcome to the "Memorizing Tarot Cards" podcast, your three-minute lessons on learning and memorizing each card using symbolism. I use the Rider Waite Tarot, but you can view the card while you listen using your own Tarot card deck or a computer. Today, we're exploring The Star card, focusing on reversals. Let's start with the divine meaning of the card and then its meaning when reversed.The upright Star is a card of hope, renewal, and faith in the future. It reminds us that healing and inspiration are always within reach, even after challenges. When reversed, The Star's energy can feel blocked or diminished. It may reflect a loss of faith, discouragement, or a sense of being out of touch with one's inner light. The reversed Star often appears during moments of self-doubt or when external circumstances seem overwhelming. It's a gentle nudge to reconnect with your sense of purpose and to trust that brighter days are ahead, even if they're not immediately visible. So, what happens when The Star reversed appears in a reading? When The Star Reversed appears in a reading, it's a sign to examine where you may feel disconnected or discouraged. Suppose you are losing sight of your goals or struggling to see a way forward. In that case, this card reminds you that there is always an opportunity to find renewal and inspiration, even in challenging times. It may suggest a need to nurture yourself. The reversed Star encourages you to focus on self-care, allowing time to rest and recharge to reconnect with your inner light. So, what is the best way to memorize The Star card in reverse? Tying the card to a personal experience helps me remember it. For example, my reversed Star card was when I moved from my parent's home in Ontario to Western Canada when I was 19. The first year I was there, I had a lot of trouble making friends. I was a nanny and didn't have a car, so I spent a lot of time in the home taking care of three children. Outings with the kids were limited to parks in the area that we could walk to. I was lonely and isolated, and I felt like it was Groundhog Day every day. Even though I wasn't into tarot cards back then, I needed to recognize the energy of the Star Reversed and get back to why I moved across the country. I found myself back in the Star Upright by taking control of the situation. I started volunteering after hours to try to meet people. I also contacted the nanny agency that placed me and asked if any other nannies were interested in play dates with their kids. These actions started turning that Star card upright.That's all for today's Star Card Reversed episode. Remember, to memorize tarot, keep practicing tarot.

I use the Rider Waite Tarot, but you can view the card while you listen using your own Tarot card deck or a computer. Today, we're exploring The Tower card, focusing on reversals. Let's start with the divine meaning of the card and then its meaning when reversed.The Tower Upright is a powerful card of sudden change, upheaval, and the breaking down of old structures. It's about dramatic shifts that shake us to our core, often clearing the way for new growth. When The Tower appears reversed, this energy becomes more internal or resisted. It may point to a fear of change, or an avoidance of disruption going on in your life. The reversed Tower often suggests that a significant internal shift is occurring while the external chaos may not be obvious. It's a call to pay attention to the changes and embrace the process, even if it feels uncomfortable. So, what happens when The Tower reversed appears in a reading? When The Tower reversed appears in a reading, it's a sign to reflect on what changes you might resist. Sometimes, it can indicate a fear of letting go or avoiding a brutal truth. This card suggests that it's time to confront these areas with courage and openness, knowing that the discomfort of change often leads to freedom and renewal. It can also indicate that you're undergoing a subtle but profound transformation. Even if it's not obvious to others, these internal shifts pave the way for a new chapter. The reversed Tower encourages you to trust this process, even if it feels uncertain or challenging.So, what is the best way to memorize The Tower card in reverse? Tying the card to a personal experience helps me remember it. For example, my reversed Tower card moment is changing my habits to manage my health and weight. The difficult truth I had to face was that I wasn't doing what I needed to do to make the changes I wanted to make. I made a lot of lifestyle upgrades in 2024, and I am focusing on consistency with those habits. But I was slow to get behind my self-care. I still have a long way to go. Still, I am super aware of the years I was in a Reversed Tower, telling myself I was making changes when I was only dabbling in taking steps to improve my health. That's all for today's Tower Card Reversed episode. Remember, to memorize tarot, keep practicing tarot.

I use the Rider Waite Tarot, but you can view the card while you listen using your own Tarot card deck or a computer. Today, we're exploring The Devil card, focusing on reversals. Let's start with the divine meaning of the card and then its meaning when reversed.The Devil upright represents temptation, bondage, and the shadow aspects of our lives such as addictions, fears, and unhealthy attachments. When reversed, The Devil takes on a more liberating energy. It suggests that you recognize what's been holding you back and take steps to free yourself from those chains. The reversed Devil is a card of empowerment. It indicates you're ready to confront your fears, let go of limiting beliefs, and reclaim control over your choices and actions. So, what happens when The Devil reversed appears in a reading? The Devil reversed can also point to a fear of fully letting go. You may know what needs to change but feel hesitant about taking the final steps. This card encourages you to trust the process and understand that the freedom you seek is worthwhile. Sometimes, the reversed card may indicate subtle influences still lingering in your life. Even as you make progress, there may be remnants of old patterns that need attention. The Devil reversed invites you to continue the work, knowing that even small steps lead to meaningful transformation. So, what is the best way to memorize The Devil card in reverse? Tying the card to a personal experience helps me remember it. For example, my reversed Devil card moment was choosing to move to contract jobs instead of employee roles. I felt all the fear and uncertainty but I kept taking those small steps toward my goal, until I arrived. An example was calling business schools to learn how to get on their rosters. I wasn't doing that all day long, but that is an example of an action I took, instead of sitting in fear and losing time doing research. I just started making steps until I started getting jobs. Eventually, I got busy.That's all for today's Devil Card Reversed episode. Remember, to memorize tarot, keep practicing tarot.
