Spirit Keeper's Tarot

I am interested in seeing how others are doing with their work with the 2nd edition of Benebell’s deck? It seems even with a 3rd edition upcoming to be released, interest perhaps waned? I look forward to responses!

Bit late posting my reading here this week! The Ivory Shield - The Defector - Stronghold of the Zephyrs + The Lovers There’s a strong emotional pull to this week again. The Ivory Shield repeats her appearance as a guide in emotionally troubling times. The Defector is an indication that I’m about to abandon a path to pursue something entirely different. This previous path has been a success but further growth lies in an entirely new endeavour. It’s difficult to relate this to something which is happening this week. It’s possible that it refers to a particular way of doing things at work which is replaced by an entirely new structure. This new structure is …

The Initiate - The Ivory Shield - The Giver The energy if this week is very different from last week. There is a softness and flow to the energy - anchored in by the Ivory Shield. There is a circular, curling energy present on all 3 cards. The wheels on The Initiate transform to the Shield which is then multiplied into the Orbs. A new cycle is beginning - Spring for the soul but this renewal will involve some difficult emotional work. The Ivory Shield offers protection and support as well as shielding me from distractions to allow this work to be done. The Giver reminds me of the energy of generosity - what am I ready to give or receive? The Orbs are what…

Forecast for this week: The Mason - Bread of Life - The Demon Two of these cards are repeats from previous weeks. There is a solidity and grounding to them thanks to the earthy nature and prevalence of Capricornean energy. This will be a week of hard graft. The only way to make progress is to knuckle down and get on with it. The potential upside is that this hard work will pay off. The Ace portends a time of fruition and future prosperity. The only potential downside is if I let my Shadow take over. Work has been particularly challenging recently and I’ve been feeling a familiar desire to quit. This would potentially be very unwise at the moment and …

More than halfway through the process now and I’m starting to find my own rhythm. Benebell’s approach is very structured which is helpful in some ways but in any ‘non routine’ week it is difficult to follow precisely. My approach is more fluid and I’ve accepted that there are some weeks where I cannot do everything she suggests. The Bereaved - Stronghold of the Zephyrs - The Memory Keeper - The Shining Dew Three of these cards are repeated from last week so similar energies are in play. In some ways, these cards depict what are often ‘seasonal’ feelings and experiences for me. The Bereaved as the first card, brings grief to …

My reading for this week: The Shining Dew - The Memory Keeper - Stronghold of the Zephyrs - The Holy See Last week was focussed on practical matters with a lot of Orbs. This week the focus shifts more to the emotional. Shining Dew is the advice to slow down, to be fluid enough to roll with the punches and allow the flow of karma to take me where needed. It is also a message to express myself in a creative, artistic way. The Memory Keeper speaks to me of nostalgia, a longing for the simple pleasures of childhood. When this card appears it can mean that the veil between worlds is thin. This feels true at the moment - my dreams has been fu…

Here’s the thread for the new week. My adherence to the daily activities was abysmal last week. Going on holiday threw out the whole routine! Back to normal this week though so fingers crossed for more commitment. Will be back later to post my reading.

Just setting the thread up ready. Not sure when I’ll be able to post my reading as I’m on holiday and my connection to the forum is very intermittent!

Starting this week's topic so it's here for all! I'm actually on holiday this week, so though I've pulled the weekly forecast cards (did it on Saturday before I left!) I've not sat down with them yet. I'll pop in later and add the picture of the cards, plus my thoughts about them. EDIT: Aargh, I've just realised I've named it differently to the other weeks! That's going to irritate me...I'm Aquarius Sun but Virgo Rising, and the Virgo in me ain't happy 😞

Ready for another week! The tarot forecast is the natural, easy part of the routine and I’m getting more of a handle on the prosperity ritual. Wednesday is proving a slippery day - I just forget to the gratitude exercise. Forecast for this week: Sacred Fire - The Tower - The Hector It’s interesting to see the Sacred Fire appear again especially as it appeared in a more negative form last week. The energy here feels even more powerful. It builds and builds until something finally burst out and destroys that Tower. The sequence ends with the Hector. There will be a victor emerging from the ashes but it will not be done ‘fairly’. It’s important to avoi…

Lost focus a bit last week...I get off to a flying start but the weekend seems to be a struggle. Probably because I’m trying to fit it around family. This week’s cards: The Eminence - Sacred Fire - The Haunt The spread is bookended by two Nines. There is a dense energy to the week which contrasts with the lightness of the Sacred Fire. The two female figures put me in mind of myself - the persona which is independent, assured, capable and the other which is struggling with anxiety. The outer presentation is very different to the inner world. With the Sacred Fire between them, there is the possibility of a transformation. A burst of creative energy ca…

Week 5! Nearly a quarter of the way through the process and I feel like I still need to tweak things to make the best of the suggested daily focus.

Let's go! Last week was a strange one for me: it was my final week at the workplace I've been at for the last ten years. The latter end of the week was very much coloured by that, so I wasn't quite as good about following the 22 Weeks format as previously. This week? No excuses 👍

Just getting the thread set up ready for tomorrow. My aim this week is to improve the areas I’ve not found a groove with yet.

Here is the thread for the second week. I’m so ready to tackle another week of the workbook. Feeling a bit more prepared now that I’ve gone through the week once.

This thread is for those who are using the workbook created by Benebell Wen. It’s a space to share your insights and discuss how you are working with the material. Feel free to post your weekly tarot forecast in this thread too.

Your experiences with coloring the major arcana or the entire deck.

Getting the ball rolling on a SKT study group here! Whether you're guided by Wen's The Book of Maps or strictly by your own methods (or are somewhere in between) all ways of reading with SKT are welcome. If you're ordering the second edition that arrives in August, you can jump in now too! Cards are available to view HERE. "Medium White Book" free HERE Feel free to add a thread if there's something you want to dive into. For individual cards, I was thinking anyone could post a thread for cards you want to discuss with no particular order required, unless a majority of people would rather go in order... Shout out if you have a preference. Thoughts about th…
