When you read tarot or oracle cards, do you wonder, “Is this my intuition—or am I making it up?” Join Bertena on Spiritual Sanctuary for a welcoming exploration of intuitive tarot reading, oracle card interpretation, and the self-doubt that can arise when learning to trust your impressions.
In this episode, Bertena shares tarot and oracle card demonstrations, describing the images so audio listeners can follow along. Explore how to notice symbols, colors, and personal associations before opening the guidebook—and how to turn those impressions into thoughtful questions rather than absolute answers.
Whether you are learning tarot for beginners or deepening an existing spiritual practice, this episode offers a simple way to practice reading cards without needing to feel certain about every interpretation.
In this episode, we explore:
• Why we second-guess ourselves when reading tarot and oracle cards.
• How intuition, imagination, and personal associations can contribute to a reading.
• How to combine intuitive impressions with traditional tarot card meanings.
• A guided card-reading exercise using observation, impression, and reflection.
• How to ask open-ended questions and practice readings with another person.
• Ways to use tarot and oracle cards for journaling, self-discovery, and spiritual reflection.
Bring a tarot or oracle deck and a journal, or simply listen and reflect.
