My Unwitting Journey Into the Tarot World - Part 2

Intro: The Posters on My Wall Were More Than Decor

It all began with three posters. I didn’t find them in some mystical shop or at a street market brimming with spiritual trinkets — I found them on Amazon. I was browsing for wall art to liven up my space when I stumbled upon these striking images. At the time, I didn’t know what they were or where they came from. All I knew was that I had to have them.

The posters featured beautiful depictions of The Star, The Moon, and The Sun from the Tarot’s Major Arcana. Their colors were vibrant yet soothing, and their imagery was both captivating and mysterious. I wasn’t actively looking for anything spiritual, but something about these pieces spoke to me. Without much thought, I added them to my cart, bought them, and within a few days, they were hanging on my wall.

For five years, those posters were part of my everyday life. I’d walk past them countless times, sometimes barely noticing them and other times pausing to admire their beauty. They had a calming presence, almost like silent companions. I didn’t know what they represented, and I didn’t think to question it. They were simply art — or so I thought.

But even then, there were moments when I felt drawn to them in ways I couldn’t explain. I would catch myself staring at The Star, feeling a sense of hope and renewal, or at The Moon, feeling a deep pull toward something hidden and mysterious. The Sun always seemed to brighten my day with its warmth and vitality. I didn’t understand why these images resonated with me so deeply; I only knew they made me feel something profound.

It wasn’t until years later, when I began exploring Tarot, that the significance of these posters became clear. These weren’t just random designs or abstract symbols. They were representations of some of the most powerful archetypes in the Tarot deck. The Star spoke of inspiration and spiritual guidance, The Moon of intuition and the subconscious, and The Sun of joy and enlightenment.

Looking back, I realize how serendipitous it was that I chose these three cards without even knowing what they were. Why these and not others? Why did they stand out to me when I had no knowledge of Tarot? It feels as though the universe was subtly guiding me, aligning me with these energies long before I consciously recognized them.

These posters weren’t just decorations; they were invitations. They were quiet, persistent reminders that there was a deeper world waiting to be explored, a journey I was destined to undertake. For years, they hung on my wall, patient and unassuming, until the day came when their true meaning revealed itself to me.

Now, when I look at those posters, I see them for what they truly are: the beginning of my unwitting journey into the Tarot world. They were my first connection to the cards, long before I ever held a deck in my hands. And though I didn’t know it at the time, they were the first sign that my path had already begun.
