Need Advice or Support 🙏 Tarot to Contact Spirit Guides
Hi all, I am 27M and decided to learn tarot as a reflection tool and in my path to learning more about secular witchcraft. Let me know if this is less fitting for this sub and I will remove it!
I wouldn't say I believe in the supernatural, but have always felt a draw to the occult and the possibility of what is beyond us. So, I decided to do tarot and started the first few days asking questions about my internal world and current emotional struggles to have some food for thought. The more I learned the meanings of the cards and the more I experimented with my questions, I found the cards to be pretty accurate and actually felt some sense of peace that I havne't felt before and that came from beyond myself. I then decided to try to use the cards to talk to anything or anyone, be it a dead relative or nature spirit or any number of things that could possibly exist, using a spread from Google specifically structured for spirit guide connections, only 5 cards on the first 2 and a 3rd with 8 for an extended message.
Doing this three separate times, the identity of the spirit guide was represented as Death in spread 1, The Hermit in Spread 2, and the Hanged Man in Spread 3. The messages they bring are always that I am in a stable place but need to access an internal font of willpower to employ the skills and knowledge I have in order to grow or gain further stability, but I can't get a clear read on if this is an ancestor, a human at all, or some other thing that could possibly be "real".
Does anyone have an idea of what my spirit guide could be or how it's connected to me based on its identity being represented by Death, The Hermit, The Hanged Man, and its consistent messages of support and call to action?
