Made this because of yet another Tumblr fiasco! Im a queer witch trying to find a new home that offers the same quirkyness as tumblr. But without the problems :)
Hey everyone! So what I am sharing with you today is a card exercise that can be used to improve a variety of different skills. Telepathy for spirit communication, intuition, & more! I will explain how with a few different ones later, but feel free to get creative! Best thing about this, is it really only requires a deck of cards, and something to record your answers. The great thing about this exercise is that you can scale the difficulty of it as well!
Items Needed:
Deck of Playing Cards
Notebook or paper and a pen (to record your answers)
What You Need To Do – Basic Steps
First off, shuffle your deck. Now with your deck shuffled, pull one card from the top, place it face down (no peeking!). Now this is where you can include a spirit companion if you are working on telepathy with them! Keep in mind you can also use this practice to strengthen your other clair-senses as well! Have your companion sit with you and tell you if the card you chose is red or black. Don’t worry about any other thing on the card, just red or black.
If you are trying to strengthen a intuition or anything else, try to feel if the card is red or black instead of telling a companion to tell you.
Tips: Trust your first instinct. You may just feel stronger one way or the other, get a flash of color in your head, or however you may sense it or your companion may hint it to you. Go with your gut!
Make sure to record your answers! With just doing just red & black, you have a 50% chance per card of getting it right, so when you are getting 70-80% right consistently, progress so its a little harder!
Ways To Progress The Exercise
Alright so time to make it a bit harder: progress as follows:
Colors Only (Black/Red)
Suits Only (Clubs, Diamonds, Hearts, Spades)
Colors & Suits
Face/Pip Cards Only (Ace, 2, 3, 4, King, etc)
Face/Pip & Colors
Face/Pip & Suits
Exact Cards
Safe time to progress is when you are hitting 60-80% accuracy for the first few. Progress as you feel comfortable on the last few! Good luck!
I was taught this exercise several years ago, so credit goes to whoever really thought of it (I can’t remember who taught it to me!). But I really hope you enjoy this and it helps you!
