Most of us know our star sign, but did you know that we each have a set of Tarot Birth Cards?First, you need your life path number. To get this, add up all the digits in your birthday. My birthday is 22nd January 1982 – or, in numbers, 22.01.1982. So the sum would be: 2 + 2 + 0 + 1 + 1 + 9 + 8 + 2 = 25. You’re aiming for a single digit number, so if yours is above 9, you then ‘reduce’ this number by adding the two together. Keep reducing til you get a single digit. Like 2 + 5 = 7.
Number 1
You can take any situation that life throws at you and turn it into something that benefits you and others. You see yourself as the creator of your destiny, rather than being at the mercy of your fate, and with this mindset, you can achieve your greatest dreams and desires. Your gift is your ability to manifest and attract good fortune.
Number 2
You are a seeker of truth. You are talented at weighing up a situation and seeing it for what it truly is. You are not bound by rules 100% of the time – instead you have this innate ability to see through the veil and determine what is really going on. You are an intuitive decision-maker, guided by your gut feeling when dealing with challenging situations. You can easily ‘read’ a situation without having all of the information at hand.
Number 3
You are a soulful creative with this Tarot Birth Card combination. You have the gift of creative expression and you do so by taking a step back and seeing the world from a different angle. You may be more passive and contemplative by nature, but it allows you to open up to new experiences and new perspectives that others do not see. This allows your creativity to blossom and come forth in new and exciting ways. As an artist, your art comes from a soulful, spiritual place.
Number 4
You are a change agent, here to restructure the world around you. You have clear insight into when a situation or way of operating no longer serves you or the greater society, and you are not afraid to implement sweeping changes in order to set a new path. You are here to rebuild and lay down the foundations for something new to emerge. And you step into a position of leadership when it is needed, so as to advocate the change that is in place.
Number 5
You acknowledge the importance of setting a framework to guide your thinking and your actions, but you also have a talent for flowing in and out of that framework, depending on the situation. You are flexible and adaptable, but also respectful of tradition and convention. Your gift is to be able to share this balance with those around you, by taking conventional wisdom and showing others how to integrate it into their lives. You may be a teacher, a spiritual guide, a life coach or a mentor.
Number 6
You are here to love – to give love, to receive love, to make love. You are guided by a deep love for the Universe but you also need to be careful that this love does not turn into desire or lust. You are deeply passionate and can direct that passion for the greater good of society when you apply your highest morals and values to your decision-making. You dance the fine line between freedom and boundaries, and make the best decisions when you are acting from a place of inner truth and Universal love.
Number 7
You are a mover and a shaker! You’re here on this earth to challenge the status quo, to shake things up and to tear down the barriers and obstacles that get in our way. You are known for speaking your mind and being incredibly determined and forthright. Nothing will stop you on your path! You have no fear and you continually rise to the challenge, even when many others would quit. You are a game changer and a force to be reckoned with.
Number 8
You’re here to shine your bright light in this world and create a sense of hope, faith and strength not just for yourself but others. You are travelling on your own soul’s journey but you are also inspiring others to find their path. With this Tarot Birth Card pair, you are a healer and a source of light for many people. Your personality is optimistic and hopeful. You have complete trust in the Universe, knowing that you are being guided along your path. You come from a place of deep inner strength that is fortified by the strength of your belief and your faith.
Number 9
You have a natural talent and ability to see ‘through’ things. Your focus is not on what is directly in front of you, but what is going on behind the scenes. You are interested in the subconscious mind, the intuition, and all that is hidden and unseen. And you have a deep desire to uncover your spiritual path and do so through meditation, spiritual journeying, visualization and so on. You may be a recluse and prefer to withdraw from the world around you so that you can focus your attention on your spiritual path and inner knowledge. You stand in the shadows so you can observe from afar, taking in all that is unseen.
