Shadow work
With Tarot
I think shadow work is often over complicated, but under respected.
At its simplest shadow work is remebring things you have decided to forget, or not accept, about yourself.
At some point your psychological safety, cultural background, or community meant you had to repress these emotions, memories or knowledge. Shadow work is bringing them back into conscious memory.
It is essentail to tread gently, and understand that we are not always ready to do this work. Sometimes shadow work can trigger a bigger response than can be processed, or cause real harm if you are still living in the situation that caused the need to repress the emotions in the first case.
Module 1-
Introducing shadow work.
It's really hard to talk about shadow work, in this module I want to explore real life examples to bring the concept into reality.
Before you can consider trying shadow work on anyone else, you need to have experienced it for yourself. So in this module I encourage you to explore shadow readings for you.
Remember you can come back to this module, and journey deeper with time.
Be playful, journal, self care. And feel free to adjust my spreads, my tools, to make it work for you.
Module 2-
Practical Tarot spreads
When I read for a client I pull as many cards, or run through as many spreads, as I need to- within my time constraints.
Because many Tarot readings include shadow work on some level- telling a client what they are aware of on some level, but just can't quite hold in their conscious mind.
Reading in this way means reading a series of spreads, some of which I just confirming what a client has already told me- but running deeper I follow a thread to bring a shadow belief into the light.
Follow me on a journey- and read alongside me, step by step, to explore my shadow wound with money and security. My sun & Chiron formed a transit conjunction in my fourth house, the same week as a partial solar eclipse in my fourth house (home & security). I am also going through an unsettling investigation by UK benefits, and my husband has now cancelled seeing the kids three times in a row. My income is mostly my paid work-topped up by benefits & maintenance. So this has triggered a huge fear based response.
This is a typical 80 minute client session, broken down into a series of spreads, and then breaking many spreads down into smaller steps.
Read the PDF, then listen to the audio, explore how you processed each reading with my process. (not looking for right or wrong, rather learning as you go.)
Once you've worked through my readings have a go at your own.
Choose an area of your life that you feel blocked in. Do you struggle with food, friendships, money, creativity, relaxing...
What area of your life would you like to enjoy more? Then work through a series of readings- journalling, unwinding into the process. Ideally allow a couple of hours- and break for a walk or food if it feels helpful.
Module 3- (May)
Shadow work for others
I'm grateful the Tarot world isn't regulated- because I like to have complete sovereignty over how I work.
But shadow work can be very triggering, and "I was only reading the cards" is NOT an excuse for causing harm when reading for others.
Hopefully you've now explored reading shadow spreads for yourself. This module is focused on how to hold a safe space for others.
