I would say that most Taro card readers and other forms of fortune tellers are scams. If they are for real, they would have correctly guessed the winning lottery numbers for the next draw and hit the jackpot and quit their jobs for good.
Hi @Ellbat- I don't usually comment but I am curious! Being as how we both have the same last name, have you had to deal with people belching out the Batman theme song when they see you? 🤣 it gets annoying for sure, but since most people I talk to don't know how to spell it I just tell them it's like Batman w/an E in the middle. Anyways, love your videos!
Tarot has always been linked with the occult. It's a picture book disguised as a deck of cards. Even the oldest decks have symbols of Alchemy hermeticism and the tree of life(qabalah). Its really a meditation tool for western mystics or occultists. The new age community and some later occultists decided to strictly use it for fortune telling and profit. Watering down what it was really intended for.
@@ringo11994 Occult simply means "Knowledge, aka Hidden Knowledge" Years of Unregulated Journalists, Folks Associated with various Religions, and Fear Promoters, have created dark ideas around the subject. Very much like 24hr Cable News Produces around Political Subjects and Prejudices, based on Current Events but largely a created story. For their Power, Profits, and Private Agendas.
As someone who reads Tarot, in my experience it should be looked at as advice. As a way to reflect on what you've been through, accepting those emotions, and acknowledging where you want your life to go, what you're trying to get out of a career or if you want to stay in your job or network and grow. Tarot brings out our desires, fears, hopes, and provides reminders that we are in control of what happens moving forward
I agree--I also read Tarot and I do traditonal spreads that use the symbols and meanings of the cards to give feedback to the person to ponder and consider. It’s more like talking in counseling and coaching than anything else. There are common symbols and stories throughout all cultures in the world. Check out Joseph Campell and Carl Jung, who also refrence Tarot in their studies and writings about culture. Oh, and the Death card doesn’t mean you’re going to die. It’s about change and reinvention. :-)
I've never heard it explained this way but I think that makes so much sense and brings such a beauty to the art of reading them and to the universe itself
I'm a native Spanish speaker and when the guy was talking about crossing your arms it sounded logical to me, then you were all confused and that's when I realized, it is a translated saying and I understood because it is common in Spanish 😅. In Spanish crossing your arms means staying still without doing anything to achieve your goals and waiting for the outcome to be what you oped for. It's a pretty common saying in Latin America. "No te quedes de brazos cruzados".
I lived on the continent for the majority of my life and it’s so funny when sayings are translated in a very literal way. Like “folding your arm” being more akin to sitting back and doing nothing. It reminded me of a Dutch football coach once saying on a BBC interview “that’s another biscuit”, which basically means “that’s a different kettle of fish”. Neither would really understand the other properly unless you’re reasonably well versed in both languages. Language is great.
I have like 10 decks. I tend to pull a card and then ask myself questions related to the card. It's like a check-in with myself. And the art is often gorgeous.
I've always viewed things like tarot, astrology, etc., to mainly be tools for self-reflection rather than ways of predicting the future in any real way. It's more like "this is the kind of energy that exists for you right now" and then I can choose to use that or not, and I can use it in good ways or bad.
My best friend has been reading tarot for decades. He also reads auras. He refuses to read for children, wants to go into a reading with an absolutely clean slate, will give the client several decks from which to choose their reading (I think he’s got over 100 decks now). He is one of the most ethical people I’ve ever known. I’ve had fake readings, what I call fishing expeditions (“I see an M”). I’ve also had a Lakota woman, after a visit to a sweat lodge, tell me what my recently deceased dad wanted me to know, stuff she would have absolutely no way of knowing (I even asked my friend, who is good friends with her, if he told her anything; man, he was so indignant!). I’m skeptical, but the night before Halloween (Samhain), my dad, who had passed away several months before, clearly called my name, exactly the way he used to say it. My friend, the tarot reader, said the wall between this realm and the next is thinnest then. Loved Angela, btw.
Wow, something about Angela really strikes me as genuine, I don't know what it was but as soon as she started talking I had the thought that she was the real deal and just kept being amazed by her presence
I am also not a spiritual person, at all, but I love tarot. I look at it like a free therapist you can have whenever you want. Much like a therapist, the cards are just a way to look at your own thoughts and feelings in a new light. You give the cards meaning based on how you interpret them for yourself. They are a tool to help you think of new solutions to your problems and look at them from a new perspective. That's why they "work" for everyone because, much like a therapist often does, the cards just parrot your own thoughts back to you, but reframing them in a way you may not have considered before. My first tarot reading was from a friend in college and she basically told me I wasn't happy in what I was pursuing (I was studying business at the time) and I should pursue something creatively fulfilling instead. I CRIED. Like full on sobbed. Because no one had ever told me that before and it was something I'd secretly wanted my entire life, but thought was impossible for me so I never let myself consider it. Fast forward ten years and I've hated every business job I ever had, quit them, and started my own creative career which I now love. Did the cards "predict" my future? Or did I just hear from the cards what I'd wanted to hear all along?
I loved you conclusion at the end. Youre totally right - marriage, kids, money. That's what most people work towards and therefore may get. Also, been loving your video ideas! ❤️
I like tarot bc for me it’s more of a mindfulness thing. Thinking about what the cards are telling me makes me automatically reflect on different aspects of my life. And it’s also fun :)
I'm a intuitive Tarot reader. I see it as a way of helping the client focus on what is most important for them to know. I do short term, (3-6 months) and longer term, 6-12 months. I ask my client to not tell me anything about themselves until after the reading. I ask if the reading resonates with them and if they have any questions. I feel I am helping them and so far, 30 years, everyone has been happy.
I am a skeptic when it comes to this, but I would definitely do it for the entertainment value and (hopefully) confidence boost. Angela seemed like an absolute sweetheart ❤️
@@jessysmith7953 I never really comment on RUclips but honestly from doing tarot and learning a lot about it for almost 4 years, I learned that you don’t necessarily need to be spiritual to use them. You can kinda just see them as a tool, or just a fun hobby you don’t need to trust all that much. But it’s also cool that they’re also used in a lot of different religions like Christianity, even though some christians look down on it but I’m not sure why. I know that personal experiences can seem less credible but the amount of times they’ve detected cheating and peoples true intention it’s so amazing to watch unfold in real life. That being said, I’m not sure why you’re not open to spirituality but there’s a lot of positive things that come from it, but its definitely not for everyone
@@pooppeeeppopp7705 Obviously you enjoy it, and that's good for you. But I used to be highly into spirituality and I understood that it is a lot of deception, and that most of the time you're mainly interacting with demons. You might think I'm crazy but I'm just raising awareness to it. It is witchcraft.
@@jessysmith7953 oh no i completely understand what you mean, its just i think its depends on what you consume and how you learn teachings. theyres definitely categories of right and wrong and unsmart and smart. especially people coming from tiktok, like the spell recipes and deity worship thats pushed. most of the time the person isnt ready or doesn’t understand the seriousness and i think you can get negative energies attached to you. even then i think a portion of spirituality doesnt involve themselves in spirits other then their own, but i cant speak for ur experience
I’m a tarot reader. I don’t personally read for people as “telling the future”. I look at it as more of a “check in” in various aspects of life with the other person. And that’s how I read for myself as well. It’s honestly more of a taking of an emotional temperature? It’s hard to explain. For me, I don’t feel comfortable telling people super specific events like “you’re gonna have a baby” or “you’re gonna die at this age”. I just don’t see that when I read. It’s not to say no one else does…but for me it’s not the kind of thing I do. It’s more or less some loosely spiritual guidance and a kind of “weather forecast “ of a persons experience at that moment. It’s not as satisfying for folks looking for specific answers, but like….you should be making those decisions on your own anyway. It’s like going to a therapist…they never tell you what to do, but they lead you to decide for yourself in an informed and healthy way. And I’d like to think tarot can assist in a similar way
I think there's also some component of desperation and hope to a tarot reading. For many, when they decide to seek tarot (or similar services) they are lacking all hope from their usual systems of support (ex. Family, friends, work, medical providers, etc.). For the tarot reader, it's kind of crucial that no matter what the reading says that they frame it through hope and forward movement. And even though I know this and I'm skeptical, my last year in my doctoral program has me considering seeing out a tarot reader to give me something to hold onto.
As a tarot reader it can be used for many things not just a last ditch effort to find hope. My partner and I regularly use it for journaling, reflection, meditation, manifestation, advice, timing, and much more.
Yes this is true. I'm quite skeptical about everything. But I've been watching tarot readings this past year due to extreme loneliness, death, breakup, under-confidence, etc. I've been living in a foreign country alone and don't have many friends. It does give me comfort in a weird way.
sorry for the late response! But this is actually something angela mentioned, that as a tarot reader - you have a responsibility to ensure the wellbeing of your clients, and safeguard them from things you say that may horrendously impact them. She says she always tries to revive hope and happiness in the people she reads for as nothing is set in stone and people can always find a way to a better path. It was really interesting to hear about. I hope your doctoral program is going well and you feel more able to get through!! we are all cheering you on!
very neat! Angela was Def my fav of the 3. If you'e never had it done before and you like new experiences you should try getting your astrological Natal Chart read. There are lots of people who do it but if you wanna look to get an idea there is a reputable reader based in the UK here on RUclips, "written in the stars by Rux".
Interesting that the audio only reader said “you have a lot of ideas on the run as far as your professional life,” and the in person reader said that bit about you running and screaming down the road with the dollar signs over it
I got my fortune told; it was really fun because it was specific. Like, I definitely did not meet my soul mate at a holiday party when I was 27 who was Hispanic or Italian. But I still got great help from it. She told me I would work with kids and dogs, so I decided to try pursuing those types of jobs and found I actually like working with kids. She said we would get a small black dog, and now we do, and I love him so much! Even as self-fulfilling prophecies, I think having your future read can improve your life (assuming you only ask about positive things).
@haileycarroll2276 in *my* experience, there are not really "accurate" readers. A lot of times they are either self fulfilling or not meant to take literal. But I also have prophetic dreams of sorts about my own life. That are now 4/4 in terms of coming true
I really appreciate your objectivity throughout the video. The best thing about tarot is that it has so many uses. You can use it for self-reflection, predictions, writer's block, decision making, coming up with strategies to handle situations, and the list goes on. I enjoy using tarot as inspiration for making art and have done some videos on it. So even if you don't believe in it as a means of 'fortune telling', I bet there are others ways you can incorporate it into your life. Thanks so much for posting this fun video!
I look at each tarot card not as a means of telling the future but instead as multiple possible lessons. Whichever one resonates with me is the advice/meaning applicable to me at that time.
That was a lot of fun. I had my cards read decades ago and thinking back on it they were quite right in the long term. At the time I thought she was way off, and some of the things she got right were off the charts. I was a city boy, and she said I would spend parts of a few years working on the North Atlantic ocean. (I'd only been in a boat twice before at that time) She said I'd live in the USA for seven years and that I'd own a horse farm. All three came true.
I see it as a lot like the way I view horoscopes - no predictive power in itself, but generally good advice that gives the person an excuse to reflect. From that perspective, it doesn't much matter if it's "true" or not as long as the reader is operating in good faith and not manipulating or exploiting someone's trust. I wouldn't do it myself but as long as people don't push it on me I am glad it makes them happy.
I love doing tarot readings for people, although my cards aren't the best at future readings. More so this is what's happening and here's how to fix it lol
Lol my guides don't like me to know too much about my future too 😂 I think it's better that way though so I can focus on the lessons I'm learning and my experiences in the present. If I knew all the answers, it would defeat the purpose basically
Honestly. MOST readings are vague for a reason. A basic "knowledge" would make you think about the meaning, and, as you can see in in this video, interpret things yourself. It's normally NOT the reader giving the information, but the questioner. In witchcraft, all tools are just that: tools. They are used to focus on a question, they don't give answers. The person(s) using the tools decide on the answers. As you said before: it's just a moment in time. Tomorrow, things can be completely different. Whenever you get information, you ALWAYS act on it. Often, readers who interact with you, and try to get you to provide information are seen as LESS genuine. Unfortunately, the biggest fakes do try to get you to say things so they can come across as more believable, but the best readers also use this information to give you REAL answers. The cards themselves don't tell you sh**, it's how you use them that matters ;) (Yes, I use tarot cards sometimes. Along with sooooo many other tools.) If you don't understand exactly what's meant, the information you get likely holds less value. That's not to say the reader didn't do their job correctly, it's just that you need to understand information for it to hold any value for you XD As for the friend in October part: I'd LOVE to meet you in person! If you happen to be in the Netherlands in that month, send me a message ;) As far as witchcraft is concerned; "the universe" doesn't care about gender. Asking what the gender of your future child will be wouldn't get any consistent results because of that XD
I used to be quite skeptical about tarot until my friend took up reading. She always reads me very accurately even when I haven't spoken to her in a while and I became much more open because of her.
I would say that it is usually accurate because every card means something else to someone else. It's kinda more of a self-mindedness thing then fortune telling. Guidance of sort. How you interpret the cards is in the eye of the beholder. Advice that you can take or not. Something to look out for. I think that's what is beautiful about it.
I was skeptical of tarot reads at first, but a friend of mine did me some readings and they were really accurate, which shocked me a little. I do believe that being in person with the tarot reader is a huge deal, as they can feel some energies (from what my friend told me) I still take the readings with a grain of salt, but it's really interesting to see what turns out to be true or not
Oh my god you’re so lucky. I’m kind of skeptical about Tara as well, but I’m also terrified because my mom had a terror Reed once, and they literally told her that someone in their family would die in a month later her cousin died.
That last reader was Spanish...crossing your arms is an expression we say which means "do nothing". For example: "She saw me struggling with all the grocery bags and she just stood there with her arms crossed". It's not a literal description, just a saying :)
I got nothing against people who tell fortunes using cards and cultural props from cultures they don't bother to learn about or respect. I got nothing against people who claim to know futures based on ancient miscalculations of the movements of stellar bodies. I have massive problems with people who claim to "commune with spirits of the departed" and other such shysters. I *despise* psychics and mediums who prey on people's grief and manipulate memories of people's departed loved ones for their own financial gain. Just thought I'd have a little rant. And now back to our regularly scheduled programming...
Completely agree !!!!!! Felt it was so important to include that at the end of the video because not only is it gross - but it could be so damaging to the poor victims of these people :(
@@Ellbat Oh thank goodness... I thought I was coming across overly mean. I'm quite dismissive of stuff like this, my entire adult life's been centred on science and physics. I don't want to be too mean, but I genuinely think the world is getting less superstitious as time goes by and I think that is leading to a more accepting and progressive society.
Am I in a alternative reality to be speaking with my guides? I guess that's just my reality :/ Even when good tarot readers tells accurate information about them. But also, I only listen to good readers that mostly uses their intuition, expierence and psychology. And fyi readers can only tell you things you already know or feel. Nothing against you guys, that's just my truth in my reality
Also, I hoped it would be in-dept reading. But what I heard was kinda dissapointing, because anyone could make these thing up and pretend that they are doing something for you idk idk
Binge watched your second channel ✅✅ Also besides the one child and long-term partner, they all saw a pivotal point in your career, indicating a big shift either to give up or charge forward. Two of them mentioned potential health declines as well, which, tbh with the chronic fatigue along with your past struggles with eating disorders may be something to look into along the lines of musculoskeletal health. Not to scare you or be a downer or anything, but if you do happen to have a grain of salt tarot interpretation, it could be a good chance to avoid those inconveniences that would maybe pop up as you get older. Your channel always makes my day and I'm happy to see you trying out new things with an open mind and a practical salt grain to give it levity. Thank you for creating ✨ PS if you're holding friend auditions in October, Discord!
I think the third guy was suggesting you should come and take baking classes with me in October, which will then lead to a new direction for your channel as a baking goddess in 2023. 👌🏼😂
Honestly would love a follow-up video in a few years or something, especially because the last reading mentioned this October and next year as important dates, so that could be interesting. For tarot readings and myself, I've only gotten them from my partner who does them, but they've always been mostly accurate and helped calm me down, see things more clearly, that sort of thing. I do think it mainly serves as advice and food for thought, maybe opening up possibilieties you hadn't thought of before (of course, this depends on the type of reading/question/etc). There's also just some readings made for fun that are less serious and just provide some entertainment if you're with friends or something. If you're interested, you could always seek out some specific spreads (there's loads everywhere on the internet, i think tumblr might be a good source) and see how those differ from tarot reader to tarot reader. Really liked this video overall!
I don’t use traditional tarot decks but I do enjoy reflecting on the insight and emotions that come up when I do oracle card readings. I am no longer able to work (due to severe illness) but when I did I did oracle card readings professionally and for friends and family. And I like that each deck is so unique in its artwork and messaging. It’s has allowed me to think about and process a lot of things. I’m undiagnosed ADHD (all the symptoms), so when I just meditate or journal, I get super anxious and can’t relax into my thoughts and emotions easily. With the cards, it’s just like reading a story, and I can focus on the image and the words and allow myself to react to those authentically and explore what is coming up.
I do oracle card readings for a good friend and I found that for them it helped them guide their mind. I just liked the artwork on the box and when I opened it up it turned out that it was a goddess set and the artwork was the goddess who bears my name and my friend was convinced it was a sign. I just really like seeing women who look like me and this goddess is traditionally drawn to look like me.
Tarot Reader here, I was surprise when you got the Emperor for health and it was read as a bad thing. To me, I'd take that as a good thing and that you had super good health. Like you'd be at your peak health wise.
Thanks for the discount code! Been wanting to try Hello fresh for ages but it's usually a bit out of my price range but the discount makes it a great deal!
Agh, I totally agree with what u said at the end that u should always be discerning with readings but as a psychic, medium and reader myself, I do wish u could have worked with someone who strengthened your faith and trust in the messages received a little more. When I'm reading for clients, rather than just talking about their future which they won't know is true or not till later, I always tell them things I see about them and their lives currently or I tell them about the relatives I'm connecting to first so they know I'm legit and not just making up things on the spot. Not only does this give me confirmation and confidence that I'm reading correctly but it will also allow my clients to know they aren't being scammed and that they can trust me and what I relay to them. I think this is super important.
In the readers defence - they definitely did do this! I just wanted to focus on the future aspect. Angela had a really lovely aura and I really do believe that some people have a gift - it’s just more that the future side of it is not set, so it’s not worth being solid on! So lovely to know you reassure your clients!! ❤️
@@Ellbat ahhh okay, got it! Would've been nice to see some parts where we could actually see whether they were being accurate or not but I appreciate if u wanted to protect your privacy in those parts too. Yh so true, there are infinite futures we can tap into, anything we r told r just suggestions and our beliefs and actions play a huge part in what actually plays out, thanks for clarifying 💕
They tell us what we wanna hear and RUclips since has our data and tend to know our situations in life by how what we choose to share,they use those videos close to your situation to make you think they are accurate 😂😂.
The crossing of the arms thing. Can mean not being open to change and new ideas. Also deflecting and self protection a trust thing. Not letting things in.
I have found tarot is best communicated and understood in the language most comfortable for the reader. I think for at least the 2nd the two online sessions (and maybe the first) would have been clearer, more personal and overall better in what I'm guessing is Spanish - maybe Portuguese? But obviously not if you are not fluent as well. Also - solid readings aren't that far out in time. When I provide a reading I make it clear the reading is good for a week to two weeks tops so think REAL LIFE - not open ended 'how's my future going to look.' Tarot is already pretty nebulous so vague questions just end up with 'word salad' readings. Thank you for doing this video Ellbat!💖 Happy to do a reading for you anytime! ✨
I found your video on 30th of September. I think it is great that you investigated 3 tarot readers. It is so important to research everything. Question everything let us learn and grow together. Good work.
Is it the one where each card has a value assigned and you have to collect a bunch and make them add up to 12? We play that in Spain too, call it "la escoba". Fun to know I could play that in Italy too hahah.
@@mac8697 the rules are different in italy, or at least in my region, but it's probably the same card deck, i know it's also played a lot in turkey and egypt too, i don't remember where it exactly originated tho (i think it's italy but i'm not sure)
I'm no expert, I just use an app sometimes (Labyrinth), but because people have common paths and pursuits, there's actually readings and layouts that focus on each, career, love, family. And more specific as well.
way before i was born my dad got card read or something, he was allowed to choose 6 or 12 cards i think, and well there was a certain amount of bad or good cards he could get, he without knowing chose all the devil and evil ones, and the man later quit his job
No such thing to have only evil cards as there are none. There are negative and positive positions to each carb based on the cards next to them and the overall energy they give off to the reader. Your father was unfortunately duped, sorry.
Holds my fingers to my forehead: "wait, I see a Frenchman wearing a ring in your future; I think his name might be something like Jean...no, it rhymes with Jean...ah! Macron...you will have an affair with Emanuelle Macron!" Très bien 🤭
3) The look on your face when you are trying to understand the last gentleman - was wickedly funny. I believe he was telling you "try not to block yourself" (crossing arms). He is encouraging you to "pursue new options" and "put yourself out there". In my yoga class, the instructor tells us to "lift your heart" - I tell myself I am open to all possibilities - so maybe it's something like that? 2) The intuitive reader was really interesting. I think you were looking at the reading as it being a bit more fun/funny than she was. Were you nervous? You made jokes out of a lot of what she had to say. 1) I personally think that the culture your reader grew up in - will influence the reading. She seemed to focus more on your health and trying to encourage you to pursue healthy habits. I have read Tarot before and before any reading, I pray to my God (I don't assume we have the same God) to work through me to tell you what you need to know. The reading is ONLY intended to highlight different paths that you might be aware of (or not) but these paths are ones that you haven't taken yet or investigated. (As Damian says - it's intended as advice.) Picture you and your BFF walking down a path in the forest - s/he might point out another branch off the path. You don't have to take it - just be aware it's there and you might learn something else if you do go down that road.
!! I wish I had known this video was being made! I've been a tarot reader for 12 years or so, but my specialty is helping teach writers how to use tarot themselves to understand archetypes and story as a vital human art. I do regular readings like these for people, too, but more rarely and usually in exchange for the querent donating their time or resources/money to a charity of their choice.
I am an intuitive tarot reader and can often read energy without the cards but even so the tarot still blows my mind and amazes me. We do get a lot of repetitive story lines but i always ask for some specific message of inspiration or growth to come through that will help each recipient. Tarot should really just confirm what you already know which in itself is extremely helpful. Thank you for this fun video:)
For the fun of it I had readings three times by tarot readings. They all said, I was going to get married and have four children. But unpaid Native Americans one from the USA, and one from Mexico just came up to me and said things more accurate. They both said I was going to be forced to change my career, and I was not having children. They both said I was going to be some kind of childcare/teacher. This is what ended up happening. (unpaid)
Tarot reader here. I like the in-person reading because it's my favorite way to read and it seemed more in-depth. The online ones seemed generic. Tip for finding legit readers: Trust your instincts. Pay attention to yourself when you're told things. If a clear person or situation comes up when they mention something, without you even having to think about it, you're on the right track. Also, in my experience, you can't address the future without addressing now. Now is how you'll end up where you do. Any legit reader will point out the things now you need to address to get the best future. It will not always be positive but it shouldn't make you afraid at all.
What a fun video! I read Tarot and to me it is like a Rorschach test. It shows you visually what is swarming around in your consciousness so you can easily decipher the messages. I always tell clients that this is what you are creating. If you don't like it you have the power to change it. You are in control. I really felt Angela was giving an accurate reading. The first person was OK but the third person was so vague and wordy it really as someone getting a reading from him, I wouldn't remember much. He wasn't clear and concise, and he rambled on and on. I would never go to him. What I want as a client if I go to another reader is clarity and this guy was just too confusing. I never ask the name of the person before I do a reading and I don't want them to tell me anything until after we have done the basic spread. Then I may ask questions to make sure I am on the right track. Many times, I hear words or phrases and that is usually more accurate for me than even the cards meanings. I love when people come in depressed and leave smiling and happy. I try to focus on the positive and how they can change their lives. I don't predict death and I do not feel qualified to discuss health issues. I prefer career, love, travel, where to move, etc. The only time I did health I could see this man was in a miserable marriage and I told him if he left his health would improve but that was up to him. You cannot live in an unhappy marriage without it affecting your health. People have free will and they may be paying back karma or there may be a reason they are treading water or unhappy. I can advise but it is up to the individual to change or stay static. Warning: I have had friends who have gone to fake readers. If they say, "for $50.00 I will burn a candle for you to burn away your family curse" or " You have a curse", etc. please run like hell! These are scammers! A true reader will NEVER say things like that to you!!
I'm rather sceptical to tarot cards as a spiritual thing but I think that reading them helps to understand ourselves. When you try to understand what part of your life is related to the meaning of the card you yourself see your future and what you want more clearly.
When I listened the last messages. It was very general...like I feel this type of message you could just tell to anyone. And I really watch good tarot readers on youtube and have my decks at home also. And about the child thing... Its really up to a couple how many they would prefer and then see how it happens naturally..How life has changed to that moment when babies are gonna come. I don't believe it is set in stone even if some people say its gonna be just one.
when I was 25, I saw this clairvoyant lady - on the advice of my manager. I was intrigued by 'future-telling'. This clairvoyant lady told me that "all my stars would align" for me when I turned 32. I'd be attached (not married) to a "very pretty" woman with dark hair. The 2nd time I saw her she claimed I would be married now. But I would never have any children. Well...I'm 49 now...NONE of that has come to pass. I'm doing well, but I have Asperger's, which can be rather non-ideal for relationships...but, yeah, I have never met this "pretty girl".
Kshdjshs the crossing arms saying, hes only telling you to not just stand there and wait for it to happen, that you have to consciously do this things.
I had an intuitive reader read my tea leaves and I did it just for entertainment. The reader lady was so chill and she was very zened out (not in like the creepy guru way but like very grandma-y). She kept talking about turtles, lakes and wolves/wolf dogs (tamed wolves). I ended up finding out a lot about my ancestry that year (had zero idea I was going to do so at the time) and there's a painting of one of my ancestors with an all black wolf dog in a canoe. The turtle and the lake were also directly related but I don't want to dox myself. Also fun fact I named my aussiedoodle Wolfman as I like old horror films and his markings make him look like a Wolfhound.
I do tarot intuitively too and can connect to other peoples energies and their spirit guides too but sometimes it can drain me and I find it scary when I predict or people I read for tell me what I told them happened.
As a hypnotist, reiki master, and practicing charlatan (I even invented my own "Nihilist Tarot" for fakes like me), I can tell you that we phonies rely on the types of general statements made, along with the fact that you will remember the things that confirm your biases and expectations more strongly, and the "misses" will typically get forgotten more quickly. Similarly, I can tell you that people who do readings in person frequently have very good skills at reading body language and changes in tonality and will incorporate your reactions into their readings. Some people do this intuitively and that fact can get interpreted as a "psychic gift" rather than more natural forms of perception and emotional intelligence. I still read for friends who insist I have a "gift" even though I have explicitly told them what I do and why it works. Even with silly card names like "dubious yes brigade" and 'The Anti-Duck," people take this surprisingly seriously. I've been thinking of doing this on RUclips, but I don't know. I think I'd be a total loss as a prophet.
Fun! The tarot itself is just a tool--there's no real power in it, but it can be used to set up a framework for real intuition. I know for a fact there are highly intuitive people who can "see"/sense things better than most and it's mindblowing when you come across someone genuinely connected like that, whether they use tarot or not. That being said, while most of the readings I've gotten were also for fun, I've noticed that once you're in that sort of zone everything becomes a sign or significant in some way. It's like a nudge to be more mindful and aware of ourselves/our surroundings. It can help us remember that every action is a choice that has consequences, large or small.
I am no tarot reader but I’ve been round the block and you’re doing wonderful with RUclips, I am not so sure the be all and end all is marriage and babies 🤷🏻♀️
sustainably sourced, ethically made, size inclusive, gender neutral GOOD SHIT: YDYB.shop
If you ever decide to do an Astrology reading video, I can give you a reading!
I would say that most Taro card readers and other forms of fortune tellers are scams. If they are for real, they would have correctly guessed the winning lottery numbers for the next draw and hit the jackpot and quit their jobs for good.
Hi @Ellbat-
I don't usually comment but I am curious! Being as how we both have the same last name, have you had to deal with people belching out the Batman theme song when they see you? 🤣 it gets annoying for sure, but since most people I talk to don't know how to spell it I just tell them it's like Batman w/an E in the middle. Anyways, love your videos!
Tarot has always been linked with the occult. It's a picture book disguised as a deck of cards. Even the oldest decks have symbols of Alchemy hermeticism and the tree of life(qabalah). Its really a meditation tool for western mystics or occultists. The new age community and some later occultists decided to strictly use it for fortune telling and profit. Watering down what it was really intended for.
@@ringo11994
Occult simply means "Knowledge, aka Hidden Knowledge"
Years of Unregulated Journalists, Folks Associated with various Religions, and Fear Promoters, have created dark ideas around the subject.
Very much like 24hr Cable News Produces around Political Subjects and Prejudices, based on Current Events but largely a created story.
For their Power, Profits, and Private Agendas.
Looking forward to the “10 years ago I got my tarot read, was it accurate?”
Oh you best believe I’ve already planned it 😭
I was thinking that I hope she updates us when she gets the "Running down the road screaming" gig!! LOL
@Ellbat any updates? Its October lol 😂
As someone who reads Tarot, in my experience it should be looked at as advice. As a way to reflect on what you've been through, accepting those emotions, and acknowledging where you want your life to go, what you're trying to get out of a career or if you want to stay in your job or network and grow. Tarot brings out our desires, fears, hopes, and provides reminders that we are in control of what happens moving forward
I agree--I also read Tarot and I do traditonal spreads that use the symbols and meanings of the cards to give feedback to the person to ponder and consider. It’s more like talking in counseling and coaching than anything else. There are common symbols and stories throughout all cultures in the world. Check out Joseph Campell and Carl Jung, who also refrence Tarot in their studies and writings about culture.
Oh, and the Death card doesn’t mean you’re going to die. It’s about change and reinvention. :-)
I've never heard it explained this way but I think that makes so much sense and brings such a beauty to the art of reading them and to the universe itself
100% that. A great tool for self-reflection, not a fortune-telling thingy ☺️
Also to add to this, there's such a thing as free will. Nothing is set in stone. :) (as also mentioned on the video)
YES THIS!!!! I feel like people don’t fully grasp what tarot actually does and how it can be used as a tool 😊
I'm a native Spanish speaker and when the guy was talking about crossing your arms it sounded logical to me, then you were all confused and that's when I realized, it is a translated saying and I understood because it is common in Spanish 😅.
In Spanish crossing your arms means staying still without doing anything to achieve your goals and waiting for the outcome to be what you oped for. It's a pretty common saying in Latin America. "No te quedes de brazos cruzados".
Pretty common in spanish in general. Very used in Spain
I lived on the continent for the majority of my life and it’s so funny when sayings are translated in a very literal way. Like “folding your arm” being more akin to sitting back and doing nothing. It reminded me of a Dutch football coach once saying on a BBC interview “that’s another biscuit”, which basically means “that’s a different kettle of fish”. Neither would really understand the other properly unless you’re reasonably well versed in both languages. Language is great.
oh, so like, 'don't just sit on your bum,' or 'get off your laurels'
pretty common in Brazil too "não fica de braços cruzados sem fazer nada"
@@gracegaskell8068 exactly! A way of saying “well do something about it then”
I have like 10 decks. I tend to pull a card and then ask myself questions related to the card. It's like a check-in with myself. And the art is often gorgeous.
yess !! im obsessed with the pretty tarot cards haha
@@Ellbat Yeah the 2nd person's cards were amazing. I wonder if their grandma gave them that deck?
I've always viewed things like tarot, astrology, etc., to mainly be tools for self-reflection rather than ways of predicting the future in any real way. It's more like "this is the kind of energy that exists for you right now" and then I can choose to use that or not, and I can use it in good ways or bad.
My best friend has been reading tarot for decades. He also reads auras. He refuses to read for children, wants to go into a reading with an absolutely clean slate, will give the client several decks from which to choose their reading (I think he’s got over 100 decks now). He is one of the most ethical people I’ve ever known.
I’ve had fake readings, what I call fishing expeditions (“I see an M”). I’ve also had a Lakota woman, after a visit to a sweat lodge, tell me what my recently deceased dad wanted me to know, stuff she would have absolutely no way of knowing (I even asked my friend, who is good friends with her, if he told her anything; man, he was so indignant!).
I’m skeptical, but the night before Halloween (Samhain), my dad, who had passed away several months before, clearly called my name, exactly the way he used to say it. My friend, the tarot reader, said the wall between this realm and the next is thinnest then.
Loved Angela, btw.
Wow, something about Angela really strikes me as genuine, I don't know what it was but as soon as she started talking I had the thought that she was the real deal and just kept being amazed by her presence
She really has an incredible presence. I felt instantly at ease with her, she’s an incredible lady !!
Same!!
I am also not a spiritual person, at all, but I love tarot. I look at it like a free therapist you can have whenever you want. Much like a therapist, the cards are just a way to look at your own thoughts and feelings in a new light. You give the cards meaning based on how you interpret them for yourself. They are a tool to help you think of new solutions to your problems and look at them from a new perspective. That's why they "work" for everyone because, much like a therapist often does, the cards just parrot your own thoughts back to you, but reframing them in a way you may not have considered before.
My first tarot reading was from a friend in college and she basically told me I wasn't happy in what I was pursuing (I was studying business at the time) and I should pursue something creatively fulfilling instead. I CRIED. Like full on sobbed. Because no one had ever told me that before and it was something I'd secretly wanted my entire life, but thought was impossible for me so I never let myself consider it. Fast forward ten years and I've hated every business job I ever had, quit them, and started my own creative career which I now love. Did the cards "predict" my future? Or did I just hear from the cards what I'd wanted to hear all along?
I loved you conclusion at the end. Youre totally right - marriage, kids, money. That's what most people work towards and therefore may get.
Also, been loving your video ideas! ❤️
I like tarot bc for me it’s more of a mindfulness thing. Thinking about what the cards are telling me makes me automatically reflect on different aspects of my life. And it’s also fun :)
I'm a intuitive Tarot reader. I see it as a way of helping the client focus on what is most important for them to know. I do short term, (3-6 months) and longer term, 6-12 months. I ask my client to not tell me anything about themselves until after the reading. I ask if the reading resonates with them and if they have any questions. I feel I am helping them and so far, 30 years, everyone has been happy.
can you do me one please.🙏
I feel like no. 3 said a lot while not saying anything really 😁
But No. 1 and 2 were actually very similar
I am a skeptic when it comes to this, but I would definitely do it for the entertainment value and (hopefully) confidence boost. Angela seemed like an absolute sweetheart ❤️
Don't do it, it can open doors spiritually.
@@jessysmith7953 I never really comment on RUclips but honestly from doing tarot and learning a lot about it for almost 4 years, I learned that you don’t necessarily need to be spiritual to use them. You can kinda just see them as a tool, or just a fun hobby you don’t need to trust all that much. But it’s also cool that they’re also used in a lot of different religions like Christianity, even though some christians look down on it but I’m not sure why. I know that personal experiences can seem less credible but the amount of times they’ve detected cheating and peoples true intention it’s so amazing to watch unfold in real life. That being said, I’m not sure why you’re not open to spirituality but there’s a lot of positive things that come from it, but its definitely not for everyone
Sorry if that was too much I’m just very passionate about this 😃
@@pooppeeeppopp7705 Obviously you enjoy it, and that's good for you. But I used to be highly into spirituality and I understood that it is a lot of deception, and that most of the time you're mainly interacting with demons. You might think I'm crazy but I'm just raising awareness to it. It is witchcraft.
@@jessysmith7953 oh no i completely understand what you mean, its just i think its depends on what you consume and how you learn teachings. theyres definitely categories of right and wrong and unsmart and smart. especially people coming from tiktok, like the spell recipes and deity worship thats pushed. most of the time the person isnt ready or doesn’t understand the seriousness and i think you can get negative energies attached to you. even then i think a portion of spirituality doesnt involve themselves in spirits other then their own, but i cant speak for ur experience
I’m a tarot reader. I don’t personally read for people as “telling the future”. I look at it as more of a “check in” in various aspects of life with the other person. And that’s how I read for myself as well. It’s honestly more of a taking of an emotional temperature? It’s hard to explain. For me, I don’t feel comfortable telling people super specific events like “you’re gonna have a baby” or “you’re gonna die at this age”. I just don’t see that when I read. It’s not to say no one else does…but for me it’s not the kind of thing I do. It’s more or less some loosely spiritual guidance and a kind of “weather forecast “ of a persons experience at that moment. It’s not as satisfying for folks looking for specific answers, but like….you should be making those decisions on your own anyway. It’s like going to a therapist…they never tell you what to do, but they lead you to decide for yourself in an informed and healthy way. And I’d like to think tarot can assist in a similar way
I think there's also some component of desperation and hope to a tarot reading. For many, when they decide to seek tarot (or similar services) they are lacking all hope from their usual systems of support (ex. Family, friends, work, medical providers, etc.). For the tarot reader, it's kind of crucial that no matter what the reading says that they frame it through hope and forward movement. And even though I know this and I'm skeptical, my last year in my doctoral program has me considering seeing out a tarot reader to give me something to hold onto.
Well put
Jesus is the best hope to hold onto, I pray you find Him 🙌🏻💙
As a tarot reader it can be used for many things not just a last ditch effort to find hope. My partner and I regularly use it for journaling, reflection, meditation, manifestation, advice, timing, and much more.
Yes this is true. I'm quite skeptical about everything. But I've been watching tarot readings this past year due to extreme loneliness, death, breakup, under-confidence, etc. I've been living in a foreign country alone and don't have many friends. It does give me comfort in a weird way.
sorry for the late response! But this is actually something angela mentioned, that as a tarot reader - you have a responsibility to ensure the wellbeing of your clients, and safeguard them from things you say that may horrendously impact them. She says she always tries to revive hope and happiness in the people she reads for as nothing is set in stone and people can always find a way to a better path. It was really interesting to hear about. I hope your doctoral program is going well and you feel more able to get through!! we are all cheering you on!
"Well I've got some hip problems-"
"You shouldn't have told me that"
very neat! Angela was Def my fav of the 3. If you'e never had it done before and you like new experiences you should try getting your astrological Natal Chart read. There are lots of people who do it but if you wanna look to get an idea
there is a reputable reader based in the UK here on RUclips, "written in the stars by Rux".
Interesting that the audio only reader said “you have a lot of ideas on the run as far as your professional life,” and the in person reader said that bit about you running and screaming down the road with the dollar signs over it
I agree!
I got my fortune told; it was really fun because it was specific. Like, I definitely did not meet my soul mate at a holiday party when I was 27 who was Hispanic or Italian. But I still got great help from it. She told me I would work with kids and dogs, so I decided to try pursuing those types of jobs and found I actually like working with kids. She said we would get a small black dog, and now we do, and I love him so much! Even as self-fulfilling prophecies, I think having your future read can improve your life (assuming you only ask about positive things).
Who’s your reading I’m looking for someone accurate
@haileycarroll2276 in *my* experience, there are not really "accurate" readers. A lot of times they are either self fulfilling or not meant to take literal.
But I also have prophetic dreams of sorts about my own life. That are now 4/4 in terms of coming true
I think the second one was the best one, actually felt genuine! Regardless very interesting concept for a video, loved it.
I loved seeing angela work in person (also cool af that she matches her deck of cards)
I really appreciate your objectivity throughout the video. The best thing about tarot is that it has so many uses. You can use it for self-reflection, predictions, writer's block, decision making, coming up with strategies to handle situations, and the list goes on. I enjoy using tarot as inspiration for making art and have done some videos on it. So even if you don't believe in it as a means of 'fortune telling', I bet there are others ways you can incorporate it into your life. Thanks so much for posting this fun video!
Your videos are so funny, honest and entertaining. Love your channel(s)
I had my reading done by Angela. Definitely recommend
I look at each tarot card not as a means of telling the future but instead as multiple possible lessons. Whichever one resonates with me is the advice/meaning applicable to me at that time.
That was a lot of fun. I had my cards read decades ago and thinking back on it they were quite right in the long term. At the time I thought she was way off, and some of the things she got right were off the charts. I was a city boy, and she said I would spend parts of a few years working on the North Atlantic ocean. (I'd only been in a boat twice before at that time) She said I'd live in the USA for seven years and that I'd own a horse farm. All three came true.
I need her contact ASAP 🙏🏻😅
I see it as a lot like the way I view horoscopes - no predictive power in itself, but generally good advice that gives the person an excuse to reflect. From that perspective, it doesn't much matter if it's "true" or not as long as the reader is operating in good faith and not manipulating or exploiting someone's trust.
I wouldn't do it myself but as long as people don't push it on me I am glad it makes them happy.
You should make a follow up to this video in 6 months - a year to see if how much of this was accurate!
I love doing tarot readings for people, although my cards aren't the best at future readings. More so this is what's happening and here's how to fix it lol
That's how my cards work too. They don't predict the future but they can work as reflection tools.
@@sarahaubrey320 spicy psychology as I've heard some people put it lol
Lol my guides don't like me to know too much about my future too 😂 I think it's better that way though so I can focus on the lessons I'm learning and my experiences in the present. If I knew all the answers, it would defeat the purpose basically
Honestly. MOST readings are vague for a reason. A basic "knowledge" would make you think about the meaning, and, as you can see in in this video, interpret things yourself. It's normally NOT the reader giving the information, but the questioner.
In witchcraft, all tools are just that: tools. They are used to focus on a question, they don't give answers. The person(s) using the tools decide on the answers.
As you said before: it's just a moment in time. Tomorrow, things can be completely different. Whenever you get information, you ALWAYS act on it.
Often, readers who interact with you, and try to get you to provide information are seen as LESS genuine. Unfortunately, the biggest fakes do try to get you to say things so they can come across as more believable, but the best readers also use this information to give you REAL answers. The cards themselves don't tell you sh**, it's how you use them that matters ;)
(Yes, I use tarot cards sometimes. Along with sooooo many other tools.)
If you don't understand exactly what's meant, the information you get likely holds less value. That's not to say the reader didn't do their job correctly, it's just that you need to understand information for it to hold any value for you XD
As for the friend in October part: I'd LOVE to meet you in person! If you happen to be in the Netherlands in that month, send me a message ;)
As far as witchcraft is concerned; "the universe" doesn't care about gender. Asking what the gender of your future child will be wouldn't get any consistent results because of that XD
I used to be quite skeptical about tarot until my friend took up reading. She always reads me very accurately even when I haven't spoken to her in a while and I became much more open because of her.
I would say that it is usually accurate because every card means something else to someone else. It's kinda more of a self-mindedness thing then fortune telling. Guidance of sort. How you interpret the cards is in the eye of the beholder. Advice that you can take or not. Something to look out for. I think that's what is beautiful about it.
I love this kind of thing tbh, different spiritual practices / beliefs r always so interesting to learn about
I was skeptical of tarot reads at first, but a friend of mine did me some readings and they were really accurate, which shocked me a little.
I do believe that being in person with the tarot reader is a huge deal, as they can feel some energies (from what my friend told me)
I still take the readings with a grain of salt, but it's really interesting to see what turns out to be true or not
Oh my god you’re so lucky. I’m kind of skeptical about Tara as well, but I’m also terrified because my mom had a terror Reed once, and they literally told her that someone in their family would die in a month later her cousin died.
That last reader was Spanish...crossing your arms is an expression we say which means "do nothing". For example: "She saw me struggling with all the grocery bags and she just stood there with her arms crossed". It's not a literal description, just a saying :)
Actually i'm pretty sure fortune telling begun in ancient Greece and to be more speciffic in Delphi ! That's what i know at least from history..
Fortune telling maybe! But this is specifically the history of the tarot in Europe :D
Fortune telling maybe! But this is specifically the history of the tarot in Europe :D
It’s always entertaining watching your channel.
I got nothing against people who tell fortunes using cards and cultural props from cultures they don't bother to learn about or respect.
I got nothing against people who claim to know futures based on ancient miscalculations of the movements of stellar bodies.
I have massive problems with people who claim to "commune with spirits of the departed" and other such shysters.
I *despise* psychics and mediums who prey on people's grief and manipulate memories of people's departed loved ones for their own financial gain.
Just thought I'd have a little rant.
And now back to our regularly scheduled programming...
Completely agree !!!!!! Felt it was so important to include that at the end of the video because not only is it gross - but it could be so damaging to the poor victims of these people :(
@@Ellbat
Oh thank goodness... I thought I was coming across overly mean.
I'm quite dismissive of stuff like this, my entire adult life's been centred on science and physics. I don't want to be too mean, but I genuinely think the world is getting less superstitious as time goes by and I think that is leading to a more accepting and progressive society.
Am I in a alternative reality to be speaking with my guides? I guess that's just my reality :/ Even when good tarot readers tells accurate information about them. But also, I only listen to good readers that mostly uses their intuition, expierence and psychology. And fyi readers can only tell you things you already know or feel. Nothing against you guys, that's just my truth in my reality
Also, I hoped it would be in-dept reading. But what I heard was kinda dissapointing, because anyone could make these thing up and pretend that they are doing something for you idk idk
Ok?
This was really intresting tbh i dont believe in the readings but angela was so nice
Off topic but I really like ur videos ideas like they’re always entertaining and that’s rare to be found
Personally choosing cards is the intuition working. Intuition is the emotions at play and if you are creative it’s a dream!
Binge watched your second channel ✅✅ Also besides the one child and long-term partner, they all saw a pivotal point in your career, indicating a big shift either to give up or charge forward. Two of them mentioned potential health declines as well, which, tbh with the chronic fatigue along with your past struggles with eating disorders may be something to look into along the lines of musculoskeletal health. Not to scare you or be a downer or anything, but if you do happen to have a grain of salt tarot interpretation, it could be a good chance to avoid those inconveniences that would maybe pop up as you get older. Your channel always makes my day and I'm happy to see you trying out new things with an open mind and a practical salt grain to give it levity. Thank you for creating ✨ PS if you're holding friend auditions in October, Discord!
I think the third guy was suggesting you should come and take baking classes with me in October, which will then lead to a new direction for your channel as a baking goddess in 2023. 👌🏼😂
your future is determined by your choices that you act on today. it cannot be any other way.
Honestly would love a follow-up video in a few years or something, especially because the last reading mentioned this October and next year as important dates, so that could be interesting.
For tarot readings and myself, I've only gotten them from my partner who does them, but they've always been mostly accurate and helped calm me down, see things more clearly, that sort of thing. I do think it mainly serves as advice and food for thought, maybe opening up possibilieties you hadn't thought of before (of course, this depends on the type of reading/question/etc). There's also just some readings made for fun that are less serious and just provide some entertainment if you're with friends or something. If you're interested, you could always seek out some specific spreads (there's loads everywhere on the internet, i think tumblr might be a good source) and see how those differ from tarot reader to tarot reader.
Really liked this video overall!
I don’t use traditional tarot decks but I do enjoy reflecting on the insight and emotions that come up when I do oracle card readings. I am no longer able to work (due to severe illness) but when I did I did oracle card readings professionally and for friends and family. And I like that each deck is so unique in its artwork and messaging.
It’s has allowed me to think about and process a lot of things. I’m undiagnosed ADHD (all the symptoms), so when I just meditate or journal, I get super anxious and can’t relax into my thoughts and emotions easily. With the cards, it’s just like reading a story, and I can focus on the image and the words and allow myself to react to those authentically and explore what is coming up.
I do oracle card readings for a good friend and I found that for them it helped them guide their mind. I just liked the artwork on the box and when I opened it up it turned out that it was a goddess set and the artwork was the goddess who bears my name and my friend was convinced it was a sign. I just really like seeing women who look like me and this goddess is traditionally drawn to look like me.
Tarot Reader here, I was surprise when you got the Emperor for health and it was read as a bad thing. To me, I'd take that as a good thing and that you had super good health. Like you'd be at your peak health wise.
when the one said she sees a baby girl in your future i did not take that to mean just one, just that she sees at least one girl.
Thank you so much Ellbat, tarot cards are super fun! 🙆♀️
Thanks for the discount code! Been wanting to try Hello fresh for ages but it's usually a bit out of my price range but the discount makes it a great deal!
Okayyy supporting tarot readers! I can’t believe I haven’t seen this video sooner
Fun fact you can do tarot (well similar) with a "regular" deck of cards
One of the paintings she used in the video even showed that! An old woman devining with poker cards!
Agh, I totally agree with what u said at the end that u should always be discerning with readings but as a psychic, medium and reader myself, I do wish u could have worked with someone who strengthened your faith and trust in the messages received a little more. When I'm reading for clients, rather than just talking about their future which they won't know is true or not till later, I always tell them things I see about them and their lives currently or I tell them about the relatives I'm connecting to first so they know I'm legit and not just making up things on the spot. Not only does this give me confirmation and confidence that I'm reading correctly but it will also allow my clients to know they aren't being scammed and that they can trust me and what I relay to them. I think this is super important.
In the readers defence - they definitely did do this! I just wanted to focus on the future aspect. Angela had a really lovely aura and I really do believe that some people have a gift - it’s just more that the future side of it is not set, so it’s not worth being solid on!
So lovely to know you reassure your clients!! ❤️
@@Ellbat ahhh okay, got it! Would've been nice to see some parts where we could actually see whether they were being accurate or not but I appreciate if u wanted to protect your privacy in those parts too.
Yh so true, there are infinite futures we can tap into, anything we r told r just suggestions and our beliefs and actions play a huge part in what actually plays out, thanks for clarifying 💕
They tell us what we wanna hear and RUclips since has our data and tend to know our situations in life by how what we choose to share,they use those videos close to your situation to make you think they are accurate 😂😂.
I find tarot fun and interesting. I think its a case of enjoying it too, but don't rule or change plans purely on some reading you get
will put off the anxiety attack until after the ellbat content
i thoroughly enjoyed this video!!!
I love these comparing different types of services videos!
The crossing of the arms thing. Can mean not being open to change and new ideas. Also deflecting and self protection a trust thing. Not letting things in.
I would love to cross paths with you in October, you seem like a delight to hang out with and work with!
I have found tarot is best communicated and understood in the language most comfortable for the reader. I think for at least the 2nd the two online sessions (and maybe the first) would have been clearer, more personal and overall better in what I'm guessing is Spanish - maybe Portuguese? But obviously not if you are not fluent as well. Also - solid readings aren't that far out in time. When I provide a reading I make it clear the reading is good for a week to two weeks tops so think REAL LIFE - not open ended 'how's my future going to look.' Tarot is already pretty nebulous so vague questions just end up with 'word salad' readings. Thank you for doing this video Ellbat!💖 Happy to do a reading for you anytime! ✨
I've found that tarot readings don't follow a specific timeline. It could be two weeks or two years. I've seen both.
I found your video on 30th of September. I think it is great that you investigated 3 tarot readers. It is so important to research everything. Question everything let us learn and grow together. Good work.
Going out as this popped up on notifications, can't wait to watch it later. (Pin badge and stickers, arrived today :)- Thank you)
Give us an update in 5 years! 😁
the italian card game that detached itself from the tarot that we know nowadays is now called la scopa ! it's really fun to play
Is it the one where each card has a value assigned and you have to collect a bunch and make them add up to 12? We play that in Spain too, call it "la escoba". Fun to know I could play that in Italy too hahah.
@@mac8697 the rules are different in italy, or at least in my region, but it's probably the same card deck, i know it's also played a lot in turkey and egypt too, i don't remember where it exactly originated tho (i think it's italy but i'm not sure)
I'm no expert, I just use an app sometimes (Labyrinth), but because people have common paths and pursuits, there's actually readings and layouts that focus on each, career, love, family. And more specific as well.
way before i was born my dad got card read or something, he was allowed to choose 6 or 12 cards i think, and well there was a certain amount of bad or good cards he could get, he without knowing chose all the devil and evil ones, and the man later quit his job
No such thing to have only evil cards as there are none. There are negative and positive positions to each carb based on the cards next to them and the overall energy they give off to the reader. Your father was unfortunately duped, sorry.
1 million isn't even far off for you. You definitely can reach that number, keep going.
Definitely thought the reflection of you in the background was like your mom or somebody for WAY too long
Spirituality is so so interesting, nice video!
Holds my fingers to my forehead: "wait, I see a Frenchman wearing a ring in your future; I think his name might be something like Jean...no, it rhymes with Jean...ah! Macron...you will have an affair with Emanuelle Macron!" Très bien 🤭
I always ask a question and then pull out a card that gives the exact advice i need its so weird
3) The look on your face when you are trying to understand the last gentleman - was wickedly funny. I believe he was telling you "try not to block yourself" (crossing arms). He is encouraging you to "pursue new options" and "put yourself out there". In my yoga class, the instructor tells us to "lift your heart" - I tell myself I am open to all possibilities - so maybe it's something like that?
2) The intuitive reader was really interesting. I think you were looking at the reading as it being a bit more fun/funny than she was. Were you nervous? You made jokes out of a lot of what she had to say.
1) I personally think that the culture your reader grew up in - will influence the reading. She seemed to focus more on your health and trying to encourage you to pursue healthy habits.
I have read Tarot before and before any reading, I pray to my God (I don't assume we have the same God) to work through me to tell you what you need to know. The reading is ONLY intended to highlight different paths that you might be aware of (or not) but these paths are ones that you haven't taken yet or investigated. (As Damian says - it's intended as advice.) Picture you and your BFF walking down a path in the forest - s/he might point out another branch off the path. You don't have to take it - just be aware it's there and you might learn something else if you do go down that road.
You make such interesting videos! You're really underrated imo
!! I wish I had known this video was being made! I've been a tarot reader for 12 years or so, but my specialty is helping teach writers how to use tarot themselves to understand archetypes and story as a vital human art. I do regular readings like these for people, too, but more rarely and usually in exchange for the querent donating their time or resources/money to a charity of their choice.
I am an intuitive tarot reader and can often read energy without the cards but even so the tarot still blows my mind and amazes me. We do get a lot of repetitive story lines but i always ask for some specific message of inspiration or growth to come through that will help each recipient. Tarot should really just confirm what you already know which in itself is extremely helpful. Thank you for this fun video:)
For the fun of it I had readings three times by tarot readings. They all said, I was going to get married and have four children. But unpaid Native Americans one from the USA, and one from Mexico just came up to me and said things more accurate. They both said I was going to be forced to change my career, and I was not having children. They both said I was going to be some kind of childcare/teacher. This is what ended up happening. (unpaid)
Hurray! New video!😍
Tarot reader here. I like the in-person reading because it's my favorite way to read and it seemed more in-depth. The online ones seemed generic.
Tip for finding legit readers: Trust your instincts. Pay attention to yourself when you're told things.
If a clear person or situation comes up when they mention something, without you even having to think about it, you're on the right track.
Also, in my experience, you can't address the future without addressing now. Now is how you'll end up where you do.
Any legit reader will point out the things now you need to address to get the best future. It will not always be positive but it shouldn't make you afraid at all.
What a fun video! I read Tarot and to me it is like a Rorschach test. It shows you visually what is swarming around in your consciousness so you can easily decipher the messages. I always tell clients that this is what you are creating. If you don't like it you have the power to change it. You are in control. I really felt Angela was giving an accurate reading. The first person was OK but the third person was so vague and wordy it really as someone getting a reading from him, I wouldn't remember much. He wasn't clear and concise, and he rambled on and on. I would never go to him. What I want as a client if I go to another reader is clarity and this guy was just too confusing. I never ask the name of the person before I do a reading and I don't want them to tell me anything until after we have done the basic spread. Then I may ask questions to make sure I am on the right track. Many times, I hear words or phrases and that is usually more accurate for me than even the cards meanings. I love when people come in depressed and leave smiling and happy. I try to focus on the positive and how they can change their lives. I don't predict death and I do not feel qualified to discuss health issues. I prefer career, love, travel, where to move, etc. The only time I did health I could see this man was in a miserable marriage and I told him if he left his health would improve but that was up to him. You cannot live in an unhappy marriage without it affecting your health. People have free will and they may be paying back karma or there may be a reason they are treading water or unhappy. I can advise but it is up to the individual to change or stay static. Warning: I have had friends who have gone to fake readers. If they say, "for $50.00 I will burn a candle for you to burn away your family curse" or " You have a curse", etc. please run like hell! These are scammers! A true reader will NEVER say things like that to you!!
One way would be buying your own deck and learning and searching by yourself!
"bad feet" cracked me up, this was such a fun video
I'm rather sceptical to tarot cards as a spiritual thing but I think that reading them helps to understand ourselves. When you try to understand what part of your life is related to the meaning of the card you yourself see your future and what you want more clearly.
When I listened the last messages. It was very general...like I feel this type of message you could just tell to anyone. And I really watch good tarot readers on youtube and have my decks at home also. And about the child thing... Its really up to a couple how many they would prefer and then see how it happens naturally..How life has changed to that moment when babies are gonna come. I don't believe it is set in stone even if some people say its gonna be just one.
I really liked this! I would love to see something like this again maybe tea leaf reading?
when I was 25, I saw this clairvoyant lady - on the advice of my manager. I was intrigued by 'future-telling'.
This clairvoyant lady told me that "all my stars would align" for me when I turned 32. I'd be attached (not married) to a "very pretty" woman with dark hair. The 2nd time I saw her she claimed I would be married now. But I would never have any children.
Well...I'm 49 now...NONE of that has come to pass. I'm doing well, but I have Asperger's, which can be rather non-ideal for relationships...but, yeah, I have never met this "pretty girl".
The last guy was reading from a magazine horoscope 😂 well that's how he sounded .. very generic
Really great video, wether you believe in it or not it was educational and entertaining
Kshdjshs the crossing arms saying, hes only telling you to not just stand there and wait for it to happen, that you have to consciously do this things.
“She sees IBS issues…” same babe, same 😂😅
0:47 not me looking at the bottom-right corner and only being able to think of "Za Warrudo"!!
I've completed my first week of school!
Congrats !!
I had an intuitive reader read my tea leaves and I did it just for entertainment. The reader lady was so chill and she was very zened out (not in like the creepy guru way but like very grandma-y). She kept talking about turtles, lakes and wolves/wolf dogs (tamed wolves). I ended up finding out a lot about my ancestry that year (had zero idea I was going to do so at the time) and there's a painting of one of my ancestors with an all black wolf dog in a canoe. The turtle and the lake were also directly related but I don't want to dox myself.
Also fun fact I named my aussiedoodle Wolfman as I like old horror films and his markings make him look like a Wolfhound.
I do tarot intuitively too and can connect to other peoples energies and their spirit guides too but sometimes it can drain me and I find it scary when I predict or people I read for tell me what I told them happened.
I would like to cross paths with you in October, but not a second before!
Angela was the only reading worth listening to.
As a hypnotist, reiki master, and practicing charlatan (I even invented my own "Nihilist Tarot" for fakes like me), I can tell you that we phonies rely on the types of general statements made, along with the fact that you will remember the things that confirm your biases and expectations more strongly, and the "misses" will typically get forgotten more quickly. Similarly, I can tell you that people who do readings in person frequently have very good skills at reading body language and changes in tonality and will incorporate your reactions into their readings. Some people do this intuitively and that fact can get interpreted as a "psychic gift" rather than more natural forms of perception and emotional intelligence. I still read for friends who insist I have a "gift" even though I have explicitly told them what I do and why it works. Even with silly card names like "dubious yes brigade" and 'The Anti-Duck," people take this surprisingly seriously. I've been thinking of doing this on RUclips, but I don't know. I think I'd be a total loss as a prophet.
I have to see this! I recently got The Alleyman Tarot, so I need to see yours!
Fun! The tarot itself is just a tool--there's no real power in it, but it can be used to set up a framework for real intuition. I know for a fact there are highly intuitive people who can "see"/sense things better than most and it's mindblowing when you come across someone genuinely connected like that, whether they use tarot or not.
That being said, while most of the readings I've gotten were also for fun, I've noticed that once you're in that sort of zone everything becomes a sign or significant in some way. It's like a nudge to be more mindful and aware of ourselves/our surroundings. It can help us remember that every action is a choice that has consequences, large or small.
I had a funny feeling that you were gonna do a video about this !
I am no tarot reader but I’ve been round the block and you’re doing wonderful with RUclips, I am not so sure the be all and end all is marriage and babies 🤷🏻♀️
