    Episode 16 - Major Arcana Wrap up

    Archetypes, Patterns & Revisiting The Fool’s JourneyIn this episode of This Ain’t Fortune Telling, Clo is joined by Meaghan for a big-picture conversation about the Major Arcana, the Fool’s Journey, and the patterns we revisit throughout our lives. Rather than reviewing the cards one by one, this episode explores what the Major Arcana actually represent: archetypes, cycles, and the deeply human process of growth, awareness, disruption, and integration. Together, Clo and Meaghan break the Fool’s Journey into three phases: ✨ Learning the world ✨ Understanding the self ✨ Truth, disruption & integration They explore how we move through these phases repeatedly, not as a straight line, but as a spiral, revisiting lessons with deeper awareness each time. The conversation touches on identity, performance, accountability, emotional growth, self-trust, burnout, integration, and what it really means to “learn a lesson.” This episode is less about memorizing tarot and more about recognizing yourself inside the journey. 🔮 In This Episode, We ExploreWhy the Major Arcana are archetypes, not eventsThe Fool’s Journey as a spiral, not a straight lineThe three major phases of the journeyLearning identity, structure, and expectationsEmotional awareness, accountability, and self-trustTruth, disruption, healing, and integrationThe difference between knowledge and embodied wisdomWhy we revisit the same lessons throughout lifeHow reflection helps us recognize patterns and growth✨ The Three Phases of The Fool’s JourneyPhase 1 — Learning the WorldMagician → Chariot Identity, expectations, structure, belonging, and learning how to function in the collective. Phase 2 — Understanding the SelfStrength → Temperance Inner work, emotional awareness, accountability, perspective shifts, and integration. Phase 3 — Truth, Disruption & IntegrationDevil → World Truth rising, illusions breaking, healing, awakening, and embodied wisdom. 💬 Memorable Lines“You never finish the Fool’s Journey.” “Growth isn’t linear. it’s a spiral.” “Sometimes the lesson returning means you’re ready to go deeper.” “The World isn’t an ending. It’s integration.” “You can be in multiple phases of the journey at the same time.” 🔮 Reflection QuestionsWhere am I right now: learning, reflecting, or transforming?Am I in a breakthrough moment or an integration phase?What lesson keeps revisiting me — and what deeper layer might be asking for attention?Am I allowing this phase of my journey to be enough?💜 ConnectClo — Host of This Ain’t Fortune Telling🌐 https://thisaintfortunetelling.com Meaghanhttps://www.somaticintimacycoaching.ca/

    Episode 15 — The Sun, Judgement & The World

    Clarity, Calling & What Happens After the Awakening In this episode of This Ain’t Fortune Telling, Clo is joined by Meaghan to explore the final stretch of the Major Arcana through three powerful archetypes: The Sun, Judgement, and The World. Together, these cards tell a story about clarity, truth, and what happens when we finally stop negotiating with ourselves. The conversation begins with The Sun — the card of visibility, openness, and seeing things clearly for what they are. But the deeper work of this episode lives inside Judgement and The World. Judgement is explored not as punishment or criticism, but as a call to truth. The moment where something inside you wakes up and says: you already know. It’s the archetype of awakening, accountability, and choosing whether or not to live in alignment with what you now understand. And then comes The World — not an ending, but integration. The moment where the lessons become lived experience, where a cycle completes, and where we step into a different version of ourselves. Through imagery, real-life reflection, and a live reading, Clo and Meaghan explore what it means to hear the call of your own life — and what changes once you do. As always, tarot here isn’t about predicting what’s coming — it’s about understanding what’s happening now so you can meet it consciously. 🔮 In This Episode, We ExploreThe Sun as clarity, openness, and visibilityJudgement as awakening, truth, and inner callingThe World as integration and completionThe difference between knowing something and living itWhy truth becomes uncomfortable once we can no longer ignore itThe emotional experience of stepping into a new version of yourselfCompletion as integration — not perfectionThe final arc of the Fool’s Journey✨ Key TakeawaysClarity often arrives before change doesJudgement is a call to truth, not punishmentAwakening usually begins internally before life changes externallyIgnoring what you know becomes harder over timeCompletion is not the same as “being done”The World represents integration and expansionGrowth happens when truth becomes actionYou don’t need certainty — you need honesty💬 Memorable Lines“Judgement is the call to become who you already know you are.” “You don’t need certainty. You need honesty.” “The World isn’t an ending — it’s integration.” 🔮 Reflection QuestionsWhat truth have I already heard… but haven’t fully lived yet?What part of me is ready to move forward?💜 ConnectClo — Host of This Ain’t Fortune Telling 🌐 https://thisaintfortunetelling.com Meaghanhttps://www.somaticintimacycoaching.ca/

    Episode 14 - The Star and The Moon

    🎙️ Episode 14 — The Star & The MoonHope, Intuition & Learning to Trust What You Can’t Fully See In this episode of This Ain’t Fortune Telling, Clo is joined by Meaghan to explore two cards that live in the same emotional landscape, even if they feel completely different. The Star and The Moon. One brings softness, openness, and quiet hope. The other brings uncertainty, emotion, and the feeling of not quite knowing what’s real yet. Together, these cards speak to a very human experience: moving forward without full clarity. Clo and Meaghan unpack how The Star represents the moment after things have fallen apart, where healing begins and we cautiously open again. While The Moon reflects the space where things are still unclear, where intuition matters more than logic, and where not everything is meant to be understood right away. This conversation moves beyond “positive vs negative” interpretations and into something more real, what it actually feels like to trust yourself when you don’t have all the answers. Through imagery, real-life reflection, and a live reading, this episode explores how hope and uncertainty often exist side by side, and how learning to navigate both is part of growth. As always, tarot here isn’t about predicting what’s coming, it’s about understanding what’s happening now so you can meet it with awareness. 🔮 In This Episode, We ExploreThe Star as healing, openness, and quiet hopeThe Moon as uncertainty, emotion, and intuitive navigationWhy these cards often show up together in real lifeThe difference between clarity and trustHow people protect themselves from vulnerability after being hurtWhat it means to move forward without full understandingThe role of intuition when logic can’t leadNavigating emotional uncertainty without rushing to answers✨ Key TakeawaysHope doesn’t always feel strong — sometimes it’s quiet and tentativeYou don’t need full clarity to move forwardThe Moon isn’t confusion to fix — it’s a space to navigateIntuition isn’t certainty — it’s guidanceVulnerability is part of healing, not a sign of weaknessGrowth often happens while things are still unclearTrust builds through experience, not immediate answers🔮 Reflection QuestionsWhere in my life am I being asked to stay open, even if it feels vulnerable?What might be asking for my trust — even if I don’t fully understand it yet?💜 ConnectClo — Host of This Ain’t Fortune Telling 🌐 https://thisaintfortunetelling.com Meaghan - Co-host extrordinare https://www.somaticintimacycoaching.ca/ If this episode resonated, share it with someone navigating uncertainty — and consider leaving a review so more listeners can find the show.

    Episode 13 - The Devil and The Tower

    Attachment, Truth & the Moment Everything Shifts In this episode of This Ain’t Fortune Telling, Clo is joined by Victoria to explore two of the most misunderstood,and often feared, cards in the tarot: The Devil and The Tower. These cards don’t predict disaster. They reveal truth. The Devil shows us where we feel stuck. In patterns, habits, relationships, or beliefs. Aand where we may be reinforcing that stuckness without realizing it. The Tower represents the moment those illusions can no longer hold, when clarity arrives and something shifts. Together, these cards tell a very human story: the slow awareness that something isn’t working… and the moment we can’t ignore it anymore. This conversation moves beyond fear-based interpretations and into something more useful, awareness. The kind that helps you recognize where you still have agency, where you’ve been avoiding what you already know, and how clarity, even when it feels disruptive, can create real change. Through imagery, real-life examples, and a live reading, Clo and Victoria explore the relationship between gradual knowing and sudden shifts and why the things that fall apart were often never sustainable to begin with. As always, tarot here isn’t about predicting what’s coming, it’s about understanding what’s happening now so you can meet it consciously. In This Episode, We ExploreThe Devil as attachment, patterns, and perceived limitationThe Tower as disruption, truth, and necessary changeWhy these cards are often feared (and misunderstood)The connection between avoidance and sudden shiftsWhere we still have agency, even when we feel stuckHow awareness creates the opportunity for changeKey TakeawaysThe Devil shows where we feel stuck — but often aren’tMany limitations are reinforced by belief, not realityThe Tower doesn’t destroy what’s solid — it reveals what isn’tAvoiding truth builds pressure over timeClarity can feel uncomfortable before it feels freeingYou have more agency than you think💬 Memorable Lines“The Devil doesn’t trap you — it shows you where you’re participating in the trap.” “The Tower doesn’t destroy what’s solid.” “The Tower often says what the Devil has been whispering all along.” 🔮 Reflection QuestionsWhat am I pretending not to know right now?Where do I feel stuck — and is that actually true?💜 ConnectClo — Host of This Ain’t Fortune Telling 🌐 https://thisaintfortunetelling.com Until next time — trust what’s showing up, and pull with intention.

    Episode 12 - Death and Temperance

    Episode 12 — Death & TemperanceEndings, Integration & the Balance That Follows In this episode of This Ain’t Fortune Telling, Clo is joined by Meaghan for a conversation about what happens after things fall apart, or more accurately, after they end. Following the movement of The Wheel of Fortune and Justice, this episode lands in the next phase of the cycle: Death and Temperance, the transition from ending to integration. Death is often misunderstood as loss or catastrophe, but in tarot, it’s something quieter and more honest. It’s the moment we stop resisting what is already over. The moment we accept that a chapter has completed. Even if part of us wishes it hadn’t. And right beside it, we find Temperance. Not as relief. Not as instant healing. But as the slow, steady process of rebuilding balance. Together, these cards speak to a deeply human experience: letting go of what cannot continue, and learning how to live in what comes next. Through imagery, real-life reflection, and a live reading, Clo and Meaghan explore how endings create space, how balance is rebuilt (not restored), and why transformation is often less dramatic, and more sacred, than we expect. As always, tarot here isn’t about predicting what’s coming — it’s about understanding what’s happening now so you can meet it with awareness. 🔮 In This Episode, We ExploreDeath as completion, not collapseWhy endings are neutral — even when they feel emotionalThe symbolism of Death in the Rider–Waite deckTemperance as integration, not instant healingRebuilding balance after a major life shiftThe connection between emotional endings and nervous system regulationWhy transformation requires both release and patienceHow identity shifts after letting something goThe relationship between grief, acceptance, and growth✨ Key TakeawaysDeath represents endings that are already complete — not ones we can avoidLetting go is often about acceptance, not actionTransformation begins when resistance endsTemperance is the process of rebuilding balance, not returning to the pastHealing is gradual, not immediateGrowth requires both release and integrationYou don’t become someone new instantly — you recalibrate over timeBalance is created, not restoredEndings make space for a different version of stabilityThe process of becoming is often quiet and slow🎧 Live Reading HighlightThis episode includes a live reading for a listener navigating how to build something lasting from experiences that feel fleeting.

    Episode 11 - The Hanged Man

    Pause, Perspective & the Wisdom of Surrender In this episode of This Ain’t Fortune Telling, Clo is joined by Victoria to explore one of the most misunderstood, and often resisted, cards in the tarot: The Hanged Man. This archetype doesn’t ask for action. It asks for something much harder: A pause. Together, Clo and Victoria unpack the symbolism of The Hanged Man, including the upside-down perspective, the sense of suspension, and the quiet clarity that can emerge when we stop trying to force movement. This card isn’t about being stuck or punished, it’s about stepping out of patterns long enough to see something differently. The conversation moves into real-life application, exploring what it feels like when life slows down unexpectedly, when clarity doesn’t come on demand, and when the only real option is to sit with what is. Through teaching, reflection, and a live reading, this episode invites listeners to reconsider their relationship with waiting, surrender, and the discomfort of not knowing what comes next. As always, tarot here isn’t about predicting the future, it’s about understanding the moment you’re in so you can meet it with more awareness. 🔮 In This Episode, We ExploreThe symbolism and imagery of The Hanged ManWhy this card represents perspective, not punishmentThe difference between being stuck and being in a meaningful pauseResistance to slowing down in a productivity-driven worldHow perspective shifts often require stillnessWhat surrender actually looks like in real lifeThe emotional experience of uncertainty and waitingHow to work with periods of suspension instead of fighting them✨ Key TakeawaysThe Hanged Man represents perspective gained through pauseNot all stillness is stagnation — some of it is necessarySurrender is not giving up — it’s allowing clarity to emergeGrowth doesn’t always come through actionResistance often makes a pause feel longer than it isA shift in perspective can change everythingWaiting can be productive when it creates awarenessNot knowing is part of the process, not a failure of itThe Hanged Man invites us to stop forcing and start seeing🎧 Live Reading HighlightThis episode includes a live tarot reading exploring what it means to be in a “paused” phase of life and how to work with that space instead of trying to escape it. 🔮 Reflection QuestionsWhere in your life are you being asked to pause — even if you don’t want to?What might become clearer if you stopped trying to force an answer?💜 Connect & Explore FurtherCloHost of This Ain’t Fortune Telling Tarot for clarity, not prediction 🌐 https://thisaintfortunetelling.com Read the blog, book a reading, or explore current offerings VictoriaLooking for Victoria?

    Episode 10 - Tarot - What we love, hate and don't understand

    A Panel Conversation In this episode of This Ain’t Fortune Telling, Clo brings together a small panel of tarot readers and tarot-curious humans for an honest conversation about the cards. What draws us to them, what frustrates us, and what still confuses us. Joining Clo for this roundtable discussion are Tara, Meaghan, and Sabrina, bringing a mix of seasoned experience and fresh perspective to the table. Together, they talk about how people first find tarot, the role intuition plays in reading the cards, and the many ways tarot can support self-discovery and personal growth. The conversation also touches on common misconceptions, frustrations within tarot culture, and the tension between structured learning and intuitive interpretation. Along the way, the panel explores topics that often spark debate in the tarot community, from reversals and symbolism to the impact of social media and the evolving language around the cards. At its heart, this episode is about curiosity. Tarot isn’t presented here as a fixed system or a set of rules to master, but as a reflective tool that helps people understand themselves, their patterns, and their choices more clearly. 🔮 In This Episode, We ExploreHow people first discover tarot and what draws them inThe role of intuition in reading the cardsWhy tarot decks and imagery can resonate differently with each readerThe joy — and challenge — of reading for othersFrustrations within tarot culture and common misunderstandingsReversals, structured meanings, and intuitive interpretationThe influence of social media on tarot practiceDoubt, skepticism, and evolving relationships with the cardsGendering and language within tarot symbolismTarot as a mirror for personal growth and self-reflection✨ Key TakeawaysTarot can be a powerful tool for reflection and self-discoveryIntuition often develops through practice and curiosityDifferent readers approach tarot in very different waysTarot culture can be inspiring, but also complicatedSocial media has changed how people learn and share tarotDoubt and skepticism are a natural part of the learning processThe cards can open conversations about identity, archetypes, and symbolismTarot is less about predicting the future and more about understanding the present💜 Connect With UsCloHost of This Ain’t Fortune Telling Tarot for clarity, not prediction. 🌐 https://thisaintfortunetelling.com Read the blog, book a reading, or explore current offerings through the website.
