I was going crazy one day looking for my car keys. I'm good at loosing them. I decided to see if the tarot could be of some help in finding them. I picked up the deck and demanded to know where my car keys were. (LOL) It was a three card reading.
The cards implied that I was being lazy and disorganized and that was the reason I misplaced things. (I was being preached at by the cards.) I acknowledged that advice and once again asked where my car keys were.
In my mind I was thinking: "How stupid is this. How can a deck of cards tell me where something is? I'm just wasting my time."
The readings meant pretty much nothing as I stared at them, and I did three readings... nothing came to mind. But then I took note that in every reading the page of wands had shown up.
Now when a card's traditional meaning tells you nothing, I had read that you should just look at the picture and ignore the traditional meaning. On that page of wands (my former deck) there was a lot of darkness and a candle. Since the card had shown up three time out of three I knew that was the card with the answer, but I got nothing. I got frustrated and just decided to give up and I grabbed all of the cards and started putting them back and while doing that the page of wands flipped out of the deck.
Four out of four. That did it. That was my card. I studied it carefully. It's dark, and there is a candle. That is what stood out to me. My car keys were in a dark place .... where I kept ... candles?
Then I remembered a drawer next to my computer where I kept candles because one night the lights had gone out so I put candles and matches in there. I went to that drawer, and low and behold, there were my car keys.
I think the answer is there, but sometimes we just don't see it.
