How to answer timing questions with Astrology & Tarot ⏳
Here are 3 methods that I use to answer timing related questions by combining Astrology and Tarot:
1. Using decans & the minor arcana of Tarot:
Each minor arcana card (from 2-10) corresponds to a decan of a sign. A decan is a 3 part division of the Sun’s transit through a sign. The Sun stays in a sign for 30 days and travels 30° of the sign in that period. Each decan is a 10 day period where the Sun travels 10° of a sign. [Picture a circle: a 360° angle. This is divided into 12 sections, for each zodiac sign. Each section would be 30° (360/12). Now this 30° section is further divided into 3 parts, each being 10°. This 10° section is called a decan.] So if you ask Tarot a timing related question and pull out a minor arcana card, you can assume that the event will occur during that 10 day period. For example, if you pull out the 2 of pentacles, then the event may occur between Dec 22nd -31st! You can find this decan wheel on my Instagram (linked above).
2. Using the major & minor arcana of Tarot:
Each major arcana card corresponds to an astrological sign or planet. If you pull out a few major arcana cards while asking a timing question, you can use them to find out when the event will occur. For example, if you pull out ‘The Empress’ (which corresponds to Venus) and ‘The Devil’ (which corresponds to Capricorn), then you can assume the event will occur when Venus is in Capricorn. You can also use the minor arcana to do this. Each minor arcana card (2-10) corresponds to a decan, and each decan corresponds to a planet. So if you pull out ‘3 of cups’ (corresponds to a Mercury ruled decan) and ‘The Star’ (corresponds to Aquarius) then you can assume the event will occur when Mercury is in Aquarius.
3. Using your intuition & astrological transits:
When you ask a timing question and pull out a card, use your intuition to correlate that card to an astrological transit. Ask yourself: “Which astrological transit does this card’s energy correspond to?” For example: One time I pulled out ‘page of swords’ and immediately thought of mercury retrograde. The event I was asking about ended up occurring the day mercury retrograde started!

These 3 methods were discussed by me in my Cazimi Con discussion on twitter! I even talked about how each Tarot card relates to its corresponding sign. The YouTube link is below (audio only, like a podcast!)
