What Now?
What now? This is a question we ask ourselves in exasperation when we are overwhelmed and feel we cannot handle anything more, and something more presents itself.
This is also a question we ask ourselves in confusion when we are not sure what to do next.
We wondered what to do after the completion of a project, after a success, or after a failure.
We wonder what to do after something unexpected happens and upends our plans.
When have an idea for a new path in life, we wonder what to do first to move forward.
We often wish we could receive direct marching orders from a Higher Power. Sometimes, we feel inspired, as if we have received a spiritual calling. Yet, even then, we are often at a loss to know what to do to follow the calling.
Logic, prayer, meditation, and divination can help us find the wisdom we need to know what comes next, and what we need to do when we find ourselves asking, “What now?”What now?

The StaarCorner
One of our StaarCon Mission Statements is to offer a wide variety of educational opportunities, and to teach a wide scope of topics. We are excited that Tabitha Dial will be joining us to offer a class in tea leaf reading, otherwise known as tasseomancy.
Tabitha is the author of the book, Creative Divination: Read Tea Leaves and Develop Your Personal Code.
We are excited to learn Tabitha’s modern approach to this ancient practice at StaarCon 2023.
Make plans to join us January 20 though 22 in person in West Palm Beach or online on Accelevents.
Tarot for a Next Step
When you find yourself asking “What now?” it is time to do a tarot reading.
You may decide to create a tarot spread for your situation, or you may simply ask a few questions and pull some cards. Here are some ideas to inspire you.
You can literally ask “What now?” and pull a card!
You can ask if there are other unexpected surprises on their way, and how best to prepare.
You can ask “What is my first step?” or “What is my next step?”
You can ask what you need to know about the way forward.
The Week in Review
Have you seen your July Tarotscopes on my YouTube channel yet? You can watch your sun sign, moon sign, and rising sign to get a forecast for the month.
If you missed the tarot class on YouTube last night, you can watch the replay.
I’ve started simulcasting my YouTube livestreams on my Instagram. You can catch me on either platform, but YouTube offers you a chance to see the cards in action on CardCam.
From Around the Web
Who has tarot readings? People of every walk of life, including this baseball player.
Finally, someone has said what I have been thinking about the dark side of TikTok tarot.
Though a product of the Middle Ages, modern tarot is striving to be inclusive. Cosmopolitan has compiled a list of tarot books for the LGBTQ+ community.
Guidance for the Journey
There are many tarot cards that can give you a clue that it is time to figure out your next step.
The Minor Arcana Twos, the Lovers, the Seven of Cups and the Four of Cups can say there are decisions to be made.
The Pages, Aces, the Fool, the Magician, and the Eight of Wands can suggest that a next step is needed.
The Six of Cups, the Hierophant, the Hermit, and Judgement may tell you that you need to rely on things you learned in the past to help you on your journey forward.
The Magician, the Pages, and the Eight of Pentacles may tell you that you need to learn something new in order to take a next step.
Perhaps one of the best uses of tarot divination is to find the inspiration, courage, and action steps to move forward on a new path.
