Tarot News blog has news and information of interest to the tarot community.
Hello, 2025!
Today, we welcome a New Year.
A new year dawns today.
We put a lot of energy into the New Year. We celebrate, predict, manifest, and set goals, intentions, and resolutions.
The New Year seems relatively arbitrary compared to special days in astrology or other, more ancient calendars. Yet, the New Year has power simply because we all agree to honor it.
Some approach the New Year with trepidation, anxious about what might await them. Others approach with optimism, determined to stay hopeful.
Whatever you feel about the onset of 2025, this New Year offers an opportunity to harness some hope, optimism, and celebration and direct that good energy toward your best desires for the year.
A New Year is here. Why not greet it with a hopeful heart?
We wish each other a Happy New Year, sometimes by rote. Let’s wish ourselves a Happy New Year and make it happen.
The StaarCorner
We will have the final StaarCon 2024 lounge session in Serena Fox’s lounge on Thursday, January 16th, at 5:30 pm. Ticket holders can access the event portal until access ends on January 20th at 9:00 pm.
StaarCon 5 ticketholders can enter the StaarCon 5 event portal on January 17th at 9 am. Get your ticket now and plan your conference!
We are so excited for all the fabulous StaarCon 5 presenters. You can check out the complete list on the StaarCon website.
Presenting for the first time at StaarCon will be Hippy Pippy. Pip comes from the United Kingdom to share an approachable and fun tarot workshop with you, where you will learn more about tarot and yourself!
Get ready for three days of divination and magic and a full year of online study and fellowship!
Greet the New Year with Tarot
Tarot is perfect for the New Year in so many ways. Of course, tarot readings are great entertainment at New Year parties!
Many people like to perform a serious reading at the beginning of each year. Some people like to create a unique spread for the New Year. Others use a traditional spread each year to look to the year ahead. For some, this is as simple as a card for each month.
New Year predictions can be fun, and New Year advice from the cards can prove helpful.
We can also do tarot magic for the New Year! What is it that you would like to have happen this year? Which energies do you need to cultivate?
Figure out which tarot cards embody those things and pull them from your deck. Spend time with them, recreate them in your chosen art form, put them on your altar, or sleep with them under your bed. You can even print out the card images and carry them with you.
Interacting with these images will help you create the year you want.

Here are easy instructions to calculate your personal tarot year card for 2025.
2025 is Nine in numerology and therefore associated with the Hermit. Katrina Wynne will guide the StaarCon community through the year of the Hermit. Want to know more about the year of the Hermit? Here is a take from Cathy McClelland.
What Should We Do in 2025?
This is the space where, for the past year, we have been discussing magic and how to use it in our practical lives. The previous year, this was a spot to celebrate and encourage creativity.
Over the years, we have done one-card readings in this spot. We have also explored all seventy-eight cards of the tarot and the thirty-six cards of the Petit Lenormand.
What would you like to see in this spot for 2025? Please send me an email and let me know!

In This Moment
What happens when we are present in the moment, rather than focused on the past or future?
It happens every year. About a week before Christmas, random strangers ask me if I’m ready. As the holiday approaches, the questions become more panicked and more insistent.
Long ago, I gave up on holiday stress in favor of holiday presence.
In tarot and divination, there is an enormously popular spread. It’s just three cards, one for Past, one for Present, and one for Future. This can be a helpful way to see where we have been and where we are going.
Yet, we often spend too much time thinking about the past and the future and not enough time just observing and participating in the current moment.
Holidays mark the passage of time. Our traditions remind us of our history and cause us to look to the past. A New Year fills us with anticipation or worry for the future.
Perhaps the most significant present we can give to ourselves this holiday season is the gift of being present without trying to relive the past or plan for the future.
If we can be secure, happy, and grateful in a single moment, right now, I am sure the joy of that can honor and heal the past, and secure the future we want.
The StaarCorner
StaarCon 5 is just around the corner!
We will have a final StaarCon 2024 Lounge session in Serena Fox’s lounge on Thursday, January 16th, at 5:30 pm. StaarCon 2024 ticket holders can access the StaarCon 2024 event portal until access ends on January 20th at 9:00 pm.

Tarot in the Moment
How do we interpret the “Present” position in the ‘Past, Present, Future’ spread?
What does it mean to pull a card to see what is true at present?
Whether we interpret a card as part of a spread or pull a single card, when we read for the present, we need to see it as valuable wisdom for the moment.
A card for the present may speak of our mood, or our current well-being. It may bring up a worry or concern or may caution us to pay attention to something pressing. A card for the present may turn our attention to something important, or simply let us know that, in this moment, everything is fine.
There is rarely a bad time to ask the cards what we need to know in this present moment.

Greetings of the Season
Holiday wishes and upcoming events!
When we first moved to Florida ten years ago, I was a bit confused about what would happen at Christmastime. Growing up in the Northeast, so much of my experience of the holiday season was based on the celebration of winter.
It turns out that we sing “Let it Snow” and wear snowflake jewelry and enjoy the irony. We put lights on palm trees, and even make light patterns on the lawn! Our food traditions are a little different because, here in Florida Christmas is a holiday best celebrated with a barbeque!
What I have learned over the years is that it doesn’t matter where you celebrate, how you celebrate or even what you celebrate – this time of year has a special and sacred energy.
May the blessings of the season be yours!
Book Your Reading or Party in the Tampa Area Now!
I will be in the Tampa Bay Area January 11-13 to start a series of appearances on the west coast of Florida. If you are in the Tampa Bay Area and interested in a house call or psychic house party this winter, call or text me at 561-655-1160.
Study Tarot This Year
Why not make a resolution to add tarot to your toolbox this year? On January 6 I am teaching a beginner tarot class in my Palm City office. Each month I teach one or two classes in the office.
In January and February, I am teaching tarot classes at Dream Angels in Tequesta.
If you want to study with me privately, or at a distance, my mentorship program is perfect for you!
Whether you choose to read for others or to simply use tarot for your own reflection, the study of tarot will deepen your psychic abilities and spiritual connection and offer insight and inspiration to you for the rest of your life.
Make 2019 the year to embrace tarot!
