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.

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.

From Around the Web
Daily Tarot Girl Kate has a wonderful tarot spread for 2025 for you to try!
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!

Bright Blessings for 2020
Welcome 2020!
New Year’s Day is one of my favorite holidays. While there are many cultures that celebrate their spiritual new year at a different date and according to a different calendar, our secular calendar new year is a time when we all set our sights on renewal, improvements, and hope.
The new year is also a great time for reflection. We can be proud of our accomplishments of the prior year, and proud of surviving difficult times.
Although the new decade does not truly begin until 2021, there is something special about the number switch this year. Twenty-twenty just sounds cool! It’s also the term we use to describe perfect eyesight. That makes the year 2020 a great time to speak of clarity and vision.
As I look back at 2019, I am proud and grateful for so many things. My son received his bachelor’s degree. We moved into our new office. We published the second edition of my book Tarot Tour Guide. I went to Portland, Oregon to present at the Northwest Tarot Symposium.
I hope your year was as productive as mine!
As I look to 2020, I am excited for many things, both personally and professionally. Keep your eyes on my upcoming events to see some of what I am working on. Right now, I am doing “The Twelve Days of Christmas Tarot Epiphanies” on Facebook Live, so look for that on Facebook and YouTube through January 6. I am also excited to be offering a free monthly webinar on YouTube live, starting January 19th.
In the Palm City office, I am happy to announce some guest teachers and leaders who will be joining me in presenting fun, informative events this year. In January Mary Ellen Collins will be presenting a beginner astrology class. In the beginning of February Miranda Lial will host a Murder Mystery Party for us. At the end of February Ciro Marchetti will be joining us for our grand opening celebration! You can make your reservations for these fun events now.
Of course, my first two tarot tours of 2020 are already planned, so I hope to see you in the Tampa area at the end of this month, and in Connecticut and Rhode Island in the spring!
I am so grateful to be able to do the work I do. I thank you for allowing me to be a part of your 2019, and I look forward to working with you in 2020.
May all the blessings of a new year be yours!

The Promise of Something New
Tarot cards for new beginnings, webinars, classes and more.
I hope your 2019 is off to a great start – but even if it’s not, don’t worry.
There are a lot of superstitions about New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day, but the truth is, what happens in the beginning of the year does not impact or predict how the year may turn out for you.
What is the best creator and predictor of your success this you? You are!
Inherent in every new beginning, be it a new year, a new day, a new job or a new attitude, is a potential for change, and a promise of possibility.
That energy of newness is a magical thing. As we get older it sometimes becomes harder to hope for, or anticipate, great new things. Yet, the more excitement we can muster, and the more optimism we generate, the more likely we are to create something wonderful.
Let’s greet the opportunities of 2019 with hope, with wonder, and with optimism.
Join Us Tonight for a Free Webinar

New Beginnings in Tarot
It’s interesting to note that many tarot cards can indicate the beginning of something new. Here are my favorite heralds of new energy in tarot.
The Fool
The Fool can discuss a new adventure, or a new journey.
The Magician
The Magician can talk about initiation; studying something new or taking a step toward a specific goal.
Death
Death is a card of transformation. In this card we may see a change that creates a new opportunity.
The Aces
All four Aces can indicate a new beginning. The sort of new beginning is indicated by the element of the suit.
The Pages
Each Page carries a youthful energy full of promise, and could discuss a new lesson, or a new opportunity to learn. As with the Ace, the type of lesson is denoted by the suit.
The next time you see any of these cards in your reading, know that something new may be coming your way.
If you want to manifest something new in your life, use these cards in meditation and ceremony to help manifest that opportunity.
The Week in Review
This past week I shared a blogpost on my 78 Magickal Tools Blog. The post offers a special tarot spread to predict your year based on the Wheel of the Year. What makes this spread different than other New Year spreads is it also offers an opportunity for you to manifest what you want in 2019.
From Around the Web
Because this is the first full week of 2019, here are some other tarot spreads and techniques for the New Year for you to try.
From the Wild Unknown Tarot, here is a Year Ahead Spread based on the months.
Here is a tarot spread based on the astrological houses from Jess Carlson.
Did you know that we each have a special tarot card of the year? From. Jessi Huntenburg, here’s how to find yours.
