hey what's going on my friends and welcome to my youtube channel my name is victor
and today's video is going to share with you why i stopped working with tarot cards
now before you tarot readers or your tarot fans get really mad at me hear me out to this day
i love tarot i'm a huge fan of tarot cards my favorite deck in fact is the osho zen turo deck
i have a lot of decks and i think they're beautiful and i think they can be very helpful
but what i've learned for myself is that like anything in life they can be abused
i was abusing them i was using them when i didn't need to use them
i was asking them questions i already knew the answer to and though at one point particularly
earlier on in my spiritual journey when i've yet to find my own inner guidance they served
me and they served me well like a lot of things in life there came a time to outgrow them and the
way this started to happen for me with the tarot cards in particular is i started to give myself
kind of bogus readings i would ask a question like you know what's gonna happen with this
in fact one time i it was it was a long time ago my daughter was sick she was my only child at the
time she was like three or four years old and she had a real bad case of the croup cough i don't
know if you your parents probably know what that is but it's a cough that sounds really really like
bad it sounds like they're freaking like gonna cough up a lung but it's pretty common thing for
kids and it was our first time seeing my daughter with it and i was just so afraid i was just like
oh my god is she gonna be okay and i would ask the cards is she gonna be okay and i'd get the death
card i'd get the devil car i get these crazy cards and i was like oh my god she's not gonna be okay
but as that would happen i would like intuitively know that she is fine i as a parent especially
your intuition is so on point i knew she was fine even though the experience was new and scary to me
those cards were just helping me by reflecting to me my disempowered relationship with them and
that can happen obviously beyond the scope of just tarot cards i had a friend in fact just the other
day he sent me this text message of a text that he received from a psychic advisor he used to
take counsel from and this psychic apparently she woke up in the middle of the night
with a dream about him and she sent him this text the text the nature of the text was something like
hey hey i had this dream about you and i want to kind of warn you that in the dreams it looks like
something bad's going to happen to you it looks like uh there's going to be a challenge in your
life and i just want to kind of let you know my friend was like uh vic what do you make of this
text this is unsettling to say the least instantly i was like dude what do you think of that text
what do you think of that what do you think about that text i said if the table were turned and i
said this what would your intuitive reaction be don't listen to that you create your own life
no one can see your future and even if they can it's not good to plant seeds of fear in
people regardless but you could choose if you want to buy into someone else's
opinion on your life so that was and this is somebody who used to see a lot of psychics there
would be trend there'd be challenges in his life he'd see a psychic and for a while it was helpful
to him but this was his way of life showing him that maybe you don't need to see so many psychics
vic maybe you don't need to ask the tarot cards what you should eat for freaking breakfast
another very common way this manifests is through your diet i remember when i first started going
through my spiritual awakening well actually several years into it i started getting really
i felt a strong aversion to red meat i just seemed heavy and i just couldn't do it so i
stopped eating red meat okay i guess i just eat chicken and fish then chicken started to kind of
taste funny and the the texture was just really off-putting so i stopped eating that is it okay
well good i found i found it i'm a pescetarian now great got it and then me and my wife one time were
eating these big lobster tails in south florida and i felt all this fear i felt it was i had this
really powerful negative experience that turned me off from all seafood said okay well
it's getting limited but i'm a vegetarian now cool and then i realized wow dairy
is not good for me it makes me kind of uh sinusey and and i feel worse when i eat the dairy so
and eggs and i slowly became a vegan and i said wow this is pretty cool i feel really clear i
feel very like like uh high vibrational but then certain vegan food started to kind of mess with
me and i said okay well i noticed raw foods made me feel great so i became a raw organic raw vegan
and even then i found when i was a raw vegan i was eating too many of like the fun
raw vegan food too many like those fatty desserts with all the nuts and stuff and yeah i was raw
yeah i was vegan but uh certain things make me feel better so then i limited myself like salads
and fruit and juices and then i was like wow what's next no food
and i was like okay now i found it i got it and then 30 pounds later lost i lost 30 pounds
and i was exhausted physically all the time i thought it was ascension symptoms but really i
would deprive my body of vital nutrients and even though and i was supplementing i was i was did a
lot of research on this i've been a personal trainer and into nutrition my whole life and
i did the raw vegan diet as soundly and correctly as one could but there came a point where not
only do i feel horrible my wife was going through this too and she couldn't hold a pregnancy we were
trying to have kids two um she had two what do you call uh miscarriages in a row and and we also felt
this like craving this like primal craving to reintroduce you know the heavier foods into our
life but i was resistant to it because i built this whole identity around the raw vegan victor
and and since then my my diet has is i've allowed it to kind of flow there are like seasons to
everything so anyway i love tarot cards please don't hate me you tarot readers i think there's
value in it i'm just saying i use it as an example to demonstrate my point that this spiritual
journey is constantly causing us to grow and outgrow our formal self we're never set we never
found the thing that's always going to be there in our life maybe oftentimes especially with a tool
there's a timing for it in fact i'll give another example with me like cannabis
i used to smoke a ton of weed and you know what i smoked a lot of wheat in high school
and i think it helped me it woke me up to the fact that man there was more than meets the eye and man
the authority you know my teachers the principles of all their fearful information about something
that just making me kind of happy and munchy and have a good time with my friends and think outside
the box it made me start to question my authority made me start to question my own concerns and
fears it broke me out it gave me that healthy rebellious adolescent mind to start thinking
for myself and i thank it for that and later in life it became a career i was a medical marijuana
grower and i loved it i smoked a lot at night of primo that i used to grow and it was it was cool
it i just it was good it was it had a place in my life but there came a point where especially when
i really started to dial in my life and my goals i realized that this chronic cannabis use is it's
making it really hard to stay productive and motivated on new goals new pursuits i just knew
even though it was so helpful in so many ways that it's time to let it go but here's the thing
it's come back into my life letting go for now isn't forever life is dynamic
i will now use cannabis once in a while sometimes a few times a week couple times a week to really
help me unwind to help me relax help me get into the moment to help put my life into perspective
and just realize i can just enjoy the mundane life of mine it can sometimes help me feel inspired to
clean the house it can help me and my wife have a beautiful connective experience it's it's a plant
teacher it's it's a wise plant consciousness but like anything terror cannabis psychics
there's a value for them i found this this is how i now roll with it what i want to sort of share
with you this is just me i've learned there's a season and a timing for everything and that's
always changing i've learned to be flexible and let my intuition guide me to the different
forms of assistance that life has to offer and i'll know it when the time is right and
when i when i do whatever it is it doesn't matter what tarot cards aren't bad cannabis
is not bad psychic advisors have helped me in so many ways none of it is bad but the timing
has to line up and when it does it doesn't even matter what it is it's going to assist me so
anyways my friends have an amazing day that's my message of the day talk to you soon peace
