It’s a natural law of the Universe that when you love and appreciate what you have, you’ll get more if it. It’s impossible to feel fear or lack when you are practicing gratitude.
Use these six tarot cards to practice gratitude and appreciation, and turn your tarot journal into a Gratitude Journal. In addition to writing down what these cards mean for you, include your specific thoughts about what you love in your life, and more specifically, WHY you love it.
When you journal about WHY you appreciate each item, you’ll be cementing those grateful feelings into your body so you can emotionally draw more of that goodness into your life.
