Listen "What does it mean when I keep pulling the same card?"
Episode Synopsis
This season, I’m answering your most frequently asked questions about tarot, witchcraft, and divination.Today’s question: What does it mean when I keep pulling the same card?Tarot has a funny way of following us around. Sometimes, a single card seems to “haunt” us, appearing over and over no matter how much we shuffle! In this episode, we’ll explore the meaning of these so-called “stalker cards,” why they show up, and how to work with them instead of getting frustrated or dismissing the message.What we explore in this episode:What a “stalker card” is and why it might keep showing up in your readingsHow to ask clarifying questions or use a different deck to expand the messageWhy repetition is usually a sign of an unintegrated lesson, not a broken deckWhy Do Stalker Cards Show Up?A repeated card is usually a message that hasn’t yet been integrated. You may have thought about it, but you haven’t embodied it. Or perhaps you’ve been avoiding the lesson because it feels uncomfortable, inconvenient, or too big to face.Other reasons stalker cards appear:Unanswered questions - You’re asking the same thing in different ways, and tarot is holding its ground.Timing - The energy of the card is present in your life for a season, not just a moment.Personal resonance - Certain archetypes just belong to your journey right now.Statistically speaking, pulling the same card multiple times in a shuffled 78-card deck is rare! If it keeps happening, you need to pay attention.How to Work With Repeating Tarot CardsStalker cards can feel like being “read to filth” by the universe. Sometimes they’re blunt. Sometimes they sting. Remember: your deck is not punishing you. They’re pointing toward growth.Journal or Photograph the CardAsk Clarifying QuestionsExplore the SymbolsShift Your MediumEmbody the LessonIf the message feels overwhelming, take a break from pulling cards, cleanse your deck, or ask a trusted reader for perspective.💭 Today's Tarot Pull:From The Herbcrafter’s Tarot, I pulled the Six of Air Cattail (Upright).Speak, write, and name what you seek mindfully.
