About Carrie and  @QuickLearnQuests 
===============================

I have been reading tarot cards for 30 years for fun. I took a two and a half day course, and I was so excited to be able to take the mystery out of getting readings done for myself, and to be able to do them myself. We also have social media channels, TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube and all major podcast distributors such as Spotify, Apple, Audible and many others under the handle @quickLearnQuests. I am focusing mostly on my podcasts and YouTube at the moment, but I will expand into more social media more consistently when I find my feet.  

Here is the transcript:

Welcome to the "Memorizing Tarot Cards" podcast, your three-minute lessons to learning and memorizing each card using symbolism instead of fluff. I use the Rider Wait Tarot if you listen and watch episodes with your own deck. Today, we are diving into the meaning behind the two of wands. We will start with a simple breakdown of the suit and number. The second part will dig into more symbolism to help you look at this card and tell a story. First, let's start with the suit and number.
The suit of wands represents fire and passion within us. Examples are creative projects and ideas, new hope, recognition of potential, and motivation. Wands are structured like a deck of playing cards and has cards numbered one to ten. The ace is a new beginning, and card two is the second step which represents planning and making decisions or choices. Putting it together, the Two of Wands is about planning your next step on a project you are passionate about, and making plans and decisions. Next, let's take the symbolism a step further. In the Rider Wait deck, the Two of Wands has a person with a globe in one hand and a wand in the other. The globe implies influence and opportunities. the wands are up straight and sturdy. representing solid foundation of achievements. The ground beneath the person is solid. The landscape is full of abundance. Water, land, and the mountains. The path ahead shows a journey with ups and downs that may take some endurance. The astrology associated with the Two of Wands is Aries. The Aries traits connected to this card are assertive action, a pioneering spirit, and there may be some impatience. Now that we have covered the basics, symbolism, and even a bit of astrology, how do we apply this card to a reading? Looking solely at this card, you would take its meaning and apply it to the meaning of the position in the spread. For example, in the past position, you can explain that in the past, the person changed directions, started something new they are excited about, and are making plans and decisions around how to move it ahead. 

How did I memorize the Two of Wands? Instead of memorizing the card itself, I memorized the symbols, numbers and suits and kept practicing. For the Two of Wands, I memorized that all the number two cards are the second step in the journey, which is planning and decisions. Knowing what the two means helps me interpret a piece of five different cards. I memorized that wands are journeys around things that come from passion and fire, not logic. This is a trait of all fourteen wands cards. Wands is a situation that involves creativity, excitement, and bold action. And repetition. As you listen to these three-minute lessons, you will have consistent reminders of symbolism that apply across different cards in the deck. Thank you for listening. Join us for more three-minute lessons to memorize more cards.
