🃏 Tarot, Saul, and the Holy Hypocrisy✨

💁‍♀️ Let’s talk about the folks who clutch their pearls at the sight of a tarot deck, declaring it “devil work” 👿. Funny thing is, the Bible itself is full of divination; holy, priestly, and downright desperate. 📖 Saul’s Spiritual Plot Twist: King Saul, bless his conflicted heart, once had the gift of prophecy. But when he lost it, he went on a crusade to banish all mediums and spiritual workers from the land (1 Samuel 28:3). Bravo, Saul, nothing says “I’m holy” like firing everyone who still has the gift you lost. 😏 But here’s the kicker: when Saul was desperate for answers, he sneaked off to consult a medium anyway. 🔮 Yep, the same guy who outlawed them went undercover to ask the Witch of Endor to summon Samuel’s spirit (1 Samuel 28:7–14). Hypocrisy much? 🕵️‍♂️✨ 🎲 Holy Dice: Urim and Thummim: Meanwhile, God’s own priests were out here rolling sacred dice; literally. The Urim and Thummim were tools of divination used by the high priest to discern God’s will (Exodus 28:30). Imagine condemning tarot while your priest is basically shaking a pair of divine Magic 8 Balls. 🎱✨ 🚫 The “Forbidden” Verses: Yes, the Bible warns against divination: “Let no one be found among you who practices divination or sorcery" (Deuteronomy 18:10). But context matters. The prohibition is against divination divorced from God’s Spirit. When led by divine guidance, the practice was not only allowed; it was institutionalized. So, if you’re going to wag your finger at tarot, maybe wag it at Saul first. Or at the priest tossing Urim and Thummim like Vegas dice. 🎲😇 Cards, Stones, and Holy Contradictions: 🙌 Those who are born of water and Spirit carry within them the indwelling presence of God, a light that cannot be confined to ritual or tradition alone ✨. As Jesus taught, “The kingdom of God is within you” (Luke 17:21), reminding us that divine wisdom flows from the inside out. That inner Spirit grants discernment, whether through prayer, meditation, dreams, or even the symbolic language of tarot. 🎴 When guided by love and truth, every tool becomes a mirror reflecting God’s voice, for it is not the medium that sanctifies the message, but the Spirit that breathes through it. 🌈💖 ⚠️ Beware the False Light: Not every tarot reader or spiritual guide is cut from the same divine cloth. 🌟 Some shine with authentic Spirit led discernment, while others peddle what scripture calls “false light”; a glow that dazzles but deceives. Remember, even Paul warned that “Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light” (2 Corinthians 11:14). So discern wisely: a deck in the wrong hands can be manipulation, but in Spirit led hands it becomes revelation. 🎴✨ The key is not to fear the tool, but to test the spirit behind it. True guidance uplifts, empowers, and aligns with love; false light drains, confuses, and binds. 🚫💡 🙏 Prayer for Spiritual Discernment: 🕊 Heavenly Creator, Source of wisdom and light, we thank You for dwelling within us. ✨ Guide our hearts to discern truth in every form it arrives through scripture, through Spirit, through signs, and through the symbols that speak to our souls. 🌈 Grant us courage to walk in love, clarity to see beyond fear, and strength to honor the divine spark in ourselves and others. 💖 May our paths be lit with joy, our words seasoned with grace, and our choices aligned with Your eternal presence. 🌟 In Jesus’ name, Amen. Ameen. Ase. So be it. 🪷 Love & Light Affirmation: I walk in wisdom, humor, and discernment. I honor Spirit’s guidance in all its forms. I release fear, embrace truth, and shine love and light wherever I go. 💝 📚 Sources: The Holy Bible, 1 Samuel 28:3–14. Exodus 28:30. Deuteronomy 18:10.
