Tarot Blog Hop

Master List

WELCOME


If you have followed the exploits of The Tarot Blog Hop Group before, or even if this is your first time, the let me quickly explain, our group is made up of Tarot readers, enthusiasts, and creators together are creating new and sometimes scary topics and challenges!


My name is Jay, my fellow hopper, mad capped adventuress and wrangler, Joy Vernon of Completely Joyous and I brought the hops back to life after a period of quiet. Over this last year the hops have taken on various forms, from a 24-hour marathon, a write-in, to the usual hour or two, to jump-starting the way-back when machine to 2016 and with a touch of cartomancy-necromancy one of the group's fun and slightly warped hops was resurrected back to life.


Before we get into the topic for this round, if you are new to the hop, or haven't done it in a while, then be sure to check out the Rules on the Group and FAQ's here on the site as well.

Remember, you can navigate your way through each blog using the
PREVIOUS | MASTER | NEXT links at the top, middle, or bottom of a post. As the idea of a blog hop is very much like a round-robin or circle, you will eventually end up back where you started.

There is also a running order or Master List, which is where you are at the moment. The list is at the bottom of this page, so be sure to check it out if you get lost at any point in your journey.

Okay, that does it for the ground rules / in case of emergency part of the post, let's get into the topic...


Read on below to find out more...

"Mabon or the fall equinox is the second harvest festival. Traditionally, it’s when fruits and vegetables are harvested, when autumn begins, and when Wiccans believe the Goddess moves from Mother to Crone. It’s a time to give thanks for all that has been provided." 

The Pagan Grimoire


With this in mind it's time to explore the topic below...


Topic:  Burning Bushes on the Path to Enlightenment


Are you familiar with concept of the burning bush? Well this Mabon I am going to invite you to investigate two concepts of burning bushes of your own. Using the Tarot, Oracle, or Astrology I'd like you to enlighten your readers as to what you think they represent.


Perhaps you see these concepts as warning? or maybe a path to enlightenment?


Concept One: What does it mean to be a “good person”?


How do you define good and bad in terms of the Tarot, what signifies a black knight or a shining prince, where do you draw the line at a wicked queen or fairy godmother? - What cards signify dodgy dealings or good deeds?


Concept Two: What is being healed?


Does the Tarot heal? We've all seen it happen or felt it within our own self, but does it actually heal? When we draw those cards, it is the words or the cards themselves that create the conditions for a healing to take place? - Which cards signify healing for you?


As always with these adventures, you may take parts of these themes and run with them in your own way, or within the concept of the topic, Transitions, you may have come up with something entirely unqiue.


As long as it is Tarot based, please feel free to let your muses sing.
