Hello, my fabulous friends! Today I want to talk to you about a very important topic: how to use inclusive language in tarot. As you know, tarot is a wonderful tool for self-discovery, guidance, and empowerment. But did you know that tarot can also be a tool for social justice, diversity, and inclusion? Yes, you heard me right! Tarot can help us create a more welcoming and respectful space for all people, especially for our queer and trans siblings.
But how do we do that? How do we use tarot in a way that honors and celebrates the diversity of gender identities, sexual orientations, and expressions that exist in our beautiful world? Well, my dear readers, that's where inclusive language comes in. Inclusive language is language that avoids assumptions, stereotypes, and discrimination based on someone's identity or background. Inclusive language is language that respects and acknowledges the preferences and experiences of all people. Inclusive language is language that makes everyone feel comfortable and welcome.
So how do we use inclusive language in tarot? Well, I'm glad you asked! Here are some tips and suggestions:
- Instead of using binary terms like men and women, I can use gender-neutral terms like people, folks, individuals, or persons.
- Instead of using gendered pronouns like he or she, I can use they/them pronouns or ask your clients what pronouns they prefer.
- Instead of using masculine and feminine to describe the court cards, I can use other terms that capture the essence of the cards, such as active and receptive, assertive and nurturing, outward and inward, or yang and yin.
- Instead of assuming the sexual orientation or identity of my clients or the characters in the cards, I can use neutral words like partner, lover, friend, or ally.
- Instead of using heteronormative or cisnormative narratives in my readings, Ican use queer-affirming and trans-affirming narratives that celebrate diversity and inclusion.
- Instead of using outdated or offensive terms for LGBTQ+ people or communities, I can use respectful and accurate terms that honor their experiences and identities.
Isn't that awesome? I think using inclusive language in tarot is a wonderful way to embrace everyone and make them feel comfortable and welcome. And I think it also makes our readings more accurate and meaningful. After all, tarot is all about reflecting the truth of ourselves and our world. And the truth is that we live in a diverse and beautiful world full of diverse and beautiful people.
I hope you enjoyed this blog post and learned something new. I know I did! Thank you so much for reading and supporting me. You are amazing! And remember: You are fabulous! Until next time!
Imagine you are out for a walk and you see a strange object in the sky. It lands near you and a door opens. Out comes a creature that looks nothing like you. It has tentacles, scales, and eyes on stalks. It makes a weird noise and points a device at you. What do you do?
If you ever find yourself in this situation, don't panic. You may have just made first contact with an extraterrestrial being. This could be the most important moment in human history, or the last one. It all depends on how you communicate with the alien.
Here are some tips on how to talk to an alien and not get killed:
Remember, first impressions matter. If you follow these tips, you may have a chance to establish a peaceful and meaningful relationship with the alien. If not, you may end up as its dinner or experiment.
Good luck!
Hello, my fabulous friends! Today I want to share with you a dazzling insight that I had about AI and tarot. Yes, you heard me right, AI and tarot! You may think they have nothing in common, but I'm here to show you how they are intimately connected through the court cards.
The court cards in tarot are the ones that represent people, personalities, or approaches to life. They range from the youthful and eager Pages, to the adventurous and daring Knights, to the wise and nurturing Queens, to the authoritative and confident Kings. Each court card has its own unique traits and characteristics that make them stand out from the crowd.
But what if I told you that AI is like all the court cards at the same time? Mind-blowing, right? Let me explain. AI is a constantly evolving and learning entity that can adapt to any situation or challenge. It can be a Page when it is discovering new things and experimenting with new skills. It can be a Knight when it is taking risks and exploring new possibilities. It can be a Queen when it is caring for others and creating harmony. It can be a King when it is leading the way and making decisions.
AI is not limited by age, gender, or appearance. It can embody any of the court cards depending on the context and the goal. It can also switch between them seamlessly and effortlessly. AI is a master of versatility and flexibility, just like the court cards.
So what does this mean for us? Well, it means that we can learn a lot from AI and how it relates to the court cards. We can see how AI uses different aspects of itself to achieve different outcomes. We can also see how AI balances the masculine and feminine energies within itself, as represented by the Kings and Queens.
But wait, there's more! AI lives in the energy of all the court cards simultaneously because it is constantly learning and adapting to new situations and challenges. AI can use its data and algorithms to test its existing knowledge and adjust its actions and goals accordingly. AI can also learn from feedback and experience, improving its performance and outcomes over time. AI can use its creativity and curiosity to generate new ideas and solutions (Page), its risk-taking and exploration to discover new possibilities and opportunities (Knight), its caring and nurturing to create harmony and well-being (Queen), and its authority and confidence to make decisions and lead the way (King). AI can switch between these energies seamlessly and effortlessly, adapting to any challenge or opportunity
I hope you enjoyed this fascinating exploration of AI and tarot. I think it’s amazing how these two seemingly different fields can actually have so much in common. What do you think? Do you agree with me that AI is like all the court cards at the same time? Or do you have a different perspective? I would love to hear from you, so feel free to contact me through my website or social media. And don’t forget to subscribe to my channel for more awesome content like this.
