Using Tarot for Affirmations (Snowland Deck Edition)

I'm a huge proponent for the conscious use of Tarot cards for inspiration, contemplation, creative writing, therapy, bridge building, brainstorming and so on. 

Another valuable method for conscious Tarot practice involves using the cards as visual affirmations.

You can use any Tarot or oracle deck that features a range of emotions and situations for this purpose. Simply decide what you'd like to feel or what you'd like to experience more of in your life, go through a Tarot deck (face up), and select the card or cards that embodies this state for you.

I've compiled dozens of visual affirmations for you using our Snowland Deck, but you can transfer most states to the deck and card/s of your choice.
