Gonzo Tarot

When I was a teen, the prog rock group YES was very popular amongst my peers.  Their over produced and often uber long songs bored me to tears.  Instead, I preferred The Ramones, who were able to get right to the point and deliver the goods in less than two minutes.  

They were fast ‘n furious and always packed a musical punch.

Here’s a Ramones inspired tarot drill to help you get efficient and less wordy, tout suite (And btw, the less long winded you are in your tarot interps, the better.):

Shuffle your deck.  Pick two or three cards and turn ‘em over.  Now, here’s the trick:

Use ONE or TWO words to describe what you see.  No more than that, please. Think terse, not verbose.

Examples:

 arsontarot.001

ARSON

 

 rehabtarot.001

REHAB

 

hostiletakeovertarot.001
HOSTILE TAKEOVER

 

Practice this often and you’ll be faster on the tarot draw, pardner.  

Got it?  Your turn – pick your cards and post your results in the comment section below.  

“He who seldom speaks, and with one calm well-timed word can strike dumb the loquacious, is a genius or a hero” ~ Johann Kaspar Lavater

Here’s to being a reader of fewer words,
