Okay, so, I wanted to mess around with something totally different from my usual stuff. That’s when I stumbled upon this Dali Tarot thing. Yeah, the Salvador Dali, the guy with the melting clocks. Turns out, he made a tarot deck back in the 70s. Who knew, right?
I got my hands on a deck – not sure if it’s the real deal from back then or a reprint, doesn’t really matter to me. First thing I did was just flip through them. Man, these cards are wild. It’s like stepping into one of his paintings. You got your usual tarot characters, but they’re all twisted up in Dali’s surreal style. It’s like he took the normal tarot meanings and threw them in a blender with his dreams.
I’m no tarot expert, but I know the basics. I used to mess around with the Rider-Waite deck when I was younger. That one’s pretty straightforward. The symbols are clear, and it’s easy to get the gist of each card. But this Dali deck, it’s a whole other story. He’s got his signature on every single card, I mean, it’s just so Dali, you know?
So, I decided to actually try reading with them. I laid out a simple three-card spread – past, present, future, you know the drill. And I just stared at them, trying to make sense of the images. It wasn’t easy. It’s like, you recognize the card, like “Oh, that’s the Empress,” but then she’s got all these weird Dali touches. I noticed that he put all kinds of symbols from tarot, astrology, even religion all blended into his own art style, that was quite impressive.
- First off, I pulled out the Magician card. In the Rider-Waite deck, he’s this confident dude with all his tools laid out. But in the Dali deck, It’s quite similar but covered by Dali’s style.
- Then, for the present, I got the Lovers. Again, I know the typical meaning – choices, relationships, blah blah. But Dali’s version? It’s a whole scene, very dramatic and, well, surreal. I’m still trying to figure that one out, to be honest.
- Finally, for the future, I pulled the Star. Now, this one I kinda get. It’s hopeful, but it’s also kinda lonely, you know? Very Dali.
Honestly, trying to read these cards felt like trying to interpret a dream. It’s not about clear-cut meanings. It’s more about feelings and vibes. I spent a good hour just looking at the spread and letting the images sink in.
I gotta say, I didn’t get any clear answers to my questions. But that wasn’t really the point, I guess. It was more about the experience. It’s like, Dali’s art makes you think in a different way. And using his art for tarot? That just takes it to another level.
I ended up putting the cards away, feeling a little overwhelmed but also kinda inspired. It’s like, I got a little glimpse into Dali’s mind. And it’s a messy, beautiful, confusing place.
So, yeah, that’s my Dali Tarot adventure.
It wasn’t what I expected, but it was definitely interesting. I wouldn’t recommend it for beginners. If you want clear and easy, stick with Rider-Waite. But if you’re up for a challenge, and you’re into Dali’s art, then give it a shot. Just be prepared to have your mind blown a little.
