As many other teachers, Kate also always tries to stay one step ahead—not just in grammar drills or vocabulary games, but also in understanding the energies that might impact her day. One question that popped up recently: Will my student cancel today’s class at 7 PM?
Instead of sitting in uncertainty, Kate turned to me and my tarot—a tool she often uses to gain clarity and insight into the less obvious currents influencing her professional life.
Tarot Spread: Insight into Student Cancellations
I pulled three tarot cards for Kate to illuminate the situation:
- The Four of Cups – This card suggests emotional withdrawal or disengagement. It often appears when someone is overwhelmed or distracted by internal struggles. For Kate, this indicated that her student might be preoccupied, emotionally checked out, or simply lacking the motivation to show up for class.
- The Two of Pentacles (Reversed) – Reversed, this card points to poor time management, imbalance, and the inability to juggle responsibilities. It’s often associated with someone who’s overwhelmed by their daily tasks. This reinforced Kate’s suspicion that her student might cancel due to scheduling chaos or burnout.
- The Moon – This mysterious card speaks of uncertainty, hidden truths, and confusion. It suggests there are factors at play that Kate might not be aware of—perhaps the student is dealing with a personal issue or hasn’t yet decided whether or not to attend.
The Tarot’s Message for Teachers: Prepare for Flexibility
Taken together, the tarot reading didn’t deliver a definite “yes” or “no.” Instead, it offered Kate a subtle warning: there’s a high chance her student may not follow through today. Whether due to emotional detachment, overwhelming responsibilities, or unforeseen complications, the energy around the class felt unstable.
Instead of reacting with frustration, Kate adjusted her expectations. She sent a kind reminder message, prepared a lighter lesson plan, and remained open to rescheduling. This empowered approach helped her turn uncertainty into preparation—and even opened up space for self-care, just in case the class didn’t happen.
The Outcome
Kate received a message from her student just two hours after I did the reading for her, saying that she might not be able to attend the course because her mother had just called and asked if she could take her to the doctor in case her husband couldn’t do it. She informed her that she would let her know within an hour whether she would be able to attend the course or not. In the end, she had to cancel the course because she had to take her mother to the doctor.
Why Tarot Is a Valuable Tool for Teachers
Teachers often carry the emotional weight of their students. Tarot offers a way to check in with the unseen dynamics that affect class attendance, engagement, and energy. Whether you’re facing a no-show student, a difficult parent meeting, or a classroom dilemma, tarot can bring grounding, insight, and calm to your day.
