For considered opinions:

I don't do very many daily tarot card pulls at all, but I have done some over the years. Recently I was going through some past journal entries and reviewed one from 9 / 16 / 2016. I did this pull to see what the Macrocosmic powers that be had to tell me about a question regarding my "Path", so I pulled from the Major Arcana only which was an Intuitive decision right there for Large Cosmic questions. The result of the pull was the "High Priestess" which was very much in line with what I hoped would be a result, I was happy and satisfied with that result!

Most "Magical Practitioners" are well aware of the presence of "Synchronicity" in their lives, some like myself even take it for granted as one of the "gifts" of performing all that Basic Magical Hard Work! ;) So... while reviewing that old Journal entry from 9 / 16 /2016 tarot pull that sure did turn out to be amazingly profound, I wondered what the conditions are Now? Right there on 7 /16 / 2024 I got out an old worn favorite deck, and after a "short" meditation on the original question, with the exact same procedure, I pulled the Exact Same Card! Wow! Both pulls also took place between 23:30 and 00:00 hours on their respective days as well. (For what that's worth).

So I wrote up the whole thing Again with cross referenced dates, and went to find my wife, she's a "trained tarot person" and a Witch, she just looked at me for a second or two, then with a "slight mischievous" smile she said, "Well what else did you Expect?" Me, "Duh!?!"

How "likely or unlikely" does this result seem to someone else not involved, therefore an "objective" observer? 🤘

I guess what the outcome of that second pull which duplicated the first pull exactly tells me is that by following the the outcome years before was the "Right Thing" to do, By doing that, things have progressed to the stage where I feel they "Should" be, no complaints, smooth sailing.
I had a "real strong" Intuitive feeling that I needed to do what that pull suggested! Glad that I Did too! :cool:

The chance of pulling the same card twice is 1 in 78. So statistically, not very likely. But we all know that the whole point of Tarot is to use the laws of statistics to provide useful answers :)

Well, the statistical odds aren't staggering ( and they have their place ). I guess the substance of the symbology (message) not having changed in just under Eight (8) years was an appropriate clue though. You're either on the "right" track, or you're not. My interpretation is that:
"if it ain't broke, don't fix it". There's just something about this that says "common sense" practicality is involved here too.
But I'm only "tutored" in the Tarot, my wife is formally "taught"! :cool:

@Robert Ramsay,
Actually, as I said in the OP I pulled from the Majors only, so 1 in 22. Not something "statisticians" would salivate over, but the Message was Everything that Mattered to Me! It's one of those special "synchronistic" occurrences only the "querent" could Love! :love:
