I think some people are more gifted than others. I dont think I will ever be able to read the tarot like other people do so. I have my limitations in this area. Will i get better or will i get to be as good as other people whose abilities are admirable? I dont know. All i know is that in the beginning the cards did not talk to me at all. Or they talked to me but i just didnt get it. Now it has been maybe six weeks since i started and i can say that i am getting a feeling. That is all i can tell you. I do the readings on myself on stuff that i would like to know or have intrigues about. Or on how events are going to unfold with regards to a specific situation.
What do you think? Answer below!
Greetings to you;
The deck you have is not the easiest to learn from. When I teach the tarot, I usually suggest the Waite Rider’s deck, simply do the colors, and symbology. To learn the tarot, first learn how to look after them, you are imprinting energy on them, and at the onset, I would not suggest that you allow others to touch them. Learn the major arcana first. You can do great readings just from them. I strongly recommend that you learn the basics of astrology and numerology, as both are entwined within the tarot strongly. Keep your cards wrapped in a natural fibre cloth, such as cotton, velvet, silk, leather, then I like to also have my wrapped cards in a wood or stone box. Remember, to learn to read the spreads from right to left not left to right. There are reasons for all of this, and sadly, I would need to write a book to cover it all. Also when you lay out your cards, have a cloth just for that, such as velvet, or cotton or leather, silk is acceptable, but not usually practical. Learn a 5 card spread, rather than the celtic cross (save that for later). Keep a journal of all your spreads. There are lots of good books out there, and you should read at least 3 or 5 of them, as each author will have a different slant. Eden Gray book is a classic, she had wrote 2 (I think maybe 3) another good author is Emily Peach, and Anthony Louis, all great writers. Of the 3 that I have mentioned, Emily is the best, as she goes very deep in the tree of life (which is something to check out).
Good Luck.
