What is Tarot?
Tarot is an ancient divination tool that uses a deck of 78 cards to provide insights and guidance. Each card holds a unique meaning and can reveal aspects of your past, present, and future.
Choosing Your Tarot Deck
Selecting a tarot deck is a personal and intuitive process. The Rider-Waite deck is a popular choice for beginners due to its clear imagery and symbolism. However, choose a deck that resonates with you and your energy.
Understanding the Major and Minor Arcana
- Major Arcana: These 22 cards represent significant life events and spiritual lessons. Examples include The Fool, The Magician, and The World.
- Minor Arcana: Comprising 56 cards, these are divided into four suits: Wands, Cups, Swords, and Pentacles. They reflect everyday events and situations.
How to Read Tarot Cards
- Set Your Intention: Before a reading, take a moment to center yourself and set a clear intention or question.
- Shuffle the Cards: Shuffle the deck while focusing on your question.
- Draw the Cards: Select the cards that you feel drawn to. Lay them out in a spread, such as the three-card spread (Past, Present, Future).
- Interpret the Cards: Use a guidebook or your intuition to interpret the meanings of the cards. Consider how they relate to your question and each other.
Practice and Patience
Tarot reading is a skill that improves with practice and patience. Keep a journal of your readings to track your progress and deepen your understanding.
