People ask me what I do when I read a tarot card. First of all, it's interesting that I have been asked that. I thought I'd write it down. Anyone can "read" the cards and understand the messages if they tune in and listen.
- I shuffle the cards three times. If I'm drawing a card for myself, I simply ask Spirit what messages she has for me this day. If I'm drawing for someone else, I draw that person's energy in by thinking about them, asking them to help me pass along positive messages, etc.
- When I feel their energy, I cut the cards.
- I spread them in my hand and draw one from the middle.
- I snap a picture of it on my phone for the client.
- I read the descriptions in the Instant Tarot Reader, maybe jot down some notes.
- I think on it for a few minutes, make tea, go to the bathroom...
- I write up my interpretation and send it with photo to the client.
- What I've learned:
- it's all about tapping into the client's energy; I don't pull the card; they do.
- I read best in the early morning.
- my mood/state of mind does not affect the reading, as I'd feared
- my one client has been amazing, giving me feedback, and I've learned that I'm often on point. She uses each one-card reading to set her intention for the upcoming week.
That's pretty much it. Simple. Anyone can do it. Make it your own -- you don't have to do it my way. Find a way that feels good to you, one that lets you relax and receive the messages. Until next time, peace.
