How to find your rhythm with your Tarot Deck
Happy new year to everyone! I’m glad to be sharing this tip and I waited because I’m sure a lot of people got new decks for the holidays.
Tarot has a ridiculous amount of variation in the deck style and variables for the meanings. Some are pip decks, some marssaille some rider Waite smith, and each book that comes with the meanings is slightly different.
When you get a new deck, I always do an intro spread just to get a little familiar with it. But then begins the fun.
Do a Daily pull, first thing in the morning, and if you don’t have time to interpret, take a picture of it. Just ask “What does my day have in store?” Write down your first impression of the card, and every once in a while look at the picture throughout the day.
At the end of the day, compare your first impression, the text book meaning and think about your day. This exercise helps you figure out where on the spectrum your readings are.
Was it kinda vague, was it about someone else, was it closer in meaning to your interpretation, or the book, was it super literal and you found yourself naked collecting water at a stream near a fallen building?
Just do this for a week, even if you’re old hat and in a rut. It can help revitalize your passion, recalibrate your intuition, and make you more confident in your readings by giving context to these elusive cards.
🦇Cheers, Barberwitch
