Tarot cards have been used for centuries as a tool for divination and self-discovery. If you're new to Tarot, this guide will help you understand the basics and get started with your own readings.

 


What Are Tarot Cards?

A standard Tarot deck consists of 78 cards, each representing different aspects of life. They are divided into two main sections:
• The Major Arcana: 22 cards representing significant life events and spiritual lessons.
• The Minor Arcana: 56 cards divided into four suits (Wands, Cups, Swords, and Pentacles),


Choosing a Tarot Deck:

Select a deck that resonates with you. Popular options include the Rider-
Waite-Smith deck and the Thoth deck. Look for imagery and symbolism that you feel a connection with.


Basic Tarot Spreads:
• One-Card Pull: Draw a single card for daily guidance or to answer a specific question.
• Three-Card Spread: Draw three cards to represent the past, present, and future of a situation.
• Celtic Cross Spread: A more detailed spread that provides insights into various aspects of a question or issue.

 

How to Read Tarot Cards:
1. Shuffle the Deck: Clear your mind and focus on your question or intention while shuffling.
2. Draw the Cards: Lay out the cards in the chosen spread.
3. Interpret the Cards: Look at the imagery and symbolism on each card. Use a guidebook or online resources to understand the meanings.

 

Tips for Effective Readings:
• Trust your intuition and feelings about the cards.
