Storytelling With Your Tarot Cards

Storytelling With Your Tarot Cards

This is the third article in my series ‘Connecting with your Tarot cards’, where we talk about telling stories with your Tarot cards.

Storytelling by itself is not something new or strange for Tarot card readers. Every reading by itself is a story for the reader to tell – especially when the person you are reading for is a complete stranger.

However, in the learning process, or when you are trying to connect with your Tarot cards in the first place, this storytelling exercise can not only enhance your reading skills, but will also help you connect with the cards on a much deeper level.

A Card A Day

A Card A Day

This is the second post in my series of articles that talk about how to go about ‘Connecting With Your Tarot Cards’.

In the previous post, we discussed how to use Journaling with your Tarot cards to get connected with your Tarot cards. Another process that you can use to get connected with your Tarot cards is called ‘A Card A Day’.

This process can also be used in conjunction with the Journaling process that we looked into in the previous article.

So, without any further ado, lets find out how we can connect with our Tarot cards using the ‘Card A Day’ method.

Journaling With Your Tarot Cards

Journaling With Your Tarot Cards

This series of articles was inspired by an interesting conversation I had with Krissy over here. Thanks Krissy! 🙂 Here is the first article in the series: ‘Connecting With Your Tarot Cards’.

Connecting with your Tarot card deck can often seem like a very difficult task, especially if it is your very first Tarot card deck. But this can even happen to experienced Tarot card readers who are trying to connect with a new Tarot card deck.

In this post, I am going to talk about the method that I like the best: Journaling.

Do Tarot Card Readings Really Work?

Every time I tell someone I am a Tarot card reader, the first question that they ask me is: “Do Tarot card readings really work?”

While this question does bring a lot of snarky, smart-alec-y answers to my mind, I normally try to explain some things to these people. I thought I might just share my thoughts over here…

Reading Tarot Cards for Total Strangers

As a professional Tarot card reader, I often end up reading Tarot cards for total strangers. And I am not ashamed to admit that these are the kind of readings I like to do best.

I find it somehow simpler to read Tarot cards compared to either reading for myself or for friends and relatives.

Lets talk about why it is easier to read Tarot cards for total strangers.

Reading Tarot Cards For Your Friends and Relatives

As you start reading Tarot cards, it is very natural that you start with your reading for your friends and relatives. Since you are close to them, reading for your friends and relatives (especially when you start out) can provide a supportive environment for you to hone your Tarot card reading skills.

However, it is just this closeness that can often cause doubts to spring up in your mind. Today, lets talk about the different issues that can crop up while reading Tarot cards for your friends and relatives, and how you can handle such scenarios.

The Druidcraft Tarot Deck

The Druidcraft Tarot Deck

The pictures in Tarot card decks are centered on a particular theme, and often follow either the Rider-Waite-Smith system or the Thoth system. The Druidcraft Tarot Deck is based on the themes of Wicca and Druidry and follows the Rider-Waite-Smith system. Created by Philip and Stephanie Carr-Gomm, and Will Worthington, these exquisite cards have been a favorite of mine ever since I got them many years ago. If you are curious, you can visit the deck’s website and even read an interview with the authors. There are some other interesting things on the site that you can also read about.

Meanwhile, lets just dive into the review of these really brilliant cards.

The Suit of Pentacles

The Suit of Pentacles

In the Tarot, the Suit of Pentacles represents the element of Earth. Earth is stable and steady – it is tangible and materialistic. Therefore, the Suit of Swords talks about situations in day-to-day life that deal with materialistic and practical matters.

So let us see how the energy of the Earth element manifests itself in this cycle of ten cards from the Suit of Pentacles.
