When is the Best Time to get a Tarot Card Reading

I get it. Life happens. Sometimes so suddenly, that you can’t even catch a breath. It is at times like these that you really want some divine guidance. We reach out to the cards and try to get or give ourselves a Tarot Card Reading.

However, when time goes by, we realize that the reading was quite off the mark. That is when we begin to wonder. Is there something wrong with the way the cards work? Or maybe the reader isn’t all that great?

I’m here to tell you to explore another possibility: perhaps your energy wasn’t all that settled for you to get a reading. Perhaps, it just wasn’t the right time to get a Tarot Card Reading. Yet.

What Happens When You Get a Tarot Card Reading

There’s a whole lot of stuff that happens on the energetic plane when you get a Tarot Card Reading. The focus being the energetic plane. It is your energy that directs the way the cards show up in the reading — regardless of who picked the cards, you or the Tarot Card Reader. The Tarot Card Reader tunes into your energy and it is that energy which guides her to pull a specific card for you. In a sense, the Tarot Card Reader is merely interpreting the energy that you are radiating.

So when you are in an emotionally charged up situation, chances are that the reading will reflect your desires and energies at that time.

Experiment With This: See for Yourself

Try it for yourself, just as an experiment.

When you are angry or upset with something, pull a card asking for guidance and make a note of it. Give yourself a few hours or days, depending on what you are upset about, and then pull a card for guidance. You’ll see for yourself the difference in the energies reflected by the cards!

As another experiment, try pulling a ‘more information’ or ‘guidance’ card when you are extremely happy about something. Then, a few days later, when you aren’t feeling so very happy-giddy, pull another card. Again, you’ll see a difference in the energies reflected by the cards.

You’ll essentially see a marked difference in the way the cards reflect your energy, regardless of the fact that you were sad or happy.

So When Is a Good Time to Get a Tarot Card Reading?

The best time to get a reading is when you are calm, when your energies are calm, and you are mentally and emotionally open to receiving the divine guidance that is meant for you.

This also means that you need to be open to hearing things that you may not really want to hear, or hope to hear as well. This is the kind of advice that may be hard to hear — but deep down, you know it is the right advice, isn’t it?

I understand if you may not be ready to implement that advice just yet — that is your personal choice. But the Universe wants you to know the answer to the question you asked — pay attention to what it has to say.

You need to really and truly keep your personal desires and interests out of the way. Those are bound to flow through your energy field and clog up your energy forces, thus confusing many things in the reading.

So, What Should I Do???

I get it — you need guidance when you are going through a tough time, like a break-up, or a lay off from a job, or a sudden circumstance that shook you to the core. However, those are the times when you are confused and your energy field is massively clouded. Things are unclear. Looking at the Universe to show you the way when your feet aren’t even firmly on the ground, is, well, not a good idea. You know that…

Buuutttt…

You can still find a calm space of being, where you are ok with not really knowing what to do and where you are going. It is a sense of being “in the moment“, where you are ready to receive what the Universe has to offer you.

You can still have a desirable scenario that you may want to pursue, but make sure that that desire doesn’t overwhelm you to a point where you can’t remain open other options.

I’ll admit, it takes a bit of doing to get to that point. From personal experience, I can vouch that can be very, very hard to get in that space. However, I feel that learning how to do that is part of ‘growing up’, and that each of us needs to be able to learn how to get into that frame of mind – heart – energy.

I also know for a fact that meditation and/or prayer help a lot in this process — they serve as a sort of a ritual for focus on peace and calmness. You can have a daily meditation practice, which comes in handy when these type of circumstances show up. But, even if you don’t have one right now, I urge you to find a quiet spot and try.

P.S. If you feel the need to cry, then, by all means, let it out. And after you’re done, use your self-care rituals to find a moment to tune into the calm space.

Finally, when you are ready to listen to what the Universe has to tell you, really ready to pay attention to what’s going on, then, by all means, reach out for the cards, or book a Tarot Card Reading, whatever works! ?

At such a point, I reckon, it is absolutely the right time to get a Tarot Card Reading!

Your Thoughts…

What have your experiences been like — either as someone who got a reading while in an emotional space, or as someone who gave a reading to someone who was in an emotional space.

Does / Did the emotional energy of the person who is getting the reading make a difference in the way the readings unfolded, or the guidance that came through?
