Q: Can I do a tarot reading on myself?

Q: What are the meanings of the Major Arcana cards?
A: The Major Arcana cards represent significant life events and spiritual lessons. Each card, from The Fool to The World, carries a unique meaning that offers deep insights during a reading.
Q: What should I do if I accidentally shuffle the cards incorrectly?
A: If you accidentally shuffle the cards in a way that feels "off," don't worry. Some readers believe this is just part of the process and can add a unique element to the reading. Others might prefer to reshuffle until the deck feels right in their hands.
Q: What if I draw a 'bad' tarot card?
A: It's important to remember that no tarot card is inherently "bad." Cards like The Tower or The Devil might seem negative at first, but they often indicate opportunities for growth, change, or breaking free from limiting situations.
Q: Why do I feel anxious before a tarot reading?
A: It's common to feel anxious before a tarot reading, especially if you're worried about what the cards might reveal. This anxiety often stems from a fear of the unknown or concerns about facing difficult truths. Taking deep breaths and grounding yourself before the reading can help ease these feelings.
Q: How can I trust the tarot reading I receive?
A: Trusting a tarot reading comes from your connection to the cards and the reader. If you're doing a self-reading, focus on your intuition and be open to the messages. With another reader, ensure you feel comfortable and trust their experience and approach.
Q: Can the tarot predict my future accurately?
A: Tarot is not about predicting a fixed future but rather about offering insights into potential outcomes based on current energies and situations. It helps you make informed decisions rather than dictating a set path.
Q: What if my desires don't align with the tarot reading?
A: If a tarot reading doesn't align with your desires, it might be highlighting areas where growth or change is needed. Consider the reading as a tool for reflection, helping you navigate your path rather than dictating it.
