Before your first reading, spend a few minutes holding the deck and flipping through the cards to familiarize yourself with Elisabeth Alba's artwork and the owl characters you'll be working with. This helps you build a personal connection with the deck before you begin.

Shuffling the deck: Choose whichever shuffling method feels comfortable. An overhand shuffle works well for larger decks — simply transfer small packets of cards from one hand to the other repeatedly until the deck feels ready. A riffle shuffle (bending and interleaving two halves together) is another popular option. You can also cut the deck into several piles and reassemble them in a different order. There is no single correct method — use what works for you.

Single-card daily draw: Each morning, shuffle the deck while thinking about your day ahead, then draw one card. Use the companion guide by Pamela Chen to read the card's meaning, then consider how it might apply to what you're facing that day. This is one of the most effective ways to build familiarity with the deck over time.

Three-card spread: Shuffle the deck and draw three cards, placing them left to right. Assign the first card to the past (what has led to the current situation), the second to the present (what is happening now), and the third to the future (where things are heading or what to consider next). This spread works well for general guidance or when you have a specific question in mind.

Journaling tip: Keep a dedicated notebook for your tarot practice. After each reading, write down the cards you pulled, your initial reaction to the imagery, and any thoughts or feelings that came up. Reviewing past entries helps you track patterns and see how readings have played out over time.

Beginner tip: Use the companion guidebook as a starting point, but pay attention to your first instinct when you look at a card. The owl imagery in this deck is expressive and detailed — notice what stands out to you visually before turning to the written meanings. Your personal response to a card is always valid and often just as useful as the traditional interpretation.

Storage tip: Store your cards in the original box or a fabric pouch to keep them protected from dust, humidity, and everyday wear. Keeping them in a consistent location also makes it easier to build a regular practice.
