How to Use Tarot Cards to Find Guidance in Life

Tarot cards have been used for centuries for guidance and divination. They can be used to help you make decisions, understand your past, and explore your future. If you are new to tarot, or if you are looking for a refresher, here are some tips on how to use tarot cards to find guidance in life:

 

  1. Choose a deck that resonates with you. There are many different tarot decks available, so take some time to browse and find one that feels right for you. Some people prefer decks with traditional artwork, while others prefer decks with more modern or abstract designs. A good place to start is the Classic Rider Waite deck for the simplicity of the visual symbolism.
  2. Learn the meanings of the cards. Each tarot card has a unique meaning. There are many different ways to learn the meanings of the cards, but one of the best ways is to simply start reading. As you read, pay attention to the cards that come up and the messages they seem to be sending you. I offer a course on how to read the cards here
  3. Ask a clear question. When you are ready to read your cards, take a moment to focus on your question. What do you need guidance on? Once you have your question, shuffle the cards and then draw three cards. Remember to assign each card postion a meaning like: this represents the path, this is me now, outcome etc.
  4. Interpret the cards. Look at the cards and see what messages they seem to be sending you. There is no right or wrong way to interpret the cards, so trust your intuition and go with what feels right.
  5. Take action. Once you have interpreted the cards, take some time to think about what they are telling you. What actions do you need to take? What changes do you need to make?

Tarot cards can be a powerful tool for guidance and self-discovery. If you are open to it, they can help you to understand your past, explore your future, and make decisions that are aligned with your highest good.

Here are some additional tips for using tarot cards for guidance:

  • Be patient. It takes time to learn how to use tarot cards effectively. Don't get discouraged if you don't get the hang of it right away. Just keep practising and you will eventually get the hang of it.
  • Trust your intuition. When you are reading your cards, trust your intuition. The cards are a tool to help you tap into your own inner wisdom.
  • Be open to change. Tarot cards can help you to see things from a new perspective. Be open to the possibility that the cards may be telling you something that you don't want to hear.

If you are looking for guidance in life, tarot cards can be a helpful tool. Just remember to be patient, trust your intuition, and be open to change.
