Things I wish I knew about tarot when starting

(Feel free to correct or add to this!)

•Reversals aren’t opposites. While some read them that way, many cards mean similar things reversed.

•Court cards don’t have to mean a person. Queens can mean creation, Kings can mean athourity, pages can be messages, and knights can be travel.

•Readings are more accurate when you do them for yourself.

•When a card falls out when you are shuffling, that card is very important. Don’t ignore it.

•Cards influence other cards more than you may think.

•It’s ok if you’re interpretations of cards are different than most. Everyone reads differently.

•Start out with small spreads.

•Color is very important.
