I like how you mentioned in your video that a good tarot card reader should help you feel at ease. It is important to consider this to make sure you get accurate readings and get what you need from the reading. Personally, I would want to compare several tarot providers before choosing one.
thankyou for this wonderful sharing as you do throughout your website. I can remember my very early years and my grandmother, my aunt and I would go periodically into Manhattan to a lady who had a prayer altar and candles. she would say a prayer aloud and then would shuffle the cards and read them and interpret. She was Spanish and the cards were like regular playing cards, but I understood, especially as I was older and started reading about Tarot myself, that the signed meanings had equal weight between numerical, pictorial,and spirituality as part of the tools. I Had been needing to start studying them again, so I
cannot wait until you start an e-class :). The only thing I felt strongly about when I was practicing with them was having a strong preference for all natural lighting, albeit candles, fireplace light, etc. I also found burning sustainable dried sage as a preferred incense. A quartz crystal with an inclusion of chlorite very cleaning and gentle. its a great for oneself, pets or others who may be seated with you and the cards.
Namaste.
Thanks for sharing this, Trina! That is interesting what you say about natural light – I love reading by candlelight – I find it really enhances my reading abilities and connection to spiritual energy. And thanks for the tip about quartz with chlorite – Now I have a new kind of crystal on my “to buy” list!
