Hello everyone, I am new to Aecletic Tarot so I want to share my knowledge!
Recently I have been focusing my energies on doing readings in a way that comes across more professional and clear. I'm learned a few simple methods that can change your whole tarot practice.
Here we go!
1.) Make sure you keep your cards in excellent condition. Plan on having the same deck of tarot cards for the rest of your life. Your cards are your tools, treat them like a baby. Cover them in silk put them in a special wooden or metal box, and make sure you read your cards on a cloth. This is also very key to presentation, and how you come across, your cards shouldn't have any etches or tears on them, because this take away from the divine randomness of the client shuffling the cards. They will not want to pick the torn up card most of the time.
2.) Plan on doing reading for an hour, If you have to rush through a 30 min. reading it will not be beneficial. You can go deeper with an hour long session.
3.) Before you start the session make sure your querent has a specific question or questions in mind, this way the querent can't complain that you didn't answer their question. The tarot is a specific tool, if you ask the tarot general advice it will give you a general answer, if you ask it specific advice it will give you a specific answer. Have them hone down which area of life they want to focus on; Love, career, finance, spiritual path, relationships, then have them hone that question down even further. For example if it were a relationship question then a question like 'what's blocking me in my relationships' or 'how can I improve my relationships' would be specific and effective.
4.) When giving a readings, make sure you are speaking at a pace the person can follow. Guide people along with the story of the cards. Read each card individually and in the end do a overview of all the cards together.
This simple advice will take you long way and will lead you to being a highly effective and empowered tarot reader. I suggest you experiment with these methods and report back to me!
Sincerly,
Tito L Ferdinand
