Don't worry, you aren't doing anything wrong! Everyone has their own way of connecting to the fae- visualisation, mediation, dancing, singing, talking out loud, making up stories, free association with the symbolism on the card, researching the myths and folklore, going out into nature....probably tons of others that I don't know about! as Jessica says, 'each of us must discover our own best path'.
It took me a while, and I'm still learning... I personally approach from a mixture of analytical and intuitive...Here are some questions to get started:
Look at Taitin (Isn't she beautiful?)- what stands out about her to you? Her colour? Her face? her posture? her light?
What might this light mean? Does she want to 'shed light' on the deck for you? Does she make you feel 'light hearted?' or 'light headed?'
What about the colours? There is a contrast between her electic pink shade and her dark surroundings. why do you think this might this be?
Look at her face. i often think the Fae have different expressions depending on how you are feeling. how does she look to you? thoughtful? happy? Hopeful? And her posture. is she dancing? Hiding? flying from something?
Now close your eyes. You are in a forest with sunlight dappling the floor. Twigs break underfoot as you walk. all else is quiet, calm, peaceful. Then you see her- what does she look like? What does she do or say? ask her a question if you have one.
Open your eyes- does she look how you remembered? what is different, what is the same? what have you learnt from her?
This is just my approach to try if you wish. i'm sure you'll find your own way before long!
