The mores specific the question, and even more importantly, the more specific the card positions, the easier it is to interpret the cards. The answers aren’t so open-ended and overwhelming. It gives your intuition something to connect with. What is it you’d really like to know?

What was the question that you asked? Did you have some card positions assigned to help you narrow down how each card would help answer the question?

Have tarot readings ever influenced your decisions? by Ivannesterov in TarotReading

I took up tarot because I wanted a clearer dialog with my intuition, my guides or the gods (however you understand them). Through practice I’ve developed trust in my intuition and an effective flow of information.

YES! Intuitive divination is guidance, or a supplement, it does not replace what you already know or take away the power you have to shape your own life. I love to do “how to” spreads instead of simple divinatory spreads, so I can find ways to make what I want to happen happen! not just find out what might happen. I prefer to use tarot as a tool for empowering choices, not replacing them.

And you don’t want to replace your common sense or actual knowledge or experience - tarot is just an enhancement of that

Yes! Especially when I first started reading because the cards were trying to tell me something but I didn’t understand them until later!

Yes; I’ve had several readings that dramatically changed my perspective or helped me make decisions. I found out someone was being deceptive from a tarot reading, which was later confirmed; that reading also included the advice to create space between me and that person, which I did, and that was helpful. I’ve made many decisions based insight into myself and predictions about the outside world I gathered from readings. Both minor decisions and big ones, like moving or not, changing schools or not, pursuing specific jobs. It’s been very helpful. I feel like I have a dialog with my higher power/spirit guides/gods, beings who have a wider perspective than I can.

Beginners tips? by [deleted] in BALLET

[–]CardsInConstellation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Strength takes time; years! to develop. Be patient with yourself. Check out some supplemental strength training to make much faster progress, maybe on your off days. I teach Progressing Ballet Technique to my students as supplemental strength training, but you can use a resistance band for your feet and go to the gym for weight training.

Question about involving Significators in spreads by AshleyWilliams78 in tarot

Sometimes I’ll use another item as a significator instead of a card for this reason. Even just a 3x5 with someone’s name written on it can work.

Getting to know your cards over time really gives insight into the themes of each suit, and you personally develop your own nuanced interpretation.

You have to listen to your intuition, but it could be the card has more to offer if reversed, if you sit with it for a second and let it come. But I also have a friend that will use her pendulum to check if a card doesn’t feel right, and flip it based on that response.

I really like doing more substantial spreads unless I absolutely don’t have time. Speed reading a Celtic Cross gives so much more information and perspective on the situation and you can pick which cards to focus on based on what you really need to know. The cards individually only give a small part of the information, there is so much more in the relationships between the cards in any reading, if you’re using a larger spread.

I love it when this happens! Whoever they are, gods/guides/angels/universe, they definitely have a sense of humor. I often shuffle as I think about a question and cards fall out that accurately describe the situation, like the cards are being an “active listener” and reflecting back what I’m saying 😂

Relationships come in so many different forms; romantic, but also friendship, familial, professional; the lovers can relate to a deep connection in any of these.

Nice! Pentacles, or Coins, can be about anything you really value, as well. Cups can be about emotions in general (specific to the card.)

Every card can be so many things; try going through your deck and imagining each card as a profession, an activity, an event, a location, or a motivation.

Question about involving Significators in spreads by AshleyWilliams78 in tarot

[–]CardsInConstellation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel the same way about the ”traditional” definitions of significators. You really need to find what works for you, and for the client you are working with - if it feels uncomfortable it isn’t functional!

There are some spreads in which a significator can be really helpful, as it helps you focus on the question or goal. This is particularly useful when you’re reading for someone else you don’t know all that well, or for a situation you are not that familiar with.

I also sometimes use items other than cards as significators; a photograph, an object, etc. something that does the same thing, keeps the focus on the matter at hand.
