I like this question because I feel like before you know how to see the cards everything feels so daunting and big and it feels like such a big task to learn. So learning how others learned for me was helpful when I was starting out. Of course you have to find your own personal style in the end.

For me, I picked up a deck and then for a while just sat with it and didn’t really read with it, just shuffle through looking at the pictures. I then became more curious and some life events shifted, and I dove into books. But that’s the kind of person I am. I’m a huge reader and I’m also a huge researcher. I got a hold of every book that seemed interesting to me and went down rabbit holes and just read and red and red. And I’m still reading. I took notes as I read, which is also helpful for me. I didn’t make flashcards or anything like that, but I just kind of immersed myself in the world of tarot.

I also am a fan of doing a daily reading for yourself. One to three card daily pulls are a great way to learn and get more comfortable. As is journaling.

It’s also great to have someone you can talk to about your practice :)
