Preparations

Preparations for a tarot reading can vary depending on the individual practitioner’s personal preferences and beliefs. Here is a general guide on how to prepare for a tarot reading, but remember, there is no right or wrong way – the most important thing is that you feel comfortable and focused during the reading.

Create a Calm and Harmonious Environment

Make sure you have a place where you can concentrate and feel relaxed. It could be a chair at a table, a cushion on the floor, or another comfortable spot. Ensure the area is free from distractions, such as mobile phones and loud noises.

Clear Your Mind

Before you start the tarot reading, it’s important to be mentally focused and relaxed. You can meditate, take a few deep breaths, or use any other relaxation technique that works for you.

Clear and Charge Your Tarot Cards

It’s important to clear your tarot cards of any negative energy they may have accumulated. You can do this by lightly tapping the cards, shuffling them thoroughly, or holding them over smoke from incense. You can also visualize white or golden light flowing through the cards to clear and charge them with positive energy.

Ask a Question or Focus on an Area of Your Life

Before you start the tarot reading, it’s good to have a clear question or an area of your life you want to explore. This helps you focus your energy and intentions during the reading.
Shuffle the cards: Shuffle the tarot cards while keeping your question or focus in mind. You can shuffle the cards in the way that feels most natural to you. There is no right or wrong way to do this, as long as you feel the cards are thoroughly mixed.

Choose a Spread

Depending on your question and situation, you can choose a simple or more complex spread. For a quick and easy reading, you can do a 1-card or 3-card spread, while more complex questions may require a larger spread, such as the Celtic Cross or the Horseshoe.
