Is this influence minor or major or tangental to daily life?  Or what lesson does this influence have to teach?Card 3 (What is an appropriate response.) Is this influence something to be listened to, fought against, ignored, learned to live with?Think about how the cards relate to each other.Rules:Strictly text book card meanings only.

Welcome to the Newbie Tarot Exchange for October 2026!  Welcome to October wherein I am your host for this month’s exchange. This is your sign-up thread and the place to ask questions   The circle is open to readers of all experience levels, with an emphasis on providing a welcoming space for those who are new to tarot, new to reading for others, or just new to working with a particular deck. If you haven't taken part in a circle before, here's how it goes: Read the guidelines before signing up below. You'll be paired with a partner, and you'll each do a reading for one another. Then you'll leave detailed feedback on the reading you received. It's a great way to practice in a friendly environment. For this exchange, we’ll practise looking beneath what someone says or shows outwardly and about exploring the thoughts, feelings, and influences that may be operating underneath.The complete spread uses five cards, but you only need to read the first three cards at minimum. If both you and your exchange partner are comfortable going deeper, you can complete the full five-card spread.The Spread (as created by sibyltarotunlimited @Instagram)--2------------------1----4-----5------3----------------What they are telling you — What are they communicating or showing you outwardly? How are they presenting their feelings or intentions?What they are really thinking — What thoughts, considerations, or concerns may be going through their mind that they are not necessarily expressing?How they feel deep down — What are their underlying emotional feelings toward you?Minimum reading ends here.If both partners are comfortable continuing, add:External influences — What outside circumstances, people, responsibilities, fears, or other factors may be influencing their thoughts, feelings, or behaviour?Outcome — Based on the present energies and circumstances, where is this connection or situation currently heading?How to do the exchangeThis is a focus based exchange. If you want to find about someone else, you may refer to him/her as X or any thing that you are comfortable withTry to read the cards as a connected story rather than five isolated meanings. In particular, notice whether Cards 1–3 agree or contradict one another. For example, does what the person is saying match what they appear to be thinking and feeling? Cards 4 and 5 can then help explain why there may be a difference and where the current dynamic could lead.As always, treat the reading as an interpretation of the cards rather than certainty about another person's private thoughts or feelings. The aim of the exercise is to practise combining cards, identifying layers within a relationship dynamic, and developing confidence in reading a spread. Important Dates:Sign-ups: OPENSign-ups close and partners posted: 8th OctoberReadings due by: Tuesday 22nd OctoberFeedback due by: Tuesday 30th October PLEASE NOTE: Taking part in this circle requires a commitment to interact with your partner... completing the initial discussion promptly to allow your partner plenty of time to do the reading, and posting your reading and feedback. Keeping in contact is essential. Life happens; if you find you absolutely can't complete it in the allotted time, please, DO NOT leave your partner hanging! Post in your thread or PM your partner and me to let us know what’s happening and the date you'll be able to post.  Guidelines:Please post here to let me know when your exchange is complete. This helps me monitoring all the readings.Whoever sees the partner list first, please post your exchange thread promptly, and PM your partner with the link. (The thread's subject should include Newbies Circle, month + year, and both usernames). Reader has the final choice of which tarot deck they read with. It must be a tarot deck -- no oracles, cartomancy, lenormands or kippers.Feedback should be as detailed as the reading you received. If you don't understand something your partner said, you're encouraged to ask them a friendly question; this is very much a learning circle! If you don't know what sort of feedback to leave, take a look first at some completed exchanges in this part of the forum. General readings (in which your partner gives you no particular direction) are fine if you both agree. As a reader, if you'd like a focus, feel free to ask your partner to give you an area of their life to read about (work, family, etc.). There's a spread of the month, but if you and your partner agree, you can use an alternate spread of similar complexity and around the same amount of cards. You won't be partnered in another Newbies Circle until you complete any past circle exchanges in which you didn't respond to your partner. Please make sure all your previous circle obligations are complete, that is readings and feedback, before signing up this month. If it becomes necessary, circle hosts reserve the right to temporarily ban participants from the circle.If you get stuck doing your reading, you are welcome to look up any meanings that help you. Why not discuss any issues with your partner in the thread? They might be able to provide you with some advice or a different idea on the cards. Please don't post in other people's reading threads.Please be polite and encouraging to your partners.  Some folks are probably just starting on their learning curve, especially here in Newbies, and your words could make or break their journey in Tarot. A friendly place to practice is what Newbies is all about!PartnersToreador - pacificwatersMuninnMissinHuginn - JoyousGirl 

Hello and welcome to the October Lenormand reading exchange  This is a beginner-friendly reading exchange, all levels are welcome 🤗 The schedule for this month is as follows:1 October: Sign-ups open closed8 October: Sign-ups closed & Partners assigned23 October: Readings due31 October: Feedback due *** Important Guidelines ***1. Once partners are assigned, whoever sees this first should create a thread for them and their partner. The title should be formatted as "Lenormand Reading Circle - October 2026 - (partner name) & (partner name)". Please post a link to the thread here for future reference. 2. Full feedback is required for all readings. You will not be allowed to sign up for future circles until your feedback is completed. 3. Please specify which keywords you are using to inform your reading. For example: FOX (cunning, clever) + DOG (friend, companion) + CLOVER (a little luck). This is to help your partner understand how you have interpreted the cards, and also for your own future reference. 4. Partners should have a short discussion before completing their readings:To advise whether they wish to be represented by the Lady, the Gentleman, or a different card. This is relevant IF any of such a card shows up. 5. Lenormand works best when answering a specific question. Here are some suggested questions if you're stuck:What will happen to me this week?What news will I receive this week?How can I prepare for (event)?How can I best respond to (situation)? It is important to ask anything that we can validate, for example:Will X contact me within a week?How do my job prospects look this week? 6. So that timely feedback can be provided, please keep the timeframe of all questions within one week. 7. Please note that reversals should not be used as this is not a standard Lenormand technique. 8. This exchange is for Lenormand readers of all levels. As such, some readers will be able to offer a more detailed reading than others, making use of a range of different techniques to arrive at their interpretation. In the interests of reciprocity, we ask that you provide feedback that is roughly as long and as detailed as the reading you have received. 9. Life happens to all of us - if something comes up and you aren't able to complete your reading and/or feedback within the timeframe, please PM your partner and the circle hosts to advise. Please also do this if you find you are unable to participate at all, so that the circle hosts can arrange a new partner for the person you were paired with. The ExerciseThis month we would like to expand it a bit. And some have already done it, which is fabulous! We are still doing a 3x3 card reading using a 36-card Lenormand deck. There are different ways to read a box spread. Below you will find some inspirations. 1. The cards can be laid out and read like this:1 2 34 5 67 8 9First read the corners, 1+9 and 3+7. That's the boundaries of the spread - and the situation.Then read inner diamond, 2+4+5+6+8, for what will happen. 2. SignificatorThis can be interesting if your partner has a very specific question, like what will happen with my love life. You first pre-select the center card, which in this case would be the heart and laid in the middle:2 3 45 1 67 8 9You can now read it like in exercise #1 and/or add additional like knighting and mirroring - if you are familiar with those techniques. 3. Past / Present / FutureSame layout but you assign either the rows or columns to Past / Present / Future. Row 1 / column 1 = PastRow 2 / column 2 = PresentRow 3 / column 3 = FutureIt is important you decide before you start if you want to use the columns or rows. Number 3 can be added and combined to both layouts, of course. It is best to discuss with your partner first which layout you would like to use. It also depends on the question you are reading on.Each reader can use whatever method they prefer. That means your partner does not need to choose the same option. 4. A 5 card or 7 Card line.This is a line reading where you read in pairs on a question and the central card becomes important. Please discuss with your partner if you want to select this reading, and you have the same number of cards in the reading. Looking forwards to an exciting October! With thanks from your hosts,Joy & DanielJUK

You can read all about our 5th birthday in the announcement over here   But today is 5 years since we begun on the 2nd of July 2017 🥳🎉   This is a place to post anything you want about our birthday and the forum and community   There is a slice of virtual cake for everyone 🎂  

I thought it was interesting that in the newly released seasons of Orange is the new Black and GLOW, that the main characters in each show have an episode where they get a tarot reading.     

What are your favorite Tarot apps, or at least the ones that you always use? What did you like about it, and how was it?

Link to the original video: And here is a video transcript from her blog: https://ethony.com/5-signs-that-you-are-not-ready-to-go-pro-as-a-tarot-reader/  Ethony recently released this video where she talks about what things she feels signals that a person is not ready to go pro as a tarot reader. (For those who do not know of Ethony, she is a very accomplished professional tarot reader and Youtuber who is also running the Tarot Readers Academy.)    I would very much like to hear what everyone here thinks about this and what your experiences are (it doesn't matter if you've never worked professionally, your thoughts and opinions are just as welcome no matter your circumstances). This video does not contain anything particularly controversial so I am not expecting a wild debate of some sort, just some nourishing discussions :)  Anyways, here are some short notes from her video: (but please watch the whole thing or read her blog post to get a more complete understanding of what she is saying).  5 signs that you are not ready to go pro:  1. You can't deliver hard news. She mentions that people rarely go to tarot readers when things are going great in their life and that hard topics is quite common, in her opinion. That people often come when they are at crossroads in their lives and when they need healing. She also says that you will most probably have to tell people things they do not want to hear and that might crush their hopes about something (like their hopes for a romantic relationship). She also gives some tips on how to practice and prepare yourself for performing tough readings and delivering hard news. She also thinks it is important to think about what types of readings you will take on (like - will you predict physical deaths or talk about serious health issues).   2. You are scared to talk about money. She says that you need to be okay to talk about money, about your rates and so on.   3. You find yourself judging your clients. She says that at one point you are going to hear anything and everything as a tarot reader, and that some of these things will trigger you. Maybe a person is doing something you would never do or have different political views than you. So you would have to be able to put your own personal biases and judgments aside.   4. You have to look up the card meanings in books. Im just gonna quote her on this: "Imagine going to see a doctor and seeing them pull out a book or jumping on WebMD to look for the symptoms you’ve described. Or, turning up to see a lawyer and they don’t know the basics of law. You would not be very happy. Tarot readers are no different. I hear feedback from lots of people that readers in paid readings have brought out books to look things up or have copied and pasted things from websites in email readings. It’s unprofessional. I have a mountain of Tarot books that I still love to read but never while giving a Tarot reading since I went pro. If you are still looking in books or online for the meaning of the cards DURING a session, you still have your training wheels on and it’s time to study more and go pro later."   5. You have no real track record. People need to know that you are trustworthy. And she gives the following tips: "Give lots of free readings. Be reliable. Do what you say you are doing to do when you say you are going to do it. Ask for feedback. Look for ways to improve. Keep learning."  So - what do you guys think? Is this in line with your beliefs and experiences?

This thread can be seen as an extension of the lovely Creative Tarot Circle that @stephanelli has put together for us.   Here we will however not limit ourselves to things that are tarot related or tarot inspired. Any creative project is welcome and pictures are particularly encouraged 😀.    Think of this thread as a huge  kitchen table where we can hang out, work on our projects and chatter about creative stuff. Whether you are painting, knitting, crafting jewelry, writing poems or cooking a delicious meal at the stove - please share!    I aim to share some of my own projects as soon as I have some time to take pictures in daylight. But I wanted to get this thread going so you all can start talking and sharing your projects and your ideas. And if you have purchased some new craft supplies then please let us see... 😛❤️

1. What's the difference between Lenormand and other divination systems? There are a few key differences. Lenormand cards are read in a much more literal way than other systems. Each card has a number of set meanings, which do not change based on the question being asked. Cards are always read in combinations with each other, not individually as one would do in a tarot or other oracle card reading. The order of the cards can also change the interpretation. It is advised to think of reading a 'string' of Lenormand cards as a sentence, with each card being a word or short phrase within that sentence. Answers from the Lenormand are generally more direct and to the point than other systems. Most importantly: simply using a Lenormand deck isn't reading Lenormand - a Lenormand reading follows the Lenormand method.   2. How should I learn the Lenormand card meanings? First and foremost, choose one set of interpretations, and stick to it until you are very fluent with those interpretations, before trying to learn any others. More is not better when starting out with Lenormand, and over-complicating things often causes a lot of confusion and frustration. Learn the card meanings first individually, and then start playing and practising with pairs of cards, followed by triplets. This will give you a good starting foundation.   3. Which set of interpretations should I learn, and where can I learn them? These are often referred to elsewhere as "traditions" or "schools" associated with a geographic region. EG "French school", "German school", etc. This terminology is somewhat misleading, since sets of interpretations can be traced to individual authors, none of whom are representative of their entire country.  It is strongly recommended to choose ONE set of interpretations when first starting out with Lenormand, and stick with this for some time. The top recommended sources for beginners (written in English) are: 'Lenormand Thirty-Six Cards: An Introduction to the Petit Lenormand' by Andy Boroveshengra 'The Essential Lenormand' by Rana George Hexe Claire's YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLXpxAm1MRsk-2JkiAnz60hJXqPUgc04d7 The Treppner Lenormand course (now available for free): https://www.spirisfeed.com/lana-download/lenormand-course/   There are many, many other sources of information about Lenormand available, however the resources above are tried, tested and recommended by many readers. Again - stick to one source to begin with.   4. Why are there tiny pictures of playing cards superimposed on some Lenormand decks? Lenormand divination developed from fortune-telling using a Piquet deck - a standard playing card deck with 2's-5's removed, which leaves a total of 36 cards. The card inserts shown on many Lenormand decks correspond with this deck. As well as providing information from the suit (see question 5), they can also help to identify further 'people' cards - i.e. the Jacks, Queens, and Kings.   5. Is there any significance to the suits of the playing cards? Yes! However, these are not interpreted in the same way as they are in popular playing-card cartomancy. This is because they are based on the historic German playing card suits. Very briefly, the suits can be understood as follows (historic German in brackets): Clubs (Acorns)  = Hardship and difficulties Diamonds (Bells) = Risk, changeable luck, gains and losses Hearts = Love, home life, and the paternal line Spades (Leaves) = Growth, happiness, youth, and the maternal line   6. Which Lenormand decks are recommended for beginners? Reproductions of older decks which are ideal for beginners are: Dondorf Brepol's (Carta Mundi) Piatnik Blue Owl Newer decks which are ideal for beginners are: Rana George Lenormand The Maybe Lenormand Green Glyphs Lenormand   The newer decks listed all contain additional cards which can be added to/substituted in the deck, for example additional Lady/Gentleman cards to accommodate readings for same-sex couples. That being said, the standard 36-card deck can also be used by choosing alternative cards (for example, using the Rider to represent another Gentleman).   It's recommended to choose a deck which is poker-sized or smaller, to help keep things manageable once you start laying out the Grand Tableau.   7. Why has someone said my interpretation is "wrong"? It is important to understand that Lenormand has a much tighter set of accepted interpretations for each card, when compared with other systems of divination. Lenormand does not have correspondences with other traditions such as astrology, Qabalah, numerology, etc. (as often seen with tarot decks in particular) - it is a complete system in its own right. There are variations between "sets" of accepted interpretations (see questions 2 & 3), so it is good practise to always state which "set" is being discussed/referred to, preferably by citing your source wherever possible. This will often clear up any miscommunication. After ensuring everyone is on the same page, it should always be kept in mind that some Lenormand readers are considerably more experienced and practised within the system than others. If another reader is advising that an interpretation is "wrong", and gives an explanation of why this is the case, this should be taken as a learning opportunity and not a personal attack. Likewise, if you are offering this type of critique, be mindful that newbies will make many mistakes in their interpretations to begin with. TT&M is first and foremost a learning forum, and we expect and encourage openness and civility on all sides.       With many thanks to @katrinka for her contribution to this FAQ.

I would like everyone's help in compiling this list. I would love for us to gather all the best links in one place so that those who are new to tarot or who wish to do a deep dive into a specific topic, can easily find a great starting point.

Hi friends! Just wanted to make a quickie notice. Before assisting with a reading interpretation, double check that it's: (in order of importance) 1. In the Personal Tarot Readings section (feel free to report it if it isn't!) 2, The poster has interpreted all the cards themselves. 3. If the first two don't apply, please don't help with the reading quite yet!   We appreciate our talented readers helping one another out, but in order to protect your time and abilities, we have these rules in place. 🙂 We are not a site for free readings, and we want to keep our integrity as a learning community.   If you are new to TT&M, welcome!  The Personal Readings section opens up when you hit 5 posts!  You can start by posting an introduction, make some new friends, and soon enough you'll be able to find all you need.     I hope you all are staying safe and having a wonderful holiday!

I have become aware recently of how symetrical, left to right, all the minor arcana cards are in this deck. This is nagging at me. Is this incidental?
Does this say something.
 Ps. The symetry seems at odds as well with card meanings, as ofton as not;
for example the 7 of cups, but not the 4 of wands.

I looked through this forum to see if I could find a topic like this but didn't see one. I just thought it might be fun to share what decks we're reaching for lately. What do you keep returning to and why? What deck is drawing your attention right now? Do you think there's a reason?
 
I've been drawn to the This Might Hurt tarot pretty steadily since I received it (last fall) and that's still true now. But I could see how recent events might cause people to reach for something new or familiar or just change things up! So I'm curious. 🙂
 
(I'm new so please let me know if this isn't the right spot for this.)

I remember on Aeclectic we had a thread where people could post photos of birds, flowers, trees, etc. that they saw on walks in their neighborhood. Perhaps we could start a new one? Before the storm cells came through last Sunday, it had gotten very dry here. I found this fellow trying to drink the dribbles from my sprinkler (first picture taken through a screen):     The rain has caused many flowers to start blooming, like these purple coneflowers:

Hey Tarot friends! 
 
I have been working directly with quite a few tarot deck makers to organize this event and we are incredibly excited to announce it! Initially it was meant to be an event just for a Tarot Discord server I admin, but because the prize support for this challenge became SO good, I wanted to make it available to other Tarot communities too so these indie deck makers can hopefully get the exposure I think they deserve. Please review the full Rules, Details, and Prizes  

Seems to be the best place to post this... I can't find an Altar thread anywhere
(please post your Altar pics - or chat on about them here).
Happy Imbolc - Blue-Blood Moon!
May the spirits of inspiration forever keep your pace.

This year, we in the TT&M family will be creating our very own tarot deck - and we want all of you to participate!!

If so, we would love to hear from you! 😀 Even those of you that are still active in the mentoring program, please give us your thoughts!    Take some time to consider the questions below, then send a PM to me (Raggydoll). Title it either “mentor” or “student” so that I know what applies to you. (If you have experienced both positions then please separate your reply into mentor and student). We invite you to write as freely and as honestly as you feel comfortable to.    Please know, your answers will never be shared outside of the Staff room, and I will compile all the answers as either “mentor” or “student” so your username is not going to be tied to your reply. Our aim is to learn from past experiences and to make improvements for the future, whether the program remains as it is or whether we turn it into something different. Your opinion matters! If you have ideas on things that we could change or begin to implement, then we want to hear it!   1. What did you appreciate the most as a mentor/student? 2. What would you have liked to see even more of?  3. What would you have liked to be done differently? 4. Was there anything you didn’t like? Something that you didn’t think was working or that you would have liked to see less of? 5. Do you have any ideas on things that could make our mentoring program even better? Something you would have loved to see?
