Introductions

Hello everyone! Brand spanking new member here and also a tarot beginner: bought a deck back in my teen years and never really moved beyond the LWB before I quickly lost interest, now I'm 29 and felt called back to it, but y'know, forreal this time. I'll have been studying for a year on November 10th, and I've really fallen in love with the never-ending learning process that comes with tarot -- I worry I annoy my friends sometimes because it's one of my favorite things to ramble about! I'm really glad to have found an active community of like-minded folks to mingle with and learn from, and I look forward to getting to know y'all!

Hello! I’m new to tarot, having only had my first reading this past year after some traumatic life events. I’ve done a lot of reading and recently purchased the New Mythic Tarot deck as this is what I had my reading with and it seemed very clear to me. I’ve just done a one card pull for the question “should I pursue this deeper exploration of spirituality/tarot” and pulled The Hierophant, which seems pretty definitive- and gave me goosebumps.

Hello all. I’ve been reading the Aeclectic Tarot forums since the beginning and I don’t know how it’s taken me this long to join the active one, but here we are haha!

Hi everyone. I've been gone a long time. I thought this forum disappeared. I'm really confused about what happened. All I know is I couldn't log in for ages, but I kept getting the occasional email notification from the Yes/No thread. Still confused. Can anyone shed a light on what happened? Is the forum active now? Anyway. My tarot skillz have advanced quite a bit. I also have had some very interesting third-eye-type experiences that have been both amazing and perplexing. Looking forward to being able to discuss these things with people.

Hi everyone!! A novice reader for the past 8 years, love tarot and have not been on forums for years, looking forward to reading again. Love and Light, Ara

Hello everyone! I’m brand new to this site, and very excited to begin learning and sharing with you all! It’s so lovely to find a forum where like-minded individuals can gather and share their thoughts. I’ve been passionate about tarot for 16 years now, I discovered it at 14 years old and use it almost daily. I find it as a constant source of comfort and guidance and many times in the past it has helped me understand a difficult situation better. I have only recently begun learning Lenormand, and I am excited to try my hand at something different. Although more direct and to the point with its answers, I’ve found Lenormand to be also more difficult as with Tarot I general…

Hi, It's great to have found my way here. Just as a bit of an intro, I've dabbled in tarot and oracle cards for about 4 years and really enjoy it, but really need more practice and study. I live in the north east of the UK (hence the username) with my beloved old pooch, 6 guinea pigs and 4 chinchillas. I'm looking to gain a more indepth understanding of tarot and hope to get some reading practice as I don't have many IRL people to read for. I'm looking forward to connecting with you all.

i wouldnt say im new to the concept of tarot, ive been into it for a few years now. but im just now really coming into my spiritual awakening and i decided to buy some decks and crystals. after watching tarot stuff for so long im pretty sure i have the basics down, meanings of the cards and a singular, im still struggling a bit to understand how to read them as a whole. i dont really have a community to turn to about this, so i was hoping i could find some great friends here that can guide me a bit! i cant wait to start working with my deck and really come into the thing i want to do the most

Hi everyone! I am new to this site and to tarot. I've always been intuitive, but am now at a place in my life where I have time to learn tarot and other divination methods. I am happy to have discovered this group and look forward to learning from all of you while being part of a community!

Hello! I’ve been really missing all the friends and people I learned so much from AT. So many forums popped up to fill the void of AT, but I seldom saw anyone I knew, and I just got busy with other things. But I really missed learning about up & coming decks, what I’d better jump on, and when I needed to just *save my money*. 😉 I’ve missed out in so many interesting decks, I’d find out about them AFTER a Kickstarter, etc, had ended or they were sold out. 😕 I’ve kept my name the same as it was at AT, in case anyone were to remember me. Thanks to Quester, for recommending this forum to me. I subscribed for a year, and I look forward to finding my way ar…

Hi all! I was part of AT back in the day and have been on a kind of tarot break. But I am happy to be back and to have found this new forum! See everyone around!

Hi everyone. I am fairly new to Tarot cards. I first started about a year ago. I was overwhelmed with trying to learn the cards and had no connection to the cards. I put them up for months. Then the cards started calling to me and I have practiced by giving free readings on facebook. I now feel a connection with my cards, and have gotten very favorable feedback. My readings are very basic. I am hoping to learn all I can about the cards and give more in depth readings. Thank you everyone in advance for any and all help you give me.

Hello from the southern hemisphere! After AT closed I didn't know where to go for a number of years. Found this forum which is pleasantly active. You all seem like beautiful people!! Would love to get to know you & my decks some more. And, have a lovely day, wherever you are. 😄🍀✨

Hey everyone! I joined this forum site in looking to deepen my tarot reading skills. I just wanted to say hello. I got my first tarot deck the beginning of this year and am now learning to improve my tarot skills.

This is my first time ever on an online forum and i want to send love to all the members here 🙂

Hi there! I'm ME (like, M.E., not me) and I'm here under starwritten as an homage to my Tumblr (that is not my complete name there, and I will save that for the self-promotion area!). I've been looking for you all for so, so long. I don't really know how to go about this introduction, so I'm just going to dive right in. I'm a 23-year-old graduate student, and I'm in/from Appalachia, US. I've been familiar with divination for as long as I can remember, but I have only been studying divination actively since 2015. I did not enter into any formal practice of any kind until August 2018, so we are in the start of my second full year in my tarot journey!…

Hi everyone. I think I might have briefly had an identity here after AT closed down (I used the name of a Greek playwright there) - or more likely it was a different forum, but at any rate, I didn't stay at the time. I'd just returned to Tarot then and it was like arriving home after a long journey to find the city in flames. So, after a hiatus, here I am again. Pleased to see a few of the old crew here and looking forward to meeting new folk. I live in the Southern hemisphere. My favorite deck is the Spiral, and my collection includes the Blake, Rohrig (another favorite), Touchstone (love it so much), Housewives' (a very witty deck, underrated), Norse, Druid…

Hello everybody! I'm a novice tarot reader. I got my first deck at the beginning of July. I know this sounds weird but I feel like my deck chose me as I really didn't want to get into tarot as there seemed so much to learn and I already was getting quite deep into astrology. I was browsing a shop in the book section looking for an interesting read and I saw the English Magic Tarot and I got this feeling in my stomach like when you meet someone you know you're goin to get on so much trouble with. I tried to talk myself down from buying them and tried to walk out of the shop but found myself buying them and it's been a big adventure since. I'm here because there…

I, too, am a refugee from Aecletic Tarot forum. I started studying the Tarot 2-3 years ago on my own, and it really can be a lonely journey sometimes. I'm grateful that there are online communities like these where Tarot readers and enthusiasts can really engage in what we love while learning from one another. Very much looking forward to geeking out over the latest lovely decks with you all! 😁😁

Hey guys, my name's Emily and I'm a tarot reader from Australia! I really wanted to get involved with a community who shares the same love of tarot as I do, so, as you can see, I'm now here. I've been reading with the Rider Waite deck for a few years now but it's been a very solo project. I'd love to get feedback on my own readings or even just new perspectives on card interpretations. Anyway, just thought I'd start here and say hi! Feel free to give me any pointers that you think a newbie to the site should know.

Hi everyone! I´m a working mum from Finland, and a big beginner with tarot. I bought my first tarot deck a very long time ago. I have read a few books and trying to figure out the language of tarot, got stuck and then the deck has been in the drawer for a while until I start over. So now I have started over once again 😃 I was a member at the AT-forum until it shut down. At this point I´m just trying to learn the cards meaning and then getting stuck because I can´t link together one card with the next one in a reading. I think it´s best to just try to figure out the card´s meaning and then maybe later on I can make a fluent reading. Most of the time I jus…

Hello lovely people. I am Lucifall, 56 female from the Netherlands and very happy i found this forum , I use RWS, BOTA tarot and Hermetic tarot for study and have collected tarotsets for twenty years now. I started with this after i bought a box with tarot sets in a second hand shop. It told a lot about the former owner. She collected sets and bought sets when she was travelling. I did the same afterwards and off course always looking around for tarotsets in bookshops where ever i am. Even in Thailand i found a tarotset. In the 7/11 of all places!! Hope to learn a lot in this forum.

Hi, I just discovered you! I'm not a professional tarot reader, or even really a tarot reader, I am a tarot learner at best. I love it and am always looking to learn more. I'm really excited this exists! I also feel nervous posting with the big kids!

Hi! I was a longtime member of AT and I guess I got lost on the way here 😉 My old username was Rhiamon Witch, and I miss hanging out where ppl love tarot almost as much as I do...lol Nice to meet everyone!
