Hello, 

 

I am a beginner in tarot and have recently started studying. I've always been interested in tarot but haven't been able to focus on learning this til now. I would appreciate any help and advice that everyone has to give!

 

Thank you so much in advance for the questions I know I'll ask!

Welcome, it’s great to meet you!
 

Here is a thread you might enjoy 😀 It gives you tons of free resources for learning tarot!

 

 

Welcome to the forum @athysia, hope we can help you on your tarot journey ahead 😀

Hi, welcome!

My advice is to keep it simple - a deck that is based on the standard RWS is good for learning with, though if you've got something unusual that's fine too. Do small readings - three or four card spreads at most - so you don't get overwhelmed. Keep a journal.

 

It's rewarding to spend some time getting familiar with the cards without necessarily reading. Lay out a suit and look through it, comparing, and looking up meanings. Lay out sets from across suits - ones, tens, courts - and compare and contrast those too.

 

I like to combine intuitive reading (just going with my gut reaction to the card, and seeing what is in the image that speaks to me) with reading about formal meanings and interpretations, based on the symbolism that the card contains. There's no one right way.
