11-20-22

Setting Yourself Up For A Tarot Reading
Formulating a question starts with connecting to yourself in terms of what it is you feel you need in the current moment. As you choose your question, you began to lay an energetic groundwork for yourself so the tarot reader and deck to utilize.

There are appropriate times to use a yes or no question. But, life isn’t black and white and the tarot or oracle cards will push the reader beyond those imposed limitations.

It is best to think of tarot readings as more of a dialogue or conversation. It is best to keep questions open-ended in order to dig into nuances; imagery and emotions that may be evoked by the pulled cards. A simple way of looking at it is to see it as explaining to the tarot deck of what’s going on and asking for thoughts on the situation.

Ask Questions About Yourself
It’s super important to keep the questions about you. It might be tempting to ask about other people and what they think or feel, but the answer may not make sense or you won’t get the answer you want. Think about focusing on your personal growth and wellbeing. You will be able to come out of the reading feeling empowered.

Tarot readings can help guide you into the future and how you are managing with the present. Try to focus on the now and not everything the future may hold.

Just remember, it is best to make sure to ask specific and clear questions. You aren’t going to get proper answers if your question is confusing.

Open-ended questions are best and means you are being open-minded and willing. This helps the reading tap into your subconscious and spirit.
