YAY!!! It was a birthday gift to me from a friend, which was really nice, because I've been looking for a set of Tarot cards for months now. I'm very picky, and wanted just the right set, and was looking & looking, trying to decide which would be the right one for me, what images I might want on it, what style, etc., so this was good; it ended the indecision!! So, she got me this set, and it comes with a little book with some interpretations: http://www.amazon.com/Se cret-Tarot-Renaissance-Symbols-Science/dp/0743226135/sr=8-4/qid=1170392628/ref=pd_bbs_sr_4/105-1424936-2958008?ie=UTF8&s=books Has anyone used this one before? What did you think? Do you have any advice for me on how to get started, or how to use it? (I'm a total newb., when it comes to Tarot, so I'd appreciate any help at all!!) Sunshine IP: Logged |

Thanks much, Amisha!! Do you do Tarot too? What pack do you use? I'm so excited, and can't wait to get started doing actual readings. I did a simple Timing question today (i'm not sure what to call it, as I'm more used to horary questions and their terminology), and I got an answer that sat right with my intuition & confirmed what recent horary charts have said, so I was really excited!! I'm LOVING the magic of Tarot!! Sunshine IP: Logged |

Oooh, it occurred to me that I don't know how to interpret yet, and maybe just using a book isn't the right thing to do. What do you all do initially - do you use a book to help with interpretations, or go on your intuition, or both? I was just using the book that came with my Tarot cards. So, I asked about when an event is likely to occur, and my book said to use 2, 3, or 4 of the Minor Arcana suit, and try drawing up to 13 cards until you get your answer. So I drew 4 cards, and then the Two of Swords turned up. My book says that the Swords cards refer to spring months, and that Two indicates March. Does this sound alright? Sunshine IP: Logged | |
