Get started with Tarot all by yourself

It is very easy to get started with Tarot all by yourself and make it a part of your life.

1.  Buy a Tarot deck (mostly a guide book comes along with it). Follow the instructions in the guide book and you are all set to start.
2. There are many different kinds available these days; choose any deck that you are attracted to.
3.  A standard deck has 78 cards with 22 Major Arcana and 56 Minor Arcana cards divided into 4 suits. Most decks are built on this model. You should probably stick with a standard deck to start so that you get familiar with the most common format and get an insight into the traditional Tarot.
4.  The Rider-Waite is probably the most common and widely used deck and is based on the traditional format of Tarot. There are newer decks with different themes like the Doreen Virtue Tarot Cards, OSHO Zen Tarot.
5.  If you go for the Rider-Waite deck or only a deck without a book then it is a good idea to buy a good book along with it like ‘The Tarot Bible’ which is very good and easy to follow. Personally my favorites are Rider- Waite and OSHO Zen Tarot. I do have a few more and I love all of them but I use these two mostly.   

Some tips-

a.       Do the readings when you have quiet and free time.

b.      Initially do readings only for yourself.

c.       Relax and keep your emotions in control while doing the readings.

d.      Use only one or two Tarot decks to begin with; the more you use them the more they will get attuned to your energy. 

e.    Most of all Keep It Simple.

Always remember, Tarot is not fortune-telling. The symbolism of the Tarot can provide an insight into the events and feelings in your life, guidance when we need to make decisions; not answers, but another perspective on your situation.

Tarot is an invaluable tool for self-analysis and can help you deal with difficult situations.

Emotions - Love or Fear

Life is about experiencing good & bad, positive & negative, and that’s why we are here – to experience and to learn from our experiences. Our experiences bring out the emotions in us and we react and behave based on how or what we feel.
The two basic emotions we experience are Love and Fear. All other emotions come from Love or Fear. It is not possible to control what we feel. If you don’t like someone’s behavior or a job or a hair style or a study subject then you just don’t like it. But you can learn to live peacefully with your emotions and release them in the right way.

“You cannot make yourself feel something you do not feel, but you can make yourself do right in spite of your feelings.” - Pearl S. Buck

So we always have a choice to act in Love and not in Fear no matter what the situation is.

But when the going gets tough, it is a good idea to do something extra which can make us feel better and do better (it’s also a good idea to do the extra bit when the going is pretty smooth.J )  

Meditation can fill you with lots of positivity, deeply clear your mind and bring a lot of peace. Meditations can have very powerful experiences so meditate with all your heart and experience the wonders.  Ask your Angels or Guides for their divine assistance and guidance. Have faith and you will see how wonderfully things will start to harmonize.

Divination is very healing. Tarot, Astrology and Numerology etc. can bring us emotional peace and motivation. Help us understand why things are happening, pinpoint problems and provide beautiful solutions. My personal experience in my best & worst times with Tarot & Numerology has been really amazing. When I needed someone to guide me to do the right things and make the right decisions. At that time Tarot guidance & my Angels helped me, guided me, kept my energies high and kept me grounded.

Breathing exercises or Pranayama are very calming & relaxing, they also have excellent health benefits.

Music is the most uplifting and inspiring for the mind, body & soul. So listen to some happy, inspiring & motivating music.

Exercise is anyways very important as rightly said “Your body is the greatest instrument you’ll ever own”. Yoga, Aerobics, Swimming are my favorites, they are very refreshing and add a feel good factor to your day.

Most important is to make the choice to act in Love, the feeling will follow automatically.
