Your quick start guide

1️⃣ Clear Your Mind 😌

Find a quiet space. Take a deep breath. Settle into the moment. Tarot works best when you’re present and open to insight.

2️⃣ Ask a Question 💭

Your question shapes your reading. Keep it open-ended for the best results.

Try these:

  • What energy should I bring into my day?

  • How can I navigate this situation?

  • What should I focus on right now?

💡 Tip: Instead of asking “Will I…?” try “How can I…?” for clearer guidance.

3️⃣ Shuffle & Pull a Card 🔮

No wrong way to do this—just go with what feels natural.

🔄 Overhand Shuffle: The simplest way—just mix the cards in your hands.


🃏 Fan Method: Spread the deck out and pick the card that calls to you.


🎲 Riffle Shuffle: Fancy casino-style shuffle for a little drama.

Once shuffled, pull a card and place it face up.

4️⃣ Reflect on Your Card 🪞

Now, take a moment to really look at it:

👀 What symbols or colors stand out?
💡 How does it make you feel?
🔗 What connections can you make to your question?

If you're unsure, check the keywords or meanings associated with the card—but trust your intuition first.

5️⃣ Your First Practice ✨

Ask: “What energy should I focus on today?”

  • Pull a card

  • Write down your thoughts

  • See how it plays out in your day
