Understanding Symbols In Tarot Card Readings

By Stacey Burt


When it comes to psychic readings and the occult, there are several options for readers and those seeking a reading. One of the most important aspect in receiving an accurate reading in any format is that the individual obtaining the reading must also believe in the power of tarot card readings. The next, is to allow the individuals to participate in the reading by shuffling and cutting the cards.

The symbols associated with different tarot decks all represent the same energies. Although while some decks may show pentacles, others stones. Whereas, generally all the elements are presented in one fashion or another, generally through beautiful imagery on each card. Most decks contain the major, and minor arcana; Although, there are some decks which may only contain one or the other.

The history of tarot goes back to the ancients which used regular playing cards when providing services to clients. As time developed, so too the many different artistic and spiritual cards now on the market. Whether using a traditional playing card deck, or a specialized version, it is essential to know the symbols and associated meanings associated with the deck.

One particular type of reading is that of the "Lifepath Psychic Reading, " though this type of reading is quite rare. It is believed there may only be one reader in the United States who offers this proprietary type reading. A reading which reveals not only past, present and future but current situations, what has brought these issues into the environment, and how to cleanse or clear the energy if so desired.

Regardless of the deck an individual uses on a regular basis, there are generally a number of different options with regards to layouts. A number of decks provide maps of different layouts based on questions asked, or topics discussed. Whereas others base layouts on past, present and future energies, issues, and resolutions. Most offer readings that can range anywhere from ten to fifteen minutes to over four hours.

Psychics often have a connection with a specific deck or decks over the years. It is often advised that a deck should be a gift rather than purchased for oneself. Although, if one does not receive a deck as a gift from another individual, considering the deck a gift to oneself can often suffice.

While some palmists and psychics can be found working independently, or for local companies in entertainment districts, festivals or Pagan bookstores, others work out of private home and offices. Currently, phone and online offerings are beginning to outperform local and traveling psychics. Although, a resurgence I freak shows could also result in a resurgence of fortune tellers at carnivals as well as other festivals around the world.

Lastly, readers, old and new need to realize there are going to be skeptics who ridicule psychics and the profession as being fraudulent. Only those who have seen the power of the tarot through accurate "Lifepath Psychic Readings, " or traditional ones are going to be the biggest believers. Whereas, those who believe the act of reading cards, palms and other aspects of the occult are of the devil will most likely never believe the beauty or magic of the many different decks now available in bookstores and online.
