Thank you so much! its been bugging me for a looong time now, i'm so glad that you told me it was called a spread.

Answer 1

If you are using Tarot cards as an oracle, you may be more inclined to read card meanings and use spreads. But if using Tarot Cards as a tool for Psychic Ability you would be less likely to hold to any hard and fast guide lines. I’m a profession psychic and use Tarot Cards in a random way. In 25 years of professional readings I’ve never used any ‘meanings or spreads’ of tarot cards from any books.

So if you want to develop ‘Psychic Ability’ throw the books and guidelines away and let the images inspire you.


I believe we are all psychic, but for the majority the gift or the belief has been long knocked out of them. Educated out is another way of looking at it. Many professional psychics have grown up in a psychic friendly environment. Perhaps a grand-parent or parent with the knowledge has helped bring the extra sense out in the open and encouraged its use. But there are as many practicing psychics who have not had the benefit of caring psychic guidance and who have still managed to develop and hone this natural extra sense. The Psychic Sense.

But on the other hand, if you want to use the Tarot as an oracle, a form of divination that needs no real ‘psychic ability’, then keep the books and use the meanings and spreads if you prefer.

Here is a free download demo for a great Tarot program. To keep the size of the demo manageable it contains the Rider/Waite deck, the actual program will have 10 complete decks. This Demo version of Tarot is a full working copy for 30 days. So you get 30 days to study meanings and spreads! http://www.free-tarot-download-demo.wotsnext.com

Well, not that I believe in the tarot, but presumably one will do better readings from a deck that "calls" to you. Obviously this acquaintance of yours has assumed that you just bought any old cheap cards, and not a set that you've been drawn to. Is it true? Only you know. He or she thinks you need to go to some kind of specialty store, peruse all the different tarot cards, and pick the deck you are most drawn to. And yeah, I'm pretty sure those'll cost you more than a buck. Will they work any better? Meh. Personally, I doubt it. .

Answer 4

with the traditional deck, you lay the first six cards in a cross formation and the last 4 cards to the right of the cross, to insure an unbiased reading.

This is a good site. Free lessons in Tarot.

Answer 6

I believe there's a site called http://tarot.com

I don't know sites, really. But, if you go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/tarot You'll find some.

Tarot cards are about as dangerous as a regular deck of cards... AKA, beware of the papercuts!

Good luck.

There are many different spreads depending on your purpose. You can even make up your own spread that feels right to you.

Answer 8

type in tarot card reading in the search engine . i dont wanna scare you or anything but Tarot cards are dangerous. My sister and her friend would do reading to eachother all the time. My sis isnt afraid of anything but since she started doing that she told me she would feel someone in her room. And that she saw this lady it was scary to me. my husband told me not to mess with that. But it can be dangerous cause just like the ouija board it can open up portals.
