Using the Cards
There are many ways to engage with tarot cards. It can be done alone or in the company of others. Generally, an intention is set or a question is asked. This can be done silently to yourself or out loud. Feel free to shuffle the deck. The cards can be spread out on a table. Choose a card at random. Use the guidebook to read about the card you chose. You can read this yourself or have your partner read it.
Pulling three cards per person is common. They can represent past, present, and future or simply add additional clarity about a single topic/question you have in mind. You will find more information about different ‘tarot spreads’ in the Gentle Tarot guidebook.
