I find tarot cards a beautiful gift to have. However it is guidance. When you learn, I suggest to really look at the cards and learn of them.. come up with your heart characteristics and your heart what each card says. Once you give them all defin...

About Me:
First a few facts about Me…

About 11 years ago my husband, 4 children and I were on a day trip to the ocean near our home in Northern California. We stopped
and visited a little store along the beach. It was in this store that I purchased my first Tarot deck.

I became “obsessed” with reading the cards. I loved the artwork and the symbols and learning the meanings of the cards. I found
that the cards helped me to discover issues that I was avoiding in my life. It showed me fears that I wasn’t acknowledging so I could
move past problems and better myself and my relationships.

Over the years I have purchased 23 Tarot decks. My favorite decks are Gilded Tarot, Hanson Roberts, Spiral Tarot, The Gendron
Tarot and The Russian Tarot of St. Petersburg. I am drawn to these decks because they are rich in design and color.

I have found that reading the Tarot cards came naturally to me because I was born with a “photographic memory”. From the time I was
a small child I have been able to remember long sequences of numbers. When reading the cards I see what I consider “motion in the
cards” of an actual event that is going to happen. This did not come to me initially when learning to read the Tarot cards it is
something that I experienced with time and practice.

I am a member of the [American Tarot Association ], ATA, and subscribe to their code of ethics as well as my own.

Tarot Meditation

As a lot of tarot card readers do I pull one tarot card and meditate on it early every morning. I have some personal meditations that I will be sharing at a later date. To start us off though I would like to share some wonderful meditations created for the Major Trumps by Bill Heidrick.

elements, with a common set of associations being the following: Wands
with fire, Cups with water, Swords with air, and Coins with
earth.[citation needed] In other sets of associations, Fire is

The Major Arcana

The Major Arcana (Trumps Major, Major Trumps) of the Tarot deck
consists of 22 cards. The name Major Arcana is used only in esoteric
practice. Game players using Tarot decks for playing call them Trumps
and usually only show a Roman or Arabic numeral on each card, plus some
decoration that is identical on all of them.

In esoteric sets,
each Major Arcanum depicts a scene, mostly featuring a person or
several people, with many symbolic elements. In many decks, each has a
number (usually i… Continue
