How Often Should You Have a Tarot Reading?
"How often should I have a Tarot Card reading?" There is no general answer really, it depends on your purpose, what type of reading you are having and the way you are using it. If you are looking for some indication about what is happening in general in the near future, then you could have a reading daily about what tomorrow might bring. With a reading based on one specific topic you can ask whenever you like as long as the topics are different. It's not recommended to ask the same thing many times, because the answers just become confusing and often merely reflect how you are feeling that day. Asking the same question again and again, trying to “nag” the cards into telling you what you want to hear is not healthy. Sometimes life doesn't give us what we want and we have to accept that and get on with things as best we can. I am sure Tarot readers use the cards often themselves, but paying for daily readings could get expensive.
If you are looking at one issue at a time, such as if you are going to get a new job soon, you can ask that question using a smaller spread. A few cards or a Celtic Cross will be fine and will tell you what the possibilities are in that situation. The reading might tell you if you need to add to your skills and head off in a new career direction or search more thoroughly for a job than you are currently doing. If you asked about moving your place of residence or selling your house, it may reveal that moving would be disruptive at this time. The Tarot is always more than just "Yes" or "No", and is able to provide some advice or insight into the topic at hand.
General or broad category readings like what the new year will bring tend to involve a bigger "spread", with more cards in it. This allows for the interpretation of a broader view of trends that may be coming into play around you. It usually tells a reader whether you are in a time of change, or one of relative stability. It may also offer insight on upcoming opportunities, turbulence, or if things shall remain very similar to how they are now. You don't need this kind of reading very frequently. It's "big picture" stuff and tends to change slowly.
It's better not to ask trivial questions. I have found that the Tarot works best when you've…
OMG Magic,.. is it for real?
Working with magic spells is like fake right? Its like pretend, or so I like to think, but something inside says we just don't mess with it. This is probably because you will be putting your own emotion and energy into a magic spell in it's creation... it will be like,..ughh personal, whoa there friend...., I have a strange feeling about this. The people who teach this Magic, Wicca, and Witchy stuff are all sorta weird, and that is super creepy in itself. Really, is there such a thing like real magic, what can you possibly do? It could be good, or amazing, or really super dangerous, so why not try it? Ummmm, for one you can go into it totally unprepared for what could happen, and if you open yourself up to the world of magic you might need to be strong enough to understand your own powers. Others might also want to use you to fulfill their own agendas... No thank you, I keeping my pants on tight.
The ingredients and tools that you use are dependent upon your beliefs, so if you can believe it enough, the results may just blow you away. Like faith can move a mountain, but remember, we are completely faithless little sheep? But wait there is hope, without faith we can still do this type of magic using mantras or affirmations. Words and sounds are all vibrational containers, so rhyming some spells helps us to get the message to stick, and if the meaning and message stick in our heads it may just play out in real life. You can put yourselves into a trance, somewhat hypnotized by repeating words for a long period of time, try this while charging the spell or even a single word with the energy of your will. Sounds like you need a mental checkup right? Everything that you put into the spell, the ingredients, the words, the time of day, etc come together with your desire, emotion, and belief to bring about some type of outcome. Like magic, if it works,... wow that is so cool. By the way I think David Blane is incredibly, .., well never mind.
