How to Read Tarot

Hey beautiful! I believe anyone can read Tarot – including YOU! No special gifts required.

All you need is to say YES to your intuition and trust yourself.

Everything I teach on Biddy Tarot is designed to help you access your intuition, read Tarot with confidence, and create the life you want to live.

Let's start with the basics of learning Tarot card reading…

What is Tarot, Really?

The Tarot is a deck of 78 cards, each with its own imagery, symbolism and story. The 22 Major Arcana cards represent life's karmic and spiritual lessons, and the 56 Minor Arcana cards reflect the trials and tribulations that we experience on a daily basis.

Some may say that Tarot cards are simply ink on paper. However, what I have discovered from reading the Tarot cards daily for over twenty years is this:

Tarot is the storybook of our life, the mirror to our soul, and the key to our inner wisdom.

Every spiritual lesson we meet in our lives can be found in the seventy-eight Tarot cards. And when we consult the Tarot, we’ll get shown the exact lessons we need to learn and master to live an inspired life. It’s like holding up a mirror to yourself so that you can access your subconscious mind and tap into the wisdom (and answers) that lives in us all.

Tarot is perfect for self-development, making choices, manifesting goals, coaching others, planning a business, meditating—you name it. Simply ask a question, pull a card, and dive into the imagery of the card to give you instant access to your inner wisdom and the answer you need.

How Does the Tarot Work?

Many people think the only way to use the cards is as a predictive tool to tell the future. But there's so much more to it than that!

Tarot also has the power to CREATE and the cards can help you to manifest your goals.

The imagery in the cards give you instant access to your subconscious mind and your intuition. And from this place of inner power and wisdom, you can discover how to bring what your want into your life.
