Tarot reading is a profound divination art that has fascinated for centuries. Whether you are only beginning to explore the world of Tarot or a seasoned practitioner, there are ways to deepen and enhance your readings.

One effective strategy that I use in my professional work is to incorporate the three “V’s” into my practice: variety, validation, and vision. These elements can significantly expand your reading skills and bring a new level of depth and accuracy to your interpretations.

Variety: The Spice Of Tarot

DIFFERENT DECKS

Professional tarot readers often own numerous decks, but usually prefer one or two. Using a variety of decks is a powerful way to keep your readings fresh and dynamic. Each tarot deck has its own unique artwork and symbolism that can offer new insights and perspectives. For example, a traditional Rider-Waite deck might give you straightforward interpretations, while a deck with abstract or modern imagery might give you more intuitive and creative readings.

When you change decks, you are essentially changing the lens through which you view the Tarot. This shift can lead to new interpretations and a broader understanding of the cards. For example, a deck with vibrant, colorful illustrations might highlight emotional aspects more vividly, while a minimalist deck might offer a more subdued and reflective reading.

DIFFERENT SPREADS

Most tarot readers start with a few familiar spreads or layouts, but even here it can be beneficial to introduce variety. If you find yourself using the same spreads over and over, consider exploring or creating new ones. Different layouts can offer different perspectives and insights on the same question.

For example, if you usually use a three-card spread (Past, Present, Future), try a more complex layout like the Celtic Cross or Tree of Life spread. Each spread has its own structure and focus that can reveal different facets of the situation at hand. Alternatively, you can design your own custom spread to address specific types of questions, such as love, career, or personal growth.

CARD COMBINATIONS

Another way to add variety to your readings is to focus on card combinations. Instead of interpreting each card in isolation, consider how the cards interact with each other. This approach can provide a richer and more nuanced reading. For example, the combination of The Star and The Tower might suggest a sudden but hopeful change, while The Lovers and The Devil might indicate complex relationships with both positive and negative elements.

MULTIDIMENSIONAL DIVINATION

Combine the Tarot with other divination practices. Integrating Tarot with other divination methods, such as astrology and numerology, can greatly enrich your readings by providing a multidimensional perspective. Each divination system offers unique insights and complements the others, leading to more comprehensive and nuanced interpretations. Combining these methods allows you to tap into a wider range of symbols, meanings and insights, enhancing your overall understanding of the situation at hand.

Astrology combined with Tarot adds depth to your readings by linking the cards to planetary energies and zodiacal traits. You can correlate the positions of the planets in the astrological houses with the Tarot cards, and assign specific Tarot cards to planets or zodiac signs. For example, The Empress is often associated with Venus, which represents love, beauty, and abundance. If The Empress appears in a reading, you could interpret it through the qualities of Venus, exploring themes of love, creativity, and nurturing energy.

By combining numerology with tarot, you can deepen your readings by incorporating the numerical aspects of the cards and understanding how they relate to your life path or specific questions. For example, cards with the number 1 (The Magician) symbolize new beginnings and leadership, while cards with the number 5 (The Hierophant) can represent change and challenge. Understanding these numerical associations can provide additional layers of meaning.

You can also combine the insights from each system to create a more holistic interpretation. For example, if a client is experiencing a challenging time such as a Saturn transit, set the intention to draw cards related to struggle and perseverance to interpret these challenges through both the astrological influence and the Tarot card meanings for a richer understanding.

Validation: Strengthening Your Interpretations

CROSS-CHECKING

Validating your readings is crucial to building confidence and ensuring accuracy. One effective method is to ask the same question using different spreads. For example, if you take a reading about a relationship using a three-card spread and the results seem unclear or uncertain, try a more detailed spread such as the Celtic Cross to gain additional insights.

By comparing the results of different spreads, you can check the consistency of the messages and gain a fuller understanding of the situation. If the same themes or symbols appear in different spreads, this strengthens the validity of the reading.

ADDITIONAL CARDS

If certain aspects of the reading remain unclear, consider drawing additional cards for further clarification. This technique allows you to delve deeper into specific areas of the reading that may require more detail. For example, if a card comes up that represents a challenging situation, you can draw additional cards to explore possible solutions or underlying factors.

CARD PROGRAMMING

Another powerful method of validation is to “program” the cards. Before you begin your reading, as you shuffle, you can mentally or verbally request that certain cards appear for validation. For example, if you want to confirm a potential move or journey, you might ask for cards like the Knight of Pentacles or the Chariot to appear, as these often signify movement or change.

This method can also be used for more abstract questions. For example, if you are trying to determine if someone you are reading about is familiar to you, you might ask for cards like the Six of Cups or The Lovers to indicate a connection or familiarity.

COLLABORATIVE READING

It can be very useful and enlightening to practice with others as you develop your tarot reading skills. This practice can bring in fresh perspectives and different interpretations, deepening your understanding of the cards and providing new insights that you may not have considered on your own. Each participant reads for others and vice versa, allowing everyone to experience different styles and approaches.

Find a fellow tarot enthusiast or friend who is interested in tarot. Set up regular sessions where you both do readings for each other or for a third party. Discuss your interpretations and insights together to gain different perspectives and improve your readings. You can also join local or online tarot circles, workshops, or study groups. These gatherings provide opportunities to share readings, discuss card meanings, and learn from each other’s experiences and techniques.

Vision: Expanding Your Interpretive Horizons

SYMBOLIC ANALYSIS

Dive deeper into the imagery and symbols of each card to uncover additional layers of meaning. The artwork on the cards is rich with symbolism that can offer more nuanced interpretations. For example, a card that shows a figure standing at a crossroads could symbolize not only a decision, but also a journey of self-discovery or transformation.

Analyze the colors, symbols, and positions of the figures in each card to deepen your understanding. This approach can reveal hidden messages and offer a broader range of interpretations that may not be immediately obvious from the traditional meanings alone.

PERSONAL SYMBOLISM

While traditional Tarot card readings provide a solid foundation, adding your personal insights can enhance your readings. Each card has standard meanings, but these should ideally be expanded based on your own experience and intuition. For example, while the Fool typically represents new beginnings and spontaneity, you may interpret it differently based on the context of the reading or the surrounding cards.

Developing personal meanings involves observing the images, symbols, and emotions associated with each card. Spend time with each card and reflect on what it evokes for you personally. This practice can lead to more intuitive and personalized readings.

TOPIC TAILORING

When you do a reading, especially one that focuses on a specific topic such as health or career, tailor your interpretations to the context. For example, if you are doing a health reading, you might associate cards with physical symptoms or conditions based on their imagery. Cards with pentacles might indicate issues related to physical health or medication, while wands might relate to energy levels or vitality.

In a career reading, consider how different cards might reflect different aspects of your professional life. Cards of animals or nature might suggest careers related to environmental work or animal care. By matching the meanings of the cards to the subject of the reading, you can provide more relevant and insightful guidance.

PSYCHIC DEVELOPMENT

The most powerful way to enhance your Tarot practice is to develop your psychic abilities. It transforms your Tarot readings by tapping into psychic perception and channeling. Integrating psychic insights into your readings is especially useful when you combine your psychic impressions with traditional card meanings. For example, if your psychic impressions suggest reconciliation when a card traditionally represents conflict, blend these insights to offer a balanced interpretation. Regular practice with different scenarios and seeking feedback from others can further refine your abilities. By incorporating more advanced psychic skills, you can elevate your Tarot practice and offer more comprehensive and insightful guidance to others.

Ultimately, Tarot is a deeply personal and intuitive practice. By applying these principles, you can deepen your connection with the cards, gain deeper insights, and harness the full power of this ancient divination tool. Embrace the journey of exploration and discovery, and let the Three V’s guide you to more powerful and meaningful Tarot readings.
