Well, I remember when I first decided to learn how to read Celtic Cross Tarot as a beginner. It was like stepping into a whole new world.
I started off by getting myself a basic Tarot deck. I just went to a local store and picked one that looked cool to me. No fancy research or anything. Then, I sat down at my table, all excited, and just stared at the cards for a while. I was like, “Okay, where do I even begin?”
I first shuffled the cards. Man, that was a bit of a mess at first. I wasn’t used to handling so many cards at once. But after a few tries, I got the hang of it. I shuffled them real good, like I was trying to mix up all the possible futures or something.
Next, I laid out the Celtic Cross spread. I followed a simple guide I found in a little booklet that came with the deck. It told me where to place each card, one by one. It was like building a little puzzle on the table. I was so focused, I didn’t even notice how much time had passed.
Now, reading the cards was the real challenge. I started with the first card in the spread. I looked at the picture on it and tried to think about what it could mean. I remembered reading somewhere that the images on the cards are like clues. So, I just let my mind wander and thought about how the image related to the question I had in mind. For example, if there was a card with a person walking alone, I thought, “Maybe this means I’m on my own path right now.”
I went through each card in the spread, one after another. Sometimes, I had to look back at the guide to get a better idea of what the card might represent. But I also tried to trust my own gut feeling. It was like a conversation between me and the cards.
After I finished reading all the cards, I sat back and tried to make sense of the whole spread. I looked at how the cards related to each other. It was like putting together a story. Some cards seemed to support each other, while others seemed to be in conflict. It was really interesting to see how everything fit together.
At first, my readings were a bit rough. I wasn’t sure if I was doing it right. But with more practice, I got better. I started to see patterns and connections that I didn’t notice before. And you know what? Sometimes, the readings actually made a lot of sense in my real life. It was like the cards were giving me some kind of advice or insight.
So, if you’re a beginner like I was, don’t be afraid to just jump in and give it a try. It might seem confusing at first, but with a little practice and patience, you’ll start to understand how to read the Celtic Cross Tarot. Just have fun with it!
