You know your deck so well. You hold it in your hands often, and maybe even slept with it under your pillow. But for some reason, it\u2019s given you a \u201cbad\u201d reading and thrown you for a loop. How could it be wrong? You heard the cards were never wrong.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tarot is a marvelous, magical tool for intuitive insight. When the cards don\u2019t give us a clear answer, it can be disheartening. What could be the matter?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
First, check in with yourself. If you are not in a balanced mental state, the cards may be picking up your energy. This can happen because of a crisis or just because you didn\u2019t slept well the night before.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you are reading for someone else, and they\u2019re giving you a look and a headshake for every card, be sure to ask them what your interpretation means to them. Together you can figure out how the card fits into the person\u2019s life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Another thing to consider is that a tarot reading is just a snapshot in time. As soon as you put your cards down and read them, the future can change based on what you learn. Sometimes what you think is a \u201cbad\u201d reading is you learning what you actually want, which may have been unclear before the reading. Tarot readings are not prophecies because we are never static.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Remember tarot readings are a mixture of present and future. If just part of the reading seems off, it could mean that those energies haven\u2019t entered your life yet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Consider that the energy of the cards is there\u2026 but the story you\u2019re associating with may be wrong. This is easy to fall into if you use a certain deck for a while. For example, in Rider-Waite, the Ten of Swords shows a man stabbed in the back. If you were to read just what is pictured in the card, you\u2019d see a betrayal. However, while each card represents a focused and isolated energy, realize that the energy is faceted. The Ten of Swords, being a 10 card, can simply mean the end of a cycle. Together with the suit of swords, it\u2019s the end of a cycle of great upheaval and change. In this case, the Ten of Swords can actually be a relief.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As a last resort, you can also clean your cards. After so many readings, your cards will absorb energy\u2014good and bad\u2014and may feel a little off. You can clean your cards by placing them under the light of the full moon overnight or placing them in salt overnight with plastic wrapped to protect them. A quartz crystal also helps as it absorbs energy indiscriminately as well. <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
