- Preparing a Tarot Deck and Reading Up
Before being able to do a reading, you’ll first need a special deck comprised of tarot cards. A tarot deck usually consists of 78 cards in total. The cards are divided and sorted between the 22 Major Arcana and the 56 Minor Arcana. However, in more recent times the Minor Arcana are usually not involved in tarot reading and most tarot readings utilize the 22 Major Arcana.

- Ask a question
After preparing everything you need for a reading, the next thing you’ll need would be a question. An important aspect of the question you’re going to ask is that it should be open-ended. You should always avoid asking any “Will I…” questions as it simply means you have resigned yourself to fate and you’ll only be passive towards while doing nothing of note to help it.
The usual questions to ask normally involves with what, why and how. You can ask questions such as why do you feel sad or very unease at the moment or how you can help yourself or a friend in their troubles. Tarot reading normally gives you a sense of guidance to your next action to hopefully change it for the better and prepare for it.
- Shuffle and pull your cards
After thinking and asking of a question, it is time to shuffle the deck. There’s no real proper way to shuffle the deck so feel free to do it however you want and how long you want. After shuffling the deck, its time to pull your cards. You have the option to pull a single card if you want a simple reading or you can pull between 3 or 5 if you want a clearer meaning or answer, this is called a spread.
- Interpret the meaning
After pulling your card and spread, its time to interpret its meaning. A key point to maintain at this time is keeping a calm, clear and collected mind. It is up to you to understand how the card is related to your question and how it can help guide you. You can always check for references if you’re confused.
After getting your answer and some reflection, you have now successfully performed a tarot card reading. You can choose to do it again if you want to ask another question or want a clearer answer.
