How does the Tarot "work" when it seems

to answer questions so directly?

When you ask your question with sincerity and you intend to get an answer, you will get an answer, possibly in many ways. It depends on how good you are at deciphering the events around you at the moment you ask the question. A flock of birds, cloud formations, or the pattern the wind makes in the trees could hold an answer. The tarot is a sort of sacred machine devised to respond to your question and freeze your answer as a picture of it in time so that you may decipher it. The trick is to know how to derive meaning from your deck of tarot cards and that is what the Instant Tarot Reader have done for you.

 

What if I do not like the answer I receive?

When this happens, it is important to look inside yourself and see why you are troubled by the answer you have received. Do you think you would not be able to cope if things turned out the way the tarot cards are suggesting? Do you have the confidence in yourself to believe that you can cope with a wide range of experiences? If not, why not? The wonderful thing about the tarot is that if you get an unfavorable answer, you can ask the tarot for guidance about how to change things for the better. To do so, you can refer to the one card, three card or Celtic Cross sample questions in the Instant Tarot Reader's Book on pages 14-21 to help you phrase your question so that you are asking how to change things so that they may work out more to your liking. Using the tarot to get in touch with your feelings is one of its most important uses.

 

What if I'm not sure what my answer means?

You may experience a flash of intuition that can reveal the meaning that was hidden from you only a moment ago with the Instant Tarot Reader. The large majority of the answers you get using The Instant Tarot Reader will make it seem as though the cards picked from your deck are speaking directly to your question. However, there may be times when the answer you receive does not appear to be specifically answering your question. These are the best times for developing your intuition and your ability to make decisions. Let your mind "free associate." This term describes the powerful way your conscious mind communicates with your Higher Self, the source of your inner voice. It does so using symbols, the language of your subconscious mind and your dreams. Your first impression upon seeing the image/s of the card/s you have picked can inspire in your imagination a further series of images connected to and directed by your Higher Self. In the tarot, The High Priestess is the card symbolizing this process. If you still do not understand, pick the High Priestess card out of the deck and look at it for a moment. Know that she is going to guide you as you place her back in the deck and shuffle it while asking for a clarification of the meaning of your previous reading. Pick one card and then turn to the page listing its meanings.

 

What is the origin of the tarot?

The origin of the tarot and even its original purpose is a subject upon which even the most learned scholars cannot seem to agree. There is an old joke told about every kind of scholar: put two of them in a room and you will get three opinions. Some say the tarot started out as plasterboard pictures of various gods and goddesses used to teach their divine properties to the illiterate and brought to Europe by travelers from India. These travelers arrived when Egypt was all the rage and found it advantageous to be known as "Gyptees." Their descendants are now known as Gypsies. That theory might account for many people believing tarot originated in Egypt. However, there are those that claim tarot came from tenth century China, and there are advocates for Hebraic, Islamic, or Indian origins as well. One thing seems certain: the earliest and most complete deck of tarot cards dates from the early fifteenth century, and is said to have been made for the Duke of Milan.

The Instant Tarot Reader collage tapestries on the tarot cards have been uniquely successful in blending the essence of the fantasy, fine art, and spiritual wisdom of all the nations thought to have originated the tarot.

What is the difference between the

Major Arcana and the Minor Arcana?

The tarot may very well have started out as two separate decks: a spiritually-oriented deck whose purpose was religious instruction and divination, and the deck used for gaming and gambling. The Major Arcana are the first twenty-two cards of the tarot, starting with the number 0, The Fool, and going up to number 21. The World. These cards represent the "arcane" or secret spiritual principles of life. We all make the journey from being The Fool, innocent and poised on the threshold of a great cycle of growth and experience, and eventually arrive at The World, our graduation and the culmination of a major period of our life. Between these two cards are the twenty other major stages of growth and learning. Once we have gone through them all, we are ready to start again on our soul's quest for experience and self-knowledge.

The Minor Arcana are the origin of the modern playing card deck. This deck's four suits-Clubs, Spades, Hearts, and Diamonds - are the descendants of the tarot's traditional four suits-Wands, Swords, Cups, and Pentacles. The Joker in a modern playing card deck is a descendant of The Fool. The cards of the Minor Arcana are not as concerned with spiritual realities as they are with our everyday, earthly reality as human beings. The Minor Arcana help us to bring the spiritual wisdom of the Major Arcana down to earth so that we can use it for our benefit on all levels.

Can I do a Tarot reading for another person

with Instant Tarot Reader?

With the Instant Tarot Reader you will soon feel confident enough to try reading for others. Doing tarot readings for your friends is very enjoyable. However, it is usually best to do your readings by yourself when you are first learning. The Instant Tarot Reader is designed so that you will learn quickly. Once you do, it is best to start with a trusted friend, preferably one with an open mind. Eventually, you may feel confident enough to read for anyone, anywhere, anytime.

Can I do a Tarot reading for someone

who is not present?

Wait until you are comfortable with The Instant Tarot Reader procedure before trying to ask a question for someone who is not with you at the time you are doing the reading. Remember that most people do not understand what the tarot really is  - a decision making tool - and do not have the rest of the information about becoming an instant tarot reader contained in the Instant Tarot Reader book. Make sure the person understands what the tarot really is before attempting a reading for someone else. It is too easy to mislead or frighten the uninitiated if this advice is ignored. The person must be told that the answers they receive are only indications of the way things might be. They must understand that their free will is more powerful than any tarot reading. There is no reading so good that it cannot be invalidated if someone fails to do what is right. Conversely, there is no tarot reading that is so bad that is, too, cannot be invalidated by changing course and doing what is right. The tarot is a very powerful tool, but it is not more powerful than the people asking the questions. We, alone, are responsible for our actions. If you remember and convey this to those you want to do a reading for, then you can rest assured that the readings you do will help to guide others. You will then be able to have a lot of fun learning about your life and life in general.

It is a tremendous responsibility to do readings for other people and you should keep that in mind once starting to read with the Instant Tarot Reader for others.
