This is how to draw Tarot cards from a deck

You can do a simple test that will consist of randomly selecting 22 cards, face down, that you don’t look at until the end of the day. You’ll notice that your choice of cards will relate to your mood during the day. Repeat this exercise for 22 days then start it over for the following 22 days but, this time, try to guess the card that you’ve pulled each morning. You will be surprised with your results, and you’ll also be ready to start your drawing your first cards!

For all of your drawings, it’s recommended that you prepare your ritual in a calm place, full of peace and quiet and without any harsh light. You could, for example, light some candles that will act as incentives for your choices. This is all you’ll need to do to prepare the atmosphere for the ceremony.

Once in effect, you can start to relax whilst thinking the problems or issues that you want to address. Shuffle the cards thinking about your question, then split the deck with your left hand. For every deck, gather the 2 halves, taking care to place the half that was on the bottom, on top.

How should I lay out the cards?

There are many Tarot spread styles, but the Cross Spread is one of the simplest and most effective methods:

🃏 The basic Cross spread

• First Card (Left): Represents you and your current emotions.
• Second Card (Right): Reveals external influences affecting your question.
• Third Card (Top): Highlights potential opportunities or outcomes.
• Fourth Card (Bottom): Provides the final answer or future direction.

If any card appears upside down (reversed), its interpretation might be blocked energy, a challenge, or an internalized lesson. If you’re unsure, you can pull one clarifying card to help interpret the message.
