So there you go. You don’t know as much as I do (not yet anyway), but I’ve tried hard here to give you a really good start to truly understanding and speaking the language of tarot. Now you can begin reading tarot cards in the same way you read newspapers and books. No more guesswork! Or almost none, anyway. The fact is that you’ll be able to trust what you see and say, and as time goes on and you progress, what you see will become deeper and more detailed.
If you use this book the way it’s intended—if you work hard to learn the meanings of the cards right-side up and reversed; if you practice setting free and developing your right brain (with the creative exercises); if you approach each person you read as someone in need of help and deserving of your help; if you accept that nothing you do is done without some kind of guidance from outside of you; if you practice on as many “guinea pigs” as you can find without charging them—well, then, you just can’t help but become a really good reader! You can get to know nearly as much as I do one day, and maybe even eventually know all the stuff I don’t.
See, what I’ve learned is that anybody with the determination to do all that stuff probably has a terrific talent for the tarot. All it might take is cultivation. In the same way a little green shoot is nurtured by rain and sun to become a big and beautiful plant, so too can you develop your talent and skills to become a fine reader.
In the end, though, the most important thing in that list is caring: caring about every client the same way you care about the people you love. Because if you’re able to care that much, you’ll probably work really hard to do the best job you can. And that heart connection, invisible though it is, is the secret to it all.
So like the ad says, just do it!
