Before we delve into doing readings on yourself, I wanted to point out the Related Articles<\/strong> section at the bottom of this post. I’ve assembled a collection of articled that you will find interesting. Please check them out!<\/p>\n\n\n\n YES! You can give yourself a reading. A\ncommon misconception is that tarot readers should not conduct readings on\nthemselves, and this couldn\u2019t be further from the truth. It is important to\nremember that when using tarot on yourself you are both reader and\nquerent. <\/p>\n\n\n\n And because of this, you need to try your\nbest to avoid jumping to conclusions when pulling the cards. Pick a layout for\nyour spread and put the pieces together once the full scene is set. <\/p>\n\n\n\n One of the main reasons others out there\nmay advise against reading on yourself is because it can difficult to get\nobjective answers when you are emotionally invested in the outcome. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Just remember that it is entirely possible\nto approach a tarot reading for yourself in a neutral state and below are some\nways to effectively prepare. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Avoid trying to\nread for yourself, or anyone for that matter if you\u2019re feeling overly\nemotional. Being emotionally invested in a situation is not a bad thing and the\nadvice here is not to suppress those feelings. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Simply put, just\nhold off until you are feeling calm and relaxed enough to avoid a clouded\nperception.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Make sure you\ncleanse your area and deck with any method of your choosing. Some use sage\nwhile others find shuffling or knocking the deck on a surface to be just as\neffective. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Either way, you\nwant to remove any residual energies from your area. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Having a specific\nquestion in mind will be very beneficial especially considering that the cards\nmay be interpreted differently as the question changes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Writing it down\nmay help so that you have a reference point for later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Once you have\nidentified the question, assigning the cards specific roles will help ensure\nyou get a clear answer. You can even create your own to better fit with the\nquestion that you have. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Give your cards a\nrole and a set meaning because the interpretation can change depending on the\ncard\u2019s placement. (See Below for suggested Spreads)<\/p>\n\n\n\n Remember to use\nyour intuition. The spreads can be great for clarity but if a certain card\nfeels like it should be in a certain place, go with that. See where it takes\nyou.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Tarot is a guide,\nnot the end all be all. Use it to stay on track or find your direction and\nenjoy the process. Pulling cards that you don\u2019t like or getting an answer you\naren\u2019t satisfied with is fine. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Energy is\nchangeable and you have full creative control over your reality. Have fun with\nthis and become a stronger reader in the process. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Tarot Reading, 5-Minutes Free!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n I’ve recently started working with an online psychic reading company and I’ve received some great feedback.

This can be a great way to assess the accuracy of your\nreadings. Keeping a dated journal of your spreads that you can look back on can\nbe a great self-resource. <\/p>\n\n\n\n You can also take note of certain patterns you notice in your life and how they correspond with specific cards. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Getting to know a deck by using it on yourself first will make you an amazingly accurate reader. By implementing this you\u2019ll be able to offer additional insight to future querents if you ever decide to read for others. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Even starting with simple one card pulls\nfor overall energies of your day is a good way to start. You can pull a card at\nthe beginning of the day, but it may be better to wait until the end of the day\nso that this is more of a reflective activity. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Pulling at the start of your day could lead\nto you seeking specific energies that relate to the card you pulled that morning,\ninstead of allowing things to flow naturally. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Pulling at the end of the night is a bit\nmore beneficial because you can take some time to look back at the day for\nexamples of the card and how it relates. <\/p>\n\n\n\n What do I need to know right now?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nAre you allowed to do a reading on yourself?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
