Hi there Tarot Friends, If you feel you don’t have the time to devote to learning Tarot, here are 3 things you can do that take just minutes to accomplish and will grow your Tarot skills. It’s the how do you eat an elephant strategy – one bite at a time. A new take on the daily draw (10 min a day)Yes, you’ve undoubtedly heard of the daily draw. But most people don’t leverage the power of the daily draw to their advantage. The way to get the most out of your daily draw is to REVISIT the draw that evening and write down your reflections from the day. This simple step helps you connect the cards to actual events, feelings, thoughts, perceptions and more instead of just forgetting about the cards you drew and moving on. At first, your draws may not make much sense. Even after doing this for many years, I have draws that don’t make any sense. I don’t click with what the cards are trying to say. The key is to just write down your reflections anyway. Remember the elephant? Just keep the relationship between you and the cards fresh. This is your goal. pick from the choices below to supercharge your daily drawTip 1: Another tip for the daily draw is to use some sort of focal point for this mini reading. You can use a question as broad as – what do I need to know today? Tip 2: If you don’t have a question in mind, then pull a random card from a spread deck.

The 2 cards work together to create a picture, feeling, or word salad that you can play with to come up with the message. Remember the daily draw is part of your Tarot practice. And practice makes perfect. I'VE GOT 2 MORE SUPERB TIPS FOR YOU --WEEKLY SPREADS AND CARD LINKING 🏃➡️ Astrology UpdateI'm having my Mars return this week. A Mars return happens every 2 years.
