An introduction to tarot, with Jennifer

Come sit with me. You don’t need to have the right question or know what any card means to learn about tarot as a way to reflect.

Let me show you the basics

I’ll start with what you need to know.

I use tarot as a way to reflect. A picture can help you put a feeling into words or see a choice from another angle. It can’t tell us what will happen, and it isn’t a scientific way to know your life. You always get to decide what fits.

A deck has two parts.
A common tarot deck has 78 cards: 22 Major Arcana and 56 Minor Arcana. Traditions and decks vary.
Four suits give a deck its structure.
The Minor Arcana commonly has four suits: Wands, Cups, Swords, and Pentacles. Each suit has Ace through Ten and four court cards: Page, Knight, Queen, and King.
Reflection leaves room for you.
Your response matters more than getting a definition “right.” You don’t need to memorize a deck or make a card fit your life.
A spread is just an arrangement.
A spread gives cards positions within a reflective exercise. It doesn’t make decisions for you or predict what will happen.
