Hi,
I've just read that in between doing reading you're supposed to put the cards back in the right order. Isthat right? What about if you're doing reading after reading? How do you care for your cards?
much appreciated

Hi stepheno, I've never heard that before, gosh[:o]if I was to do that it would take so long.
I keep my cards in a velvet pouch & then inside a wooden box, some people wrap their cards in silk too
Love

RE: caring for tarot cards
Hi Stephano,
I haven't heard that but I can see how it would make sense. It is just rather impractical though. What I personally do for readings for different people is not just shuffle them, I spread them all out on the floor face down & really mess them up in a big pile & then put them all back together in a neat pile again. Not very professional looking maybe(!) but I find it makes a difference & makes the next reading more accurate. If I am doing more than one reading for the same person then I just shuffle them normally.
Love & Light

RE: caring for tarot cards
Thankyou as ever for your replies!!! Yes I have found that I have been just 'throwing' them on the floor in big pile and swooshing them all up again. Seems to be working so far!!
It's so strange - I have been buying tarot cards and tarot books for years and no matter how hard I tried I could never 'get' it. This time it feels totally different. I feel a connection with the cards and can really 'hear' them speaking to me. I never had that before. I bought some basic ones to start with and yesterday I treated myself to some truly beautiful ones. I can't stop looking at them they are so magical.:)
love light and sparkles

Hi Stephano,
I do know what you mean when you say that you now 'get it' - I know totally what you mean.- I used to 'play around' with tarot cards for a few years, (& really not 'getting it') until one day I bought a pack & everything just seeemed to fall into place. Before, the cards were something seperate from me, some unfamiliar object, but yes, I know what you mean. 😉 I have a few different packs now but I still prefer the most basic/simple ones - but I think keeping things simple is sometimes the best (& most efficient) way to go 😀
The 'throwing' & 'swooshing' technique works for me well also!:D
Love & Light
