Tarot Card Interpretations

82561922shufflingOne of the fun things about organizing a tarot party is tuning into tarot card interpretations with other folks who are also tarot fans! Of course our guests should not be too many, a maximum of nine for example. Nine is a magical number in of itself, meaning higher knowledge and spiritual evolution. The magical nine suggests we have fun meditating together and perhaps chatting about which tarot card is our favourite.

How to use the Tarot

A way of getting those tarot card interpretations off to a good start is getting one person to shuffle the cards and then lay out a line of nine tarot cards. Each person turns over a card and those present give their interpretation as to what each card means. The tarot card interpretations will vary and give an in-depth perspective of current life dilemmas regarding romance, money or work. This can be great fun and will enable you to really go deep into the nature of your issues, as well as enjoy your friends’ interpretations of a situation. These sorts of tarot card parties get beginners learning about how card readings actually work and how tarot card interpretations can vary from person to person, situation to situation. A tarot card party will not only see you enjoying each other’s company but will uncover a few problems that need answers.

Studying the Tarot

You could also decide to create a tarot study group and look into one suit at a time, for example the cups suit, to get as much in-depth knowledge as possible. It is fun to work out how the “Cups”‘ which symbolize water, emotions and relationships, are affecting your lives. You will soon discover what feelings you need to clear and what cards will help you deal with difficult emotions? For example, if you see the four of cups someone in the group will be feeling a bit below par, tired, a little depressed, if you see the Ace someone is excited because only the other day they met a new love and feel things will start to improve in the love department.

As you unravel the Cups, it might feel as if you and your friends are travelling through an emotional smorgasbord together. Janice, who is going through a solitary period, gets the three of cups, which means it is time she started going out and having fun at parties. The six of cups for Valerie means she has been looking back into the past when she was just a kid and now feels nostalgic. You get the seven of cups which signifies you don’t actually know where you are going emotionally and are looking for relationship solutions.

Which Cards to Use?

Let’s say your best friend Maisie is thinking about leaving her partner of many years and asks the tarot study group whether she is making the right choice. You decide to use the Arcane tarot to read for her. She gets quite a line up, the Fool tells us she is feeling very confused about how to sort out her difficulties. The Temperance card shows us that she sometimes feels it might be better to hang on a little while longer and then the World shows up in her spread, which means Maisie will be turning a corner and leaving her current partner knowing that it is the best thing that could happen to her.

Reading for our friends is a good way of learning about tarot card interpretations. The more we use the tarot the better results we will have and the more empathic we will be.
