Well then, I'll tell you once again about the procedure for a standard tarot reading.
For now, let's keep to the simple one-card spread, where you draw and interpret a single card.
It will suffice for learning the basic methods of the tarot.

Now, a quick word on the deck—for best results, you'll want to use all 78 cards...
But for this explanation, we'll limit ourselves to the 22 Major Arcana.
The procedure for telling fortunes via the tarot goes like so: shuffle, cut, spread, and read.
That means mixing them all up, putting them in a pile, lining up the drawn cards, and examining them.

When I say "spread," I refer to how they will be presented. It's a concept I'll come back to several times.
...Ah, I nearly forgot about the necessary preparation before handling the cards.
Before one begins a tarot reading, one's mind must be calm.
Try to simultaneously unify and relax your consciousness.

You must also stay focused on the goal of your reading, to avoid wishful thinking clouding the result.
Once you're relaxed, we'll begin.
Place the cards face-down on the table to hide their images...
Then the client of the reading will shuffle, or mix, the cards.
If you're reading your own fortune, then you perform this step yourself.

The most common method is to spread them on the table, mixing them in a circular motion with your left hand.
The left hand is the agent of the subconscious mind, you see. Eeeheehee...
Though if you're clumsy, or lost a hand, or what-have-you, you can use either or both hands. It all depends.
When the client is satisfied, make a single pile, which completes the shuffling phase.
A "pile," meaning a neat, orderly stack. You remember this, don't you?

Now, on to cutting the deck.
Split the stack you've made into three piles, each roughly the same height.
Normally the client also performs the cut, but the fortune teller is free to perform this step as well.
Just allow the spirit to move you.
It may be your own feelings, and it may be occult inspiration...

Reorganize the three piles in the order of your choosing, and combine them into one pile again.
Once this is complete, the reader should take the pile.
Be very careful during this step. You must preserve the direction the cards originally faced.
If the client is someone else, turn the pile so the cards face the same direction that they were to you.

And now, it's finally time to draw a card. This is the spread phase.
We're doing a one-card spread, so turn over the top card, and place it on the field to the side.
In some methods, you specify which card from the top... but that's a topic for another time.
The card on the field provides the answer to the client's question.

There are a few exceptions, but in general, a reversed card is negative, and has a different meaning.

As well as four face cards—King, Queen, Knight, and Page—unlike the three face cards in common decks.
The Page is sometimes called Prince, though he's essentially a knight in training.
The four face cards are called court cards. That term will come up again, so remember it well.

It's actually the same as the Major Arcana.
Keep in mind the meaning of each card and the direction it faces, and use your inspiration to create a story.
In the Minor Arcana, each suit, number, and court type has its own meaning.
One of he best ways to memorize these is to imagine them in a 4-by-14 grid.

And now, each of the four suits' meanings, in brief...
Wands for planning and growth, Cups for love and sentiment, Swords for trials, and Coins for wealth.
As for the basic meaning of each of the numbered cards...
Ace is the beginning, 2 is balance, 3 is growth, 4 is stability, 5 is change, 6 is balance again...
7 is a new start, 8 is success, 9 is attainment, and 10 marks a terminus, or the end.

The basic procedure is the same... You'll just be using more cards.
Even with the full deck of 78, you must first shuffle, then cut, spread, and read.
