Important to remember that Tarot cards will not be able to give an accurate and specific answer to the question posed. They will not answer “yes” or “no”. Cards help make the right decision, showing what its consequences may be, but the person himself must make the decision.
You can ask Tarot cards about:
- what decision to make or which option is better to choose.
- the reasons and background of any matter.
- the current state of any situation or matter.
- advice on how to solve a particular problem or achieve a goal.
- prospects and development trends.
- cards can be requested for the purpose of self-knowledge and work on oneself.
Many people are mistaken in believing that in the process of fortune telling with Tarot cards, it is necessary to focus on the question posed - this is not so. It is best to rely on your own subconscious - because it knows better what you want to know or ask. If this question really worries you a lot, then you will get an answer to it.
Shuffling and Drawing Cards
After asking a question and choosing a layout, take the deck in your hands and proceed as follows:
- Shuffle the deck. You don’t have to adhere to any special rules. Shuffle the cards as you are used to.
- Lay the cards face down on the table, in a line or in a wide fan.
- Pull them out left hand one at a time, as many cards as required for the selected layout, and place the drawn cards in a pile.
- Fold and set aside the remaining cards.
- Take a stack of drawn cards and, taking out one card at a time in the order in which you drew them (i.e., starting with the lowest one), place them “face up” in the position of the selected layout according to the diagram.
If you choose cards “face down” one at a time from a deck laid out like a fan, then mix as you please, because with this method the mixing process is not important.
If you are using "reversed" cards, it is better to scatter them on the floor or table and shuffle them in circles using both hands so that they can turn in one direction or the other.
If you find it difficult to determine the meaning of a card, rely on your intuition. The peculiarity of Tarot cards is that at any moment you yourself can discover a new meaning of the card.
You should not lay out cards on the same question several times in a row (except for clarifying the situation). If you didn’t like the first layout, then by laying out the cards again, you will not achieve anything - you will not improve the situation.
Important to remember that the time frame of the layouts is limited to the essence of your question. Those. if you are asking a question about what is happening directly at the moment, then this period of time may be limited to several weeks. If the issue is “long-term,” then the time frame will correspondingly become significantly larger.
It is important to know that interpretations obtained with the help of Tarot cards should be taken seriously, and it is also better to follow their advice. However, since absolute truth does not exist in our world, then, of course, the Tarot does not contain it.
It should be remembered that no alignment obliges anyone to do anything: it only shows a trend that will only come true if a person continues to act as he is now. If, taking into account the prospects opened to him thanks to the Tarot, he chooses a different path, then this tendency will naturally disappear.
A distinctive feature of Tarot cards is that they allow you to tell fortunes about absent people, provided that you have the permission of this person or a justified interest in him. This often happens when doing love fortune telling for your partner.
Important: cards must be pulled out with the left hand - it is closer to the heart. Also, modern research confirms that the left side of the human body is more sensual and intuitive.
It is also permissible for another person (whom you trust) to draw Tarot cards from the deck - this makes sense if the questioner is very excited or has too much hope for his question.
How to interpret cards?
To better master the language of images and symbols offered by Tarot cards, daily exercises are necessary. To do this, it is useful to draw a card of the day, a card of the week and a card of the month. How it's done? Every day in the morning you draw yourself one card (at first only from the 22 Major Arcana, and then from all 78), and one more at the beginning of each week and month. Then you need to see how the themes of these cards will manifest themselves in your life. So, for example, the Arcana of Death may mean that your wallet will be stolen (forced separation), and the Hanged Man - that you will not be able to find the keys to your car for a long time (slowing down the progress of things). This way you will gradually learn to understand the “everyday” language of cards better and better.
Interpretation of cards
Individual cards
You should begin to interpret cards by determining the meaning of each card in the position it occupies in the layout. You will find the meaning of the positions in the description of the layouts. The meaning of the card is in the “key words” related to it, in the column that most matches the meaning of your question. Once you have found the appropriate keywords, try modifying them so that they correspond to the meaning of the position in which the card is located.
At first, most likely, this will turn out poorly for you: one thing is written about the card, another is written about the position, and everything doesn’t fit together. But don't worry, just move on to the next card. Having examined all the cards in their positions, you will most likely be able to understand in the first layout what each card means for you in a given situation.
There are layouts in which it is better to interpret the cards not by position (first, second, etc.), but in a different order.
The big picture
Having finished analyzing the individual cards, you need to put them together into an overall picture. Try to formulate for yourself the general conclusion of the entire layout. If some cards “do not fit together,” you should not try to smooth out these discrepancies. Our lives are full of contradictions, and the same applies to cards. The layout is not embroidery, in which no knots should be visible, but advice to you in your situation. Understand this, and then the “knots” will sooner or later unravel.
Reversed cards
Many tarot readers give inverted cards, that is, those that lie upside down, a completely different meaning. There are also those who do not pay attention to this, but simply rearrange the turned over cards “correctly”. Neither one nor the other is a mistake, it’s just that each fortuneteller must decide for himself before the start of the session whether he will take into account the inverted cards or not. You will have to decide this yourself. Whichever option you like, use it. Just remember that the decision must be made every time in advance, before the session, whether you will take into account the inverted cards or not. If you do, it’s better to mix the cards by scattering them on the table or on the floor and “moving” them in circles so that they fold with their heads and feet in different directions.

2. The true, unconscious motive for moving. Here you need to look at how 1 and 2 relate to each other. If they are too far from each other, then, most likely, the desire to move has not yet been formed and is spontaneous, or there is some kind of internal conflict.

Plans for the future:
"Playing the Fool" layout
The Play of the Fool layout is a simple series of cards that allows you to consider the development of events in chronological order. In addition, it shows at what stage of this development the questioner is, what he has already overcome and what remains to be done. Thus, it is better suited than other arrangements for analyzing long-term development processes. But it is difficult to interpret because the individual positions do not have names, and the meaning of each card follows from the previous one. Another difficulty is that each map may correspond to a different period of time than its neighbor. The layout shows only the sequence of events, but not their timing. The main difficulty lies in the habitual (and completely incorrect) idea of people that their life should have some kind of logic. Playing the fool just shows that life is full of contradictions, deviations and delusions, detours and new beginnings.

Tarot for beginners. You have decided to learn how to read Tarot. Where to begin? And, most likely, the first thing you did was to passionately interrogate the all-knowing Yandex or Google about
- what tarot cards to buy for beginners,
- where to start learning Tarot,
- Tarot deck for beginners,
- Tarot began,
- Tarot cards for beginners,
- Tarot interpretation for beginners,
- Books about Tart cards for beginners
etc. About tutorials on Tarot, about how to learn how to read Tarot readings on your own, what you need to do for this and what you don’t need to do -.
The best tarot cards for beginners are the Rider-Waite deck with drawings by Pamella Colman Smith. Proven by more than 100 years of practice. In addition, it is with this deck that Tarot masters recommend that beginners learn the basics of Tarot, and it is also with this deck that most of the really good self-help books on Tarot have been written.
In this article, let's touch on topics related to layouts.
- Tarot spreads for beginners with interpretation,
- Simple Tarot spreads for beginners,
- Interpretation of Tarot cards for beginners, etc.
Let’s bring some clarity to the terms “Tarot card meaning” and “Tarot card interpretation.” It is appropriate to talk about the meaning when we simply mean a particular card (this is for a fortuneteller). We talk about interpreting a card when this card is already in some layout. Otherwise, we can say this: the fortuneteller uses the meanings of the cards (for himself) in order to interpret (for the questioner) them in the layout.
Tarot for beginners
For those who better assimilate information from videos, there are 3 videos with a fairly detailed interpretation just below. The simplest Tarot layouts for beginners are Tarot triplets. A triplet Tarot spread is simply 3 cards laid out in a row. You can set the names of the positions yourself. The most popular options for naming positions in triplets:
If you are interested in the schedule for three cards for the future then it might look like this
- The next 5 years - The next 5 years - And another 5 years.
Those. you determine for yourself the time period that interests you and divide it into three parts. Accordingly, if you are interested in what will happen in the next 30 years, then instead of 5 years you say 10 years. BUT, you must admit, it is quite difficult to describe 5 years of life (and even longer periods of time) with one card.
Let me explain with an example. There are many literary works that tell about the life of travelers who found themselves on a desert island and lived there for a long time. Throughout the novel, the life of a person on this island is described. For example, the famous Robinson Crusoe. And so you make a three-card layout for the life of Robinson Crusoe.
And, for example, the Knight of Pentacles (trade) - HERMIT - 10 of Pentacles (family, inheritance, clan, material well-being) falls out. All those years that he spent on the island, everything that he had to overcome, everything that he had to learn, that he had to endure - the tribes of cannibals, the meeting with Friday, the attack of pirates and much more will be described by the HERMIT card. Loneliness, isolation, withdrawal from the world. Will this map reflect the whole picture???
Conventionally, we can say that when you make a layout on Tarot cards for the future on three cards, you determine the “average temperature in the ward” (someone has already died and cooled down, someone has a fever of 40 * C, but the card does not say about this, she only says that the average temperature in the ward is 36.6*).
Tarot spread for the near future with three cards
Will give you a more detailed picture. For example:
- The next 2 weeks (2 months) – The next 2 weeks (2 months) – And the next 2 weeks (2 months).
You will get even more detailed information if you narrow the scope of the question even further. For example,
- What will happen At work c The next 2 weeks (2 months) – The next 2 weeks (2 months) – And the next 2 weeks (2 months).
There are three cards for the situation - you want to determine the trend in the development of the situation. In this case, the positions can be named as follows:
- Past-present-future (your income / your relationships / your job, etc.)
And then you can see
How cloudless is your future (Is there something in the present that you don’t even suspect that will cause you a lot of trouble in the future. Although now it seems to you that nothing foretells deterioration.)
If you find something in the layout that worries you, you can get additional cards and find out in more detail what exactly the problem will be.
- What needs to be changed – What to keep/maintain as is – What you can ignore at all.
- What can I change – What shouldn’t be changed – What can’t I change (accordingly, you must somehow adapt to this, or find a way to get around it)
- This activity/direction/action will bring the greatest benefit/popularity – This activity will bring more harm than good – This activity is simply a waste of time and money. Or
- Where to start – How to continue – How to finish.
- Important – Urgent – Useless/unnecessary
- I have to do this myself - This can be entrusted to someone - This can be ignored.
Tarot spread for three cards for relationships, incl. for love
The simplest option for naming positions in a layout
- What he thinks – What he feels – What it looks like in reality
- What he says – What he thinks – What he does
- What he/she likes about me – What he/she doesn’t like – What he/she doesn’t care about
- What he likes – What he would like to change – What he is ready to put up with / What he is ready to accept as is
- Why he wants me to appreciate him - What he wants me not to notice in him - What he doesn’t mind changing in himself with my help
- What he wants to be responsible for in our relationship - What he will avoid responsibility for - What he will be responsible for as a routine, without enthusiasm, but also without the desire to throw off this burden.
- What he would like for me to never change - what he wants me to constantly show diversity - What in terms of stability / variability is not important to him at all (But in this situation, you need to keep in mind that people change, and what a person wants diversity now may become completely unimportant for him in 3-5 years. Therefore, this arrangement needs to be repeated at some frequency. For example, once every six months or a year. In order to keep up with life)).
Let's pull out three cards at random, come up with some hypothetical Mr. X and read the same three cards in different triplets. This will give you a clear opportunity to see how to interpret the same cards in different layouts.
Past present Future
- Knight of Pentacles (Profit/Trade/Deception);
- 9 of Pentacles
- 5 of Wands
What can we say about the next 15 years of the life of our Mr. X. For the next 10 years he will be busy making money, most likely through trading. At the same time, he will not disdain using not very honest methods (the Knight of Pentacles and the 9 of Pentacles tell us this) And judging by the 9 of Pentacles, these are his efforts in the first 5 years and in the next 5 years he will live a fairly prosperous and rather carefree life.
BUT 10 years from the moment of fortune telling, something will change in the rules of the activity that provided him with such income. And in order to keep his income at the same level, it is better for him to study these new rules, and not try to act with the old methods, in which he has become very proficient over the previous 10 years. The meanings of the 5 of Wands tell us that he will have to relearn (learn new rules of the market). We are not talking about money here, we are talking about rules and false competence. Those. a person only thinks that he knows something, in fact, his knowledge was either initially incorrect, or (as in our case) it became false - outdated.
What else can we say about Mr. X from this setup? He did not limit us to the sphere of life in which he would like to know the future. This means we can assume that, apart from material security, there will be little that interests him in life in the next 15 years. Perhaps over the years he will get married and divorced 5 times, give birth to a bunch of children, but this side of his life will interest him little.
Past-present-future (your income / your relationships / your job, etc.)
“Three cards” layout for money:
Past. The Knight of Pentacles tells us that in the past a person actively created the basis for his current well-being. It is quite possible to work as a sales agent, sales manager, etc. Those. This was the period when the wolf’s legs feed him, as much as he worked, he ate as much.
The present. Now he is a quite wealthy person, his income allows him not to think about his daily bread every day, and not to stress too much about getting money. BUT
Future. Some unpleasant changes await him in the future, although in the present there are no signs of any deterioration. Therefore, Mr. X needs to keep his finger on the pulse of the activities that now provide him with a good, stable income. Don't rest on your laurels for too long. Already now, some changes are beginning to occur in his field of activity, due to which his stable good income may significantly decrease.
Three Cards Spread for Relationships
Knight of Pentacles (Profit/Trade/Deception);
9 of Pentacles (Profit/Security/Craving for the forbidden);
5 of Wands (Game/Fight/Rules of the Game/Problems of False Competence)
In the past and present, relationships have been and continue to be based on the financial component. But in the near future, our Mr. X may be presented with demands from his partner on the topic - why do you measure everything with money?! Do you think you can buy me? You don't pay enough attention to me, etc. Those. he will be faced with problems in relationships that he does not know how to solve, because he only knows how to solve these problems through money and gifts.
That's all for today. If the article was useful and interesting to you, I would be grateful if you would share it on social networks.

Quite often, people who are just beginning their acquaintance with tarot cards and layouts do not know where to start. What prediction schemes to use and how to interpret them correctly. How to understand the relationship of cards and trace the chain of development of the situation. To do this, let's look at the simplest and most universal layouts that can be used for fortune telling.
They can be used for any situation or issue, as well as for any area of a person’s life. First, you should learn to interpret simple layouts with a maximum of 5 cards. You should not chase the number of cards used in fortune telling.
On the one hand, it may seem that the more cards in the layout, the easier it is to answer the question, on the other hand, this is not so. Extensive layouts contain a large amount of information intended for analysis, and most often in large types of divination there is a complex diagram of the relationship or influence of one card on another.
Before you begin the layouts, you need to choose a deck. The Rider-Waite tarot deck is considered a classic. Study its images and get acquainted with the interpretation of each card.
After this, you can study the existing layouts, write them out with a decoding of positions and rules for laying out cards. At first, before making a prediction, you can write down the position and position number of the card on a blank sheet of paper; on the contrary, write down the dropped card. It is better to always write down the result of fortune-telling - this helps to track the trend of the situation when you return.

This is a classic for 3 cards
1 – description of the past.
2 – characteristic of the present.
3 – forecast for the future.
Option 2, 1, 3 can be used to view the pros and cons of the current situation, to choose one option out of two, to view the right and wrong decisions. Where position 1 is either a choice or a situation. 2 and 3 – pros and cons, options to choose from.
For this situation, a specific question is asked. Also, for this position of the cards, you can choose a suitable interpretation of the cards, adapted to the situation or question. The most common topics are personal relationships, relationships in couples and the relationship of one partner to another. Using this layout, you can help choose a profession or make a choice between two options.
For example, there is a couple. She wants to know how the relationship with Him will develop in the next 3 months. She asks the question: “What kind of relationship awaits us over the course of 3 months?”
The layout is according to the scheme 1,2,3, where 1 is a description of the relationship in the first month, 2 is the development of the relationship in the second month, 3 is a summary of what awaits the relationship in the third month. Let's say the following cards come out:
- - 1- 10 of Swords – 1 month, possible separation, termination of the relationship in the form in which it was, the departure of something better.
- - 2 – Inverted Magician – 2nd month – you shouldn’t expect anything new from the relationship, perhaps the relationship will end within the first month.
- - 3 – 6 of Pentacles Reversed – 3 month – one of the partners is not interested in the relationship, there is no contribution to the relationship, there is no support.
If we look at this prediction simply at the current situation, with the same cards drawn, then the result will be the following.
1,2,3 – 1 – present, 2 – past, 3 – future.
1 – 10 of Swords – the fortuneteller is no longer able to change the situation that has developed. Perhaps your enemies are to blame for this. In this situation, all that remains is to muster up the courage and endure all the blows of fate with your head held high. You just have to learn a lesson from the current situation.
2 – Magician Reversed – your selfishness and self-confidence prevent you from making the right decisions. You may have made a mistake. You are not able to contain the situation; it is beyond your control due to your lack of self-confidence in this particular issue. Find inner balance, learn to live in harmony with yourself.
3 – 6 Pentacles reversed – you just have to wait until the difficult period passes. The future promises you spending money, thoughtlessly and excessively. Learn to be careful with money and plan your expenses. Be careful not to fall into financial scams.
If we consider this fortune-telling regarding the financial condition, then we can conclude that the person suffered some kind of financial loss or a difficult situation occurred that required extra expenses. The Inverted Magician also reports that in the past the person did not have financial stability. To summarize - you need to learn how to handle money, otherwise everything will be very bad.
"Cross"
It consists of 4 cards. This layout can be used to obtain information about relationships, health, financial situation, and professional activities. The layout can be performed both on the Major Arcana and on the minor ones. You can also use a full deck of 78 cards.
1 – description of what is happening, the current situation, deciphering the question.
2 – what you shouldn’t do.
3 – ways to solve the situation.
4 – development of the situation, if you use the recommendations of the cards.
Let's consider the interpretation of the “Cross” layout for various situations.
For example: situation - relationships. She wants to know how her relationship with Him is. Fortune telling is done using the Major Arcana. Cards drawn:
1 – Justice.
2 – Hanged Man.
3 – Emperor.
Interpretation:
1 – description of the relationship – this is either an already registered marriage, or everything is heading towards this. Seriousness of relationships and intentions. It is always worth remembering that everything secret sooner or later becomes clear. Relationships can be more complicated than they seem at first glance.
2 – what you shouldn’t do – don’t sacrifice yourself for the sake of others. A girl needs to find inner freedom.
3 – how the situation develops, what happens in the relationship – He is very significant for Her, influential, and can serve as a patron. Stabilization of relations. You shouldn't push away such a person. It's time to create something more.
4 – relationships develop and have their logical continuation.
The result that can be seen from the layout: despite the presence of one negative card (The Hanged Man), the trend in the relationship is positive, there is development for the better, and there is stability in the situation.
For example: the situation of professional activity, how things are going at work. Fortune telling on the Major Arcana, the cards drawn are the same.
1 – description of the situation (Justice) – you need to put your affairs in order, bring all documents into appropriate condition. Your professionalism, ability to negotiate and find a compromise with colleagues and partners, your responsibility and desire to do everything according to the rules can bring you a promotion. You are valued as a good employee.
2 – what you shouldn’t do (The Hanged Man) – you shouldn’t put up with the circumstances, if you want to get a promotion or increase in salary – you should act.
3 – how to solve the problem (Emperor) – it is necessary to move forward, you may have to show firmness and authority.
4 – how everything will be resolved (Court) – you will find a way out of a difficult situation, you will get what you are seeking. The main thing is to make an effort and not sit still.
Pyramid
There are some layouts that are used differently for women and men. This type of fortune telling includes the “Pyramid” prediction. For women, this is a layout for viewing your soulmate, viewing the likelihood of pregnancy or marriage. For men, such a diagram will tell about work, career and his professional activities in general.
That is, the same cards drawn for a man and a woman will be interpreted differently. For a woman in terms of relationships, for a man regarding work. The layout involves 10 cards, which must be laid out according to the following scheme:
1 – description of the current state of affairs, what is currently happening in a person’s life.
2 – how events can develop.
3 – hints – what was hidden, missed, forgotten, not taken into account. All this can have a positive impact on the situation.
4 – sphere of thoughts, what a person thinks about both the current situation and the general thoughts that come to mind.
5 – sphere of physical condition.
6 – sphere of emotional state.
Positions 4, 5,6 are factors that can influence the situation.
7 and 8 - give advice on what to do, what actions to take in order to eliminate mistakes and misunderstandings.
9 and 10 - what you should avoid - these are your enemies and the negative component of the alignment.
A simpler version of the “Pyramid” layout, consisting of 4 cards. It can be used for any situation. Fortune telling is mainly used to view personal relationships, or the relationships of two people (girlfriends, colleagues), or to view relationships in a couple. Prediction can be carried out both on the selected Arcana and on the full deck.
1 – general condition of the fortuneteller, manners and behavior.
2 – behavioral features. The attitude of the fortuneteller to the fortuneteller.
3 – the true state of the relationship. Comparison for compliance. This is what the fortuneteller wants, or the relationship has taken an unplanned path.
4 – the prospect of relationships, what their future is.
Example of interpretation of the layout, dropped cards:
1 – Jester (Fool).
2 – Knight of Cups.
3 – Empress.
4 – Justice.
1 – the state of the fortuneteller and his behavior – imprudence, committing stupid things, rash acts. Committing actions or saying phrases that the fortuneteller will later regret. Inconsistency of behavior with an adult and adequate person, childishness, not taking what is happening seriously. A person can destroy an existing relationship with his own hands. You should not assign more responsibility to your partner than he can give, and more than you assign to yourself. You should not provoke your partner. Don't expect maturity and wisdom from your partner when you yourself are unable to give it. You should not demand seriousness if you are not ready for it or behave inappropriately.
2 – next to such a partner you must always be on alert and in good shape. Your partner may have desires to go to the left, so you should attract him to your side, constantly interest him in something and attract him like a magnet, you should have a riddle that he needs to solve. But, despite this, perhaps your partner behaves towards you more worthy than you allow yourself. Why do you think that he can’t flirt, but you can? You shouldn’t allow yourself more than your partner. Learn to be in equal positions.
3 – description of a woman as a good housewife, mother and wife. A woman who is able to maintain a home, support and inspire her partner. But the romance is quietly leaving. But in this place comes balanced feelings, love, stability. All this is more reliable and holds stronger than outbursts of emotions and violent manifestations of feelings. Perhaps the partner expects maternal care and guardianship from his significant other, depending on the home environment.
4 – restoration of justice and the search for who is right and who is wrong does not always end in peace. Perhaps all this can lead to collapse and division of property. This card suggests that not everything is as simple as it seems. Everything should be approached with rationality and prudence. You shouldn’t overdo it, you should always look for that edge and that moment at which you need to stop, so that later you don’t have to clear away the rubble.
When interpreting cards, it is necessary to look at their meaning for a specific situation so that the forecast is more adequate and relates only to the question asked.
For a beginner in such a complex matter as fortune telling and making forecasts, any layout is not given the first time. Every experienced magician knows how important it is to put a lot of effort and effort into understanding the signs in the Tarot deck. Ancient, powerful cards cover all possible components of human life and demand well-deserved respect.

It is necessary to lay out Tarot cards only if the beginner feels well, is in a peaceful state and is ready to expand his own consciousness.
Tarot layouts for first fortune telling with interpretation have been used for centuries:
- informative diagram &Cross&;
- schedule for the near, near future;
- forecast for personal life;
- fortune telling &Heart;
- pyramid.
It is not difficult to do a Tarot reading. You just need to keep practicing
Interpretation of a simple layout
A person who has made a layout for a question of interest cannot wait for an answer. He must find it, receive it, like a mined gem. The interpretation of the symbols and their combination is more important than the correct order of the cards in the layout.
The main element of any prediction is the first card that leaves the deck. It serves as a guide, a prototype of a person who turns to the Tarot deck for advice. The clue that is hidden in the first character should not be ignored. It is the first symbol that answers questions regarding your personal or professional life.
Layouts called &partnerships& are made according to the principle of descending position of the main and auxiliary cards. The fortune-telling mechanism of such a ready-made scheme is quite simple: the first card remains in the middle of the layout, and the remaining Tarot signs lie (in three) on either side of the main landmark of any suit. The first symbol always indicates the hidden essence of the answer, no matter what area of life the forecast is made for.
Technology for the near future includes a forecast that covers upcoming moments. The near future may bring many surprises. Fortune telling for a week or two is quite simple. To do this, you should lay out the major arcana of the Tarot deck in one row. The main meaning of the layout will be hidden in the first card, while the remaining symbols will serve as additional clues. A similar technique can be done on any day and at any position of the moon.
Layout for beginners &Pyramid&
The layout, which is drawn up in the form of a pyramid, allows you to see the future in your personal and work sphere. For the questioner, whose soul is alarmed by the difficulties that have arisen, this type of layout is especially valuable. An incorrect approach to the &Pyramid& scheme will not reveal the probable future, therefore, before performing the layout, it is necessary to master its technique.
In total, for prediction you will need ten cards folded in four rows. The layout shows the essence of the answer, options for the development of existing situations and tips for solving all the difficulties that have arisen along the way of the questioner. For a beginner, &Pyramid& is a complex but accessible method of prediction.
Fortune telling with cards for beginners is a complex process that brings a lot of stress and disappointment. A person’s expectations about how the alignment is made and reality often do not coincide. How to understand the Tarot and is it worth understanding it at all?
Everyone who takes up a fortune-telling deck must understand that it will not be possible to guess the future, if the beginner’s main goal is to have fun, then there is no point in starting to study the Tarot.
The decomposed forecast is an opportunity, a weapon, advice and warning, and only then an exciting action. Magic does not tolerate partiality or frivolity, therefore, having started training, a person will have to go to the end.
The article will present the most common and convenient layouts on Tarot cards.
Fortune telling with Tarot cards is a creative process. That is why what layout to use is not important.
- In fortune telling, the main thing is how you are determined. Your sensitivity to images depends on this.
- You need to start fortune telling with one card. This is the easiest way for beginners or simple situation
- In any layout there is such a thing as an “auxiliary card”. It is removed at the end of the layout when clarification is required
- The interpretation of fortune telling should occur on two levels - intuitive (sensual) and rational. As practice shows, it is the intuitive interpretation of fortune telling that is the most correct
- Regularly laying out the cards, make personal notes in a notebook, write about your feelings about the cards that fell out. Over time, you will develop your favorite layouts that you will customize for yourself.
How to tune in to fortune telling?

- Those who have previously meditated will find it easier to concentrate. For those who haven’t done this, we advise you to practice the art of meditation
- During fortune telling, nothing should distract you. There should be no strangers, irritating sounds or smells
- Sit in a comfortable position, take the cards in your hands and slowly shuffle the deck
- While shuffling, turn off the flow of thoughts and try to clear your head of thoughts. Create a vacuum in your head and feel complete relaxation
- Be in a state of calm for as long as you want. At a certain point you will feel that you are ready to start fortune telling.
- Turn the deck face down and remove the cards with your left hand towards you

- Each card must be removed carefully and thoughtfully. Focus on every movement and do not be distracted by extraneous thoughts
Tarot card spreads
- The main method of prediction on Tarot cards is all kinds of layouts
- The essence of the layouts is the same - they give an answer to the question, advice and evaluate various influences on the situation
- There are simple layouts where there are only exact values (for example, a specific answer to a question). And there are those where there are cards that characterize hidden influences. To understand them, you must already have some knowledge of the art of fortune telling.
- It’s better to start the bastard with simple layouts. They will help you become familiar with the deck and learn to feel the cards.
- Sometimes when shuffling a card falls face up. You need to pay attention to it, as it is a hint of fate. It may not answer a specific question, but simply assess your current situation
3 simple layouts for the current situation, for now
- "1 card" layout. This is a simple layout that is good both for beginners and for those who are interested in a short answer without explanation. It can be used as an answer to a question or a prediction of the current day. In this scenario, it’s easy to study the deck and make personal notes. After shuffling the deck of cards, remove them with your left hand towards you. Mentally ask a question and draw a card. After that, carefully examine what is depicted on it. Without looking into the interpretation, feel what emotions the image conveys. Try to connect this image with your feelings. Write everything down in a notepad. Only after this read the meaning of the card and translate it to suit your situation
- "3 cards" layout. Also a simple layout that will help clarify the situation in time. The cards are laid out on the table in the following order: “Past”, “Present” and “Future”. The first card is what circumstances influenced the situation. Average - the current state of affairs. The latter is a variant of the development of events in the current state of affairs
- "5 cards" layout. This layout is more complex than the previous two. It contains additional cards that have a more intuitive interpretation. You need to do this layout after you have already studied the deck and can freely do analysis. We lay out the cards on the table in this order: “Past”, “Present”, “Hidden influence”, “Advice”, “Possible result”. “Hidden Influence” is a card that points out aspects of an issue that you have missed. You may be too focused on one area of your life, causing others to suffer. “Advice” is the practical action that will be best in a given situation.
