Grounding tips
Nature Grounding
Get in touch with your roots and spend some time with
nature.Spending time with nature raises your vibration, and
balances and grounds. The key tip is that vibration requires
movement sometimes too, the more you move the better your
vibrations move. So Get Active! Get into Nature and hike or
Dance! The happier you feel, the more you will draw happy
experiences to yourself because you are operating at a
different frequency. Raising your vibration is essential for all
divination styles and especially tarot.
Grounding is one of the best techniques for clearing your
mind and clearing your cards. Getting in touch with nature
can help remove negative energy. This can include earthing as
well. Earthing is walking barefoot on the earth to pull in
positive energy and release negative energy. Taking a break
from learning, giving readings is required. Grounding can pull
your energy back to you and to make you feel both balanced
and refreshed.
4.Cleanse yourself
Before cleansing your space, and your cards take a moment to
purify yourself by directing the smoke towards your body,
starting at your feet and up to your head and then back
again.You can use your hands or a feather to direct the smoke
where you want it to go (just be careful of your eyes and nose).
Tip: To get a nice stream of sage smoke going, blow lightly on
the burning sage. Keep your shell handy to collect any ash or
falling sage leaves.
5. Begin walking around your home with your sage, keeping
your intention clearly set within your mind. Where should you
start?Some people recommend that you start in one room of
your home and work from corner to corner, room to room.
You can absolutely do that, but what I recommend is to let
your intuition guide you.
This is a spiritual, intimate ceremony, so why not keep it that
way? Plus, you can’t mess it up, so don’t worry.

Tapping/Blowing on Cards
Tapping on your deck or blowing lightly on your deck in
between readings is the the quickest and easiest clearing
method when you’re in a hurry.
Salt soak
Draw in positive energy by placing your cards in a bowl of salt.
This method is called a “salt bath” no liquid is used. You can
leave your cards in the bowl of salt in between readings or
overnight occasionally when you feel energy may be off with
the cards, and the readings.salts are well known for their
energy cleansing potential.
Quick tip: the best salts to use include black lava salt, epsom
salt, dead sea salt and pink himalyan salt. To avoid damage
Wrap your cards in plastic and bury the deck in a container of
salt.

Journal
Writing down cards and the meanings is one of the most
popular ways to learn tarot. A Journal can be used endlessly
to get to know your cards and remember your cards.
A few good ideas to include are:
*Give yourself practice readings and write down the full
reading.
*Write down a card per day
*Make a page for each card - Dedicate a page to details about
the art- and meanings you’ve learned (and continue learning)
* Write 2- 5 key words for each card.
*include your personal view points on each card
Card-a-day
Draw a card for each day- keep that card in mind throughout
the day, take note of everything that card offers including the
art, guidance, what you don't like about the card and what you
do like. When i first started reading tarot. I would pull a card
each morning, read the basic meanings, throughout the day i
would think about the meanings to that one card. Another
good idea, is keeping a note pad of your “card-a- day”
challenge, after a week use just the cards you’ve studied and
do a small 7 card reading. Shuffle the 7 cards and pull one card.
Cards that fall out during shuffling, can be a message for you
that you’re needing to hear. Look at the meanings of the cards
that randomly fall out, see if they feel relevant to your question
or situation.
Note- Some readers only read cards that pop out during
shuffling.
*Not required - Turn all of your cards facing one direction
before shuffling, if you’re reading the upside, upside down
meanings alike
*Not required (personal use) - Cards that fall out of the deck
randomly facing up have a message, facing downwards (back
of the card facing) does not have a message.

learning tips! Be sure to remember that when you're learning tarot cards,
you should always go at your own pace. It does take time, to learn, many
readers still practice tarot with even 20+ years of experience, the key is
learning the art, key meanings, using your intuition and have patience as well.
Discovering your spirituality can be a lifelong journey.There are no right or
wrong ways to discover, inspire or grow spirituality or live a spiritual
life.Spirituality is very personal. Your spirituality is whatever you believe it to
be. Staying in the present can inspire your spiritual side just by recognizing
