A Daily Tarot Reading

I would look at a bunch of different deck’s cards and look at if you can connect the meaning of the card to the picture on the deck. Also, think about which deck keeps coming back to you when you think about reading tarot! 

I like the Fountain tarot deck which is fairly affordable off Amazon, but again, everyone is going to like a different deck! 

“What lies ahead?”

I think before you start doing readings, you should play with your cards. Shuffle them, feel them in your hands, try to visualize the energy that they contain, and stare at the pictures and make associations with the meaning of the card. Start with doing readings on yourself, ask specific questions (I’ve reblogged posts that suggest good queries to ask the cards!), and try to interpret it within the context of your life. 

As for respect, I think your intentions are really important while handling tarot. As long as you’re respectful and careful and intentional, you should be okay with doing readings for yourself.

That has a lot to do with numerology. 

2019 is a 3 year (2 + 0 + 1 + 9 = 12,  1 + 2 = 3 ). This means it is the year of the Empress (Card 3).

It is also the year of the Hanged Man (2 + 0 + 1 + 9 = 12 and the Hanged Man is the 12th card).

It is also the year of the World, card 21 (19 + 0 + 2 = 21).

Together, this makes quite a powerful triad that represents life (the empress), breaking patterns (the hanged man), and a major life/perspective shift (the world). It could mean that things are ripe for change and that 2019 is a year of actions that will have big impact. 

Of course, if you aren’t a believer of numerology, none of this would mean anything to you and you’re better off doing a yearly spread/card pull for yourself! 

A spread today asking “What is blocking me?” and “How do I release that block?”

The Nine of Chalices represents total satisfaction and the Knight of Pentacles represents a need for a more global view and a deeper gratitude.
