Then the fortuneteller takes the packet of cards above his head and places the top two cards open above the head of the identification card, then takes the packet of cards at the feet of the identification card and places it on the remaining cards of the first packet on his left hand, then again removes the top two cards with his right hand and places them open at the feet of the identification card. Afterwards, the fortuneteller takes with his right hand a pack of cards to the left of the identification card and places them on left hand, removes the top two cards with his right hand and places them open to the left of the identification card, then takes the packet of cards to the right of the identification card with his right hand, places them on his left hand and removes the top two cards with his right hand, which he places open to the right of the identification card.

Next, the fortuneteller, without shuffling the deck, takes two cards in a row from the deck on his left hand and puts them open in the upper left corner of the identification card with his right hand, then takes the next two cards with his right hand and places them in the lower left corner of the identification card, open. After this, the fortuneteller, without shuffling the decks, takes the next two cards with his right hand and places them open in the upper right corner of the identification card, then with his right hand takes two more cards in a row and places them open in the lower right corner of the identification card. As a result, there are sixteen open cards around the ID card.

Then the fortuneteller shuffles the remaining cards, after which, each time discarding the top three cards with his right hand, he places every fourth closed on the heart on the identification card until he goes through the entire deck, as a result of which there are four cards on the heart above the identification card.


The meaning of the card layout.

As a result of the ceremony of laying out the cards, answers appeared to questions that interest the person being told fortunes, but these answers are encrypted by the order and arrangement of the cards, the meaning of the cards and their combinations.

It is necessary to remember well: only after the end of the alignment ceremony can you open the cards lying on the heart, or more precisely, it will be said - on (11) and under the identification card (2): they contain the immediate future of the person being told fortunes. The predominance of peaks in them indicates future troubles, and the figures will indicate where they can come from. The predominance of worms promises joy and happiness.

The pair of cards above the head (3), as well as the three pairs of cards to the right of the ID card (9, 6, 10), indicate the most near future.

A pair of cards under the feet (4) denotes what is passing, what is or will be, but will go away. If there is any figure at the feet of the identification card, which can be guessed special person, this means that this person will soon disappear from the life of the person being told fortunes.

The two cards to the left of the ID card (5) represent the past.

Two cards in the upper left corner of the ID card (7), what is currently happening away from the person to whom they tell fortunes.
The two cards in the lower left corner of the ID card (8) indicate the most distant future.

Particular importance is attached to the cards closest to the center, and first of all to the top ones, then to the side ones. The lower cards have less futurological value.

After this cycle, they collect all the cards, shuffle them and lay them out in threes: for themselves, for home, for family, then to answer the questions: what happened, what will happen, how will the heart calm down?

From this layout you can eliminate identical pairs of different colors (for example, black and red sevens, eights, etc.). The remaining cards will indicate what inevitably awaits you and what you yourself could only guess about. Now all that remains is to wait.

MEANING OF THE CARDS IN THE SCHEDULE

ACES - in a reading, they almost always indicate time; if the ace is in a place that denotes the near future, then it denotes the time of day; if it is in the lower right corner, where the distant future is located, then it denotes the time of year.
Four aces dropped at the same time mean the fulfillment of desires.
If during the fortune-telling ceremony four aces and four tens simultaneously fall out, then in the very near future the person being told fortunes will experience great joy and good luck.
Sometimes four aces can mean an unpleasant surprise. An ace sometimes signifies the house of the corresponding king.

KINGS - if you get four kings, it's a success, high position in society.

LADIES - four ladies for women is gossip, if one of the four ladies is with the card of the woman being told fortunes, this means that a woman close to her is gossiping about her. For men, four ladies appearing at the same time indicate that the man being told a fortune loves ladies' company and is surrounded by ladies.

JACKS - means troubles, especially if four jacks fall out at once, if one of them is on the heart - these are worries, the degree and severity of which depend on which cards, dark or light, predominate on the left side of the layout. With a king of the same suit, lying not even next to the jack, the jack means the thoughts and intentions of the king, and with nine or ten hearts, the king and jack of the same suit mean the passionate desire of this king to see the lady who is being told fortunes.

TENS are business cards. Four tens is the fulfillment of a desire, but not a heartfelt one. The more tens in the reading, the better the deeds and undertakings of the person being told fortunes.

NINES - especially four nines - mean surprise, whether pleasant or not depends on the nine lying closest to the card of the person being told the fortune, or depending on the cards to the left of the person performing the ceremony.

EIGHTS - have practically no special meaning. Sometimes four eights mean the strike or house of the corresponding queen.

SEVENS also have practically no special meaning. Four sevens sometimes mean intrigue.

SIXES - mean the road. The sixes located to the left of the person conducting the ceremony, above the head and under the feet of the identification card, mean the path for the person being told fortunes. The sixes of the corresponding suit of the figures located here are the path of these persons to the person being told fortunes.
A six that does not correspond to the suit, but located next to any figure, means what kind of road lies ahead for this person. Six Peak - dark, night. Six of clubs - evening. Six of hearts - a walk. Six of diamonds is a small close path.
Four sixes mean fulfillment of desires.

The predominance of small cards in the layout means a bleak time, lack of money, gray days, especially if the small cards are concentrated to the left of the person conducting the ceremony in the near future.

They say that in order to tell fortunes with cards, you need a special talent - “connection with the subtle world.” This is partly true; in fortune telling you should always rely on your intuition, otherwise you won’t be able to figure out the interpretations. But turning to a regular 36-card deck can be very simple. There are even special fortune telling, designed for non-specialists: you mentally ask a question, pull out one card from the deck and see its meaning.

To get a detailed answer to your question or predict the future, you need fortune telling with layouts. There are a great variety of layouts, and some of them will not be the same as usual. Fortune telling on cards should be done according to the rules that best suit your temperament. Check the reference book, practice as often as possible, and you will choose your most suitable layout and learn the meanings by heart.

But it’s worth reading Tarot cards on your own, unless you are going to devote part of your life to them. Some of the Tarot decks are even capable of independently influencing the fate of their owner, and in order to interpret their meanings, you need to get acquainted with astrology, runes, medicinal plants, mythology, etc. But this deck can say even more than you would like to know.

Never ask cards the same question in a row if their answer does not satisfy you the first time. Better repeat

Many people have at least once thought that it would be great to know more than everyone else and be able to look into the future. It turns out that each of us has it.

Fortunately, today there are various layouts that can be performed even by beginners. In this article we will look at fortune telling by cards: layouts and meaning of cards.

During the time of our ancestors, the magic of fortune telling was known to at least one member of the family. In most cases, it was an elderly woman.

Before making an important purchase, making a fateful decision, starting sowing or harvesting, this woman was asked to make card spread, which showed how well the situation would develop. Then fortune telling played a huge role in people's lives, and its results were never in doubt.

Card layout “What was and what will be..”

Fortune telling on cards on the topic: “What happened, what will happen, how the heart will calm down” have always been extremely popular among girls. This alignment appeared a long time ago, with its help you can find out the features of your past and future, as well as receive practical advice on how to improve the current state of things in your life.

Fortune telling was actively used by our great-grandmothers, although, it should be noted, since then there have been some modifications in the meanings of the cards, but its meaning remains the same.

Now let's look at how to correctly perform fortune telling:

• the best time to conduct it is at night. You will need to thoroughly shuffle all the cards from the deck;
• then remove the first five cards with your left hand towards you and lay them out on the table surface;
• repeat the described manipulation again;
• perform the same action again, while one of the cards must be set aside separately. As a result, you will receive 5 piles of cards, each with 3 cards and one will be placed separately.

The cards are interpreted as follows:

• 1 stack– characterizes you as a person;
• 2 stack– will shed light on your worries and worries that torment you;
• 3 stack– your home, loved ones and relatives;
• 4 stack– events of the past;
• 5 stack- future events.

And the most last card will tell you how the thing you are thinking about will end. From her you will receive the main recommendation.

Fortune telling for the fulfillment of what you want

The deck of cards is shuffled well, then you remove the cards with your left hand, think about your secret desire. Then the cards are laid out one at a time in four piles, with the back facing up.

Then take the first pile on the left side, turn it face up and remove all the cards except the first ace. Do the same with all the stacks of cards until they are all connected together.

The resulting pile should be divided into three parts, with the cards facing up. Then repeat the previous manipulations (eliminate all cards up to the first ace). But do not forget to turn the right stack face up each time and place it on the left one, without shuffling it.

The cards that remain must be divided into two parts and the described steps must be repeated again. At the end, arrange the remaining cards in two piles, mix well and place them in one line. If all 4 aces come together, your secret dream will definitely become a reality.

By resorting to fortune telling with cards, it is easy to understand the true state of things in your life, because cards act as an “independent expert” who will help you find answers to your questions and make the right choice in a difficult situation.

Tarot, like any system, is like a multi-layer cake. In order for you to get a cake, the various elements of the system need to be laid layer by layer, and the fortune telling process itself will only be a decoration - a beautiful rose. Well, or cherry. On this topic “how to learn to tell fortunes with tarot cards on your own” one could write more than one book, but I will try to limit myself to brief excerpts.

Choosing a Tarot deck for beginners

The first thing to do is choose a deck. Since you have decided to learn tarot fortune telling on your own, I advise you to choose a popular deck that has enough materials and whose symbolism is clear to you at first glance at the card. In this article I will refer to the Rider-Waite Tarot and similar decks (Universal Tarot and others like it). Subsequently, when you master the system, you can change the deck to any one you like. If you immediately choose “Tarot of Enchanted Frogs in the Ryazan Forest” (I’m fantasizing), keep in mind that you will have to invent your own interpretation system.

The simplicity of the plot in the picture will be a hint for you if you completely forget the description from the interpreter. However, you will only need a strict connection to the interpreter at first.

Methods of interpretation

System

When you have a certain system that you stick to. And, in principle, it is enough for you to know the serial number of the card and the suit in order to give the answer.

Intuitive

When you look at the picture depicted on the map, images are born in your mind that you verbalize.

Synthesis of systematic and intuitive approaches

This method inevitably comes to any person who has chosen the first approach to the tarot over time.

I advise using the third, but relying, especially at the very beginning of practice, on the first. In this article I will adhere to the theory that you want to study the tarot as a system. In order to tell fortunes with tarot, you must have the meanings of the cards in the “firmware”. And, unfortunately, cramming interpreters will not help here. But still, I want to dispel your fears that tarot is difficult, and tell you that you already know a lot about the meanings of the cards.

How to learn to read Tarot on your own. First try

If you want to learn how to tell fortunes with tarot cards from scratch, then do just that right away. Ask some question that interests you, not too important, the answer to which you can more or less guess. Take any card from the deck, look at what is shown on it and interpret what is shown in the picture, do not be afraid to make mistakes.

For example: “How does Petya treat me?” We draw out the King of Wands (in my example, this is the King of Wands from the “Universal Tarot”). And we describe the card: It seems to me that this is an active person, he is cheerful, because the colors on the card are bright - yellow and orange, it feels like he wants to get up and do something, go somewhere, perhaps commit an action. Most likely, he is a leader, a crown on his head speaks of power, etc. Next, we relate this description to the question about Petya.

Well, for example, Petya is determined towards me, interaction with me gives him a surge of energy, perhaps he wants to do something. Don't be afraid to make mistakes. Practice has shown that the meanings of the cards are easily read from the picture. At one of the classes, I asked to describe the qualities of the character and the sensations that the image on the card evokes of people who had absolutely no understanding of tarot at that time. Practice has shown that two or three people jointly produced a description very similar to the meaning of a card from a tarot interpreter.

And then - this important point– you open the interpreter and read the description of the card. Pay attention to how accurate you were in your description. And, of course, notice where you went wrong. How does your first interpretation compare to the meaning of the card? Approach this analysis critically, but don't beat yourself up for not getting to the heart of the map.

To the meaning of the card that you understand and verified for accuracy by the interpreter, you gradually need to add various elements of the system. Remember the cake analogy? Let's now figure out what layers it consists of.

Basics of Tarot divination. What is important to pay attention to

Elements

It is believed that tarot, astrology and alchemy are based on the concept of the elements. The minor arcana are divided into four elements. In order to understand the tarot, you need to understand how one element differs from another. And the fact is that these differences are fundamental. Fire - Wands, Earth - Pentacles, Air - Swords, Water - Cups (but not in all systems the correspondence of suits to elements is such, be careful).

Conventionally, Fire and Air are considered active and masculine elements, and Water and Earth are conditionally feminine and passive. Water and Fire are emotional (Fire has external emotionality, Water has internal emotionality), and Earth and Air are intellectual or rational. You will find a description of the elements in any tarot reference book. But in order to learn fortune telling with tarot cards for beginners, it is important to connect your book knowledge with real experience.

Let's take the suit of Fire, which was the card from our example about Petya. What associations and word-symbols do you have when you remember a real fire? Bright, fiery, impulsive, active, hot? Gradually add your knowledge of the elements to the interpretation of the map.

Numerology

From one to ten. What do you mean by unit? One? Ego? I? Self? Indivisible? Whole? Start? I suggest you first contact your rich man life experience and knowledge, and then study the interpreter, of course, correcting yourself in those moments where you were mistaken in understanding what is, for example, “one”. And now pay attention on the card not only to the suit, the associative series that evokes the image, but also to its serial number.

Color

Yellow color, on any map. What do you associate it with? Joy, sun, activity, energy. Well, and so on. What characteristics does it add to the meaning of the card? Do the same exercise with the rest of the flowers.

Symbols, objects, plants, animals

Tarot is not a simple system; knowledge was often encrypted in one or another symbol that was not understandable to the uninitiated. But subconsciously we understand and read most of the symbols. What do you associate with grapes that appear on several cards? With fertility and abundance? And the dog? And the clouds? And now, when you see grapes or a dog on the map, first look into your subconscious, perhaps some information is already stored there. And then read about the symbol you saw either in the card description or in the encyclopedia of symbols. Tarot is not as complicated as it seemed at first glance.

Rank

From Page to King. Rank matching indicates the level of maturity of the character on the card. And also figured cards can mean characters expressing the features of the suit to which they belong.

How to correctly lay out Tarot cards for fortune telling and how to charge the deck

And get into a state inner silence. This is perhaps the most difficult and most important thing to learn. At least at the moment when you draw cards from the deck, you should not be disturbed by any thoughts or states generated by thoughts.

And the best and most proven way to charge a deck is to understand the meaning of the cards that are in it.

Simple Tarot card spreads for beginners

The simplest and at the same time the most complex tarot card layout for beginners is for one card. You ask a question (oh, how to ask questions correctly is a separate topic, the main thing is to try to make the question correct and not vague), and as an answer you draw one card. When you are more or less fluent in the meaning, you can connect one or two more cards to this card, clarifying the meaning of the first. Combine the meanings of the cards, at first you will not understand anything, but then you will get used to it, and this procedure will be easy.

Therefore, if you are a beginner tarot practitioner and have just moved on from the question “how to learn to tell fortunes on tarot cards on your own” to learning fortune-telling, pay attention more attention the meaning of the cards, not their number.

A technique that will help you learn to freely navigate the interpretation of cards

The basis of any Tarot divination practice is gradualism and regularity. Once you've mastered enough cards, like at least five, you can practice making up stories based on the meanings of the cards you're familiar with. Especially if you are still afraid to go to real people with an offer to tell fortunes.

Create a character. For example: Ivan, 25 years old, designer. And take out three cards that will symbolize the successive events in Ivan’s life. Make a story based on them. How to lay out cards with this technique - three cards in a row. The first card is the beginning, the second is the continuation of the story, the third is the conclusion.

We draw three cards to Ivan and look. I got 4 cups, an Emperor and 2 swords. Our story will begin with the fact that now Ivan is disappointed in life, and most likely due to problems in love, perhaps he broke up with his girlfriend. He is still sitting and observing what is happening in his life, or rather what is not happening, of course, in such an upset state there is no inspiration that he needs for work, because he is a designer... You can continue on your own.
