Hey everyone, I’ve been wanting to get into tarot cards for a while now, and guess what? I finally did it! I decided to go with Japanese tarot cards because, well, why not? They looked cool, and I figured it’d be a fun way to dive into this whole tarot thing. So, here’s how it all went down.
First, I started looking around for where to even get these cards. I knew I didn’t want to go with something super mainstream, so I dug a little deeper. I found some info about a Tokyo Tarot Museum, which sounded awesome, but I’m not in Tokyo right now. It did get me thinking about the whole history of tarot in Japan, though. Apparently, it’s pretty big over there, with tons of local artists designing their own decks. That’s definitely something I want to check out if I ever visit.
Then, I began searching for a deck that felt right. I remembered reading somewhere that tarot is all about intuition, so I really paid attention to how different decks made me feel. I looked at a bunch of images online, trying to see if any of them felt “welcoming” or “in tune” with my energy, like the article suggested. It was kind of a weird process, but fun! I found one deck that had really beautiful artwork and just felt good, so I ordered it.
While I was waiting for the cards to arrive, I did some more reading. It turns out tarot cards have been around since the 15th century! They started as playing cards and then became used for fortune-telling. I also learned a bit about the meanings of some of the cards. For example, the Wheel of Fortune is all about destiny, luck, and success. It was really interesting to read about. I found it to be a great process, and I will continue to learn the tarot reading.
When the cards finally arrived, I was so excited! I opened the package and took a good look at each card. The artwork was even better in person. I spent some time just getting familiar with the deck, shuffling the cards, and trying to connect with them. I haven’t done any readings yet, but I’m planning to start soon. I might even try to find some local groups or online communities where I can learn more.
