The world can be filled with uncertainty and important questions that can only be answered with guidance from those who can see through the veil of mystery surrounding us. Tarot readers, for instance, can help you make sense of your past, present and future by deciphering the answers to your questions in tarot cards. This form of divination can offer comfort and advice, especially in times when you need them most.
Whether you're a sceptic or a believer, exploring the world of tarot can be a fascinating journey. To learn more about this enduring practice, let’s delve into the intriguing realm of tarot card readings, uncovering their history, the process and how they can provide valuable insights into life's mysteries.
Tarot reading is a form of Cartomancy, the practice of fortune-telling or divination using a deck of cards. The first written references to tarot packs occurred around the mid-15th century in northern Italy. It was only in the 1780s, though, after the practice of fortune-telling with cards had been well established in European societies, that tarot packs were used especially for cartomancy.
Today, a deck of tarot cards usually consists of 78 cards divided into two main categories: the Major Arcana and the Minor Arcana. Each card in the deck holds symbolic imagery and meaning, making them a powerful tool for self-reflection and gaining insight into life's complexities.
The Major Arcana consists of 22 cards, each representing significant life events, archetypes and spiritual lessons. These cards touch on major life changes, challenges and transformations.
The Minor Arcana, on the other hand, comprises 56 cards divided into four suits: Wands, Cups, Swords and Pentacles. These cards explore everyday situations, emotions and challenges, helping us understand the finer details of our lives.
The querent (the person seeking information) usually shuffles the cards while concentrating on their query or goal at the start of a tarot reading session. Following that, the tarot reader chooses a predetermined number of cards from the deck, which are then fanned out and revealed one by one.
The tarot reader deciphers the meaning and arrangement of the cards to offer insights into the querent's query or circumstance. Tarot readings can cover various topics, including love, work, health and personal development.
It's important to understand that tarot readings are not traditional fortune-telling. Instead, they act as a mirror to reflect the querent's unconscious influences, ideas and feelings. Tarot readers provide advice and viewpoints, but the decision and ability to change ultimately rest with the inquirer.
From self-discovery to personal growth, tarot reading can be a powerful tool and catalyst for change. Here are some of the benefits you can gain in a session with a tarot reader:

There are many people in the world who might be sceptical about the power or potential of a tarot reading, and reasonably so. Sceptical people tend to be more practical and more realistic in their day to day lives – being dubious about a tarot reading if you’ve had no experience with it make complete sense.
But to the sceptic out there saying, ‘Just why should I get a tarot reading, anyway?’, well,of course, you don’t have to. But those who have spoken to our gifted tarot readers have found great reassurance, guidance and help in getting a personal reading from them. And if you have things in your life or yourself that would like to change, you have nothing to lose from getting a tarot reading and seeing what is possible.
Tarot reading doesn’t predict the future, and it also doesn’t mean that your life is predestined. It doesn’t absolve you of any power or control over what will happen to you in years to come. It won’t tell you that something is going to happen and there’s nothing you can do about it.
You can get a tarot reading and go away and think nothing of it, and nothing may change in your life. But you will be given information in a reading that you may find incredibly useful, and that if you let it, can make wonderful and long-lasting improvements to your world.
You can get a personal tarot reading and get a greater understanding of yourself. You can pick up on the patterns in your past and present relationships and your behaviour, and you can take put changes into place to help yourself for the better. You can find relief in knowing that difficult things will pass, or you can get the confidence in yourself to let them go and move forward.
You can remove doubts, blockages and negativity in your life that is stopping you from being who you want to be.
You can gain strength and self-awareness and hope from the information in your personal tarot reading, and what you choose to do with that is up to you. You aren’t guaranteed a change in your life from a tarot reading – that part is really up to you. The reading will give you the information to make changes, to gain confidence or to boost your belief in what is possible.
Some of the positive changes you can make in your life following a comprehensive and tailored tarot reading:
You could end a toxic relationship, or get the confidence to start dating if you are single
You could open yourself up to the potential of new love
You could let go of grief or heartbreak from your past
You could make a career change
You could start travelling
You could stop travelling, and settle down
You could remove your negative doubts in yourself and open yourself up to luck and good fortune.
There really is no limit to what is possible after your tarot reading. That is why you should get one. But the change part is really up to you. And finding a reputable reader, preferable based in Australia, is also up to you.
Wishing you love, light and many Blessings, Cecelia
Beginners to tarot reading, however, might be a bit confused about what it means when a tarot card presents in its reverse position or turns up upside down. Is this a bad thing? Should you just pretend it didn’t happen and draw again? This post will discuss the ins and outs of reading with reversed Tarot cards so that you can make a decision that’s right for you.
Even if you have never had a tarot reading before you will still probably be intrigued by what the tarot cards might have to say for you. The idea of the magic and mystery behind the cards and their ability to help you connect with yourself, your past and your future is rather amazing, right?
There are many beginner tarot readers out there who have started to wade a little into the waters of tarot reading, and there are plenty of resources online to help you with this, including books, courses, stores where you can buy cards and of course blogs. This can be a fun way to pass your own time or entertain your friends at a party or over a cup of tea.
Different tarot readers have different thoughts on reading the cards with reversals. Some are against it, worrying that it brings a real sense of negativity and depression into the reading, which should really be hopeful and positive spaces.
Other readers believe that you can still make very positive use of the lesson to be gained from reversed tarot cards. There is an extra layer of depth and meaning to be extracted from these cards, which add more to every tarot reading.
The reverse of a card enables the reader to see more light and dark in the reading, and also gives them greater ability to identify mental and emotional blocks that the listener might have in their lives.
Reversed Tarot Reading cards does take an extra level of knowledge on the part of the reader, however, so interpreting the cards in this way is not for beginners. But it can provide an incredible amount of insight to the customer.
Here are some of the things that a reversed card could be telling you:
• You are expressing more of your energy in this area of your life internally, rather than externally, and may be keeping too much inside
• You may have an imbalance in your energy in this area, in that you have too much or too little
• You may have blocked energy around this area of your life
While of course beginners can dabble in tarot reading, it does take years of training to be an expert. And much of the skill in interpreting tarot comes from the experience and intuition of the reader. As a study of all of the kinds of energy in life, a good reader must get in touch with the energy of the cards and understand how this fits with each individual customer.

The Tarot is a pack of 78 cards that is used as a Tool of Divination. Essentially the Tarot cards are used to create clear communication between the Reader, the higher self and Spirit. This connection is established using any number of different spreads or layouts used in Tarot Readings. The most Common tarot spreads used in readings include the Celtic Cross, Single Card, and Simple spread. To most people it would seem that the Tarot Reader is a ‘fortune teller’. However, most Tarot Card practitioners will tell you that the cards offer a connection to Spirit and the Source, providing a means to identify the energies presently at work in your life and offer a guide to the probable outcome based in the present or now.
How Do Tarot Cards Work?
An experienced Tarot Reader will tell you that a well-developed intuitive process is an essential tool for the successful practice and interpretation of the cards. They may also tell you of the marked increase in intuitive and metaphysical abilities enhanced by the daily use of their craft. Just one of the many tools of divination, the use of Tarot cards provides the ‘portal’ or contact point for the Readers’ inherent Psychic and Metaphysical talents.
Becoming a skilled practitioner of Tarot is a craft that combines study and practice with intuition, compassion and a genuine connection to the Source. A Tarot Reader will assist you in the asking of appropriate questions and interpret the meanings presented by cards. The person seeking guidance shuffles the cards while concentrating on the question at hand. The person then spreads out the cards and awaits interpretation from the reader. When providing a Tarot reading over the ‘phone’ a number of factors comes in to play. While having the client focus on the question at hand, the Reader connects with their Cards and provides a spread, while simultaneously forging an intuitive connection with the client and Spirit.
Tarot cards meanings
Major Arcana represent the major aspects of our lives that we have no or limited control over. These aspects influence both our external and internal experiences and transformations.

The Minor Arcana represents the mundane aspect of our lives, such as our daily activities, circumstances and situations. Each suit is representative of a certain aspect of our lives as follows:
Most of us are deeply aware that there is so much more to our lives and our spiritual evolution then what meets the eye. We all at different times in our lives, seek a connection to the Divine or the Spiritual. We instinctively understand that we are Spiritual beings, that energetically we are comprised of so much more than just the physical. Throughout history, human beings have sought for connection with the Spiritual world in search of advice, guidance and solace. Tarot has earned its place as a tool of Divination and as a means for Tarot practitioners to provide probable outcomes provided by Spirit to questions asked by the client.

Tarot reading does sound like an awfully fun skill to have – you would be very popular at parties! Tarot seems to be something that everybody is fascinated by, but no one really understands. So, we thought we would go through some of the basics but bear in mind this beginner’s guide won’t be enough for you to buy your own cards and start doing readings for other people. It takes years to be able to do that.
If you were to have a tarot reading, your psychic would ask you to choose cards from the tarot deck, and then will give an assessment of what your future holds based on what they see in the images on the cards.
Usually you will come to a reading with some questions that you want answered, or specific areas of your life that you need guidance about. The cards that you choose will provide reflections of the areas you are focusing on.
The cards that show up your reading are meant to be messages for you, about how to grow and where you need to change. They should give you guidance as to what you are doing right, solace where something may have gone wrong, and above all positivity and potential for your future.
Tarot cards have a set number in the deck, so a set number of cards could come up. The same card will not have the same meaning for everyone’s life however. It will depend on many individual factors and also what other cards present themselves in the reading as well.
Each deck has 78 cards, 22 Major Arcana cards and then 56 Minor Arcana cards which are split into 4 suits of 14 cards each. The suits are wands, cups, swords and pentacles. The Major Arcana cards are more reflective of your personality and characteristics, whereas the Minor Arcana tell more about the day-to-day goings on in your life, and what is in store.
Some popular cards and the meanings that might accompany them include:
The Lovers
The Lovers card is a strong sign that love is central to your life and happiness. The message of this card is to find inspiration in yourself and belief in your own ability to love.
The World
This card can mean growth and new beginnings, travel and broadening horizons, or positive enlightenment, or that lovely rewards are coming to you in your life.
The Empress
This beautiful card symbolises Mother Earth and can mean sensuality, fertility or pregnancy, or the union of two souls as one.
Death
Contrary to what you might automatically think, the Death card is not necessarily a bad one. In fact, it can be a positively wonderful one. Death means the end of something, but a significant change and new life lies on the other side of that.
The Sun
Also, a good one for positive moving forward, the Sun can represent harmony, unity, health and is generally the sign that something is really going right for you.
Well, it is only a beginner’s guide. For more information, absolutely contact one of our psychics on 1300 784 584 if calling from outside Australia +61 3 8888 9277. They are anything but beginners here and will give you the full benefit of their wealth of experience. Blessings, Cecelia.
Are you are facing some doubt or uncertainty about your love life? Are you starting to think that true love and happiness are for other people, but not for you? One fantastic way to silence your concerns is to talk to a psychic today to get a love reading or relationship reading.
A love reading is when the psychic gets to know you and gives you a reading of what love may hold for you in the future, and then may give you advice on how to get there. A relationship reading is when a couple talk to the psychic to get a reading of the strength and potential of their relationship, and how to move forward together.
Both kinds of readings are incredibly valuable and can give you with amazing new hope for what your life has in store for you. There are a number of different methods a psychic can use to give you an in depth reading; some of the more common ones include palm reading, tea leaves or astrology. But the one you may think of first is probably the one you know the least about; the Tarot.
This is fairly straightforward. Your psychic will ask you to choose cards from the Tarot deck, and then will give an assessment of what your future holds based on what they see in the images on the cards. But do you know what each of the cards mean?
The cards that show up your love reading are meant to be messages for you, about how to grow and where you need to change. They should give you guidance as to what you are doing right, solace where something may have gone wrong, and above all positivity and potential for your heart’s future.
Some great cards to look for include:
The Lovers card is a strong sign that love is central to your life and happiness. It may also draw attention to some tough decisions that need to be made. The message of this card is to find inspiration in yourself and belief in your own ability to love.
This one is a very good one. Seeing the night pop up means literally that your knight in shining armour is on his way or that you’ve found your soulmate or that Prince Charming is about to arrive. This is the sign of a good partner and a healthy relationship, of someone that you will treat you well. If only it told you his name and phone number that would be awesome too!
This card is a very good one for single people or those who are lonely in love as it indicates a lovely reward is coming to you in love. It can mean growth and new beginnings, travel and broadening horizons, or positive enlightenment.
This beautiful card symbolises Mother Earth and can mean sensuality, fertility or pregnancy, or the union of two souls as one. This is a good sign that as a couple you might be taking some next steps together in the near future. It could just mean that you’ll both be getting lucky a bit more often anyway!
Contrary to what you might automatically think, the Death card is not necessarily a bad one. In fact, it can be a positively wonderful one. Death means the end of something, but a significant change and new life lies on the other side of that.
If you are single or in a toxic relationship you could be very happy indeed to see Death pop up and you could gain great strength from that. If you and your partner suspected the relationship may have run its course, this card can give you the confidence to go your separate ways.
Also a good one for positive moving forward, the Sun can represent unity, marriage and prosperity as a couple. It is generally the sign that something is really going right for you. It is also a sign that you are working together in harmony and towards the same greater goals, which are healthy and beneficial for you both.
Of course, we’ve only skimmed the surface with this article. What the cards mean for you specifically takes a bit more time and skill to work out, and a lot of other individual factors also come into play. Only a gifted psychic can give you a proper reading and tell you what is in store for you.
Getting a love reading today will give you hope for the future; and that’s something we could all use right now. Simply Call 1300 784 584 or outside Australia +61 3 8888 9277.
