Do you believe some people simply aren't meant to work with tarot cards, no matter how hard they try?
I know, i know. We must have patience, study, learn from our mistakes, read good, then leave the books behind, and everything. I've done it all. Seriously. I've read different books and approaches and methods, then i've left them behind (the books, not what i have learnt) and started to read using one deck only, in order to learn said deck better. I've done readings for strangers, and for friends, and for the dog, and everyone. I'm journaling. Result: I still suck (i know i could have used a better word, but this is how i feel ).
I'm a bad tarot reader. I'm realizing i probably suck as most readings. No matter the deck, no matter the person. If i did one bad reading and five nice ones after that, it'd be fine. However, lately (and by lately i mean the last six months), i do one so-so reading and five confusing and bad ones.
I love tarot. I've been studing it since i was 13, i'm 20 now, so it's been with me in a huge and important part of my life. But maybe i'm one of these people we mention in those can anyone read tarot? threads that CAN'T read tarot. Maybe i just can't. I can collect, i can read books and enjoy it, but i suck as a reader.
Once i even thought about making tarot a more professional thing, now this just sounds laughable. I bet even my dog deslikes my readings, if she cares about them at all. Lol.
Many will tell me i should take a break, quit tarot for a while and then return. Fine. I've been doing that the last entire year. I take three months of break, start again, one month later i feel so bad i need to take another break. Maybe i should stop fooling myself and make the vacations definitive, right?
Do you feel it possible? To be completely unable to read tarot? I'm starting to think it is...
