no i not swearing lol
what is the right way to turn (flip) the cards.
turning from top to bottom would be a reversal unless its already reversed...
i normally do from left to right. does anyone do it differently or the same?

I don't think that there is any one right way with this. It is whatever you feel like... whatever you feel is right... and what you feel is proper to do. Just do what makes you happy.

loveinspirit;
I flip them from left to right, and have great success doing it that way. The way you flip the cards is entirely up to you. I've found through out the years I've had more accuracy doing it this way. I’ve seen people flip right to left and south to north.

Thank you for posting this question. I've heard a few people recently say that you must flip the cards like a book. I don't know where this comes from but thanks everyone else for saying it doesn't matter. I've been flipping the other way so long that if it were against the law I would go to jail. I've tried the other way but my wrists won't cooperate.
Peace,
April

For me it does't matter b/c I dont read them diferently reversed. I just "know" if it's going to be different..

I flip the card from right to left, I'm comfortable that way.

Consistancy is the key, if you do it right to left, do it for the entire spread UNLESS a card insists on being flipped or reversed or something.
