When I first started, I got a deck and a beginner's book. And I flipped to each card's page for every one I drew. Boy, was that lame. I gave one reading to this guy I didn't know, just read the whole list of meanings from the book and told him to pick one hahaha. He did seem surprised and I wonder what his question was. He wouldn't tell me.
Once you start reading without books you'll see they are pretty pointless. Reading becomes fun, because now you're relying on yourself....your own talent, gift, sight, divine energy...however you think of it. And you realize you're making it happen on your own, not getting some catch all meanings from a book.
If you can see and feel each card as it relates to a person, that's strong stuff. It's your own energy being triggered, tailored to another person's energy.
Ah, I'm getting all deep here. I do like this thread though, it helps me see the difference between now and when I started. Haha, pick a meaning, any meaning.
