My advice is enjoy it, come to your own conclusions about stuff. Grow your intellect and intuition. Then after you have made every card in the deck *yours* look to the influences of others. I found many things helpful. Make a list of all the cards, order the arcanum and use your talents. Grow your talents with them, and your passions.
For example, I like to write, so I cycle through cards and write poems about them. I offer this impromptu in spirit of your pursuit.
Gold-hued glance at a virgin sky,
Pack on lance and chin held high,
Over the ledge, no concern for cliif
Back to the sun, and the dog* he's with
Nipping at his legs in citrine hose;
What shall be his fate, he scarcely knows;
But commited to Journey, before its ever begun,
To fight, flight, glory or doom the Fool doth run!
*dog is a old sign for "reason" or logic.
Enjoy Tarot and grow with this awesome tool. Grow your passions, your talents, and your life.
