Thirteen
Okay. I'm getting votes to continue on. What I figure is that we now have to get a little interactive. What I want to do first is get everyone comfortable with the cards. Ask a few questions, play a few games, kind of like "getting to know you" with the cards. Then, we'll move into spreads and see what happens.
So here's your first assignment/question. No essays and no multipule choice Strictly fill in the blank stuff. Remember there are no wrong answers and you're encouraged to peek over everyone else's shoulders and read their answers. Just post them here. The more, the better:
Every Tarot reader has some cards in a deck that they love, and some they don't for whatever reason. I want you to go through your favorite deck, and pick out the card you like the least (or dislike the most, one that bothers you, troubles you, annoys you....however you'd phrase it).
Now I want you to do two things:
1) Ask yourself why that card bothers you. What problem do you have with it? Even if you already know the answer, clarify it for yourself.
2) I want you to examine that card and it's meaning (go ahead and use what we've discussed in Tarot Basics if you like, or any other source) and find one really positive thing to say about it. (Note: Saying that the artwork is nice does NOT count!) What is one truely excellent trait/meaning it has?
We'll give you guys a few days on that assignment before moving onto the next. Look forward to reading your answers. They should be interesting.
