It’s cute you saw all the definitions and truly thought to yourself, ‘That’s it? That’s everything?’. Absolutely not, that’s just the foundational knowledge you need to actually do a tarot reading. Things go far deeper than that.
There are so many ways to read Tarot, and so many variations of oracle cards to begin with. Cartomancy isn’t a craft that is strictly adheres to the cards themselves. As you’ve learned, it’s like body building for your intuition.
If your mind is more logical than fantastical, there are other ways to decipher the card meaning other than pulling from your subconscious. There are ways to look at the cards like an absolute wizard and absorb massive amounts of information based on the numbers, suits, archetypes, correlating cards, counting cards, etc.
I find the easiest way to pull this information is to allow your mind to wander and not strictly use all the tools all the time. If you feel pulled to decipher something deeper in order to get a clearer picture, you’ll think of it in the instant you look at the spread. That’s the best time to use these other tools in order to guide your reading the right way.
