Hi There!
For sure, we
when coming into a reading, as a client you will have things you desire
clarification on. Knowing how to phrase
questions well will help you get the most possible benefit from your reading.
Here are some basic guidelines.
The Tarot
will give you an overview of a situation and let you know what will happen if
you choose to either do nothing and continue the way you are going, or take
another path. The tarot itself is more about insight and guidance that black
and white answers. Open ended questions seem to work best. Here are some examples:
Can you give me insight into ...
What do I need to understand about ...
What is the meaning of ...
What is the lesson or purpose of ...
What are the circumstances underlying ...
How can I improve my chances of ...
How might I ...
What do I need to know about . . . ?
What internal and external influences are affecting my goal
to…?
What is the next step I need to take to achieve . . . ?
What is standing in the way of my . . . ?
How can I best overcome the obstacle of . . . ?
How can I be a better . . . ?
Which is the best choice between . . . ?
Asking closed
ended questions limits the scope of advice that the cards can lend. Yes and No questions can be asked, but that
then leaves us asking yet another question about what to do next. The cards themselves do not give specific
names, places or dates. Although,
general time frames can be interpreted by a skilled reader ;-) (We can address timelines
in another post!) And always, if you are having trouble framing a
question, just describe what it is you
wish to know about, what information you are seeking, and we can work together
on phrasing your question. No worries!
Keep in mind
that there are always challenges and obstacles in life and the Tarot never
gives an inevitable outcome but, rather, a possible
one based on the circumstances presently surrounding your question. Readings of any kind should be used as a tool to help you in
deciding what to do next, what you can work towards changing, and what you
decide to accept as your destiny. In other words, if you get a reading
that doesn't seem particularly good, what can you do to change that?
If you couldn't potentially change your future, then we at Spellmaker wouldn’t
be here working so hard for you and with you!
Light and Love
