Dear reader,
Thank you for reaching out with your question about the number of tarot decks needed for a reading. I'm here to provide you with a comprehensive answer that will help you understand the options available to you.
When it comes to tarot readings, the number of decks you need depends on your personal preference and the type of reading you're looking to do. In most cases, a single deck is sufficient for a reading. A standard tarot deck consists of 78 cards, divided into two main categories: the Major Arcana and the Minor Arcana.
The Major Arcana represents significant life events and archetypal energies, while the Minor Arcana delves into the everyday aspects of life. Each card in the deck carries its own unique symbolism and meaning, allowing for a rich and nuanced reading experience.
If you're just starting out with tarot and want to explore the cards and their meanings, I recommend beginning with a single deck. This will allow you to familiarize yourself with the symbolism and develop a deeper connection with the cards. As you gain more experience and confidence, you can consider expanding your collection.
However, there are instances where multiple decks can be beneficial. Some readers prefer to work with different decks for different types of readings. For example, you might have one deck that you use for general readings, another for love and relationships, and yet another for spiritual guidance. This can add variety and depth to your readings, allowing you to tap into different energies and perspectives.
Additionally, some readers may choose to use multiple decks in a single reading. This can be particularly useful when using tarot spreads that require multiple cards to be drawn for each position. Having multiple decks on hand ensures that you have enough cards to complete the spread without reshuffling the deck.
Ultimately, the number of decks you need is a personal choice. Whether you decide to stick with one deck or explore multiple decks, what matters most is the connection you develop with the cards and the insights they provide.
