The Easiest Way to Learn the Tarot–EVER!!

With computers and AI and soooooo much on TV, why should you bother learning the tarot?
Isn't that old-fashioned superstition anyway? It sounds hard. Watching TV is easy. Watching TikTok is even easier (and more fun!). What good does it do to spend months (or years) developing your intuition, or learning what she old pictures mean?
Well, today one of my favorite students (Nicole) and I sat down and talked. I did this interview style, where I really grilled her (since she is a wildly successful NY/NJ tarot reader). We consider many of the ways you can use your cards "irl" to help you make LOTS of money (if you are into that sort of thing), help and heal others, and solve any number of problems. This is two successful tarot readers. I hope you enjoy it!

Hey! What's it like reading professionally? Do you want to read for the public?

Today, Nicole and I sat down and explained EXACTLY what you should expect when you get a job reading tarot at a shop, or when you work a booth at a faire, or when you are reading cards at a (friend's) party.

We also covered what to expect when you read at a tarot party. The problem was there was so much to tell you we probably didn't get to all of it. This podcast was only supposed to be 20 minutes, but it went for an hour! There is so much excellent advice from real, working professionals here — and this is FREE!

Of course this is brought to you by The Easiest Way to Learn the Tarot - Ever!! That book is the best textbook for beginners ever written (read the reviews, talk to any of my students—I made this for you to LEARN after all), and by Advanced Tarot Secrets (the tarot bible for professional tarot readers). Seriously, that book has secrets you won't find anywhere. Go ahead and read parts of it for free on Amazon if you think I am lying.

So, in my quest to (die poor and) give you as much free professional tarot education as possible, I am back at work making more free audio lessons. Today's session is all about what you should plan for when dealing with bosses, clients, and other readers. The good the bad, and the ugly. We hide from no witch (or evil boss).

Listen to this lesson along with the one we just did on how to read professionally, and the episode on how to get LOTS of clients — oh, and the one on how to make $20 an hour right now, if you need money right away.

And while you are here, consider helping out! We need just ten bucks a week to keep the lights on. We will get you tarot study buddies, make you a member of our exclusive community, give you FREE ACCESS to live personalized help from me every Saturday, and also give you an entire master course on tarot, from absolute beginner to professional.

All for just ten bucks a week (+ $4 to PayPal fees - once a month). We are here to help you. If you are at all serious about learning the tarot, and reading like a professional (accurately, helping others, and getting paid), come join us. Head over to easytarotlessons.com and help us help you. In fact, you can even start for a dollar. Your first month is on us. Just one dollar gets you in.

Thanks for being here! (really)

Episode 5: What actually happens during a tarot reading?

Hi again! Micki gave us a list of questions to answer. If YOU have any questions, just send me a note at [email protected] and let me know you want us to answer them on the show.

Today we stepped back to examine what happens during a reading and some of the essential parts of being a *great* tarot reader. There is far more to this than memorizing card meanings or formulas (like the Christianized Kabbalah or forcing numerology into the tarot). Some things work better than others, and some things just don't work.

This is why we do this series. This is why we give these lessons away for free. If the world is going to have better tarot readers, we need to train people the fine art of divination. It is work. It takes practice, and a skilled tarot reader is worth the $60 to $150 an hour that the "average professional" charges. The best readers in the world charge more than that—and are worth it—but they are hard to find as they already have exclusive clienteles and don't need to prove themselves to the rest of us.

In any case, today's session was filled with personal anecdotes on how to avoid many of the problems we see tarot readers committing over and over AND ALSO some things you should be doing that will make your readings better.

We try to keep these sessions casual and fun, because mastering the tarot is a LOT of work. Lessons can be found at easytarotlessons.com, so we want to be a bit more entertaining here. Thanks for being here!
