How to read tarot cards series–The Hermit (Major Arcana)
I like to read tarot cards and interpret them. I like the fact that many tarot cards have positive meanings and serve as reminders which bring out the best in us. Tarot cards are definitely not evil. Tarot Decks are simply tools which allow us to get in touch with our subconsious minds. The encouragement i obtain from tarot cards are so much. And very often, i feel that tarot meanings are really amazing. They seem to describe me at a particular time. Take for today’s tarot card, which we will be discussing soon—The Hermit. It basically suggests that Querent may need some time off to himself/herself, which is what i really need now. Sometimes, when the world gets too insane, one just need some time off to clear thoughts. It sounds intiuitive but pretty hard to achieve in today’s fast-paced society.

The Empress had golden hair, like wheat and had a crown of stars. She wore a white grown which is decorated with pomegranates. She looked serene and at ease and rested on her throne which was surrounded by an abundance of grain. There was also a lush garden.
The Fool related his story to the Empress who advised him that his future will take time to build, just like a newly planted grain which requires fertile soil and patience in order to grow into a plant.

How to read tarot cards series–The Fool (Major Arcana)
From this post onwards, i will be focusing on all 78 tarot cards of the tarot deck. However, i do not encourage you to take all my word on the meanings of the tarot cards. Reading tarot cards is rather a subjective matter and different people will have different interpretation of the tarot cards. What i am doing here is actually to provide a guidance to tarot newbies who absolutely don’t know how to start on the journey of reading tarot cards. What i will try to do is to provide a bit of history of the tarot card and to provide some advice on the meaning of the tarot card. However, as mentioned in my previous post, a sense of affinity and relation to the tarot cards is really important. You need to feel the cards before tarot reading is of any real benefit to you. Hence, choosing the right tarot deck for yourself is ever so important. Take the meanings stated here and in future posts with a pinch of salt. My intention is to guide you initally but i will be more than happy if you can relate to the tarot cards and read them with confidence. The best scenario will be to actually feel the tarot cards and instill your own meanings to these tarot cards. Reading tarot cards for you will then become more and more accurate. I feel that i need to be frank with you in the beginning for you readers to reap the benefits of reading tarot cards.
