Tarot: Open Reading
A type of reading that doesn’t require a question is called an open tarot reading. It is ideal for situations like birthdays, anniversaries, first day on the job, prior to a trip, before the birth of a child or when moving into a new home. This is a great reading to mark important questions and to find out how things are going to fare given the changes in one’s life.
An open tarot reading usually starts by setting the mood. Both the tarot reader and the querent should empty their minds and be in a place that is relaxed. Next, instead of the usual question posted during a tarot card reading, the reader starts by making a statement. This is a sort of welcoming the message of the cards.
Then, the shuffling of the cards takes place. As with setting the mood, it needs to be consistent that both the reader and the querent keep a relaxed atmosphere, a stress-free thoughts and most importantly, an open mind. During the shuffle, the reader has to cut the cards grabbing some from one part of the pile and dropping this into the other pile. This helps thoroughly mix the card. It would also be a good idea to ask the querent to touch the tarot cards to be able to better facilitate the reading.
Next comes the spread. There are several types available but one of the most popular is the Celtic Cross. Depending on the tarot card reader, the interpretation of the cards may come as they are laid out or as a whole once the entire spread is finished. This is also the part where the tarot reader’s storytelling abilities come into play. Essentially, the main purpose of this part is to be able to tell the querent what the cards mean in the clearest possible way.
As with any tarot readings, a lot of information could be divulged by the cards and may make it difficult for the querent to remember. This is especially true for an open reading as the insight does not pertain to a single question. You may want to take down notes after the cards are spread and as the tarot reader begins to tell you what these mean.
