I feel a little more “tired” when reading more than 6 cards in a spread. I wonder why.

Is it because I’m still relatively new to tarot reading? (I got my very first deck a couple weeks ago iirc.)

For now I keep to a minimum of three in a spread, then getting two more from a deck for clarification or a minimum of three in a spread from one deck, then three from another. (My decks are Oriens by Ambi Sun and Labyrinthos app’s Golden Thread.)

There are also days when I feel this strange, kinda “dizzy”-ish feeling after doing a kinda long reading in a day or after reading for a few consecutive days. When this happens, I take a break for a day, then read again the next, when I feel better.

I’m not sure if this has something to do with my personal background: From my early teens till about 2018 I was an active Pentecostal Christian, and ofc y’all know what those people say about tarot. Anyway, I got disillusioned with religion that I was just attending for the sake of attending church till COVID became a pandemic. I haven’t returned to church since and have expressed to my mom at least that I don’t like going to church anymore.

Anyway, in case this helps, my method of “cleansing” the cards is doing some mindful breathing/meditation before I read. For now, I read for myself and my own questions.

Thanks in advance :))

Here’s a thread about it, https://www.reddit.com/r/tarot/comments/wlkjx9/feeling_dizzy_and_like_the_world_is_vibrating/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share

I personally feel you have to ground yourself, meditate, imagine yourself in a bubble of white light and don’t use YOUR energies for the cards. You want the meanings to come from the universe. Good luck!

Can also be that you’re simply concentrating hard and thinking deeply, and that can take a lot out of a person!
