inaccurate tarot

[Jessica]

this may sound a bit strange but lately i feel like every time i do tarot readings it comes out as super inaccurate. i cleanse the deck every time and i leave it under selenite. i’ve always noticed that every time i do readings with my friends their also inaccurate. i was on fr with one of my friends and she was doing a reading over the phone and the cards just didn’t seem to make sense to her situation. could this be me? or am i over thinking it

1. Are you asking similar questions more than once? 2. Are you doing repeated readings consecutively over a few days or are you letting some time pass?
3. Are you constantly doing readings just for yourself?

I’m asking these questions because in my experience when you overdo it, when you ask the same questions repeatedly, or you are just pulling for yourself and keep pulling and keep pulling the more gobbledygook and nonsense will come out.

I find the tarot has kind of a wicked sense of humor and if you’re not listening they’ll like well you weren’t listening when I told you the truth so listen to this garbage nonsense.

When my readings are inaccurate it either needs a cleansing (which you’ve done) or my emotions are too involved. I recently did a reading for myself that I was too emotionally invested, even for friend’s readings I have to be careful.

Maybe try asking your deck some questions?

Sorry if none of these help tho, i hope you’re able to solve this problem.

I think these comments refer to a view that is just off and blaming the deck isn’t the issue, it:means you have more learning to do about reading. No shame in that, true of all of us. Blaming he deck just slows down your learning process.

Do you meditate or do something else calming and relaxing before your readings? A relaxed, neutral mindset during your reading will help you get accurate readings, and makes interpretation easier too since you’ll be more connected to your intuition that way. Also, sometimes the card’s message isn’t exactly as written in a book and you may need to read between the lines to understand what your card is really saying

Have you bonded with your deck yet ?
/ do you speak to your deck respect it yata yata ( respect as in do you ask the same questions / put the cards back if you don’t like them lol)

Does this happen with every deck you use or just one particular deck?

[delladrild]

Have you charged it? I leave mine in the sun to charge, but it could also be that your decks are being influenced by something.

Once when I was feeling depressed I was getting extremely negative pulls each time. At this point my deck was by my bed and when I asked my deck answered it yes, my negative emotions were influencing it. I moved it, and then my readings went back to normal.

Is there a reason why you cleanse it after every use? Maybe try not cleansing it for a few uses to see if that changes the accuracy.

When reading for someone else and I get stuck, I tell them. I will let them know what I am seeing and ask them if they have any idea what it can be referring to. By talking it through with them it will give a focus to the reading. Essentially you are helping the seeker read for themselves.

[Farrell-Mars]

The cards are just images to help you think through a situation or a moment in time.

They literally cannot be “inaccurate”.

You may need to step back and reassess your approach.
