Hello all. As the title insinuates I’m a novice with Tarot. However, I have studied the occult since I was in my early teens. It wasn’t a mainstream movement for me but rather from my early childhood I had perceived myself as being separate from my body. The best way to describe it is I didn’t feel like I was me in a material sense but rather a projection of something more expressing itself through matter (matter being my physical body). This is what led me to delving into occult philosophy at such a young age as church did not have the answers. Point being I spent 100% of my energy throughout the years studying philosophy and most notably hermetic philosophy. That being said I neglected a lot of other topics which leads me to this post. I’ve tried to connect with tarot on an intuitive level which should be easy for me sense I’m very intuitive naturally. However, for some reason I can’t seem to string things together with tarot even to a basic level. I’m not really sure how to ask such a cliche question in a way that captures the essence of importance to me but I’ll ask it anyway. What is the best way to begin establishing a solid and coherent reading style? Are there exercises or things that I can do to help forge the qualities involved? Lastly, what qualities should I most focus on to aid in my new endeavor?
I apologize for the length and thank all so much who respond with their personal experience or wisdom on the subject.
