Ceisteanna Coitianta | FAQ

An bhfuil an Tarot contúirteach?

Ní bheadh baint agam leis an Tarot dá mbeadh! Is breá liom an Tarot agus táim ag staidéar agus ag úsáid go sábháilte go dtí seo le cúig bliana is fiche. Creidim gur uirlis é an tarot le haghaidh treorach spioradálta agus cuireann sé ar chumas an duine a fhaigheann an léamh ceangal lena eagna féin nó í féin. Feicim gur micreascóp é an Tarot den saol ar fad lena gné aisteach agus go halainn. Is uirlis é a thugann léargas; taispéan gach cárta cúrsaí atá ag tarlú i do shaol. ní féidir na cartaí a thógáil go litriúil agus níor cheart breathnú orthu mar ‘olc’ nó ‘go maith’. Mar shampla is bás de chineál éigin é post a fhágáil, ach ag leanúint air sin, tá post nua cosúil le breith. Ar an nbealach sin, ní féidir na cartaí a thógáil go litriúil. Is dócha, is cuid nádúrtha den saol é an bás agus ní féidir é a sheachaint ní féidir na cartaí a thógáil go litriúil, ar an drochuair. na léitheoir tarot a bhfuil aithne agam orthu ach an leas is fearr atá ag an scéalaí i gcroílár agus nil siad ach ag iarraidh ach pictúir tuisceanach agus draíochtúil a theispeáin duit.

Cé nár cheart léamh Tarot a fháil?

Má tá deacrachtaí agat cinneadh a dhéanamh gan dul i gcomhairle le rud éigin cosúil le deic Tarot nó aip oracail cúpla uair sa lá, b’fhéidir ba cheart duit sos a thógáil ar feadh namail mar níl sé sláintiúil do chumhacht a thabhairt do aon rud taobh amuigh duit féin ar bhealach. Is rud éasca é seo a tharlóidh in aimsir struis nó éiginnteachta mhór. Bí go deas leat féin agus freisin tóg céimeanna séimh chun do mhothú féin a chothú. Is féidir le comhairleoireacht, teiripe sómach, yoga nó aclaíocht eile a dhíríonn ar do chroí, agus is feidir machnamh cabhrú leis seo.

Cén sórt ullmhúchán ba choir dom a dhéanamh le haghaidh mo dheic nua a léamh?

Nuair a fhaighim deic nua, is maith liom staidéar a dhéanamh ar paca nua, cárta le cárta, chun eolas a chur orm. Is maith liom freisin criostail grianchloch a chur le chéile do gach deic nua chun fuinneamh na gcártaí a ghlanadh agus a mhéadú. Molann an múinteoir iontach Tarot Josephine Ellershaw do léitheoirí codladh le deic nua faoi do chluasán ar feadh oíche amháin, rud a dhéanaim, trí iad a fhilleadh ar fhabraic in éineacht leis an grianchloch.

Mura bhfuil na cartaí Tarot contúirteach, cén fáth go gcaithfidh mé iad a ghlanadh?

Nuair a ghlanann tú do chártaí agus do spás tá tú ag ródú leo an “iarmhar” fuinniúil a bhailíonn ó léitheoireacht a dhéanamh. Tá sé seo níos tábhachtaí fós más tusa an cineál léitheora a ligeann do dhaoine eile do chártaí a láimhseáil; tá sé measúil na cártaí de fhuinneamh daoine eile a ghlanadh idir léamha ionas nach mbeidh ach tonnchrith mhaith ann!

An dtugann tú léitheoireacht tarot?

Uaireanta déanaim Tarot. Má tá ag iarradh teagmháil liom.

Is the Tarot dangerous?

No. I wouldn’t be involved with the Tarot if it was! I love the Tarot and have been studying and using it safely for more than twenty-five years. I believe the tarot is a tool for spiritual guidance and enables the person receiving the reading to connect to their inner wisdom. I see the Tarot is a microcosm of all life itself with all its messiness and beauty. It is tool that brings insight; each individual card represents an energy or situation in life. Cards are not necessarily interpreted literally and should not be seen as ‘bad’ or ‘good’. For example, leaving a job is a death of sorts, but following on from that, a new job is like a birth. In that sense, the death card does not need to be unwelcome. That said, death is natural part of life and there is no avoiding it for any of us, unfortunately. All the Tarot readers I know have only the best interest of the querent at heart and aim to weave an insightful picture that is empowering.

Who shouldn’t get a Tarot reading?

If you find you can’t make a decision without consulting something like a Tarot deck or oracle app multiple times a day, it might be an idea to take a break for a while, as it isn’t healthy to give away your power to anything outside yourself in such a way. This is an easy thing to happen in times of stress or great uncertainty. Have compassion for yourself and take gentle steps to build up your sense of self. Counselling, somatic therapy, yoga or other exercise that focuses on your heart chakra, and meditation can help with this.

How should I prepare my new deck for readings?

When I get a new deck, I like to study it, card by card, to familiarise myself. I also like to combine a quartz crystal for each new deck to cleanse and amplify the energy of the cards. The brilliant Tarot teacher Josephine Ellershaw advises readers to sleep with a new deck under your pillow for one night, which I do, by wrapping them in fabric along side the quartz.

If the Tarot isn’t dangerous, why do I need to cleanse the cards?

When you cleanse your cards and space you are ridding them of the energetic “residue” that accumulates from performing readings. This is even more important if you are the type of reader who allows others to handle your cards; it is respectful to cleanse the cards of other people's energy between readings so there are good vibes only!
