Tarot Resources FAQs
Can you really teach yourself to read tarot cards?
Yes! It is possible to teach yourself how to read tarot cards. I would even highly recommend you teach yourself how to do so even if you prefer heading to a tarot card practitioner for your tarot check-ins.
While it might be pretty daunting at first to learn all 78 tarot cards, the more you familiarise yourself with the cards, the easier it gets.
What is the best way of learning to read tarot cards?
The best way of learning to read tarot cards is to pick up your own deck of tarot cards and try it for yourself.
Use a tarot website like Emperor Tarot to help guide you through the meanings of each tarot card before learning how to read combinations and more advanced tarot spreads.
What are the best tarot resources for beginners?
Some of the best tarot resources for beginners can be found alongside a tarot deck called the Rider Waite Tarot Deck.
If you are not ready to purchase a tarot deck, online resources like Biddy Tarot or Emperor Tarot provide free and comprehensive beginner-friendly resources.
Are paid tarot classes better than free tarot resources?
That might not necessarily be true. While there are paid tarot classes that are worth the dollars and cents for their depth, free tarot resources can be as good or even better than some paid classes.
When I first started learning to read tarot cards, I was entirely reliant on the assistance of a couple of tarot forums online – which were totally free. YouTube has also been an excellent place to discover new insights.
However if you prefer a more structured learning format, there are some paid tarot classes available on platforms like Udemy, The Tarot School or The Daily Om.
Where can I find free tarot resources online?
You are able to find free tarot resources everywhere! Thanks to the kindness of different tarot enthusiasts or practitioners, there is a wealth of free tarot resources online.
Websites like Emperor Tarot and Learn Tarot offer comprehensive guides – from card meanings to reading tips. YouTube channels such as Tarot by The Numbers and Tarot Oracle provide video tutorials. For printable resources, websites like Labyrinthos offer free tarot cheat sheets. Apps like Galaxy Tarot provide a pocket-sized reference for on-the-go learning.
