Tarot Cards

So, awhile ago, I broke down and bought myself a deck of tarot cards.  There are so many decks to choose from!  I had no idea until I browsed through Amazon (my favorite website).  I ended up purchasing The Steampunk Tarot set.  (I have a slight obsession with all things steampunk)
The set included a gorgeous set of tarot cards and an equally beautiful manual.

 The manual's been a great help since I had absolutely no friggin' clue what I was supposed to do with these cards.  (I've been studying and have a basic idea of what to do :)
I've been trying to do a reading every day.  Most of the time it just ends up being a Card O' The Day thing.  I draw a single card that is supposed to be a guide for my day.  Sometimes, I find it helps.  Most times, I don't understand.
So, I will try to post my Card O' The Day reading each day.  I'm a space-cadet and cannot guarantee this will really happen.  But I'll try my hardest!
I've also tried to do a couple of spreads: Three-Card Draw, Celtic Cross, and a Lost Item Spread.  Each time I do a spread, I will take a picture of it and explain how it goes.
I've acquired a few favorite cards: The Hermit, Death, Page of Wands, Two of Swords, and The Hanged Man.

The Hermit:  "To see the glow of your own light, go into the dark."
















Death: "The gentle silence of death takes all you sorrow, transforms it, and gives it back to you as love."

Page of Wands: "Yes, I have a very cool weapon. Yes, I know how to use it. No, I'll do it when I'm good and ready."

Two of Swords: "La-la-la-la-la-la-la - I can't hear you. Just a bit occupied at the moment. Please go away."

The Hanged Man: "A little shift in perception, that's all that was needed."



If anyone has stories, experiences, anything to do with tarot... I would LOVE to hear about it!
Comments make me very happy :)
