If every step points to a specific deck but your gut feeling says no, then keep looking because there is a perfect tarot deck out the for you.
Three Main Factors
- The Feel of the tarot Cards
- Are you Drawn to the Images
- Instant Images
Hopefully this article will surprise you with how easy it is to learn how to buy tarot cards that are perfect for you. Your first step is to get a feel for the tarot cards, pick up the package and feel the weight in your hand. Hold the tarot deck near your heart and allow the tarot card decks energy to sink into your being. Do any thoughts or questions come to mind? Do they feel right to you? When a deck is not right for you, it is not unusual to feel somewhat nervous or perhaps even slightly nauseous. While holding the tarot card deck you should feel at peace or perhaps even connected to ancient knowledge. The immediate feeling will be good and positive if the tarot deck has a chance of being the right deck for you.
Next we look at the images on the cards. Are you drawn to the images? The images on tarot card decks are designed to help you tap into the infinite knowledge available in the Universe. So you want the images to resonate within you. Can you see yourself within the situation depicted on the tarot card deck? The more in tuned you are with the images, the more you can experience the images as a part of yourself, the better able you will be able to use those images to tap into the knowledge you see.
I have occasionally heard of people who had such a strong instant report with the images on a specific deck, they we able to forget about the remainder of the instructions on how to buy tarot cards and purchased based solely on how the images made them feel. If this happens to you and you are 100% certain that deck is for you, go for it. Just do not allow your emotions to over ride what your psychic abilities are telling you. Images are very capable of eliciting strong emotions for us, but having a strong liking for a specific persons art work, does not fully guarantee the cards will provide you with the knowledge you need.
If on the other hand, when you look at the images you can not connect with them and they do not elicit a positive emotional response from you, then the tarot deck is probably not the correct one for you. This would be especially true if the images revolted you in some manner and this a very real possibility. I have seen cards on line, yet when I got into the store and actually picked a deck up, the images just did not settle right with me. This is one of the main reasons I always suggest you buy a deck locally so you can see and feel it before you purchase it.
Last but not least, when you first touch the tarot card deck, do you receive immediate images in which you know in your heart have a specific meaning. This concept is a little harder to put into words, but what you are looking for is basically an almost instant psychic event.
Not everyone will receive this instant result. You may get just a flicker of an image or you may not receive any type of image. Each person is completely different. But those that do receive the images, should pay special attention to the deck they are holding because it could well be a perfect match for you and it may be the last time you will need to worry about how to buy tarot cards.
Where to Buy Tarot Card Decks
There is a wide array of places to purchase your tarot deck at. I suggest you go to a store where you can physically touch the tarot card decks. When you purchase a tarot deck online, you do not get the chance to get a feel for the cards. You can't weight them in your hands nor see if you receive any immediate impact from the cards.
Most cities have at least one New Age store and many of the major books stores also carry at least a few different tarot card decks. I have also found them in natural food stores, especially the larger co-op type food stores.
On the other hand, if you find a deck locally you like, but want to save a little money on the cost, feel free to check out our New Age Store. Fern Owls Place is our online store and we offer almost everything in the store at a minimum of 10% off on a regular basis. Sorry for the blatant advertising here, but if we can help you save a little cash, why not.
The final decision on which tarot deck to buy will of course be yours. These guidelines can help you learn how to buy tarot cards and hopefully make your decision making process a little easier.
