Building Your Reading Flow
A professional reading follows a rhythm. Here's a simple structure to practice:
- Ground yourself — Breathe, clear your mind, state your question
- Shuffle intentionally — Hold the question in mind throughout
- Lay the cards — Place them without peeking; feel each position
- First impressions — Before looking up anything, note your gut reaction to each card
- Read position by position — Interpret each card in its position
- Find the story — Step back and see the reading as a whole
- Synthesize a message — What is the core message of this reading?
- Journal — Write it down. Always.
