Ways to use it
What Is the Pocket Rider-Waite Tarot Used For?
-
A first deck
The Rider-Waite-Smith imagery is the core symbolism most decks build on. Learn it, and you can pick up almost any other deck and read with it. -
A daily pull
Draw one card in the morning and notice how it shows up over the day. -
Quick answers
Pull a single card for a yes or no, or a fast read on a question. -
Altar and spellwork
Stand a card on your altar as the focus of a working, so its symbolism points your thinking where you want your life to go. -
In our house
Everyone in our household reads cards, and this is one of the decks we reach for. -
Who it suits
It suits beginners and art lovers, and it makes a good gift. -
A new deck
Cleanse it, go through the cards one at a time so you get used to each other, then spread the cards face down on a favorite surface and swirl them together like a lake. Every card gets turned every which way, so the deck starts out well mixed. Our guide to reading tarot walks through your first reading. -
Reversals
A reversed card doesn't always mean the opposite. Read it with the card's imagery and your intuition; sometimes it points to a blockage instead. -
Storage
Keep the cards stacked neatly in their box or a bag. A crystal on top is a nice touch.
