Common Misconceptions about Tarot Readings, Debunked

Tarot reading is not a foreign concept to anyone. We have all seen that scene where the actor walks into a tarot reader’s tent. There is incense burning, some ethnic music playing, a sinister-looking cat springs across the room, and then a bent, weathered woman emerges from behind a beaded screen, with multiple rings on her fingers, and heavily-kohled eyes. The entire scene is creepy and gives off very supernatural vibes.

Such exaggerated scenes put normal people off on the wrong track on what a tarot reading is actually like. People develop several misconceptions about tarot readers and the practice, and that discourages them from trying it out, and even makes them sceptics. There are many tarot readers in Melbourne, and they are all perfectly capable of guiding you through the various issues in your life. However, if you are thinking of going for a tarot reading in Melbourne, you need to go with an open mind and heart. Here are some misconceptions people commonly have and the reasons why you should stop believing them:

Tarot Readers are mind readers: this is actually completely off the mark. Tarot readers do not read people’s minds, and in fact that is not the method they use to try and help people. You cannot expect them to instantly know what you are there for, and you will have to be patient while the session progresses, and they start to pick up things around you.

Are all Tarot Readers Psychic?: Well, this can differ from reader to reader. Although there are some tarot readers who are psychic, not all tarot readers are. However, tarot reading cannot necessarily be labelled as fortune telling. Experts of this art, on the other hand, claim that their main ‘gift’ is the desire to help people in some way, and they have learnt to read the cards as a means to doing this. Tarot reading is an art that requires training and lots of practice. Then the reader chooses from a wide array of tarot card decks and decides on the deck most suited for them.

Tarot readers "fix" your life problems: This is an onus that you must never put on the shoulder of your tarot reader. It is not right to put the responsibility of solving your life problems on your tarot reader, as that is not what they are trying to do. They cannot be your lawyer or your therapist. You need to take responsibility for your own life, and your problems, and the decisions you need to take. However, the tarot reader can tell you more about the attitude you need to take towards your problems and how to get into a headspace where you are more welcoming of change, or more able to see clearly to solve your own problems. Most importantly, do not trust any tarot reader who claims they can "fix" all your life problems. You can be sure they are charlatans who are after your money.

These are just a few misconceptions about tarot readers that you need to know about. As I said before, when you go into a tarot reading, do so with an open mind, and with questions that you want to ask your tarot reader. Also, be receptive to their reading, and help them guide you towards having more perception and clarity about your life. If you are not able to go directly for a face-to-face reading, there are many renowned psychics and tarot readers who perform phone psychic readings. Some well-known tarot readers and psychics in Melbourne will even give you an email psychic reading.
