Okay, so I’ve been wanting to get into tarot cards for a while now. It’s just fascinating, you know? All those symbols and meanings, it’s like a secret language. But it’s also super intimidating. Where do you even start?
So, I decided to create a little project for myself. I thought, “Why not make a guide with the meanings of each tarot card?” I mean, there are tons of resources out there, but I wanted something I could just print out and have on hand. I figured a PDF would be perfect. A kind of simple explanation for the meaning of each card in the classic deck.
First, I started digging around online. I found a bunch of websites and even some books on the topic. It was a lot of information to sift through! I spent hours reading and taking notes. Basically, I was just trying to get a general sense of what each card represents. Some of the resources I found online gave explanations of keywords, general meanings, and reverse meanings. It was a good start for my project.
Then, I started organizing my notes. I decided to create a simple table with a few columns: one for the card name, one for a brief description of the image, one for the general meaning, and one for the reversed meaning. I wanted to keep it simple, you know? No fancy language, just the basics. But I found that each card has more potential meanings than I imagined, and it’s not just about explaining the meaning but interpreting the meaning in the context of the reading.
After I had my table filled out, I started working on the layout. I wanted something clean and easy to read. I played around with different fonts and colors until I found something I liked. This took a while, but it was worth it.
Finally, I had my PDF! I printed it out, and it looked great. It’s like my own little cheat sheet for tarot readings. Now, whenever I’m doing a reading and I get stuck on a card, I can just refer to my guide. It’s made learning tarot so much easier and more enjoyable.
Of course, this is just the beginning of my tarot journey. There’s still so much to learn! But having this little guide has definitely given me a solid foundation. I’m excited to keep exploring and see where this path takes me.
So, yeah, that’s my little tarot project. It was a lot of work, but it was totally worth it. I learned a ton, and I now have a handy resource that I can use for years to come. Plus, it was just plain fun! Creating something from scratch is always satisfying.
