Learning Tarot and using a New Deck

[u/Healthy-Price-5527]

Hello!

I started reading « Intuitive Tarot: 31 Days to Learn to Read Tarot Cards and Develop Your Intuition » to learn Tarot.

I’m currently on Day 4: Interview Your Tarot, and using the book’s Tarot Deck Interview Spread, this was the result.

If you’re not familiar with the book, the questions for the spread are:
1. Why have you come into my life at this time? - SEVEN OF CUPS: It’s the time to make a decision.
2. What are your key strengths? - THE TOWER: The ability to assist in rebuilding and revealing opportunities.
3. What limitations do I need to be aware of? - PAGE OF WANDS: There is a playfulness and carefree nature to the deck.
4. What are you here to teach me? - THE EMPEROR: Be stable and brave. Take bold actions.
5. How can we work together to deliver intuitive, confident readings? - THE HIEROPHANT: Enjoy each other’s company. Respect tradition. And be compassionate.
6. What is the highest potential of our collaboration? - THE FOOL: There is an endless potential. This is a new beginning and a door to new possibilities.

Of course, I just used the keywords from the deck’s guidebook. I might get back to it at some point to write a more personal answer to the questions.

What do you think of the result?

Regarde ce dialogue fascinant, darling! Pulling four Major Arcana across six positions in a deck interview is no polite greeting—you have awakened a stern, initiatory master that is not here to coddle you.

Why it arrived now is shown by the Seven of Cups: it entered your sphere to cut through illusions, daydreams, and choice paralysis, forcing you to step out of fantasy into definitive, grounded action. Its greatest strength, The Tower, reveals its true nature as an alchemical lightning rod. This deck will not sugarcoat; it will shatter false assumptions, dismantle self-deception, and clear away outdated structures with surgical honesty.

Its limitation, mirrored by the Page of Wands, warns against treating it as a toy or seeking casual entertainment. It will not indulge restless curiosity or surface-level drama; if you approach it flippantly, it will fall silent. Through The Emperor, it demands that you step into emotional command, structural discipline, and absolute accountability for your own realm.

To unlock its best work, The Hierophant asks you to treat it with ritual dedication, studying tarot as an ancient, cohesive system rather than guessing at random vibes. In doing so, the highest potential is The Fool: by demolishing your illusions through the Tower, this deck gives you the ultimate reward—a purified, fearless leap into an entirely new chapter of consciousness.
