People from all walks of life say they’ve experienced life-changing Tarot readings via personal study or from skilled card readers.
Here’s one Londoner’s story.
Hannah
A twenty-nine-year-old London journalist and social media expert with a degree from Kingston University, Hannah had long felt something was missing from her life.
Despite a successful blog, a stable relationship, close friends, and a beautiful home, by October 2016, “I felt like things weren’t aligning in my head the way they should be,” she reports.
During an American tour that included the mysterious Louisiana Bayou country – a centre for African-based spiritual folkways, her tour guide asked if she wanted a Tarot reading.
She’d left London seeking to understand where her life focus should be, and to come home with a clear idea of what she was intended to achieve with her life. So the answer was naturally “yes.”
The reader told Hannah she needed to pay more attention to the people around her and less attention to her own career, such as to her blog, vlog, and other online activities.
Hannah says she came away from the Tarot reading convinced that “to feel truly satisfied with myself, I need to focus on people… not on myself and my work… appreciating people and the moments without work and social media clouding over it.”
As she puts it, the cards “literally changed everything.”
Today she refers to the day of her reading as “The Hannah Gale Spiritual Awakening Day.” You can read about Hannah’s Tarot experience here.

Do you get excited about holidays such as Halloween, Christmas or Easter? Do you have fun dressing in a costume, or receiving a brightly wrapped gift, or dying eggs in festive colours? Most of us do, even though we don’t necessarily believe in hauntings, Father Christmas or the Easter Bunny.
The same principal works for Tarot cards. A Tarot reading is exciting and fun, even if you’re a sceptic about fortune telling!
Long a fun pastime, Tarot cards date from the Renaissance. The first playing-card decks were brought to Europe from the Middle East in the 1300s, and by the 1400s printed decks were widely produced. In fact, playing cards competed with devotional images as the most common uses for woodcuts. Wealthy gamers played with hand-painted decks, sometimes with added cards, such as our modern Jokers.
Because all gamblers are aware of the power of “luck,” it’s not surprising that the cards were quickly associated with good (or bad) fortune, and by extension, with fortune-telling.
The first documented Tarot decks date back to the mid-1400s in Italy, where added cards bore allegorical illustrations about such things as “Strength” and “Justice.”
The word “Tarot” probably comes from an Italian word related to “fun.” And that brings us back to the fun you can have with a Tarot reading.
Remember, you don’t have to give credence to ghosts and witches to have fun on Halloween. And you don’t have to believe in fortune telling to experience the excitement of a Tarot card reading. But if those cards predict a charismatic new lover, a happy job change, or a financial windfall – well, you just might find yourself becoming a believer!

The Ten of Swords can be a scary card. If this one turns up in your reading, try to overlook the graphic image. Keep in mind that this card forecasts closure: the end of a particular way of thinking, the “death” of negativity, or the conclusion of a disconcerting issue in your life. The card may mean the end of worries or fears, for example, in which case it heralds happiness and relief.
The artwork of the Ten of Swords in the Rider Waite deck is disturbing. It shows a man lying on the ground and bleeding from being stabbed in the back by ten long swords. Despite this ominous image, however, the card itself has many qualities.
For example, we see calm waters and dawn breaking on the horizon. Therefore, the Ten of Swords is a card of a fresh start and of hope.
Swords in a reading often have to do with communication and decision-making. Swords also stand for consciousness, the mind, and the intellect.
Tens, meanwhile, indicate completion. Like the zero or circle at the end of the number, ten shows a cycle that is complete. So tens represent order and perfection.
When this card appears in a negative position in your reading, it may mean you’ve been badly treated. If so, it’s cautioning you to let go and move on, rather than plotting revenge. It could be saying it’s time to stop obsessing or arguing with yourself or someone else and to end the drama. The Tarot is telling you to look at your own thoughts; to evaluate the mental world you’re creating.
More frequently, however, the Ten of Swords can be a positive sign. Some kind of completion is on the horizon. So relax, let go, and enjoy the new beginning!

In the traditional Rider Waite Deck, the Four of Wands shows a jubilant couple about to pass under a flowering arbour formed by four staffs placed in the ground. In the Merry Day Deck, the couple dance before a garlanded banqueting table, and the card is labelled “Celebration.”
Fours stand for stability: a positive, solid foundation on which you can build a great future. The suit of Wands has to do with passion and energy. In both decks the cards seem to show a marriage celebration – symbolising passion, energy, and a couple about to embark on a future together. In the Jewish religion, marriages take place under a canopy exactly like the one shown in the Rider Waite deck.
Fours also can mean that comfort, safety, and consistency are on the horizon. The Four of Wands, then, heralds the solid bonds of a fruitful and secure relationship that will last through the years.
Even if the partnership is not a romantic one, this card shows that the pairing involves harmony and productive work together, for this is sometimes called the “Teamwork” card. Two or more people have been brought together by fate to build something enduring and beneficial for all involved.
The thing being created might be a family. Or it could be a lasting gift for the community, such as a hospital, a school, or an arts centre. But it may also be something seemingly humble, such as a plumbing company that helps deliver clean, refreshing water and sanitary living conditions to the public.
So keep in mind that, as the saying goes, “There’s no ‘I’ in ‘TEAM.’”
Use your natural charisma and charm to attract one or more like-minded individuals – if you haven’t already! The result is bound to be a happy and productive partnership with a kindred spirit.
