Reading of The Hermit Combinations with your own cards.
Tarot reading often works better when you do it with real tarot cards. When you own them, touch them, and have a personal relationship with your deck – you leave a trace of your soul in those cards.
If you’d like to read the Hermit combinations with your own deck, here is what you should do :
- First – Shut out the external world. Set aside 5 or 10 minutes of time in a calm environment where you would not be disturbed. You might make yourself a cup of tea too. This reading should be absolutely your personal time. It is all about you and nobody else.
- Second – Find the Hermit card in your deck and set it aside. This is the master card for this reading. It is a symbol that you’d like to explore your inner self.
- Third – Shuffle your deck slowly and thoroughly. Then – discard the top card of the deck and put the next three cards before you. Those three cards are glimpses into your PAST, your NOW, and your FUTURE.
- Fourth – Look-up the meanings of Hermit combinations in the list below. These are tarot hints for your intuition. Do you find something that you recognize? Do you find something that resonates with your soul? Let your imagination and intuition flow. That’s the most important part of this Tarot reading.
- Fifth – If you are not happy with the cards you had drawn – you may try another reading. However, we strongly advise to make a break between two readings.
- Sixth – After the reading – give yourself a little reward (a bite of chocolate, perhaps? Or a sip of wine?). Say “thank you” to your Tarot deck and hide it until your next journey into yourself. A journey into your past, into your present and into your future. That’s what Tarot is all about.
