I am looking to get practice with my deck, so just pm me or reply on this thread (if you aren't shy about that sort of stuff) if you are interested in getting a reading.
the other reason i want to do this, is to open this thread AS a public reading, where people who practice tarot and divination can add their own bit to the reading on a single person as we go along. for anyone who is NOT shy, and is ok with their information (depending on the question) being spread bare...that is the perfect candidate for a public reading. this particularly, unlike my private ones, may take a while to analyze (perhaps several days or sessions)...because each card is analyzed by itself and then as a whole. Its best if you don't try to ask a question that is pressed for time. I will try to include images of the cards i lay down but don't get excited just yet, i don't have access to a camera and my technical abilities are limited. furthermore, because my personal deck will not match the one i will be laying down for you graphically, outsider's perspectives will not necessarily match my own, but most of the time they will serve as complimentary information or even contrary. This is an experiment to see if the community can do a better job than a single person can at reading an individual's path. it is also a way to learn how to read the cards better, so feedback from outsiders is welcome! for whoever is receiving the reading, it is a way to weigh several different interpretations. The other element of tarot is offering basic advice that in other forms of divination is just not accessible. as a community, we would be advising you about the topic at hand. so again, just pm me...and don't expect me to read a stupid question either...you'd be surprised at how much the cards can read behind the sillyness and surprise you with an unexpected answer. in terms of a public reading, its best if you keep it fairly serious...in case later on you feel embarrassed or vulnerable by the answer you receive. at the end (and please, if you are the person seeking the answers, don't offer too much information until AFTER the final session) i would like you to reply and say if the reading helped you or if it didn't help you at all. just like any method of looking into the future, and reading the present...the answer you receive is not definite...so don't take it for black and white. otherwise, i think this could be fun and interesting and even helpful. -valkyrie
