Tarot card question

    I don't know if anyone can help.
    I had my cards done yesterday but the reading didn't really seem to relate to me and it was only afterwards when I was thinking about it, I didn't shuffle the cards or cut them, just picked out some.
    Should I have shuffled them or doesn't it matter either way?
    Thanks in advance.

    I'm sure someone who knows more about these things can answer better, but I though shuffling the cards was standard practice, that it helps to imprint the energy of the person to be read upon the spread. I know everyone will have their own slightly different ways of giving readings so maybe it's not essentiall but I always thought it was a pretty important step anyway.

    Generally, in the readings i do anyway,and most i know of, i usually hand the deck over,the client shuffles and splits so their energy is given to the deck,also,when im done, i clear the energy off the deck of whom ive just read.
    Did the reading relate perhaps to someone close to you? Did you question the reading if nothing resonated with you at all?
    Thje best advice i can give you,for the future,is if in a reading NOTHING seems to fit, you should speak up.
    I believe, you should have shuffled and split,just my opinion.
    Can we ask who you went to see?
    Im sorry to hear you were not happy.
    If you like, i will read for you, FOC of course!

    Would you? Can you do it over the net? I'm guessing not but if you could that would be fantastic!!
    I had it done at a family day in Riverstown folk park, she was a really lovely lady. I told her nothing seemed to fit and she did another reading which really didn't fit either, kept coming up with me having another child which I really don't want.
    It was only afterwards I thought about that I should have shuffled or at least cut the cards.

    It doesn't really matter I've found on who shuffles the cards the reader or the querant all that matters is the intention, ie that there is a focus on the wuestion/ subject matter. Also a reading is a two way process so if its not making sense speak up.

    Imo the "energy" or whatever you want to call it exists on a plane completely seperate to this one where time and distance really don't have any meaning so it doesn't really matter if your sitting there shuffling the cards or 5000miles away thinking about it.

    Hi karynp, thanks so much that would be great, only thing is I'm in Sligo. I'll send a pm.

    Hey there,

    I'd agree with Karynp and amazingemmet.

    I would get the querant to shuffle the cards but I don't believe that's your real issue. If you feel the reading isn't right do speak up, it's your right and you shouldn't have paid either.

    Just remember too that maybe what was seen is possible, it's just not what you can see now. I know I've had readings that at the time I thought were awful but later it all did come true.

    Good luck

    Ladybird
