Here's what The Fool tarot card means in a reading, tarot spread, or tarot manifestation.  There is no memorization needed. There is no formula to figure out. This is a super-easy, super-powerful lesson.

In today's easy tarot lesson we look to see the screws hidden in The Fool card. First off, can we derive meaningful rom the NAME of this card? Well . .  yes, and no. But surprisingly yes. And what is up with that dog? Where did that dog come from? (hint: this was not in the original art, but was added way back around 1450 CE).

And why a cliff? The old versions mentioned nothing about a cliff! This was something Arthur Edward Waite changed. This is not in the core meaning of the card! But that is a clue in and of itself. We are in fact reading the modern images, not the "ancient" ones (hint: the tarot is NOT from Egypt — the pyramids are). But there is a lot of information hidden in plain sight right there in the image.

THERE IS NOTHING TO MEMORIZE. The secrets of The Fool tarot card are right in front of us. look at the way he is dressed. By the way, he has some of the fanciest clothing in all of the tarot. Did you know he was a prince? (of sorts) Also look at his bag, the rose in his hand (it is the only white rose in the [ "Rider" } Waite-Smith tarot).

We examine the secrets of this card, and also how to LEARN any card (not memorize keywords) by learning to look at the images. This is a short but powerful revelation of what The Fool tarot card means in any spread you cast. Take notes, because after this lesson you will never go back to guessing again.

Here's what The Magician tarot card means in a reading, tarot spread, or tarot manifestation.  There is no memorization needed. There is no formula to figure out. This is a super-easy, super-powerful lesson.

In today's easy tarot lesson we look deeply into The Magician card: what do you see? A guy standing at a table, right? What does that image mean esoterically? What are the symbols, and more importantly, how do the various "things" in the image contribute to the esoteric meaning? 

Without memorizing anything, we unlock the magician’s secrets. He is the nexus between the tangible and the ethereal. He stands at the crossroads of the artificial (human-created) and the divine (natural world). The Magician is “supernatural” in that he represents that part of us that is the blend of cosmic and mundane. 

This is a *very* Aries card, and he stands at the beginning of our journey through the tarot, from The Fool to The World. Give us half an hour and we will help you master meanings of the magician in this world of tarot. Take notes, because after this lesson you will never go back to guessing again.

New Tarot Spread of the Day!

This is a short, powerful tarot spread you can cast as a stand-alone in a five minute reading, but it is so much more. This eviscerates any three card (blob) spreads most people waste their time with these days. It is punchy and direct, but as a fixed-position spread it gives you far more detailed and accurate information.

The layout for this spread is here: along with several other professionally-designed spreads used by tarot experts to help their clients. 100% free (because we love you, and we hate bad tarot readings).

How to use this spread! This is great when you don't have time for a full spread, or as an add-on spread in a larger consultation. How many times ave you given a reading and then your client wants to know how something will turn out, or how they can force things to go their way? This is the right spread for just such an occasion, especially after a larger spread. Give it a try. You will love this spread. I know this.

Okay thanks for being here!

This tarot spread of the day is the "Quickie Problem Solving Spread" and it is AMAZING!

It is a short five cards spread, so it is easy to learn and very fast, but it is not a "blob" spread. Each card position has a specific meaning that works with every other card position, so that the you cast it, you will see patterns and themes in the cards that show up in this spread—and those themes will give you extra-extra layers of information.

USE THIS SPREAD when you have a problem you need immediate answers to or when your client needs solid, reliable advice. This is a professional-level speed, designed by world class tarot experts who have read cards for over 50 years!

Note for working professionals: If you are only using this spread in a reading you should be charging around $20 for this, as it will take you anywhere from 15-20 minutes to really extract all of the value from this spread; this includes any add-on (expansion) cards you choose as follow-ups. But we *strongly recommend* that you use this as a pre-Celtic Cross or post-Celtic Cross spread (so, more like a 30-40 minute consultation) or use this in conjunction with one of the other professionally designed spreads of the day. But it's not about how much money you can (or should) charge. It is about how much real world value you can give to your clients. This spread works. We know you will fall in love with it.

We are doing a new series called "Tarot Spread of the Day."

Every week we will bring you a professionally designed tarot spread curated by Dusty White and tested by real tarot professionals to ensure these spreads really work and are worth your time.

Today's spread is a powerful four-card spread that cuts right through all of the drama and mystery and tells you EXACTLY how someone feels about you (or your client obviously). This is one of the most asked questions pofessional tarot readers get. This spread rocks!

But more than that: This spread can also tell you how to sell anything to anyone, or how to get people to do WHAT YOU WANT. This is the power of professionally designed tarot spreads. It only needs four cards (and a significator you choose), and it hands you the exact information you need to know how someone feels, what they like, what is holding them back, and how to get them to do what you want. Full instructions are included in this podcast in a "follow along and do this as we tell you how—live" format.

Try this spread out. We *know* that after a few uses it will become one of your favorites.

One thing about micro-spreads like this.

These are short spreads. You can do them as quickly as five minutes, or if you really want to help your clients, they can give you up to 15 minutes of information with no fluff! This means that you can cast two or even three spreads in one reading. This enhances your value and thus fattens your paycheck, because you are giving a LOT more high-value information in short sessions.

Let us know if you have ANY questions! (www.easytarotlessons.com)

Toda's session is not about card meanings or how to do spreads. Today I sat down with Nicole, a professional tarot reader in the tri-state area of New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania, and we talked about things YOU should know if you are reading for a living—or if you WANT to get paid to read cards. This is a loose form interview, with some casual humor, and I hope you enjoy this session.

The point of sessions like these is to help yo bring thetarot into your daily life rather than restrict it to some "sacred space" where it gets used as often as yoru massage table or archery set. I want you to get answers from your cards. I want you to help other people with your cards. And if you want to earn a living, we are doing it and we want to meet you! My job is literally to help you succeed.

So please give this a listen, and if you need any help at all, we have a school at easytarotlessons.com where you can learn and also study with other students. We have an extremely friendly tight-knit community, and we would love to welcome you to the family. Also, I have free workshops, but you know where those are.

Questions? Just ask!

Hi again! Micki gave us a list of questions to answer. If YOU have any questions, just send me a note at [email protected] and let me know you want us to answer them on the show.

Today we stepped back to examine what happens during a reading and some of the essential parts of being a *great* tarot reader. There is far more to this than memorizing card meanings or  formulas (like the Christianized Kabbalah or forcing numerology into the tarot). Some things work better than others, and some things just don't work.

This is why we do this series. This is why we give these lessons away for free. If the world is going to have better tarot readers, we need to train people the fine art of divination. It is work. It takes practice, and a skilled tarot reader is worth the $60 to $150 an hour that the "average professional" charges. The best readers in the world charge more than that—and are worth it—but they are hard to find as they already have exclusive clienteles and don't need to prove themselves to the rest of us.

In any case, today's session was filled with personal anecdotes on how to avoid many of the problems we see tarot readers committing over and over AND ALSO some things you should be doing that will make your readings better. 

We try to keep these sessions casual and fun, because mastering the tarot is a LOT of work. Lessons can be found at easytarotlessons.com, so we want to be a bit more entertaining here. Thanks for being here!

With computers and AI and soooooo much on TV, why should you bother learning the tarot? 

Isn't that old-fashioned superstition anyway? It sounds hard. Watching TV is easy. Watching TikTok is even easier (and more fun!). What good does it do to spend months (or years) developing your intuition, or learning what she old pictures mean?

Well, today one of my favorite students (Nicole) and I sat down and talked. I did this interview style, where I really grilled her (since she is a wildly successful NY/NJ tarot reader). We consider many of the ways you can use your cards "irl" to help you make LOTS of money (if you are into that sort of thing), help and heal others, and solve any number of problems. This is two successful tarot readers. I hope you enjoy it!

Write me at any time if you have questions, or just post a comment!

Hey! What's it like reading professionally? Do you want to read for the public?

Today, Nicole and I sat down and explained EXACTLY what you should expect when you get a job reading tarot at a shop, or when you work a booth at a faire, or when you are reading cards at a (friend's) party. 

We also covered what to expect when you read at a tarot party. The problem was there was so much to tell you we probably didn't get to all of it. This podcast was only supposed to be 20 minutes, but it went for an hour! There is so much excellent advice from real, working professionals here — and this is FREE!

Of course this is brought to you by The Easiest Way to Learn the Tarot - Ever!! That book is the best textbook for beginners ever written (read the reviews, talk to any of my students—I made this for you to LEARN after all), and by Advanced Tarot Secrets (the tarot bible for professional tarot readers). Seriously, that book has secrets you won't find anywhere. Go ahead and read parts of it for free on Amazon if you think I am lying.

So, in my quest to (die poor and) give you as much free professional tarot education as possible, I am back at work making more free audio lessons. Today's session is all about what you should plan for when dealing with bosses, clients, and other readers. The good the bad, and the ugly. We hide from no witch (or evil boss).

Listen to this lesson along with the one we just did on how to read professionally, and the episode on how to get LOTS of clients — oh, and the one on how to make $20 an hour right now, if you need money right away.

And while you are here, consider helping out! We need just ten bucks a week to keep the lights on. We will get you tarot study buddies, make you a member of our exclusive community, give you FREE ACCESS to live personalized help from me every Saturday, and also give you an entire master course on tarot, from absolute beginner to professional. 

All for just ten bucks a week (+ $4 to PayPal fees - once a month). We are here to help you. If you are at all serious about learning the tarot, and reading like a professional (accurately, helping others, and getting paid), come join us. Head over to easytarotlessons.com and help us help you. In fact, you can even start for a dollar. Your first month is on us. Just one dollar gets you in.

Thanks for being here! (really)

Here's how to do it

Today I pestered two of my favorite students who are reading in shops, galleries, at parties, and doing LIVE  events every week! This is no joke, and there is no fluff! (We don't waste your time with fluff or thin content around here).

So annnnyway, I like asking my students and other professionals HOW THEY DO IT and what it's like, so that you get someone else's real-life experience other than mine sometimes. After all, this is just social proof that this works, and why you NEED an (affordable) education.

Simply put, if you want to read cards at a shop or read tarot at parties, or read at/host tarot parties, you need to hear these lessons. ALWAYS FREE because we are that f---ing good. Also, we do have an academy if you want a thorough education, and don't forget, you can study tarot with friends. We have tarot friends for you, but you have to make it to the study groups.

Join us! We love new family members. Stay with us a while and be a member of our community. Start learning here for ONE DOLLAR (for the first month -- and then if you stay it's only ten bucks a week to learn everything, and with friends!). Not a bad way to make $60-$150 an hour! Come find out!

We make this tuff fun!
