Seriously guys I wish I never touched tarot readings.It becomes a vice before you notice.When I started it was because I was hopeless and it sorta gave me hope to keep going this is why most people have readings because they want to escape the stress,the agony they want to see if there's is anything positive for them in the future.However there's tons of complications involved cuz of course you see a lot of things you dont want to see and its extremelly easy to become obsessed.I'm not a fervent Christian but now I understood why it's not something well seen in the bible.I used to think that God forbid us from a lot of things just because he wants to but it's because it causes us suffering.

Its like those movies on going back in time you just start a real mess.It can mess with your choices.We dont know how much a reading can change the course of our choices.I know most people will say "Im strong and a reading doesn't influences my decisions" thats fine I hope that is the real deal for you but we know that is not that simple for most people so I leave my experience here.

I quit tarot when I was obsessing, and then when everything about my life was depressing. I didn't know how much my mindset might have been affecting the cards I chose, or if life was just going to continue to suck.

I also had one reading that made no sense to me at the time, a couple of years before I quit, and then at one tower-like moment/situation, I remembered it, and searched my email for the reading.

I wish that we had someone here, teaching the cards again. I can still be anxious, and could start to obsess again, but I'm a lot more clear-headed than I was.
