When we start to learn to read Tarot, we often fall into the trap of thinking we need to memorise and rote learn the meanings. But, what happens is that our readings end up becoming generic, robotic, and plain boring. 

Instead, it’s essential that you learn how to personalise the Tarot card meanings to truly make your Tarot readings pop. When you learn how to intuitively connect with the Tarot, you'll uncover deeply insightful and accurate messages in your readings. 

For today’s podcast, we went into the archives to pull out an audience favourite. In episode 124, I’m going to show you 4 ways to personalise the Tarot card meanings. We’re going to get creative and have a little fun along the way!

When I first started reading Tarot, I thought that being "authentic" meant that my readings had to be 100% accurate, I was widely recognized as a professional, and I belonged to an accredited association. 

Boy, has my perspective changed! Now, I've come to see that for me, authenticity is more about connecting to my intuition and my true self.  

In this episode of the Biddy Tarot Podcast, I'll discuss my personal journey to becoming what I consider to be an authentic Tarot reader.  I'll also touch on how to share your authenticity with clients and how we as Tarot readers can shift society's perception of Tarot.
