A guide to using the clow cards to do tarot readings.* All techniques of how to set out the cards and what each position represents it taken straight from the show! However, the meanings of each card is something I created. I myself am a vetern Tarot reader. I've casually been reading tarot since I was 13 (I am now almost 22...still young but a little wiser ^_^ ) ; I am very accustomed to the Waite Tarot layout (10 fold spread) and used my knowledge of that for this deck's position meanings. Feel confident, I have tested the menaings for accuracy on myself, family, amd school mates. They are EERILY accurate for most people! Please try them yourself, and remember to have fun. ^_^ 1.) How to set out the cards: (Questioner does all this, with left hand if possible) -> Shuffle cards by mixing or cutting deck (No riffling, it�s kinda impossible to do with Clow Cards anyway, :P ) -> Put back into a pile. -> Randomly pulling cards from the deck one by one, arrange like this (if you are doing a reading for another as the Diviner, you do this.)
2.) How to use the cards: If you are feeling flowery, :D use the incantation! Say: �Ancient cards of Clow, show me vision now�� �Show me if you may�where leads my winding way�
(if not just ask the questioner to infuse the cards with their energy, or �chakra�, their feelings, hopes, dreams, fears, etc�.the stuff of them. :) Like in Tarot cards, the Clow Cards have a �major arcana� set, which are represented by the most powerful/oldest cards, aka the cards from the manga; Clow�s original nineteen. The top of that list being the Light and Dark cards, and the four element cards (Windy, Watery, Firey, and Earthy). Thirty-three were added to flesh out the anime series and to complete a 52-card deck. These cards are just as important, and all have unique personalities too, but are considered �lesser� (like the suits of Tarot cards, the cups, swords, coins, and wands.) They are arranged in alphabetical order otherwise in their separate groups. :) If you as the diviner feel any other things that need to be said other than what I have written, say them because that is the cards speaking to you, and extras I have not put must be said to help the questioner. Last but not least � The unique personality/ability of each card has meaning besides what is written, so, for example, the Thunder card�.is an impulsive, testy, slightly violent, and feisty card, that doesn�t always get along with to hers or do as it is told. Whatever is their personality, that is said to have strong influence if the card is upright (facing the diviner) or weak influence if the card is revered (upside down from the diviners position). UPDATED!! October 22, 2007: I organized the cards alphabetically and streamlined everything. I temporarily have taken down the meanings for the past and present specific questions�please enjoy the main Tarot Reading for now. Thank you! And enjoy. ^--- For a printable version (Word Document - 139 Kb), click Kero-chan to download it! ^_^ 3.) Card Meanings: Major Arcana:
