Okay, so I’ve been wanting to dive into the world of tarot cards for a while now, and I finally took the plunge! I decided to start with Ángel tarot cards, specifically, because, well, who wouldn’t want a little angelic guidance, right?
First things first, I needed to get my hands on a deck. I ordered a set online that looked pretty and had good reviews – seemed like a safe bet. While I waited for them to arrive, I did some basic research. Just general stuff, like, “how do you even use these things?” There’s tons of info out there, which was a little overwhelming, to be honest.
Getting Started
The cards arrived! They were even prettier in person. I spent some time just looking at each card, getting a feel for the artwork and the general vibe. Some of them were instantly comforting, others… less so. But hey, that’s life, right? Not everything is sunshine and rainbows.

I found a simple three-card spread online – past, present, future – and decided to give it a shot. I shuffled the deck, trying to focus on a general question about my career. I’m not gonna lie, I felt a little silly at first, but I figured, “what the heck, let’s see what happens.”
- Past: I drew a card that seemed to represent hard work and overcoming challenges. Pretty accurate, considering my last job!
- Present: This one showed a figure reaching for the stars, which I interpreted as pursuing my ambitions. Felt pretty spot-on, given my current job search.
- Future: Ah, this one was a bit more mysterious – a card symbolizing intuition and inner guidance. I guess it means I need to trust my gut?
My First Reading
Honestly, the whole experience was pretty interesting. It wasn’t like some magical revelation, but it did make me think about things from a different perspective. The cards acted more like prompts for self-reflection, helping me dig into my own feelings and thoughts about my career.
I did another reading a few days later, this time focusing on a relationship issue. Again, the cards didn’t give me any concrete answers, but they did help me clarify my own feelings and consider different viewpoints.
I’m still very much a beginner, but I plan to keep practicing. It’s kind of become a fun little ritual, a way to check in with myself and explore my inner world. I’m definitely not claiming to be any kind of expert, but it’s been a surprisingly helpful and enjoyable experience so far!
