Although my first two decks of tarot cards (Angel Tarot Cards and Archan- gel Power Tarot Cards) use positive words and images, I knew that there were still people who were intimidated by tarot. This is because traditional tarot was shrouded in secrecy to avoid the persecu- tion of those with spiritual gifts, such as what happened in the Inquisition. False rumors were spread about tarot by religious and political leaders who were threatened by practitioners’ spiritual powers. So this an- cient art has remained mysterious and a bit frightening to those who didn’t understand it. This fear was compounded by cards that contained troubling images and words.Yet, tarot is still the most accurate tool with which to receive detailed information and answers. Of course, you can get guid ance by going directly to God, Jesus, and the angels. However, when you're stressed, it’s difficult to feel or hear their presence or messages. That's when tarot cards can create a pipeline to Heavenly guidance for you. Whether you're getting guidance for yourself, a loved one, or a client, you'll find that the Guardian Angel ‘Tarot’ Cards. will speak clearly to you. About Your Guardian Angel Tarot Cards Ifyou've ever used a deck of angel oracle cards, then the Guardian Angel Tarot Cards will seem very comfortable to you! The only real difference between angel oracle cards and tarot is that the latter follows a struc- tured story line of what life is like on Earth. We are born, go to school, meet frlends, fall in love, and choose careers. All these aspects of life (and many more) are found in tarot. Because millions of people have lovingly come to tarot for guidance, it has become a 2language of the Divine. And it is extremely reliable and accurate. It may surprise you to know that tar- ot was originally a parlor game, similar to bridge! As time went by, intuitive people re- alized that there was more to it. There have been many times in human history when it wasn’t always safe to fully display one’s intuition for fear of reprisal. This is one of the reasons why tarot had such a secretive nature in the ancient past. But we're very blessed that in today's world, most of us are now free to embrace our spiritual gifts to help those in need. ee ‘The classic structure of tarot has been retained in this deck, with changes that ex- press its loving and supportive nature. Every card is safe for highly sensitive people. Tarot originally consisted of two sets of cards called Arcana. These two Arcana were later combined into the now-traditional 78 cards. The first set is today called the Major Arcana, comprising 22 cards that describe‘major events and turning points in our lives (like marriage, pregnancy, relationship and career changes, and overcoming personal challenges). The Major Arcana cards can also represent the different phases from child- hood to old age. The second set of cards is called the Minor Arcana, which consists of four suits representing different aspects of human life. The Minor Arcana cards are numbered 1 (Ace) through 10, plus an additional four cards that are traditionally referred to as ‘court cards (page, knight, queen, and king). However, since the Guardian Angel Tarot Cards are designed to help you with our current time in human history, the court cards have been renamed Friend Cards. They include a Messenger (card 11), a Helper (card 12), a Healer (card 13), and @ Guardian (card 14) for each suit. While the Major Arcana Tepresents major life transitions, the Minor Arcana reflects the day-to-day aspects of— and people in—our lives. As you work with the cards, you'll notice that many of the images feature guardian angels. These images will open your heartto their guidance when you use the deck. Your guardian angels are always with you, and their entire purpose is to support you in becoming mote peaceful and fulfilling your Divine life mission. They help you feel safe and joyful so that you can better hear messages from God, the archangels, and the guardian angels of anyone you're doing a reading for. In traditional tarot, the four suits of the Minor Arcana are usually named wands, cups, swords, and coins. However, these suits have been renamed in this deck in order to make them very easy to interpret and understand. In the Guardian Angel Tarot Cards, they're called Action, Emotion, Thought, and Abundance. You'll read more about these suits later in this guidebook. Friend Cards (the Messenger, Helper, Healer, and Guardian) can represent either a situation or a person during a reading. In order to make it easy for you, each guidebook entry begins with situational descriptions. with personality attributes listed afterward. To know which is relevant in the reading. review the surrounding cards and let yourintuition guide you. It’s also important to note that the genders depicted on the Friend Cards aren't something you need be tied to. On a historical note, the Major Arcana was originally created with Justice as the 8th card and Strength as the 11th card. However, in the early 20th century, Arthur Edward Waite flipped the cards’ positions when he created his famous Rider-Waite deck. His reasons for doing so were obscure, and the results were disruptive to the flow of the Major Arcana’s spiritual-path story. So they have been restored to their original positions in the Guardian Angel Tarot Cards. Since each individual tarot card has multiple possible meanings, I recommend that you read each description in. this guidebook and let your intuition lead you to the appropriate interpretation for the reading. ‘Trust your angels and feelings to guide you. The cards in this deck are rich with symbolism and imagery, and the illustrations also provide answers and messages. Notice which aspects of each card’s painting capture your attention, as that can be part of your answer. Thisguidebook, coupled with your intuition, will help you understand answers to all your questions, How to Use Your Guardian Angel Tarot Cards Step 1: Clear Your Card Deck Your cards are sensitive, and they absorb energy from everyone who touches them. ‘There’s no need to worry about this, as you can easily and thoroughly clear the card energies simply by holding the intention to do so. It’s a good idea to clear the cards before you use them for the first time, and then periodically as you feel guided to do so. Steps 1 and 2 need repeating only after another person touches your cards or if your readings lack clarity because the cards have become clogged with too much energy. The reason is that other people’s energies can influence future readings, even if someone's ‘energy was very pure. It’s best to have onlyyour own energy embedded into the decks you use. ‘To clear your cards, hold the deck in one hand and sweep your other hand over them. Then think the thought that you'd like the cards to be cleared, and say a prayer over the cards, such as: “Dear God, thank You for lift- ing away anything from these cards that is not of Divine love.” This clears out the old energy and makes them ready to receive your spe- cial energy. Step 2: Prepare the Cards Briefly touch all the cards to introduce your own energy to them. You can simply touch one of the corners of each card to do so. Then fan the cards out with the artwork facing you. Hold the fanned cards to your heart and think about any prayers or inten- tions you'd like to bestow upon them. Your cards are sensitive to your desires for them. They now carry your personal vi- bration and wishes.Step 3: Ask a Question Think of a question you'd like to have answered. If you're pulling cards for some- one else, ask him or her to either think of or say a question. Heaven hears your thoughts, so you don’t need to say your question out loud. Step 4: Shuffle the Cards Think of the question as you shuffle the cards, and ask Heaven to help you with answers and guidance. You may find it helpful to say this prayer, which is similar to the one in Step 1, while shuffling cards: “Dear God, | ask that You be sure that only Your pure and trustworthy messages come through these cards. Please protect my oved ones and me. Please help me to see, heat, feel, and know the messages that You have for us. ask that this card reading bring blessings to everyone involved.”If one or more cards “jump” out of the deck while you're shuffling, place them to the side. They'll be part of your reading. As you're shuffling, you'll likely notice feelings, thoughts, words, or visions. These inner messages will help you understand the cards you draw, so pay attention to every- thing that you feel, think, hear, or see. You may also receive a feeling or a knowing to stop shuffling the cards, or you may even hear the words Stop shuffling now. ‘These inner messages are helping you with the reading. You can’t make a mistake and stop shuffling too soon, as the Divine Law of Attraction ensures that you'll always choose the correct cards. So please give any worries about doing things wrong to God and the angels. ‘hoose a Card Step Once you stop shuffling, pull any card from the deck. ‘The card you pull is always the right one. All are positive, so don’t worry about choosing the wrong one. The card you 0pull is the answer to your question. As you read the words on it, notice any thoughts, words, feelings, or visions that come to you, as these are also messages from Heaven. The picture on the card is also important. Notice where your eyes go when you look at it, and pay attention to how you feel. Everything you see and feel is part of the answer to your question. If you set aside a card (or cards) that “jumped” out of the deck while you were shuffling, look at it, too. The jumping card is also giving you a message. ‘ead This Booklet Step Turn to the messages for each card within this booklet. As you read the words, continue to notice any thoughts or feelings that come to you, as they’te also part of the answer. Heaven will give you guidance and assistance with every part of your life. You can give an amazing, wonderful, and help- ful reading—even as a beginner! nThree-Card Messages With the Guardian Angel Tarot Cards, you'll receive most of your answers from simple three-card readings. For example, you can start your day by asking Heaven: “What do I need to know about today?” After completing Steps 3 and 4, pick three cards from the top of the deck. With the pictures and words facing up, lay the first card to your left, the second one in the middle, and the third to your right. 1 2 3 Card 1 is your past, Card 2 is your pres- ent, and Card 3 is your future. You can al- ways change your future by changing what you're doing right now. ‘Take a look at how these three cards relate to the question you asked. Listen to 2your feelings and thoughts as you look at the cards. Your feelings and thoughts are part of the answer to the question Traditional Card Spread This is one of the most popular and be- loved card spreads in tarot. It can be used to answer questions about any topic. This spread of ten cards reveals the basis of your situation, the challenge, the past, the pres- ent, the near future, and the likely outcome. B10After completing Steps 3 and 4, lay out ten cards faceup in the order shown in the diagram. * Card 1 represents the situation. © Card 2 represents the current challenge affecting the situation. * Card 3 represents the basis of the situation. * Card 4 represents the past, relevant to the situation, © Card 5 represents the present. © Card 6 represents the near future, © Card 7 represents your power in the situation. © Card 8 represents the effects of people around you. © Card 9 represents your hopes or fears. * Card 10 represents the outcome. etIn the next section of this guidebook, you'll find meanings for each card. Remem- ber that you have freewill choices about all areas of your life; you can also change the ‘outcome of any situation through prayer, vi- sualization, and positive affirmations. God and your angels can help alter your future for the better if you'll just ask for, and be open to, their assistance, ees 16THE MEANINGS OF THE CARDS This guidebook explains the general meanings for every card in the Guardian Angel Tarot Cards deck.

Peo- ple you can trust. ae 59Review and Contemplation This is a very important moment in your life. Everything that has happened up until now has helped define who you are.

There are 14 cards in each suit, from Ace to Guardian, similar to ordinary playing cards. While the Major Arcana represents ma- jor life transitions, the Minor Arcana reflects the day-to-day aspects of our lives. The Mi- nor Arcana’s Friend Cards (Messenger, Helper, Healer, and Guardian) can represent cither a situation or a person during a reading. The first section describes situations or guidance being provided by your angels. The second section identifies personality traits of people in your life. It may even be describing you!I’s also important to remember that genders of the Friend Cards aren’t meant to be read as a hard-and-fast rule. If you draw a card that happens to have a female on it, but the personality attributes sound to you like a male you know, then you should fol- low your guidance and interpret that card as referring to the male. rd 66THE SUIT OF ACTION ‘The first part of the Minor Arcana is all about creativity, passion, inspiration, and movement.
