The basic
tools and exercises of this study involve journalling and mediation.
As you will
be studying your own relationships with the cards, you do not
need any special books.
You may use
any deck you feel comfortable with and you may change decks as
you feel like it. You may even use different decks for
the same card, comparing your experiences with the different
images.
You will
need a journal of some kind in which to write. I recommend
that you write at the top of each page, the name card, or cards,
you are working with including the decks' names. That way
you will have a handy reference tool when you are done.
These are
the basic exercises that will be done with each card.
Entering
The Card
Recall
An Experience
Keywords
And Affirmations
These three
exercises form the core of this study. Do them with every
card.
By doing
these exercises you will develop your own personal vocabulary
for each card. You will learn to recognize the energies
represented by the cards as they play out in your own life.
As you learn
how you relate to these energies now, you will gain the ability
to change how you use these energies.
