More and more people are already buying their own tarot card deck even if it's for the first time, swaying away from some mythology. While it is already a common practice to buy your own decks, there are a few things you need to know before making a purchase. These reminders will ensure that you get only what's right and the best for you.

Connection

One of the strongest determinants of knowing which tarot card deck to buy is by feeling a strong connection with the cards. You have to get in touch with your inner self and intuitively search for the right one for you. No matter how many recommendations you get for a particular set if it doesn't give you that connection and would make it difficult for you to do reading then it is not the right one for you. You are more likely to be more successful and accurate in receiving messages from the cards if you choose this way. Explore options by reading about them in reviews, getting previews from apps, and other resources.

Imagery

The particular art used in the cards has particular messages in them and if you feel that the images are more in line with your own artistic inclination, then you have to choose this particular deck. There are various styles available in the market and each holds no superiority over the other. It all depends on the impact it has on the user so make this a personal preference, following greatly what your gut is telling you. It is also important to do your research and find as many imagery samples from each kind of deck to get to know more about them.

Experience

Your experience level can have a big impact on how well you handle a deck. Beginners can start with deck cards that are more straightforward in terms of imagery and story portrayed in the art. Some cards are more abstract and mythical for experienced ones so they can achieve more depth and complexity.

Quality of Tarot Decks

Even the quality of the different tarot decks is different from each other in terms of the durability and thickness of the material used. If you are going to use the cards more often, consider investing in high-quality ones that do not easily tear or get damaged easily. Using worn-out cards could affect your reading and low-quality ones may not last you long. Remember that choosing the right tarot cards is not just for your use, but also for the use of your clients in the future. It would help greatly if they get the best experience by choosing over good quality decks.

Type of Card

The different types of tarot cards are anchored in different traditions too, and you should make a choice depending on your experience level. The more traditional card decks are perfect for people who like to maintain the old style of tarot reading while modern cards have more modern imagery that is more relevant to modern times. You can move up from the different types as you go from beginner to a seasoned one who is looking to broadening your skills in tarot reading.

Size of Deck

The size you need for your tarot card deck would depend on the purpose. The smaller ones are best used for intimate sessions where you do the reading one on one with a client. This is also for convenience when they are going to pick their deck of cards because it is easier to grasp with one hand. Bigger ones are great for use in groups and parties. You could also depend on how it feels in your hand.

Guidebook

The guidebook is like the manual of the tarot cards that will explain the imagery and artwork behind each card. If you need more information to help you as you begin tarot card reading, choose a deck of cards that will provide a lot of it. This is so much easier and more practical than doing your research on the internet every time you need to know about particular info. It will also help you with the interpretation and reading of the messages.

Buying your tarot card deck can be intimidating, especially when you just want to have the best one. Remember that the best set of cards will heavily depend on what feels right for you. Do not attempt to contradict what you feel and always use your intuition as a guide to help you make the right choice.
