Using Tarot- Positive Thought Reinforcement by Lisa Ballico

POSITIVE THOUGHT REINFORCEMENT


You will discover, as you journey with the tarot, that at times, you will feel more like a counsellor than a tarot reader. The very nature of a tarot reading is a emotional & moving experience, for both you & your Querent and there will be times when the information supplied to you by the Universe, is information that, if handled incorrectly, could be hurtful, even devastating to the querent.

To this end, I have always looked at my tarot deck as a ‘tool’ of empowerment rather than a ‘weapon’ of doom ; and this I believe, makes reading the difficult spreads a little easier.

As we know, every card in the deck has a negative & positive aspect, every card has an element of dark & light within its message.

To use the method that I call ‘positive thought reinforcement’ (PTR), is to read the cards acknowledging the negative/dark message they contain while at the same time, using the cards as a means of placing the power back into the querent own hands, empowering them to move forward in the situation.

Not always easy, I admit, but definitely worth a try.

People will come to you for guidance & support at major points in their lives…many times, these people have a desperate need to talk & share the burdens they carry, many times they need advice and/or approval, and many times they need strength to face their fears.
The possibilities are endless & at times can be overwhelming & daunting for you both.

This is where PTR comes in, by showing people that what ever is happening in their current situations, there is always light at the end of the tunnel, that life is an ongoing circle, that there is always movement & progression, no matter how slow or heavy the burden.

The way you chose to use PTR will be as individual as the way you interpret the cards, or your spiritual beliefs or the way you clean your teeth………..with time, practice & by nurturing a relationship with your cards, you will find your own way of making your readings empowering, while still being able to support someone through a difficult time.


Some Points:

Always acknowledge & respect the problem that the querent has confided in you.

Always acknowledge & respect the querent & their feelings.

Always acknowledge & respect that the querent may not have the same spiritual beliefs & ideas concerning life/ death/ reincarnation etc as you. (This can make a difficult reading even more challenging)

Always acknowledge & respect that the only person who can alter the querent’s life path is the querent. By empowering them, you are placing the power back into their hands……..what they do with that power, must be their choice.

Always acknowledge & respect that nothing happens without a reason. There is a reason this person has come to see you for a reading today, there is a reason he/she has chosen you, there is something you will say or do during the course of this reading that this person needs to hear, see or feel.
Trust this & know that it is true.
The universe has placed this person with you today for a reason; it may be only one word or one sentence, it could be a feeling or an eye movement, that stays with this person when they leave you today; you will probably never know what it is, but something you said or did during your time with this person made a difference in his/her life. You have become part of his/her journey today & neither of you will leave the reading the same as you were before it.
Know that this is true.
Trust it.
You have done your part.
