Before reading booklet or book about the deck, use your intuition to find meanings and symbolism. Go through the deck card by card and use your intuition to determine possible meanings.

Start With the Major Arcana

Go through the suite card by card and study the images, symbolism, intuitive meanings, and written booklet or book meanings. NEVER dismiss your intuitive meanings. Use your intuition and the written materials to determine all possible meanings for each card of the suite.

Test Your Memory

Remove all literature from your sight and go through the suite card by card and remember your intuitive meanings and the written meanings. If you can't remember a meaning, study the images on the card for a few minutes and move on to the next card.
