Then, take the three top cards of the Minor Arcana deck and lay them horizontally, left to right, underneath the Major Arcana card just placed.If you are including a Major Arcana card, take the top card from the now-shuffled Major Arcana deck and place it face-up in front you.Not including the Major Arcana deck will make for a more stripped-down reading with a more narrow range of possible interpretation.Some guides including the three card spread choose to see the Major Arcana card included as representation of the person being read, others have it as a representation of the situation or question at hand.For some foresight into reading, the single Major Arcana card which is included in the three card spread is a means of interpretation.The included Major Arcana card is meant to aid interpretation, so consider including it for your first tries. There are two variants to the three card spread, one including a Major Arcana card, and one which doesn’t.Shuffle both decks before beginning (again, there’s no particular amount of shuffling you need to do).

If you’d like to have your readings associated with a particular religion or brand of spirituality, there’s most likely a tarot deck with images and names to match that association. Again, the differences you’ll find between tarot decks will almost always be cosmetic ones.If you’re just starting out, consider choosing the Rider-Waite many guides and books on tarot reading will involve the Rider-Waite almost exclusively.
