Foot Note - The court cards are what most people find quite difficult, first learn the basic building blocks, understand the elements and the energies, do your daily practice and in no time you will be a competent tarot cards reader, but remember always to be a good tarot card reader you must trust in your own intuition at all times –Good Luck: Two Simple Daily 'Court Card' Exercises
A simple exercise to start with to learn to read the tarots court cards would be at the end of each to day go through the days events in your mind and note one or two significant people through out the day and then try to tie their personality type into one of the fore elements/tarot families either Wands, Coins, Swards or Earth, then look at the 'positions' they occupy in life or where they are 'coming from', are they a King Queen Knight or a Page? This is a great way to learn the court cards, you can even do it on the way to work with people around you doing their every day jobs.
Another good way to learn and to read the court cards is to separate the court cards out from the rest of the tarot pack then shuffle the two packs as we learned before and pull just one card from the court card pack out every day as person of significance with in your day, then pull another card from the rest of the pack and 'marry' the two cards together (as before). I believe a lot in 'marring' two cards as it gives a much deeper insight into a reading and it is great way to train the mind as it can really make you thinking some times too. Keep up these exercises for a week or two and you will soon find your self become very familiar with these most interesting court cards.
Your First Full Tarot Reading Tarot Exercise from Lesson No1 Expanded - Your first tarot reading - Once mastered upon shuffling the cards lay face down cut into three and 'instinctively place together again. From the top of the pack take three cards in order and lay face down in a row on the table. Turn over all three cards and from the right start to read - Card 1 = the situation. Card 2 = your best action Card 3 = the probable outcome should you take the action in card 2 and there you have it your first tarot reading, use it for questions and 'situations' it is probably the classic tarot reading and will serve you well when time is short or you wish simply to get straight to heart of things.
