What is a good site to buy tarot cards and tarot books on how to use them?
I second this answer for decks and books


www.llewellyn.com





then there is also


www.tarotgarden.com





as far as doing something before you use them?


There is nothing special you need to do unless you want to give your reading experience some sort of opening ritual. Some people like to burn incense, others spread thier cards out on a silk cloth.





want to know everything about tarot?


and talk with others who read?

Reply:hi. let me tell you of my experience of buying tarot cards- condensed version-Dream the night I bought them- I was literally giving birth to a monster child in a fiery (fire-ry) stream.


Ignored that-for a while. Dream the night that I threw them away-after a great and involved spiritual discussion-I was down in a dark basement, looking for something. the creaky door at the top of the rickety stairs, slowly opened, and as the bright light shown down from the room above. I saw a hand reach in, holding something. tossing it to me, I picked it up, and it was a bible...hmmm, suppose I made a connection then? Trust me. there is a reason we don't want our life's road broadcast for all and any to know. Think of the implications. Use your own intuition, or best yet, ASK and Ye Shall RECIEVE - Not a question asked goes unanswered, we just have to pay attention and also remember that we have asked a question!

Reply:I don't know if I'm repeating someone else's answers because I can't see them until I attach my message - but - two good sources are:





1. http://www.tarotforum.net/ the home of aeclectic tarot





2. don't have the link - but google Llewellyn's and access their site
