tarot deck with keywords – Calming Cosmos

When you are just starting out on your tarot journey, it can be quite a daunting task to learn and memorize the meanings and interpretations of each card. You will probably find yourself keeping your tarot guidebook close to your heart as you go along your tarot reading, as you likely won’t be able to read the cards right on the spot without having to look up their meanings and interpretations each time. This is something that can actually become quite frustrating, especially as a beginner. When I just started out with tarot myself, the difficulty of reading each card without a guidebook almost made me want to throw my deck in to the nearest fire place (this could be just me though, as I am notoriously known to have the attention span of a goldfish). That was the case until I delightedly found out there are tarot decks available that have their meanings and keywords written directly on the cards, which makes your readings flow with that much more ease. In this article I will recommend some of my most favorite tarot decks which have useful meanings and keywords written on them, so you as well can be sure to go through your upcoming readings with a strong sense of confidence and energy!
