It’s a normal tendency to reach out for card readings at difficult times in life. The readings can sometimes turn out to be negative or what you don’t want to hear. And sometimes what you are not ready to face.

You can feel…Shock. Despair. Denial. Anger. Upset. Disappointment. How do you deal with the shocking reading you’ve just got?

Know that Oracle and Tarot Card readings pick up from your current energy. And your energy or vibes or current reality is a combination of your thoughts, feeling, actions, personality, and choices.

Tip: It is important to clear the cards as well as your own energy before doing a card reading. You can always redo a card reading following the right process.

Stay rest assured that Oracle card readings ring true for where you are in your life, at that moment and up to that moment. This brings up the question…

Are you doomed with the prediction by Tarot or Oracle cards? Fortunately not.

The beauty in using Oracle cards is it acts as a mirror to your subconscious showing the good as well as provides warnings. Instead of being afraid, remember that the cards are a wonderful tool to know if you are on the right path or not. We can often not see the bigger picture on our own.

A reading shows that as per current circumstances, this is your past, present and future. But you do have a choice if your reading is not all positive. And Oracle cards can help you with making different choices for a better future.

What to do if you get a bad card reading?

Take 3 deep breaths, grab your deck (lovingly) and do these 2 things:

• Ask intently ‘What else do I need to know?’ and pull out another card (This is my favourite thing to do in any situation where I need further clarity)
• Pull out a second card to ask for solutions and guidance

This should help put your mind at ease in case of a negative or unpleasant Oracle or Tarot reading. And make the most of these wonderful tools.
