Here’s a problem we all face: What to actually do when you get a new deck. Whether it is a gift or you grabbed it off a shelf because you had to have it, or you ordered it online, all new decks are stiff and slippery, and refuse to cooperate. They have that “new car smell” factory stink on them. You have to get your psychic stank on them to mark them as your own. You have to imbue your cards with your psychic essence by working them in and working YOUR energy into them as a whole. Otherwise you are using a generic deck — and while you CAN do that, you will always get the best information from a deck you have made your own.

We have addressed this before, but too many people missed this, and I wanted to give you a fresh take on this, so in this super-short session you will learn how to physically break in a new deck so it actually shuffles the way you need it to, how to cleanse a used deck you picked up from someone else, and how to build a working relationship with unfamiliar art (a new type of deck or art you have not read with before) so the card images start talking to you instead of just sitting there looking like pretty pictures.

So we have for you a simple but powerful technique for cementing card meanings *without memorizing keywords*, and also how to read the color palette and themes of your new deck so you understand what each image is trying to tell you. Also, a quick storytelling exercise that gets you comfortable with ANY deck fast.

After you listen to this, sit down with your new deck and run through the exercises we give you. Don’t rush any of this. Also, you want to do this several times, and not all in one sitting. Even a little time with these techniques spread out over a few days will do more for your reading than hours of reading some guidebook. Real readers who build real fluency with their cards put in this kind of deliberate practice early on (this means you!).

Okay, thanks for being here. For much deeper tarot training, come visit us at easytarotlessons.com and let us help you become truly great. Also, we can (and do) show you several ways to make a LOT of money as a high paid tarot reader.

Special episode: This was surreptitiously recorded for students ready to do their own events or working with others. This is not a full course on how to get lots of paying clients. This is a primer, but it will reveal what really works and how to avoid losing money when you do (or host your own) events.

Today we are talking about one of the most exciting moves you can make as a working tarot reader: creating and running your own tarot events. We have broken this down into four parts, so grab a pen and get ready to take notes, because there is a lot of ground to cover and every bit of it can save you serious money and headaches.

You will learn the difference between events you participate in and events you organize yourself, and why knowing which one you are actually ready for matters to your career (and your reputation!). We walk through your options as a participant, from private tarot parties and psychic fairs to pop-up vendor events and becoming a house reader at a local business, and then we get into the good stuff: how to build your own event from scratch without blowing your budget before your first client walks through the door.

This means finding the right host business, curating your vendors so that EVERYONE benefits, building a marketing machine that uses the collective reach of every person at your event, and knowing your numbers before you commit to anything.

We also cover how to price your time, how to turn every single attendee into a referral source, and how to debrief after your first event so that your future events are even better.

After you listen to this, start doing your market research before you spend a single dollar. Visit local events as a guest, talk to vendors, and pay attention to what draws a crowd. Find one business in your area that already attracts the kind of people who would love what you do, and start a conversation.

If you want the full course on how to get a LOT of paying clients, come to any of our free Saturday workshops and ask Dusty where to get it — or just sign up at easytarotlessons.com as it is a part of our tarot course. Once you are certified (you won’t embarrass us), you can get our $5,000 course on how to get LOTS of paying clients without having to pay the $5,000.

Okay, thanks for being here! Now go be awesome!

Today we're diving deep into one of the most powerful skills you will ever develop: tapping into your intuition and actually knowing when it's talking to you. We have discussed your intuition before, but these skills are so important I wanted to come at this from a fresh approach and give you steps to take right now, because a year from now time won't forgive you for not improving yourself.

Your intuition is a gateway not a bubble or some ethereal "thing" that some people have and others don't. It is a real, trainable function of your subconscious mind and in today's free lesson I'm handing you one of the step-by-step methods we have spent decades refining.

You're going to relax your awareness into the exact state where your intuition flows freely, how to lock onto a target question so your subconscious has something to work with, and how to shift into what I am calling (just for convenience) your "extended ears" so that you put your brain into a genuinely receptive, searching state. I'll show you a 60-second technique that keeps you on track, how to use The Fool card from your tarot deck as a live training tool right now in real time, and how to capture and follow the breadcrumbs your intuition leaves so you can start seeing real results in your daily life.

You can use any card for this, but after you listen, grab your Fool card, find a quiet few minutes, and run through the process. Then do it again tomorrow. Keep a pen and paper close by and write down everything that surfaces, even the stuff that seems random.

This is a quickie workshop, it's completely free, and it is exactly the kind of lesson that we give you at easytarotlessons.com. Time keeps moving whether you grow or not, so listen to this at least once, take notes, and let's make you more psychic. If you need MORE help, come to our free Saturday workshops — and when you get serious about being psychic, come take our affordable lessons at easytarotlessons.com.
