Lately, I was into tarot reading. When my family visited me here in Manila, we went to Powerbooks, Greenbelt. My brother, being interested as well, helped me sneak in 1 colorful Tarot of Marseilles box with the other books that my mom bought. We got the tarot for P1495.00. Immediately after arriving at my place, I opened the box and examined the Tarot cards. I browsed through the quick guide on how to interpret the cards.

My brother was excited too so he volunteered to be my first client. I asked him to pick 3 cards that would represent past, present and future then I read the cards one by one (of course still with the help of the book that is included in the box). He was thrilled to hear that all I said was actually true. I mentioned about his ex-girlfriend and how he feels about her and his present love interest. He was more amazed because he did not share these stories to me. Next, I begged my mom and my dad to be my next practice mates.

I learnt that my officemate and good friend Merryll was also obsessed in this Tarot reading. She even bought an expensive and very comprehensive book in reading the tarot cards. Everyday, we also practice reading with each other. I ask her to pick 3 cards and I interpret these for her, then she will also read for me. At first, we really had a difficult time interpreting the cards but we never get bored.

Then one day, I realized I wanted another version of Tarot cards – those with pictures so I can easily interpret the cards. I liked Merryll’s because her deck was smaller and it contained pictures while mine is just colorful but if it says Nine of Swords, you will just literally see 9 swords on the card, if it says Two of Coins, you’ll just see 2 circles. I need the pictures because every little detail will count in helping you interpret the card.

I ended up selling my Tarot for P999 (free shipping). I posted it in Sulit.com. The pictures you can see above show a comparison of my tarot of Marseilles (literally a picture of two cups) and another version which contains a more interpretative picture (two men, each holding a cup).
