This shift in how people approach tarot can be seen in the rise of the daily tarot pull. In this practice, people begin each day by pulling a single tarot card for themselves and reflecting on the meaning. “It’s only pretty recently that people have started to be cool with pulling their own cards,” Main explains. Old myths say that pulling your own cards and buying your own tarot deck brings bad luck — but many people now discount these myths, saying that these practices can be beneficial to yourself and to others. If you’re new to tarot, beginning each day with a tarot pull can help you get familiar with the different cards and their meanings; and buying your own deck helps you choose one that resonates with you, not to mention financially supports the deck’s creators.
