I did tarot and the crystals in that shop i worked in. Still do them for friends and family. It's intuition based, since you only get the card's name and you work from the picture. You'll start off with a basic set of interpretations and then, as you gain more confidence, you'll get more accurate and start hitting on things. Don't worry if you blurt out something to somebody that has nothing to do with the meaning given to you by the book(let); that's when your intuition comes into play and the cards come alive ;)

You'll find different decks have different structures and meanings. I own two full decks of the original Mythic Tarot deck; the second came to me via a friend, they hadn't been well looked after and needed more than a little TLC. Right as rain now though and they work just as well as the deck i bought :D

I'll pass the second deck on when i find someone who needs them. It'll probably be family or a close friend though.
