Making your own guide book is such a good idea! I want to do that ❤️✨ thank you 😊🙏
My wife does that
First off...I NEVER comment on YT. But...
You're guide book impressed the hell out of me! I love the calligraphy and how you made your own eclectic and personal reference. That's dope. I've been wanting to do the same but I only envisioned gathering my notes on flash cards or some schlubby notebook. You inspired me to put more effort into the end product though. I dig your creativity mucho! Ok... back to watching your video now. 😊 peace!
Your guidebook is beautiful! I know everyone has said this but there's something that feels so much more appropriate to have actual penmanship, human embellishment, rather than commercially printed for this sort of thing.
Your guide book is so beautiful and authentic. I love that idea. I'm a "read it, write it, do it" myself kind of learner, so seeing the guide book you made, makes me want to do something similar as that's how I obtain information the best. Plus I love the witchy vibes the cover and handwritten pages give off. Kudos to you babe! Great video!!!
Back in the day there were no esoteric shops near me. I had to travel over an hour across town to a lady who sold crystals etc out of her home. She only had the rider Waite deck and the iconic eden grays the tarot revealed book🤣🥰 so much easier these days with internet and online shopping.
Thank you for sharing this - great insight as always ♥️
This is so freaking helpful! You gave some really good advice. I'm new to tarot (about a month in, but I'm also learning multiple systems right now, not just rws). I 500% agree with you on when you write it down you're already memorizing it. That is how I learn. People have looked at me like I'm crazy, but for the short while I was in college, I held my 4.0 like that. I would write things over and over, summarizing them a bit more each time and condensing them. What also helps is drawing little doodles, if you're stuck your mind may go to that little doodle and find it's way to the information you are seeking. It helps visually memorize information. I immediately knew that with this, trying to learn all the meanings and get the correspondences, history, other things I want to know and find useful, into a format I like and can easily navigate, I would be writing my own guidebook in a sense. I already got myself a 2" binder set up so I can easily move things around and revise as needed.
For starters I went and scanned my centennial pocket cards and printed them out black and white, saturation reduced so it would pretty much only print the line work.
I then started (haven't finished) coloring all the cards myself with my color pencils. This gives me some time with all of the images and I actually saw a bunch of things already that I have questions about and want to look into further (I should have made notes though, because I've already forgotten some of the things I wanted to look at 🤣).
I then plan to really look at and work with a single card for maybe a day or two each and write down what I can find on it, but also how I feel about it etc.
For now I'm starting this with the rws system, but my favorite deck so far is the wildwood which will be a whole other workload.
I also just had to get yggdrasil norse divination cards because I'm also german (and I identify with that much more than being american) and I miss home a lot so anything norse is fair game and I sometimes buy when I should really be holding back. Anyway. This deck... it's gonna want you to spend some time with it. You can't force it into working for a specific system, it's it's own system and I love it.
I think this one I will try to read in a world tree spread, pulling 9 cards and seeing how they relate to the placements they land on (the creators have designated placements for each of the 9 worlds on the tree and in relation to each other, each world then has 9 cards which are mostly deities but sometimes items like a ship, or creatures, or places). So for instance say you pull thor (whom they placed in jötunheimur/jotunheim) and he lands on miđgarđur/midgard in your spread. Miđgardur stands for the ego, the current position as well as of course the world of humans, so you would have to take all of that into consideration, as well as of course the querent, if not yourself, and the question.
This went off on a tangent, but yeah, I love learning. And spirit/deity/whatever you believe in knows there is a shitload to learn with tarot/oracle.
This is probably the most helpful video I've stumbled across when looking at which books to buy and the best advice wasn't even about which book to get 😆
Thanks for this 💜
Love your journal! It's similar to the deep deck dive that I started doing from Boho Tarot! Most useful study practice to take what I've read, digest it, and see what resonated and "stuck out" as well as noting the more subliminal details! Love your videos!
Thank you so much for this! I appreciate the level of detail you put into describing each book, it’s very helpful 💕🙏
I loved this video. I found that writing down a bunch of different meanings for the cards in a little book has helped me to remember them as well. I have read 78 Degrees of Wisdom and Holistic Tarot and I love them both as well.
So glad I found this video. Btw you’re hair is beautiful 😍
Great overviews and descriptions of the books! I like the books with the astrology, Kabbalah, and symbolism information. Thank you!
Great video!! Some of the more advanced books have been added to my wish list for future purchases, but I’m ordering the Ultimate Guide to the RW Tarot RIGHT NOW!! 🖤🖤
Great suggestions. Love how you break down each book. And adore your witchy crystal decor. Beautiful.
Thanks for sharing. I have a few of the books that you mentioned, and I am interested in several of the others. You have very beautiful hair, and I love your Crystals in the background. Thanks again for sharing.
My wife does her own guide book with every single deck she owns plus others she doesn't but will get in the future she is obsessed with it all bit in a good way hers is in a 2 ring binder folder even has a way decent tarot journal which she has put heart and soul into it
Your guide book is gorgeous and thank you for this video.
I love your energy!!! can't wait for more videos!
Thank you for all of this guidance! Have a beautiful day!
You are terrific. Thank you so much for your guidance. ❤
I have just started my tarot journey and have binged your videos, you make it so understandable and you're so helpful :) thank you love!! x
Southern Magicks videos are so good!!!!
One tip when it comes to books to save them and give them longer life is to clear contact them the wife does that and she would not do anything else
Wow. Your handmade guidebook is beautiful!
Thank you SO MUCH for the recommendations this is definitely going to be a major help!! You’ve gained a new subscriber. ❤️🙏🏽
this was so helpful thank you!!!
I love your energy
I just started making my own book too! I've been reading the cards for like 15 years but only used one book that really held my hand through the process so I didn't have to learn the meanings of the cards. I'm ready to move on from that system and looking forward to creating my own study of the cards.
Thank you for sharing!
Thanks so much for this information! I did what you did and made my own guide. By writing it down, you learn it old school. And my first book was the Tarot Plain and Simple too :-) Works fine with the Rider-Waite.
....makes me want that book now...
OMG creating your own “little white book” is so clever. Definitely borrowing that idea.
Very nice handwrite guide book. And I like the book became old from new, like the rings too
A great video, thank you 🙏
I love the fact for the first guide the authors name was right on the front and completely missed it, I love it 🖤🖤 so helpful!
This is a very helpful video.
Excellent video! Rachel is the besssstttt... Subbed to your channel 🙏🏻😇
Fabulous video, thank you 👍💯
You called your hand written book a "little project "......that would take me an eternity to do!! Lol. Look so good! Love it!! 💘
My library only has one of these so I requested a few others that they do have. I'll make it to Barnes and Noble or a metaphysical store soon to buy one or two. Thanks!
I'm making my own tarot journal but I must say yours is beautiful 👌
Thank you, again, the book that I bought was The Ultimate Guide to the Rider Smith Tarot. you have no idea how many books I had bought and there are not worthy at all, I guess I didn't type the right information to find it., I live in a small town and there are no stores, besides the stores that were here, the big stores like Sears, and another hardware store have close down. and I guess the majority of people now do their shopping online.
You're fantastic 🙏
Thank you for your advice, I' trying to learn the tarot, but I think It wil be very difficut
Thank you! 👏🏻
I love Benebell Wen, She does have a course on youtube for Holistic Tarot I believe.
You should seriously publish that or something that’s so impressive
❤THANKS ❤
Could we get a walkthrough of your personal guidebook? I’d be curious to get a closer look at it. I’m also jealous of your handwriting !
That holistic tarot book would take the wife 1 hour to read but she doesn't get overwhelmed one little bit with anything
Ooh my first book is holistic tarot. I got it today from amazon and I started reading it. It’s HUGE, but it’s interesting. I have the rider Waite tarot and I like how all the meanings of every card is in it as well as all the reversals. I was referred to this book as being a good beginner book, but now that you’re saying it’s not, I’m now regretting getting it.
What will be a good book to start with often depends on your learning style. For some a simpler book is a good way to start and for others who love diving into something really in depth the Hollistic Tarot is perfect. So give it a go. If you find it intimidating you can always find something simpler to ease into and refer back to it later.
It's perfectly fine for beginners!! Anyone can benefit from this book. If it seems too daunting, keep the card meanings and when you feel confident you can read the rest and apply all the correspondences. Both beginner and advanced practitioners can get a lot from this book. It has it all. How has your experience been with it? Just saw this comment is a year old xD
Don't regret it.I got it myself like you.I happen to Love it use it as much as I can.
Helping me .Along with some of the other books .I just got a great idea watching this video I need guidebooks. I Go to the library often also.Everyone learns diffrent ways...No Rush and no need to put that book away.Its a good one rotate it refer back to it often.Use it.
Worksheets etc stuff like that she would be put into her tarot journal
I have a few books. One for Thoth as well as Alister Crowley's Book of Thoth. I also have Llywellyn's Complete Guide which is not a beginner book at all, but awesome. I have the companion for Lo Scarabeo's Marsielle Tarot deck. Simplictic but very helpful. My newest is called Guided Tarot for Seamless Readings by Stefanie Caponi. First edition on Amazon. Check it out. Love and Light
I agree with all of your picks. All great books indeed. Sidenote to the "A New Handbook for the Apprentice" by Eileen Connolly, the astrological associations are Hermetic and won't match more popular systems. Example, the Devil is Saturn not Capricorn and Capricorn is the Justice card not Libra just to name a few. I am studying The Sacred Path Tarot by Brotherhood of the Light and these match up with that system which is nice for me but, I wouldn't recommend if you're studying that as it can be confusing.
I want all these books lol
The wife says can you do a tarot journal go through and card deck collection video as well
Have you made use of the 'Easiest way to learn the tarot ever'? It's from Dusty White, mine was ordered a few days ago and I'm so looking forward to start studying with it! Just wanted your opinion and recommend it to you anyways😂 I've read that tarot readers who've been reading the cards for more than 20 years, have found a huge difference by working through the book (as it is a workbook mainly) let me know if you order it and work with it. P. S I'm new to your channel ☺️ I'm a beginner but I'm not a fan of learning meanings nor symbols as with just the 4-5 sources I have for the meanings I've seen how they disagree 🤦🏻🤷🏻😂(or having lots of tarot books, it's just not my thing) I first use my intuition with each card and then read various interpretations of said card, and when I see it is the same train of thought, I consider I know the meaning. And then I see new meanings come up in readings, that's how I learn. That's just me, obviously 😂
Best Wishes, hope you are well x x
Nice book... will you publish your book?
And if your in Australia check booktopia
Yes my wife agrees that one book won't do it all
You should try to get affiliate links for the books you should be paid for this great review
Thanks so much for this! 🙂 You have a lovely vibe! Greetings from India 😁
Any occult books are good for my wife
Hi. I hope uour doing good in health.. might you have any books 📚 🤔 that you might not want anymore. If posible might you pass them over. I am so confused about the books 📚 please.
Thank you
Be safe..
Or does anyone that's reading this coment have any?? That you can provide for me?
Thank you
The only way the wife can function is by deep diving into advanced books she can't do beginners books there not for her it's with any areas of her life she does deep dives into advanced stuff first it's how she learns and learns a quick pace it was like she was telling me when she was in school she could not do year 3 book she had to have year 6 books and finished them within a couple.of days if not on the same day 😲😳 she also does that with her baby witches she has under her they have learnt very quickly with that method and yes alot of questions were asked but she handles it very well here motto is you have intelligence you don't need beginners books if you have intelligence
You were so thorough and categorized. You must be a Virgo or Pisces lol
I love your hair! Are you Native American?
Just came back to this video again because I wasn't able to watch all of it last time, and again, I just can't stop looking at your teeth. What is wrong with me? 😂😂 you have beautiful teeth though, seriously. Alright. Back to tarot now...
