This involves deep analysis on your part, whereby you will need to “connect the dots” to find out what exactly the cards are saying.

This technique is effective because it lets the wisdom of your Inner Guide to come forth. You feel as if something within has been set free. Your first attempts will probably be awkward, but your stories will improve with practice. You will develop an ability to guide the flow of words without imposing your will on them.

The message will always come across as meaningful because they are meaningful to you. Remember if the medium is the message, then you are the message. So you should always think of the cards as a guiding light in the fog and you are the person that is escorting your client towards that light. Without the hand of your knowledge they will remain in the dark.
