It also was creating fear around doing it at all.
A friend of mine had been sporadically teaching me and she emulated the exact way her Grandmother did things. I respect that, but not knowing her Grandmother it all became very abstract. Now I feel like I can be more playful and curious and find my own way with it. My friend gave me a deck that is not a "traditional deck" but I'm really drawn to the artwork and tone of the explanations. So here I begin, card 1 and a fresh new notebook. My heart is grateful!

I'm so glad I could be of help!!
Yes, some people's way of doing tarot is very precise and restrictive. If your friend's grandmother's way of doing things works for them, great. But I believe the best way of reading tarot is the path we discover for ourselves! Definitely feel free to play and experiment. I think you'll find the cards will play back.
Have fun on your new journey!
