Protection and cleansing are important practices when working with tarot cards to maintain a positive and safe energy.
It's essential to follow one's own interests and intuition when exploring spiritual practices and to avoid engaging in practices that feel uncomfortable or go against personal values.

Tarot can be used for various purposes, including self-reflection, creativity, and stimulating ideas for writers.
Echoism is an extreme form of people-pleasing that can be overcome with the help of tarot and self-reflection.
