​Now I know what some of you are saying - that a digital deck is not anywhere near as good as a physical deck. There I am afraid I have to disagree. If you focus on the question at hand, and then draw your cards (which you can shuffle) you interpret them the same as if they are physical cards in your hands. Where I find them the most useful is in being able to fire off a quick pic of a card to a client. For the most part I always have the physical deck and the matching app, and it is really handy if a client asks me after a reading to see the card again. I can pull up the app and send a screenshot. No more having to dig my camera out, set it up, take out the card, transfer the file, crop, email, etc... So much easier! There is also one more benefit that gets overlooked a lot: previewing a deck. Now sure, you can google the deck and see pictures, but the app allows you to also see what the creator wrote about these cards and sometimes that is just as important. I would rather pay $4 for a digital deck and find out that I hate it then to go to the store and spend $25 on the deck.

​For those of you out there who use tarot apps, what are some of your favorites. Share in the comments below.

It helped when you said that Tarot cards can guide us and provide a wise message that can clear our issues. This is helpful because my younger sister loves Tarot cards. I think I should take her to a gift shop on Friday morning that can provide Tarot readings to help her determine what the universe would like her to do.

Gift shops can be great places to find a deck! There have been an increase in counterfeit decks showing up all over, so check to make sure the packaging doesn't have a QR code on it to download the guide - that is a sure sign that the deck is a bootleg...
