Preparing the Space:

  • Find a quiet and peaceful place for your reading.
  • Use a green tablecloth or green stones on your table. Green symbolizes harmony and calmness, helping to set a positive mood.
  • Light a candle or an aromatic stick with a soft, soothing fragrance to create the right atmosphere.

Setting Your Intention:

  • Before starting the reading, close your eyes and focus on your question or topic related to relationships.
  • Silently or aloud, state your intention, such as: “I seek clarity and understanding in my relationships.”
  • Choose one of the five suggested spreads.

Clearing the Deck:

  • Before starting the reading, cleanse the deck of previous energy. You can do this by passing the cards through the smoke of an aromatic stick or lightly tapping the deck on the green tablecloth.

Shuffling the Cards:

  • Slowly and thoughtfully shuffle the cards on the table (if they are plastic) or shuffle them (if paper), keeping your question or intention in mind.
  • Feel when you need to stop. This may be an intuitive feeling or when the cards stop sliding easily.

Choosing the Cards:

  • Draw the required number of cards for the chosen spread. Do this intuitively, trusting your feelings.
  • Lay out the cards on the green tablecloth or next to the green stones according to the chosen spread.

Interpretation:

  • Focus on the symbols and images on the Hanafuda cards. Remember that each card carries unique meanings and symbolism.
  • Pay attention to your feelings and intuition when interpreting the cards. What do they tell you in the context of your relationships?

Recording Results:

  • After completing the reading, write down the results and your thoughts in a journal or notebook. This will help you refer back to them later and see how your understanding and relationships have changed.

Finishing:

  • Thank the Hanafuda cards for their guidance and help.
  • Gently gather the cards and clear the space if necessary (leave the candle burning for 10-15 minutes).

Additional Tips:

  • Regular Practice: The more often you do readings, the stronger your connection with the cards and your intuition will be.
  • Openness and Trust: Be open to what the cards show and trust your intuitive feelings.
  • Seeking Help: If you feel you cannot interpret the spread on your own, seek advice from a more experienced reader or Hanafuda specialist.

Following these rules will help you create a harmonious and calm atmosphere for Hanafuda card readings, leading to deeper understanding and clarity in your relationship.
