About my Tarot readings:

Instead of forcing cards into predetermined categories, like past, present, future,  I use an open reading method.  This means that I let the interactions between cards in the spread determine not only the individual card meaning but the overall meaning of the spread. I find this method dynamic and it produces much more meaningful readings.

 Sometimes the meaning of a reading will be clear to you immediately. Sometimes it may not, but it will rattle around in your mind for a while. Then you’ll either figure it out by thinking it through or your subconscious will do it for you and you'll have a realization. This might take a few hours, days, or even weeks. We all would prefer instant gratification, but in these cases you just have to relax and be patient. For this reason, you shouldn't have readings too frequently. It's usually best to wait a few weeks so that the meaning becomes clear before having another reading, should you desire one. Sometimes, if you have a follow-up question based on a reading, a second reading soon after the initial reading to gain clarification may be appropriate. Frequent readings one after the other are counterproductive, since you don’t have time to think about the information and apply it to your situation and have the results play out.

If you feel you are in a serious life crisis you might be better served talking to a family member or friend, or religious or professional counselor, or even a crisis line if necessary, rather than requesting overly-frequent readings.  Tarot readings are a helpful tool, but shouldn’t be a substitute for getting the help we need when we need it. We all go through rough patches when it is necessary to reach out to other people :-) Please take care of yourself first and foremost.

One last thing- the clarity of a reading is also tied to the clarity of your query. A clear, direct inquiry helps in getting clear guidance. Also, some brief context about why you are asking the question helps me to understand how the message in the cards applies to your query. A vague question and absence of context means that all I can give you is a general idea of what the cards are saying.
