Help With Tarot!

So my new rider waite deck came in today and I couldnt be more excited! I noticed when reading the pictorial key to tarot it has a section for each card and information about it. I instantly thought that maybe I should take out my deck and when reading information about that one specific card. I should remove that card from the deck an examine it myself as well as reading what the book has to offer. though I am a beginner, I was wondering what are you thoughts on this?

Whatever helps you learn, I say. Also consider differing sources. Some people may have slightly different versions of the Fool's Journey, for example. Amd some people read completely intuitively, ignoring the intended meanings of the cards.

Some other sources I can recommend:
learntarot dot com
Search YouTube for the channel Tarot Oracle

There's a fairly recent thread here on SoM with recommended books and resources.

Yes,learn the meanings through several books and also and most importantly, learn to use your intuitive senses.Give it about a years of study,learn meanings, reversals, and most importantly connecting the cards and positions.. Don't give up, before you know it,card reading will be second nature..Learn the Trump cards first then the minors, I went by suit, master one suit at a time
The number, picture and color, as well as hidden images all need to be learned and mastered.
