I love tarot reading for people, I love feeling that brief connection with someone and seeing what the cards what them to know.
However I still feel heavily connected the person long after (sometimes weeks!) it does fade eventually. I do daily cleansing meditations and will get in extra meditation time a day of a reading.
Does anyone else have any recommendations?
I've also only been doing readings on people I'm super comfortable with so I'm sure that could contribute to why the connection last longer
So I would suggest something, however I'm not entirely sure it would be any sort of recommendation to that extent. So to just keep it simple and to the point, I would suggest you simply try to channel your own energy somewhere into nature or a place you feel comfortable in.
No meditation or cleansing rituals.
Just a peaceful environment/surrounding that you comfortable in. Just sit, stand or relax however way you prefer and just channel your energy back into nature and more importantly the universe. So basically we are cleansing energies more naturally I would think. One on one with nature and the universe.
I live near the beach, so I walk on the beach alone, just letting go of any unwanted energies. I walk barefoot a lot. Barefoot walking also helps naturally to cleanse.
Like mentioned, it's a more of a suggestion, something I do, rather than a branded recommendation. Just as we receive energy from nature and the universe, nature and the universe will be glad to cleanse us also.
It's not unusual for readers to feel an extended connection to the querent after a reading, especially if it was a deep and meaningful one.
You are doing everything right by meditating and cleansing, but I have a few suggestions to break the connection quicker. First, try using a grounding technique like visualizing roots extending from your body into the earth, absorbing excess energy. Second, try engaging in physical activities like exercise to burn off any excess psychic energy. Lastly, try setting clear boundaries during your readings by declaring the connection will end with the reading.
Another tip I have for breaking the psychic connection quicker is to set a clear intention before and after the reading. Before the reading, state your intention that the connection will be temporary. After the reading, thank the client and energetically release them from the connection.
Remember, the strength of the connection varies from person to person and the nature of the reading. Some readings make a more powerful and lasting connection, but you can use grounding, exercise, and clear intentions to speed up the process of disconnecting.
There is one last thing to consider. You mentioned feeling "heavily connected" to the person after a reading. This could be partly due to your own psychic energy. It's possible you're subconsciously absorbing some of the querent's energy during the reading, which would prolong your connection with them.
Try to focus on protecting your own energy during readings by imagining a barrier around yourself or visualizing a shield of light around your body.
Also, you mentioned reading for people you're super comfortable with. While that might make the reading more accurate, it can also make the connection feel stronger. Try doing practice readings on people you're not too close to and don't have any emotional attachment to. Working with strangers can help you detach emotionally and learn to cut the connection quicker.
