It does take a lot of practice, especially depending on the size of your deck, the size of your hands, what type of cardstock it is, etc!

The PINK and GOLD deck used in the video is my Modern Love Tarot deck, you can find it here: shop.ethony.com/products/modern-love-tarot-exploring-the-many-facets-of-love The WHITE and PINK deck used in the video is my Bad Bitches Tarot deck, you can find it here: shop.ethony.com/collections/tarot-decks/products/bad-bitches-tarot-deck-guidebook

I'm a riffle/bridger who then overhands and finally cuts the deck. I use the corner riffle for bigger decks and don't bridge, but I still do overhand after I've riffled. Great video Ethony!

For the over and under- you don’t have to use your thumb you could just throw them in the other hand/ catch them without the extra thumb. If you like getting jumpers this helps. Thanks for your video love your decks!

Thank you for this! I'm always so slow to shuffle or just do the little kid "spread it all out and just smoosh it around" so I don't bend the cards!

Thank you for this. I could not figure out that over/ under method I see others use. Now I can shuffle those decks with bigger cards or thicker card stock. 💛

omg thanks so much! i love your energy!

I cut 3 ways, put together. Reverse half, put together. Pull some from the middle and do over under. Some more from the middle and over under. 3 or 4 times. Go back to beginning, start over. Until I feel like they're shuffled enough.

Hi i just found your channel omg thank you ever so much im sitting down practising with a great big long smile.I finally learnt the common shuffle, and i realise now that i was holding the deck wrong.Sending you a hug xx

Thanks a lot ..So nicely you showed the ways ti shuffle the cards.

Thank you so much Ethony!! I love your riffle shuffles.. that's me too.. my fave.. and I find that like you, I love to just sit there and shuffle. It gives me a satisfaction that I have never known.. besides say.. popping bubble wrap! thank you and be blessed!!!

*Most excellent video!!!* Gave me a new way of shuffling (The over and under portrait and landscape shuffle)!!! I've always done the European way of shuffling or the riffle shuffle. Lovely and bubbly personality! Really enjoyed your personality/video!!! 💜💜💜 P.S. Could you please perhaps do a separate video on the "Jumper/Flyer method" with your thoughts and feelings about how to do it? I'm master card reader of 33 years and I find this particular method to be the most exciting of them all when I've been doing the European and riffle shuffle all these years! "Much peace and love be with you!" 💯

Beautiful deck and thank you

I love those pink and gold cards very pretty colors

Thanks for sharing. I love to riffle shuffle. That's why I love smaller decks which aren't many in the market . I will trim them.

Awesome tips! I’m a good shuffler with normal cards but my hands are small and these cards are BIG lol I like the over and under now, using your thumb really helps instead of just letting the cards fall everywhere 😅

This was by far the most helpful shuffling video I’ve watched thank you so much 🙏

Thanks for piles 2.0! My deck is so big I can barely hold it so this so helpful

these tips are fantastical!

I like to use the riffle shuffle on cards that are thin enough. But what I also do is take a few cards off the top and put them either on the bottom or somewhere else in the deck between each riffle. Otherwise, the cards you start out with on the top tend to stay on the top. I do the washing machine to start with, though, to ensure I've got some reversed cards as well as uprights. And sometimes I add in the 'stacks' as well, just to ensure that the card order is scrambled. I always clear my cards after each reading by putting them back in original order, so this stacking thing is important for me. I sometimes use the over/under method, but for some reason the readings don't work as well for me when I do that. Strange. I can get them shuffled okay, but the readings don't tend to jump out at me as being correct.

I just got my first deck and was having very time. I think I found my technique, thank you!

Thank you so much for showing the edge riffle shuffle! I can riffle and bridge shuffle perfectly, but I have tiny hamster hands, so it's pretty hard for me to shuffle some of these larger/thicker decks (especially the Modern Witch Tarot). I feel like riffling is the best way to shuffle so I'm gonna start practicing the edge method, thanks!

I tend to riffle shuffle a couple of times to actually shuffle, then use the over/under technique to see what cards "jump out".

I do two ways. When I first get my cards out I do the second piles method to shuffle them into equal upright and reversals while thinking of my intention for a reading. Then I do the over and under thing. 😅

What tarot deck was there with raspberry color background?

From where i can buy the same pink& gold cards ?

I tried to learn how to bridge from light seers tarot, bad news bears lol. I also practiced on an RWS beginner tarot deck & tarot of the divine in which many a card got mangled (except for tarot of the divine.) Currently I’ve been practicing on an old stack of trimmed uno cards as I don’t want to keep ruining decks and for me I have such difficulty bridging as I bend the cards too upwards I believe. Practice makes progress however and this video is a great show & tell, so Ty darling! Btw, can’t wait for the Cosmic Wisdom Tarot. 🤍

Hlo dear can u please tell that aftef completing the reading while winding up everything do i have to set cards in order ? Or i can wind up the shuffled cards and put them in the box?

When you cut the deck in half, turn them upside down. Then shuffle, and if you want, you can do this process again to ensure you've got a good mix of reversals and uprights.

This is a great question Daisy! There are two options I can think of for this, the first being a card shuffling machine! The only problem is there are no Tarot card size shuffling machines, so what I would recommend is try to find one of those, and then see what the card dimensions have to be and then try to find a Tarot deck in those specs, or even trim the edges of a previous deck if it's not that much? Another option is the washing machine, where you just mess everything about, or an alternative to this is just throwing all your cards and then picking them up, but I'm not sure if you are able to do this. I truly wish I could help more, but I hope this helped!
