At the most basic level, a reading involves several simple steps. You and your sitter (the person you are reading for) will sit down at a table and get comfortable. You may spend a minute to get into the proper frame of mind. I like to have myself and the sitter take turns holding a piece of Hematite, which is a small polished stone, to remove negative energies from our minds.
You will mix the Tarot cards, and then hand them to your sitter to mix. The idea here is that by mixing the cards themselves, the sitter will place some of their personal energy into the deck, and that their subconscious mind will direct the order of the cards in some way. Following this you may have a ceremony that you will develop as to how the sitter will choose the cards for their reading. This may involve having them cut the deck three times using their left (or non-writing) hand, and then having them fan the cards out and carefully choosing whatever number of cards is required for the reading you will do.
As before, there is no right or wrong way to do this. The process that you will develop for the introduction, mixing, and selection of the cards is totally of your own making and should simply have some meaning to you as the reader, and serve the purpose of personally connecting your sitter to the process.
