How do we use the Tarot properly and how do we know we are getting the right cards for our questions? Because the cards are randomly picked...
If we ask the same question like three times and we get the same cards every time then we can say that yes there's something there, however if I do the experiment three times and each time the cards are different then it feels like I'm just picking random cards but then trying to interpret them in relation to my question, this can seem subjective.

Secondly, it is possible to use the cards for prediction and investigation. The method is simple, and is explained later in this book. Simply be aware that it is necessary to meditate profoundly on the answer received.
The terrestrial mind will usually not understand the answer, and will want to ask again. Don’t do it! God does not have problems with hearing or memory, and knows what you need to hear. Ask once, then seek to understand the answer given. Set aside the foolish mind. It is necessary to comprehend the answer intuitively, with the powers of the heart. Meditate, reflect, and pray. Watch your dreams. Be patient.
Having a respectful and humble attitude facilitates the accuracy and dependability of the Tarot. Those who use the Tarot as a business, game, or to ask superficial questions, will not be answered by the divine, and will instead fall into deeper confusion. Your Innermost Being — who is the one who will answer your inquiry — will not respond to the desires, manipulations, or interests of your desires.
One has to use the Tarot cards as though literally standing in the presence of Deity. In that presence, one would not ask stupid questions, but only questions of great importance.
An answer is precious, sacred. Treat it as such. Show respect and gratitude. Treat the Tarot as a sacred tool, and the answers you get will be sacred. Treat it disrespectfully or casually, and you will get nothing from it.
Upon receiving an answer, meditate and reflect upon it as though one had gone up with Moses to see the Living God face to face, and been told what to do. Whatever one was told —as inexplicable and mysterious the answer may have been — one would value it, and reflect upon it until understanding blooms in the heart.
When we get an answer, the resulting arcana provide intuitive and numerical guidance that can be investigated in scripture and in meditation for more details. This simple method can guide us even through very difficult problems.
The Tarot should never be used as a way of making money. Fortune-tellers are mere circus acts. The Innermost Being — who provides the answers to the deserving — is not a circus performer!

In synthesis, ask once, and reflect patiently on the answer given. Treat it as sacred and you will get the answer you need, although oftentimes one must earn the understanding of the answer!
