How do I not let tarot destroy my natural instincts?

Recently got into it after a friend gave me a reading so I got my own deck and started learning and reading for myself.

It is fun and I found it to be therapeutic as well to some extent in helping me see situations I’m going through from an objective lens and giving me hope for change and possibilities.

But I don’t want my feelings and natural instincts to become attached to a deck of cards and get easily influenced by the readings. I still want to be able to self reflect and take the next steps in life without the cards “assistance” so how do I keep that healthy distance and not cross into dependence territory?
