02 — Tarot Reading

Pick a spread. Choose your cards.

Choose the layout that fits your question, then pick your own cards from the complete seventy-eight card deck — shuffled on your device, dealt face-down and adrift, waiting for your hand. A practitioner reads the cards you chose and writes the reading into your account.

Step 01 — Choose a spread

How deep do you want to go?

I Single card 1 card · quickest One position, one honest answer. Best when you already know the question. II Three cards 3 cards · most popular Situation, tension, direction. The whole story in three cards. III Celtic Cross 10 cards · fullest Ten positions for a situation that has layers — and time to give it.

Step 02 — Choose your cards

Pick them yourself

Spread: none chosen yet —

The deck has been shuffled on your own device and lies face-down, adrift. Every back hides a card that was dealt before your first pick — which card, and whether it lands upright or reversed, stays sealed until you choose. Pick as many cards as your spread asks for.

Step 03 — Get the reading

Ask your question.

The spread above is saved with it. The reading is written into your account, with the cards you drew kept alongside it — we no longer send it to you by email.

Cards are drawn on your device; the reading is saved to your account.

How the draw works

All seventy-eight cards — twenty-two Major and fifty-six Minor Arcana, each with its painted face.
You pick, the deck decides what hides — the shuffle happens before your first pick, so no back can be peeked under.
Upright or reversed — sealed with the shuffle, revealed when the card turns.
Reshuffle if it feels wrong — a fresh deck is dealt as often as you like before sending.

Keep your question in mind while you pick. One question per spread reads more clearly than five.

What arrives

Spread reference

What each position means

Whichever spread you choose, the positions are read in order and as one picture — not as ten separate fortunes.

Single card

1 position

The answer — where the matter really stands.

Three cards

3 positions

Situation — what is actually going on.
Tension — what is in the way.
Direction — where it is heading.

III

Celtic Cross

10 positions

Ten cards laid across one situation: the matter itself, what crosses it, the root, the recent past, the aim, the near future, your own stance, outside influence, hopes and fears, and the outcome.

If you chose the Celtic Cross

The ten positions

1 Present — the heart of the matter What is really going on

2 Challenge — what crosses it The tension, or the help

3 Foundation — the root beneath What the situation rests on

4 Recent past — what led here Just leaving the picture

5 Crown — what you are aiming at The conscious goal

6 Near future — what arrives next Weeks, not years

7 Self — your own stance How you are reading it

8 Environment — outside influence Other people, and luck

9 Hopes & fears What you want, and dread

10 Outcome — where this resolves If nothing changes

Tarot questions

Yes. The whole seventy-eight card deck is shuffled in your browser using your device's own random source before the backs are laid out — so which card hides behind each back, and whether it lies upright or reversed, is already sealed and cannot be peeked at, guessed, or influenced. What you choose is which mystery you take; the deck decides what the mystery is.

As often as you like, before you send. But be honest with yourself: a reshuffle until you like the cards is a way of not asking the question. If a spread unsettles you, that is usually the spread to send.

A reversed card is not simply the opposite. It usually points to the same energy turned inward, delayed, resisted or overdone. Your practitioner will read it in the context of the position it landed in.

One. A spread read against three unrelated questions reads as noise, and that is not a useful thing to pay for. If you have several questions, send them as separate spreads.
