How a reading works

Tarot here is used as a mirror for your situation — with every step of how it works out in the open, and nothing vague dressed up as mystery.

01

Drawn once, fixed at once

Your three cards are drawn together with the Fisher–Yates shuffle on your browser's random source, then saved before you read a single word. Turning the cards only reveals them — no card can be swapped along the way.

02

What is not yet read is not yet seen

You see all three cards as soon as you choose them. But while you read the first two cards, the reading system does not even receive the third card's data. Not hidden — never sent. So the first part can never hint at what comes next.

03

Numbers are computed, never guessed

The balance of elements, the number of Major Arcana, the share of reversed cards and the timing convention are all calculated with fixed rules before the reading is written. The writing interprets; it never invents a figure.

04

Read from the image on the card

Each card comes with a description of what is actually painted on it — the figures, objects and gestures you are looking at — so the reading can point to one telling detail instead of reciting a definition.

05

Written like a conversation

The reading follows one thread: the first card, the second, the third, the flow between them, then what you can do and — only if you asked — when. No fear, no promises it cannot keep, and never a substitute for professional advice.
