Card of the Day

1 card · 1 minute

A single card drawn as the Significator: what today asks of you. Quick enough to do every morning, and the journal makes a record of the run.

Three-Card

3 cards · 3 to 5 minutes

A quick, clear reading for a single question or a daily draw. Past, present and future, each read in its own position with the same depth as the big spread.

Present
Future

Mind, Body, Spirit

3 cards · 3 to 5 minutes

Three cards for the three layers of a person: what is occupying your thoughts and feelings, what is going on in your body and material life, and what your spirit is reaching toward. A good spread when the question is simply "how am I?"

Celtic Cross

10 cards · 10 to 15 minutes

The classic full reading. It looks at what sits at the heart of a question, what crosses it, where it came from and where it is heading, your own part in it, the people around you, and what you hope and fear.

Horseshoe

7 cards · 7 to 10 minutes

A seven-card arc that walks a question from its past through the present, the influences you cannot see, the obstacle in the way, the people around you, and the advice, to a likely outcome. Fuller than three cards, lighter than the Celtic Cross.

Relationship

6 cards · 6 to 8 minutes

For any bond between two people: a partner, a friend, a parent, a colleague. It looks at what each of you brings, what holds you together and what pulls you apart, what you need to do, and where the relationship is heading.

Two Paths

5 cards · 5 to 8 minutes

For a choice between two courses. One card for where you stand, one for each path and where it leads, one for what you are not seeing, and one for advice. Read the two paths side by side and notice which costs you can live with.

How a reading works

1
Hold a question
Open a spread with something specific in mind. The positions give the cards a frame, and the question gives the positions one.
2
Shuffle and deal
Deal here, or lay out your own deck and choose “Enter my own cards” on any spread to read the cards as you drew them. Deal again as many times as you like; nothing is saved until you choose to.
3
Read each position
Every card gets a reading written for the position it landed in, plus its keywords, the story in the picture, and Waite’s original 1911 meanings.

Make it a practice

A free account turns readings into a habit you can look back on. Draw a card each morning, write a line each evening about where it showed up, and set a day to revisit the readings that mattered.

1
A card in the morning
The Card of the Day takes a minute. Save it and it waits for you on your calendar.
2
A line in the evening
The calendar asks where today’s card turned up. One moment is enough, and it is kept with the draw.
3
A look back when it is time
Every saved reading can carry one thing to do and a date to return. The calendar marks the day, and your patterns page shows what keeps coming up.

7 decks, one set of meanings

Readings default to the Rider–Waite–Smith deck (1909), drawn by Pamela Colman Smith and still the deck most people learn on. Switch to a Renaissance, French or modern deck from any spread or card page; the meanings stay the same, the pictures change.
