How Tarot Works

One honest starting point for understanding tarot and choosing a spread with intention.

How Tarot Works

Tarot imagery gives you a way to notice thoughts, feelings, and choices that are already present. The cards are a prompt for reflection, not a verdict about the future.

  • Projection: connect an image with your lived experience.
  • Meaning: notice what feels relevant in this moment.
  • Story: weave several cards into a fresh perspective.

Tarot Basics

A standard deck has 78 cards: 22 Major Arcana for significant lessons and turning points, and 56 Minor Arcana for everyday experiences. Reversed cards can suggest blocked energy or another side of a meaning.
