Why this Tarot tool uses the Major Arcana
The deck on this page contains the 22 Major Arcana cards, from The Fool to The World. They are presented as images and themes for reflection. The page does not include the Minor Arcana or claim to reproduce every tradition, deck or spread used by Tarot readers.
Tarot cards began as European playing cards; divinatory and occult uses developed later. A card's modern keyword is not a single timeless definition. The interpretation here is written to invite a question—for example, a card about structure might prompt you to examine a boundary—not to claim that the card knows what will happen.
Reading a card without treating it as proof
Notice the image, read the short theme, then connect it to a specific part of your question. Ask what you already know, what remains uncertain and what practical next step would still make sense if you had never drawn the card. The optional question is used locally and is not sent with anonymous usage analytics.
