What Is Tarot Reading?

Tarot reading uses card symbols to review the present situation, feelings, and possible next choices.

The basic idea

Tarot is not used here to guarantee the future. It is a symbolic tool for looking at a question from another angle.

The Major Arcana

Moon Arcana focuses on the 22 Major Arcana cards, reading broad themes such as beginnings, choices, change, recovery, and completion.

How to read cards

A useful reading combines the card name, upright or reversed position, the question, and the surrounding flow.
