Ask the Tarot

It's important to emphasize that the cards do not make decisions on behalf of the querent. The cards allow the universe to convey messages and assist the querent in making the right decisions among all available options.

The way you ask the tarot cards what the universe has in store can be challenging. What if you ask the question incorrectly? What if you receive vague or unclear information?

The querent should frame the question in the language of tarot.

There are various types of spreads, and each spread requires a slightly different way of framing the question. Each spread has its own guidance to provide different insights and focuses suitable for the depth of the answer.

Tarot cards are a tool that opens a channel to a wealth of answers; effectiveness in card reading starts with properly formulated questions.

Why is it important to phrase the question correctly?

Imagine your financial situation or your romantic life isn't great and feels like a big mess, and you worry it will never improve. If the querent asks, "What will my financial situation be in a year?" or "What will my love life be like in a year?"
The cards may suggest an optimistic outlook for the future. The problem is that the querent doesn't know how to act on the answer received from the cards, and may now believe things will work out on their own... only to find the outcome is the opposite. It's crucial to frame questions precisely to enhance the clarity of the answers.

A better question might be: "How can I change my financial situation?" or "How can I improve my romantic life?" The answer will now provide a series of actions to choose from and implement to see results.

How to ask the right questions to the tarot cards?

It is important to take a few breaths and connect with your heart and soul before formulating your question.

  • The topic of the question should be clear and unambiguous.
  • Avoid any information irrelevant to the question's topic.
  • Set a time frame for the question.
  • In a daily reading, receive an answer about the energy of that day.
  • What will my love energy be today?
  • What will my financial energy be today?
  • What energy will surround me today?
  • Will today be a day of new discoveries?
  • In a directional question, frame it so the outcome is desirable and the answer supports or addresses the topic or situation.
  • Will I find a partner and love in the coming year?
  • Will my financial situation improve in the coming year?
  • Is it safe for me to travel to South America?
  • Will the results of the audition be positive?
  • In questions with specific wording, each part of the question has separate meaning. The answer helps understand the querent's subconscious, strengths, and other factors related to the question.
  • Is it right for me and Michal to be in a relationship?
  • Is it right for me to start working at Amdocs this week?
  • Is it right for me to buy a new car this month?

Tarot as Your Personal Advisor

It's always recommended to consult the tarot, even if the querent only seeks general guidance and insights. Although you can start a reading by asking for a message from the universe, part of the challenge in formulating the question is recognizing that the querent is often in a state of uncertainty. Focusing the question will lead to a more accurate and clear answer.

Curiosity Killed the Cat

Avoid asking about how another person feels. Tarot readers are not mind readers. I believe it’s simpler to ask the other person directly rather than use the tarot cards to understand their state.

Health or legal questions: The cards can provide insights into the energy of the situation, but consult with your doctor or lawyer for such matters.

Questions driven by curiosity about someone else’s life, such as wanting to know about an ex’s sex life with a new partner, are not suitable for the cards. Focus on issues directly related to your own life.

In Conclusion

Ask a focused question, not a vague or ambiguous one. Try to direct your questions towards positive energy rather than negative energy. Avoid asking the same question repeatedly after receiving an answer, as the cards will provide ambiguous answers that might confuse the querent. Since the querent acts as a sort of translator of the cards' intentions, avoid letting emotional states, beliefs, or preconceived notions affect the reading or obscure the messages from the guiding spirit.

Now that you have the secret to the tarot language and how to ask tarot cards, you are invited to ask your question.
