What this site does
You pick a spread (single card, three-card, Celtic Cross, and four others), set an intention, and draw your cards from a properly randomized full 78-card Rider-Waite-Smith deck. The position-by-position card meanings are written out and free. If you want a longer, personalized interpretation that weaves your specific cards together against your specific question, there's an optional $4.99 AI-powered reading. One-time, includes one free follow-up question, no subscription.
How the AI part works
The AI is Anthropic's Claude — given your specific cards (with positions, reversals, and your question) and a master-tarot-reader system prompt. The reading is written for your draw, not pulled from a template. Streaming output, per-word reveal, no spinners pretending to "consult the cards."
Claude responds in the language of your question. Ask in Spanish, German, Lithuanian — you'll get a reading in that language.
What this site explicitly doesn't do
No specific-event or specific-date predictions. We won't tell you whether you'll meet someone in March, get the job in October, or "expect news on a Tuesday." That's not because the cards can't suggest themes — it's because turning themes into predictions is where tarot stops being a mirror for reflection and starts being a fortune-telling product, with all the false certainty that comes with it. In some jurisdictions, the line between the two matters legally.
The other thing this site doesn't do: paywall the basics. Card meanings, all six spreads, the actual reading itself — free. The paid AI interpretation is the optional luxury, not the gate.
