Card 1 – SITUATION
This Card refers to the situation overall. It may describe the situation, or reference the events or circumstances that led to it. If this Card does not seem to match your situation, it is likely pointing to some aspect or side of the situation that you have to yet to fully recognize or appreciate. You can also click on its correspondences for additional clarifying details.
Card 2 – ACTION
This Card is pointing you towards an action you could take to improve or resolve the situation. It may or not be the action you should take, but the Cards are telling you that this act would be impactful. Alternatively, this Card could describe the action you want to take or are currently most likely to take. Look to Card 3 for more information about how this action would play out.
Card 3 – OUTCOME
This Card describes the outcome of the situation if the action of Card 2 is taken. It may be referring to a specific detail or complication that would result from this action, rather than summarizing the outcome overall – in this case, the Cards are warning you to think through that possibility before taking action.

Situation Reading
Look to the Cards for guidance with a situation you are facing. They will help you to see your position more clearly, give direction for how to proceed, and offer a glimpse into possible outcomes.
As always, remember that the cards do not need to be interpreted literally, sometimes need to be interpreted creatively, and even loose connections they spark are significant because they came to mind.
Extra Cards
Optionally, draw a Planet Card and Zodiac Card for additional clarity or guidance on the situation:

Doing a Reading
Ask or Explore
Tarot is versatile. You can ask a specific question—like “How can I improve my career?”—or simply draw cards to explore broader themes, such as relationships, personal growth, or hidden possibilities in your life.
Notice the Details
Every card has a position and context. These give a useful starting point, but pay attention to what stands out most vividly. Even if a card’s meaning initially seems unrelated, it might be highlighting something important you’re overlooking.
Trust Your Intuition
The cards guide you toward deeper connections and new insights. Trust your first reactions and intuitive impressions. If something resonates, explore it further. Often, Tarot reveals exactly what you need to hear, even if it differs from your initial question.
