Card 1 – THINKING
This Card describes something that’s currently on your mind. It may refer to the thought itself, or the situation or events that caused it. If it doesn’t seem to match your thoughts, it may be pointing out something that is tucked away in the back of your mind, or referencing an overlooked or subtle aspect of the thought currently dominating your mind. This Card will also either shed light on to why you’re having this, or give you deeper insight into its nature or trajectory.
Card 2 – FEELING
This Card describes how you’re currently feeling. It may describe the feeling itself, the cause of the feeling, or something that the feeling makes you want to do. If your feelings are conflicted or complicated, this Card will point to a particular one that you would benefit from examining more closely to understand where it’s coming from or how it’s affecting you. This feeling may be directly related to the thought in Card 1, or completely separate – the more closely related they are, the more likely it is that the action described in Card 3 will also be a part of this through-line.
Card 3 – DOING
This Card describes what you’re currently doing, especially in relation to the thoughts and feelings from Cards 1 and 2. It may refer to your actions or the consequences they lead to, or point to some specific and important detail about the actions themselves. If this Card does not seem to match what you’re doing today, consider the possibility that you are doing something you’re not aware of, or do not understand the full implications of your actions. Look for patterns or themes among all 3 Cards for an overall assessment of your state, and for any additional wisdom that the Cards want you to know right now.

State Reading
Sometimes it takes an outside perspective to see ourselves clearly, so let the Cards assess your current mental and physical state. They may point out a truth you have overlooked, or perhaps do not want to face or admit.
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.

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.
