Frequently asked questions
What questions can you ask tarot cards?
Any questions about your relationships, work, money, future and yourself. Open-ended questions with “what,” “how” or “which” and a clear time frame work best.
What questions should I ask tarot about a guy?
For example: “How does he feel about our relationship?”, “What matters to him in his relationship with me?”, “Is he ready for the next step in the coming six months?”
What should you not ask tarot?
About health and diagnoses, about how long someone will live, and about another person’s life without that person’s involvement.
How this article was prepared
This text was written with the help of AI, based on the sources listed below and on the questions people actually search for. Every factual statement — about the history of decks, what a deck contains, what authors wrote — has a footnote. The text was then checked by a separate AI instance that took no part in writing it: it compared the facts with the footnotes, and errors were corrected. The English version is a translation of the original Russian article.
We describe reading practices — how to shuffle, charge or “cleanse” a deck — as traditions and habits of tarot readers, not as proven methods: there is no scientific evidence for divination. Read more on our editorial policy page. Found a mistake? Let us know via the contact form.
