Three-card tarot spread

A traditional 3-card spread draws three cards from a shuffled deck to read in sequence. Our spread uses the classic Past / Present / Future layout: the first card reflects what you carry from the past, the second names the present moment, the third points toward where you are moving. Each card is read in its position, then woven together.

Daily Tarot deals one card per day, seeded to you — same card all day, fresh tomorrow. This spread shuffles fresh every time you visit. The daily card is for return-visit reflection; the three-card spread is for sitting down with a specific question once.

Strongly recommended. The spread lands more usefully when it has somewhere specific to land. Write your question in the box at the top — a decision in front of you, a relationship you're sitting with, a tension you can't name. The cards become more legible once anchored.

After you click Shuffle, the 78-card deck spreads out face-down. Click any three cards in sequence — the first becomes your Past card, the second your Present, the third your Future. The cards then flip one at a time and the full reading appears below.

Three-card spreads are traditionally a single-session practice — a real reader reshuffles for each reading. Fresh-shuffling matches that ritual. Your privacy is still protected: the shuffle happens in your browser using a one-time seed that never reaches our servers.

Yes. Each card has a 50% chance of arriving reversed (upside-down). Reversed cards typically read as the inverse, blockage, or shadow side of the upright meaning. We rotate the card image 180° in your reading when it is reversed.

No. The shuffle and the interpretation are calculated in your browser. We don't log the cards you draw, the question you write, or anything else. If you refresh the page, you'll get a fresh shuffle and a clean state.
