What Kind of Questions Can I Ask in a Tarot Reading?

🃏 What Kind of Questions Can I Ask in a Tarot Reading?

Tarot is a tool for insight, clarity, and conscious decision-making. Whether you’re exploring love, career, or personal growth, asking the right question sets the tone for your reading.

✨ Ask Open-Ended, Empowering Questions

Rather than yes/no questions, try asking how, what, or why.
Example:
Instead of “Will I get the job?” → try “What can I do to align with the right career opportunity?”

Tarot offers reflection and possibilities — not fixed outcomes. The cards help reveal what’s in motion so you can move with greater awareness.
