Love Tarot Reading

A three-card relationship spread: thoughts, feelings and the subconscious.

Ask the cards

Take a breath and think of the person you have in mind. Then focus on your question about the two of you.

How it works

  1. Focus on your question. You don’t have to type it. If you do, it stays in this browser tab: we never send it anywhere, save it or add it to the page address.
  2. Shuffle the deck. Your browser shuffles all 78 cards using its built-in secure random number generator and the Fisher–Yates method, a standard technique that makes every order of the deck equally likely. At the same moment, it decides whether each card is upright or reversed, with even odds when reversed cards are included.
  3. Choose three cards. The top twelve cards of the shuffled deck are laid out face down. Each card you choose fills the next position in order (Thoughts, Feelings, then Subconscious), or you can let the deck pick for you. Your choices only select places in the row. The order was already set by the shuffle, so neither your clicks nor the wording of your question changes which cards you get.
  4. Read the cards. Each position shows its card, upright or reversed, with a short love and relationships interpretation written for this site and based on the card’s traditional meaning. There’s no automatic summary: how the three cards relate to one another is yours to reflect on.

The three positions

1. Thoughts
What may be on their mind about you and your connection.
2. Feelings
The emotional tone they may bring to the relationship.
3. Subconscious
Deeper hopes, fears or patterns that may shape the relationship beneath the surface.

How to phrase your question

  • Focus on one person and one relationship: a partner, someone you’re dating or someone you’re drawn to.
  • Ask open questions. “What does this person value in our connection?” works better than “Will they message me tonight?”
  • Ask to understand, not to control. The cards can’t make anyone feel a certain way, and they can’t read minds.
  • If anything in a relationship feels unsafe, talk to someone you trust or contact a professional support service. A card reading is no substitute for real support.

About the deck

The card faces are scans of the deck Pamela Colman Smith illustrated in collaboration with Arthur Edward Waite, first published in 1909. Her artwork from that first printing is in the public domain. The card back is our own design, based on the feather of Maat.
