How to Read

Shuffle the deck while focusing on the decision you need to make. Draw 6 cards. Card 4 at the top — what to do. Card 1 on the left — the querent. Card 6 in the center — the result. Card 2 on the right — what to pay attention to. Card 3 bottom-left — what to avoid. Card 5 bottom-right — unexpected help. Read from center: who you are (1), what to do and avoid (3–4), help (5), outcome (6).

Tips & Advice

Card 1 is your starting point. Compare it with card 6 (result): if they harmonize — the path is correct. Cards 3 and 4 are opposites: one says 'do', the other — 'don't'. Their contrast is the key to understanding the situation. Card 5 (unexpected help) often points to a person or circumstance you don't yet suspect.
