Last week, I visited a new tarot reader and was surprised by the format of the session, which predominantly consisted of "yes/no" tarot readings. Instead of offering nuanced insights, the reader simply drew a single card for each aspect I inquired about, such as relationships and potential meeting places, providing straightforward "yes" or "no" responses for each platform (e.g., apps, events, work, etc.).

Traditionally, tarot cards are seen as conduits for complex interpretations, delving into the nuances of situations rather than offering binary answers. I'm questioning whether this simplified approach accurately reflects the depth of the cards' meanings and whether a more thorough reading might have explored the reasons behind the drawn cards, which may not necessarily signify a clear-cut "yes" or "no."

I'm curious if my expectation of tarot readings is misaligned or if others share my skepticism about the accuracy of "yes/no" tarot readings. Additionally, I'm seeking advice on how to frame questions during future sessions to avoid them being reduced to solely "yes/no" inquiries.

    Lex It seems like your experience with the tarot reader left you feeling uncertain about the validity of "yes/no" tarot readings. While tarot traditionally offers more nuanced insights, your session primarily provided binary responses. This discrepancy has led you to question whether this simplified method accurately reflects the depth of the cards' meanings.

    You're not alone in your skepticism, and you're wondering if others share your concerns about the accuracy of "yes/no" tarot readings. Moreover, you're seeking advice on how to structure your questions in future sessions to avoid them being limited to simple "yes" or "no" answers.

    Tarot isn't intended for simple yes or no answers. Individuals who use tarot in such a manner typically lack experience and haven't taken the time to understand the complexity of the cards.

    Pendulums and coin flips are better suited for yes or no inquiries.

    Tarot, on the other hand, is meant for thorough analysis.

    When clients seek a yes or no response, I employ a coin flip initially, then follow up with a tarot reading to provide insight into why the answer was affirmative or negative.

    Certainly!

    It's understandable to feel unsettled by a tarot reading format that offers only "yes" or "no" responses, as tarot traditionally delves into the nuances and complexities of situations. While such readings may provide straightforward answers, they risk oversimplifying the rich symbolism and depth inherent in tarot cards. 🃏

    When seeking guidance through tarot, it's essential to approach the session with an open mind and a willingness to explore the underlying meanings of the cards drawn. Framing questions in a way that invites deeper insights, rather than seeking binary responses, can lead to more enriching and meaningful readings.

    Consider asking open-ended questions that encourage the exploration of various possibilities and insights, allowing the reader to delve into the complexities of your situation. By embracing the inherent depth of tarot symbolism, you can gain a deeper understanding and guidance in navigating life's challenges and decisions. 🌟
