Frequently asked questions

Is the The Chariot a yes or a no?

Cards lean rather than answer. Upright, The Chariot leans toward the quality it names being available; reversed, that quality is obstructed. Read both with the rest of the spread.

Does reversed mean bad?

No. Reversed usually means the energy is internal, delayed or blocked — not the opposite of the upright meaning.

How much does the surrounding spread matter?

A great deal. Single-card readings are a starting point; neighbouring cards decide how this one actually reads.
