One-Card Daily Tarot
A single card to carry through the day.
The one-card spread is tarot's daily practice: one card drawn each morning as a theme, not a prediction. It sets intention better than it forecasts events — patience, courage, softness — a lens for the day's decisions. Drawn at night, the same card helps make meaning of what happened. Simple, repeatable, and the foundation every reader starts with.

Questions, answered
How does the one-card daily tarot work?
You focus on your question while 1 card(s) are drawn, each landing in a named position. The positions give each card its context — the same card means different things in different seats.
Do I need to know tarot to use this spread?
No. Selene interprets every card in its position and weaves them into one reading written around your question. The position guide below is for the curious.
Is a bigger spread always better?
Not necessarily. Small spreads answer focused questions cleanly; large spreads like the Celtic Cross suit complex situations with history and competing factors. Match the spread to the question's size.
