 Steps...
  • Think of your questions to your subconcious and possibly write it down.
  • Click on the "Show Deck at Subliminal Speed" button and watch the cards until they are finished running through the deck.
    (The card order will be freshly sorted.)
    ...ask your subconcious to watch the cards and give you two card numbers [From the bottom of the card: "Card Position Now" as follows...
    • THE ANSWER: Enter a card number from 0 to the total shown in the text box next to the button "Show Answer Card #" and then press that button. This will be the "answer" to your question. This is up to your interpretation. But you may need another card to modify this answer...
    • THE MODIFIER CARD: Enter a card number from 0 to total shown in the text box next to the button "Show Modifier Card #" and then press that button. This will be the "modifier" to your "answer" card for your question. This is up to your interpretation.
  • An exanple might be as follows:
    - My question is "What are my concerns today?"
    - My Answer card is the two of wands.
    - The meaning of this card is "Blending and becoming very adept at CREATION - BUILDING".
    - I think to myself - hmmm...I have just started building a piece of furniture and feel pretty good about the progress. This might be the interpretation of the card...
    - I then draw the modifier card and it turns out to be The Queen of Cups - "A mature woman who is influencing you in EMOTION - LOVE" - and wouldn't you know it I bet my wife will really love this new furniture that I'm building.
    - ...and I remember that this is a game and not to be taken seriously. Well that was fun!

 The logic...I have based the logic on Tarot interpretation from the book "Tarot Plain and Simple by Anthony Louis" (I highly recommend this book as a much better actual explanation of the Tarot) and my own extrapolations on the idea that Freud's subliminal mind concept can at least use these cards to achieve some sort of communication with that submliminal mind by use of speed and archetypical symbology as a common communication language. I use a basic layout of a question with the first card choice as the answer and the second card choice as the modification to the first card. I put basic card explanations on each card so your subconcious can read them. You can also look at the cards at "human speed" by pressing the button "Show Deck at Slow Speed". In both cases you can click on the "Optional: Stop Cards" to stop the shuffle and show you the current card. The process here, however, is based on your viewing the entire deck subconsiously so the stop button is not part of the normal steps. The chosen cards, however, are up to your own interpretation. Keep in mind that this is just a fun way to use the Tarot and is by no means a truly scientific or necessarily valid technique to really see into your subconcious. If you want to solve a real psychological issue please consult a licensed professional counselor, psychologist, or psychiatrist because this is essentially a novelty "game" and nothing more...
  • Tarot cards are based on archetypes of several aspects of our human lives:
    •    Emotion/Love (Cups)
    •    Creation/Building (Wands)
    •    Power (Swords)
    •    Wealth/Money (Pentacles)
    • The cards also have "people in our lives" aspect cards.
      • The "pip" cards above go from 1 (Ace) to 10 and these represent a flow through the above aspects of our lives.
        (The following are my personal "short" versions from different book and web sources.)
        • 1. Begining aspect...
        • 2. Balancing toward skill...
        • 3. Blending and becoming very adept...
        • 4. Establishing foundations...
        • 5. Upsetting the prior stability...(red flag!)
        • 6. Re-establishing abilities...
        • 7. Lose some stability because of new awarness...
        • 8. Mastery and acknowledgement of errors...
        • 9. Completion, mastery, crystalization...
        • 10. Ending of current involvement and ready to move on from...
      • The "pip" cards from 11 to 13 represent aspects of people that may affect our flow through the above aspects of our lives.
      • ...people of influence...
        • 11. The Knight tends to represent a younger person in our lives.
        • 12. The Queen tends to represent a significant woman or feminine influence.
        • 13. The King tends to represent a significant man or masculine influence.
    • There is also a series of cards in the deck referred to as the "Major Arcana" (where the "pip" cards are refered to as the "Minor Arcana")
      These cards represent positions that we find ourselves in as we progress through life goals.
