- IIIRead the lean, then read why the card answers that way.
How the Yes or No reading works
Every card carries a traditional lean. Bright, forward-moving cards like the Sun or the Ace of Cups lean yes. Cards of loss, delay or conflict like the Tower or the Five of Pentacles lean no. Cards of choice or waiting lean maybe.
A reversed card moves the answer one step toward no, because its energy is blocked or not yet ready.
Yes or No questions
How is the answer decided?
Each card leans yes, maybe or no based on its traditional meaning. A reversed card moves the answer one step toward no. You'll always see the reason.
How should I phrase my question?
Ask about one thing, in a way that can be answered yes or no, and that you can act on: "Should I apply for this role?" works better than "Will I be rich?"
Should I trust the answer?
Treat it as a mirror, not a verdict. Notice how you feel when you read it; that reaction is often the real answer.
