How to read a card page
- Look at the image first and write down your own sentence before reading on.
- Then read the three keywords: they are the shortest form of the meaning.
- Compare upright and reversed. Reversed does not mean “bad”, more that the theme is blocked or turned inwards.
- Finally ask: where did this already show up today? At breakfast, at work, on the phone?
Zodiac pages work in the same order: element and modality first, because they explain how a sign goes about things. For Aries the page lists Fire and Cardinal, and that tells you more about daily life than any list of traits.
How the content is made
- Data first: planet positions, moon phases and retrogrades are computed with the Swiss Ephemeris, the astronomical basis professional software uses. None of it is estimated.
- Plain language: every interpretation is written for beginners, with terms translated in the same breath.
- One responsible person: Theresa Touhey carries editorial responsibility for the interpretation texts. Her name is shown under the text and in the page’s structured data. Not every sentence is written by hand.
- A mirror, not an oracle: personal statements are phrased as questions you can check against your own life. You will not find predictions or verdicts about you here.
The pages are most useful next to your own chart or a card you have drawn: first the meaning, then the question whether it holds for you today. If you want to read this yourself, start with learn tarot or learn astrology. Theresa answers personal questions in writing in a personal reading.
