The basics

Which tarot card am I: how the test works

The test asks you 9 short everyday questions: a free Saturday, a friend in a crisis, a plan that falls apart. Each answer counts toward some of the 22 major arcana. At the end you get the card most of your answers point to, and below it you see exactly those answers.

The card texts are mirrors, not verdicts. They describe what many people with this card recognize in themselves and give you one question to answer honestly. If another card speaks to you more, that is a result too.

Test or birth card?

The test shows how you see yourself today. Your tarot birth card, on the other hand, comes from your birth date and stays the same for life. Putting both side by side is interesting: do they match, or does the test show a different side of you right now? For your current year there is also the year card.

Statistics · 262,144 combinations

Which card comes out of the test most often?

9 questions with four answers each make 262,144 possible combinations. They lead most often to The Chariot (7.2%) and least often to The Tower (2.9%). With a perfectly even spread, each card would get 4.5%.

The spread is not perfectly even because some cards appear in more answers than others. Real people also do not answer at random, so the figure says something about the test, not about how many people are which card.

FAQ

Tarot personality test FAQ

How does the test work?
Each answer gives two points to one of the 22 major arcana and one point each to two others. At the end the card with the most points wins. A tie is settled by a fixed order that shifts with your answers, so the low card numbers do not always win.
How accurate is the result?
The test is a mirror, not a diagnosis. It shows which card fits the answers you give today. Read the text for your card and check which parts you recognize and which you do not.
Can my card change?
Yes. People who take the test in a different phase of life often answer differently. That is the difference from the birth card, which comes from the birth date and never changes.
Why only the major arcana?
The 22 major arcana describe big life themes, from the Fool setting out to the World closing the circle. The 56 minor arcana show everyday situations. For a question about personality, the major ones fit better.
Are my answers stored?
No. The test works out the result in your browser. We do not see your answers, and they are gone when you reload the page.
