Career tarot
Take a work problem apart and see the next step.
Work questions rarely have just one variable: skills, resources, timing, people and your own energy. A career reading places these factors in separate positions so you can see where the block is, where the resources are and which step is worth taking first.
Interviews, stalled projects, juggling several jobs, thinking about a change of field: each has a spread. The reading won't decide for you; it lays out the conditions and the costs.

Pick the situation closest to yours
Job search, interviews and growth
Five cards cover the career theme, the resources you have, real constraints, the preparation you need and the theme of what comes next. Useful when applying, preparing for interviews or reviewing your year.
Good for: job hunting, preparing to move, taking stock before a promotion.
For example: I'm preparing to change jobs. What should I strengthen first?
Suggested reader: Lu Heng- Career theme
- Resources
- Constraints
- Preparation
- Development theme
Stuck at work: find the block
A project that won't move, communication that isn't working, learning that has stalled. Three cards look at the situation, the main obstacle and an action you can take: short and direct when you want a quick, clear view.
Good for: a specific block, communication problems, a learning plateau.
For example: This project won't move forward. Where is the real block?
Suggested reader: Yaqing- Situation
- Challenge
- Action
Juggling roles and energy
When a main job, a side project, study and life all run at once, the four-card execution spread shows the core, what makes execution hard, what to drop and what to check when you review.
Good for: several roles at once, a side business, too much on your plate.
For example: I'm running a side project next to my job. How should I split my energy?
Suggested reader: Yaqing- Core
- Execution challenge
- Reduce load
- Review signal
A career change or complex situation
The Celtic Cross is the classic ten-card spread, for questions with many factors, other people involved or a long time frame: present situation, core challenge, past influence, near-term outlook, goals, deeper motives, your role, outside conditions, hopes and worries, overall direction.
Good for: changing field, starting a business, a major role change. An advanced spread with a lot to read.
For example: I'm thinking of moving from operations into design. What factors should I look at?
Suggested reader: Lu Heng- Present situation
- Core challenge
- Past influence
- Near-term outlook
- Goals and thoughts
- Deeper motivation
- My role
- External conditions
- Hopes and fears
- Synthesis

Rephrase for a more useful reading
Instead ofWill I be promoted this year?
TryWhat could I focus on over the next three months to make a promotion more likely?
Outcomes depend on many people and conditions. Ask about what you can move.
Instead ofWill I get this job?
TryFor this application, what are my strengths and what should I shore up?
Tarot doesn't decide hiring, but it can help you prepare better.
Instead ofWhat am I suited to?
TryBetween the two directions I'm considering, what matters most to me, and what would each cost?
Too broad a question leaves the positions with nothing to anchor to.

What others asked
More examplesCommon questions
Can a career reading tell me whether to quit?
It can help you see the conditions and costs of staying and leaving, but it won't decide for you. Decisions about income and living arrangements need real facts and people you trust.
Can I ask about income or investments?
We don't give investment advice or predict income. Try a question you can act on, such as how to make your work more valuable.
Which spread before an interview?
Short on time, draw a single card for the one thing to remember today; with more time, use the five-card career spread for a full review of strengths and preparation.
Why does a different spread give a different result?
Each spread looks from a different angle, and each draw is a new observation. What matters is whether the reading shows you something you hadn't noticed.
