A Tarot reading in
the Waite–Smith tradition

Ask once, and ask plainly.

The cards are not oracles of vagueness. Speak your question plainly, and with the particulars that give it weight, for a question asked in shadow returns an answer wrapped in the same shadow. Tell me the name you fear to say, the date that haunts you, the choice that waits unmade. Give me something to hold, and I will give you something true in return.
