Your Daily Tarot Card

Your tarot birth cards

Add your birth month, day and year, then reduce the total until it is 22 or less. This is the tarot birth card method popularised by Mary K. Greer. Most people get two cards: one that reads as who you are, and one that reads as what you grow into.

Worked example: 5 June 1988 → 6 + 5 + 1988 = 1999 → 28 → 10 Wheel of Fortune → 1 The Magician.

Common questions

How does a daily tarot card work?

You draw one card for the day and read its meaning as a prompt for reflection. Here the card is fixed for the whole day, so you get the same card each time you visit, and a new one tomorrow.

What are tarot birth cards?

Cards drawn from the numbers in your birth date. You add the month, day and year and reduce the total to 22 or less, which points to one or more Major Arcana cards.

Do you need to know tarot to use this?

No. Every card comes with its keywords and a plain-language meaning.
