You're not alone

Choose whatever helps right now.

If a life is in danger

Call the local emergency number, or ask someone nearby to call. If you have already hurt yourself or taken something dangerous, call now, even if you feel all right.

Where are you right now?

Help numbers depend on the country you're in, not on the site's language. We never ask for access to your location.

What you can do right now

  • If anything nearby could be used to hurt yourself, put it out of reach or ask someone to stay with you.
  • Message someone you trust: “I’m having a hard time. Can you be with me?”
  • You don't have to solve everything now. Getting through the next few minutes is enough.

Talk to a person

If you're having thoughts of hurting yourself or of not wanting to live, call a support line. They will listen without judgment. You can also call when things simply feel too heavy.

Choose your country above to see its support lines. Lines in many countries are also listed in the Find A Helpline directory.

Tarot spread · 1 card

Card of the day

One card for today: an image you can come back to throughout the day.

By Tarot tradition: a mirror, not a verdict

  1. Card of the day
Open this spread

The cards open right on your device. The spread is shared by everyone for the day.

When it fits

In the morning, to choose what to pay attention to today. In the evening, to look back on the day and notice what mattered in it.

When you want a short pause: one card takes a couple of minutes to read and needs no preparation.

Positions of the spread

Card of the day

The card of the day is read as a focus of attention: an image you can come back to during the day. It is not an event on its way, but a question worth keeping close.

How the spread goes

  1. Breathe out slowly and open the card.
  2. Read the image and its meaning, and stay with what resonates.
  3. Take one question for yourself into the day. In the evening you can come back to it and notice what has changed.

What this spread does not do

  • It does not say what kind of day it will be and does not sort days into lucky and unlucky ones.
  • It does not change when you open it again: the card is shared by everyone for the day, and a new one opens after midnight.

In the tarot tradition, for reflection. The card does not know the future and is no substitute for professional advice.
