Tarot Card Reader Help and Information:
The term Querent is often used in Tarot Card Reading, to refer to the
person for whom the reading is being done. In the Celtic ten card method
of reading, a card called the significator, is chosen to represent the
Querent. The other ten cards are then taken off the top of the deck and
in order, placed in relation to the significator.
As the reading is being done, you will be given a description of each
card, and the cards interpretation in relation to the significator. It is
important that you take into consideration the position of the card in
relation to the significator, because the same card can mean something
very different in another position. For example The Fool card means:
Folly, mania, extravagance, intoxication, delirium, frenzy, bewrayment.
If this card is "behind" you, it may mean you have overcome your foolish
folly. But if the card is "before" you, it may be warning you to beware
of foolish behavior, folly, and extravagance.
The follwing diagram will show you what each card means (before, behind,
etc.) in relation to the Querent.

for the matter at hand. In other words, yes/no questions can not be properly
answered by the reader. Giving this generalness of Tarot reading, you must
understand that not all cards will have relevance in their position to the
