A modern tarot deck is made up of 52 cards. While the type of tarot card layout---or "spread"---can vary by website or online tarot reading session, the intention behind the tarot remains largely the same: to predict luck and request psychic guidance. There are a number of online websites that allow both novice and advanced tarot card enthusiasts to read or interpret tarot cards online.

Instructions
1
Select a website from the plethora available online, and decide if you want to obtain a free reading or pay for a more advanced reading. Many websites offer free basic readings; an additional fee is charged for more in-depth or live tarot readings.
2
Choose a type of spread. The spread will determine the number and placement of tarot cards used for a reading. Three-card spreads, five-card spreads, nine-card spreads and shape-based options such as the Celtic cross spread are commonly used for live and online tarot readings.
3
Determine a question or theme for the reading. Questions of love, wealth, work, health and fertility will determine how the reading is performed; each question should be stated at the start of the reading. For example, if the tarot reading centers on love, the website may ask you to define your status---i.e., single, married, widowed or divorced. Your theme or query will determine how many questions you are prompted to answer and how far into the future the reading will investigate.
4
Provide your date of birth and gender. You may also be prompted to enter other information on the website, including your birth name and state or country of origin.
5
Follow the directions provided by the website. Many online tarot card and medium websites allow you to choose a psychic and then contact a toll-free number for a free tarot card reading; certain restrictions may apply, such as receiving a basic reading or a set number of minutes. Others offer features such as decks that are shuffled electronically in the same way that online card games are shuffled and distributed for online players.
Tips & Warnings
Some tarot card websites specialize in themed readings.
Never provide your credit card number to a website with which you are not familiar.
