Discover the Major Arcana cards that define your life path. Your birth cards reveal your core archetype, soul purpose, and life theme.
Tarot birth cards are the Major Arcana cards calculated from your birthday using tarot numerology. Unlike tarot readings that change with each shuffle, your birth cards are permanent — they represent your core life archetype, personality essence, and soul purpose from birth to death.
A tarot birth card calculator reduces your full birth date to a number between 1 and 22, corresponding to one of the 22 Major Arcana cards. Most people have a birth card pair — a Personality Card (your visible expression) and a Soul Card (your deeper motivation).

The calculation is based on tarot numerology — the ancient connection between numbers and the Major Arcana. Here is how it works:
The outer expression of your archetype. This is how the world experiences you — your visible traits, approach to challenges, and the energy you radiate.
The hidden motivation driving your life. This is what your soul truly seeks — the deeper purpose beneath your personality that only you (and those closest to you) can see.
Triple Cards (Birth Number 19): If your birth date reduces to 19, you have the rare triple combination — Sun (19) + Wheel of Fortune (10) + Magician (1). This is the most dynamic birth card set.
The Fool (Birth Number 22): If your sum reduces to 22, your personality card is The Fool (0/22) paired with The Emperor (4). This represents the paradox of absolute freedom and absolute structure.
A tarot birth card is a Major Arcana card calculated from your birthday using numerology. Your birth cards represent your permanent life archetype — they reveal your core personality, soul purpose, and life theme.
Add your birth month + day + full year. Reduce the sum by adding digits until you reach 22 or below. This gives your Personality Card. Reducing to a single digit gives your Soul Card.
No. Unlike tarot readings, your birth cards are permanent — calculated from your fixed birth date. They represent your lifelong archetype and never change. You may relate to them differently as you grow.
If your birth date reduces to a single digit (1–9), your personality and soul cards are the same. This means your inner and outer selves are unified in one powerful archetype — a concentrated, focused energy.
