Common Yes/No Tarot Questions

Understanding specific cards and how yes/no readings work

Is King of Swords a yes or no?

King of Swords is typically a YES. This card represents intellectual authority, clear thinking, and fair judgment. When it appears in a yes/no reading, it suggests that a logical, well-reasoned approach will lead to a positive outcome. Trust your analytical mind and make decisions based on facts rather than emotions.

Is Ace of Wands a yes or no?

Ace of Wands is a strong YES. This card symbolizes new beginnings, inspiration, and creative energy. It indicates that now is the perfect time to start something new or pursue your passions. The universe is offering you a spark of opportunity - take action with confidence.

Is Nine of Swords a yes or no?

Nine of Swords is typically a NO. This card represents anxiety, worry, and mental anguish. However, it often indicates that your fears are worse than reality. While the answer leans no, consider whether your concerns are based on facts or just worry. The blockage may be mental rather than actual.

How accurate is yes or no tarot?

Yes or no tarot accuracy depends on question clarity and interpretation quality. Studies show 70-80% of users find their readings resonate with their situation. For best accuracy: ask specific questions, focus on one issue at a time, and consider the card meanings in context of your specific situation.

What if I get a maybe card?

Maybe cards (like The Moon, Wheel of Fortune, or Two of Swords) indicate the outcome is not fixed. The situation may depend on: decisions you haven't made yet, information you don't have, or actions of others. Consider asking a follow-up question or waiting for more clarity before proceeding.

Should reversed cards change the yes/no meaning?

Many readers flip the meaning with reversals (yes becomes no, no becomes yes). Others interpret reversals as "weak" versions of the upright meaning. Our recommendation: for simple yes/no readings, a reversed yes card becomes "maybe" rather than a hard no, as the energy is present but blocked.
