Get tarot card by id - Tarot card meaning API

GET /api/v2/tarot/cards/{id}

Retrieve comprehensive details for a specific tarot card from the traditional Rider-Waite-Smith deck including complete upright meanings (card drawn normally) and reversed meanings (inverted/upside down interpretations for nuanced guidance). Each card provides keywords for quick reference, full interpretations (400+ words each for upright and reversed orientations), and guidance across life domains: love and relationships, career and professional growth, finances and material success, health and wellbeing, spirituality and personal development. Major Arcana cards (0-21) reveal deep spiritual lessons and life-changing themes. Minor Arcana cards (Ace through King in Cups, Wands, Swords, Pentacles) address practical daily situations and specific challenges. Use card ID in kebab-case format: Major Arcana like "fool", "magician", "death", "tower", or Minor Arcana like "ace-of-cups", "seven-of-wands", "queen-of-swords", "king-of-pentacles". Major Arcana IDs carry no leading article, though one is accepted, so "the-star" and "star" both return The Star. Essential for detailed tarot study, reading interpretations, divination apps, fortune-telling platforms, spiritual guidance tools, and professional tarot learning applications.

The canonical form, and the one every response echoes, is kebab-case with no article.
`lang` query	string enum	Response language (BCP 47). Supported: en, tr, de, es, hi, pt, fr, ru, zh-Hans, zh-Hant. Defaults to en. Coverage varies by domain, and a field with no translation in the requested language returns English. Default `en`.

Draw tarot cards - Seeded tarot draw API

POST /api/v2/tarot/draw

Draw 1-78 tarot cards from the complete Rider-Waite-Smith deck with seeded reproducibility for consistent personalized readings. Provide an optional seed string (like "user123-2025-12-27" or "readingId") to ensure the same seed always returns identical cards in the exact same order, which is essential for daily tarot features, personalized user experiences, shareable readings, or reproducible testing. Omit seed for true random draws each time. Control card reversals (upright vs reversed or inverted orientations, where reversed cards provide alternative meanings when drawn upside down) and duplicates (traditional deck draws each of 78 cards once, or oracle-style allows repeating same card). Each drawn card includes position number, reversal state (boolean), keywords for quick interpretation, full meaning text (400+ words), authentic Rider-Waite imagery, and card metadata. Perfect for custom spread builders, random card generators, automated tarot reading platforms, daily card features, meditation apps, journaling prompts, divination tools, and any application requiring reproducible or random tarot draws from the industry-standard 78-card deck (22 Major Arcana spiritual lessons + 56 Minor Arcana practical guidance across 4 suits).

Yes or no answer - Yes no tarot reading API

POST /api/v2/tarot/yes-no

Ask a specific question and receive a yes, no, or maybe answer based on a single tarot card draw. Upright cards indicate "Yes" with positive energy, reversed cards indicate "No" with caution, and certain inherently ambiguous cards (The Hanged Man, Wheel of Fortune, Temperance, Two of Swords, Four of Swords) return "Maybe" regardless of orientation since their energy signals pause, reflection, or shifting circumstances. Major Arcana cards give strong definitive answers, Minor Arcana cards give qualified nuanced answers. Returns the answer, strength level, drawn card details, and a contextual interpretation explaining why. Perfect for decision-making apps, quick guidance tools, fortune-telling chatbots, and interactive tarot experiences. Optionally provide a seed for reproducible answers.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
`lang` query	string enum	Response language (BCP 47). Supported: en, tr, de, es, hi, pt, fr, ru, zh-Hans, zh-Hant. Defaults to en. Coverage varies by domain, and a field with no translation in the requested language returns English. Default `en`.

Request body

Field	Type	Description
`question`	string	Your specific yes/no question. Be clear and focused. Good: "Should I move to a new city?" Bad: "What should I do about my life?" The more specific the question, the more useful the tarot guidance.
`seed`	string	Optional seed for reproducible results. Same seed + same question = same answer. Useful for testing, sharing readings, or ensuring consistency. Omit for random draws each time.

Maybe = inherently ambiguous card drawn (The Hanged Man, Wheel of Fortune, Temperance, Two of Swords, Four of Swords) signaling pause, reflection, or shifting circumstances.

Qualified = Minor Arcana card drawn (nuanced, situational guidance). Always English, whatever the lang parameter says. Use strengthLocalized for anything a reader sees.
`strengthLocalized`	string	Answer strength in the requested language, for display only.

Build and perform your own custom tarot spread with personalized positions and interpretations (1-10 cards). This flexible endpoint lets you create unique spread layouts for any purpose: define your own position names, meanings, and card count to match your specific needs or therapeutic framework. Perfect for therapists using tarot in counseling, coaches creating signature spreads, app developers building custom reading features, spiritual practitioners with proprietary methods, or anyone wanting to design specialized layouts beyond traditional spreads. Create spreads for specific themes like chakra readings (7 cards), lunar phases (8 cards), elements (4 cards), goals setting (any count), shadow work, inner child healing, decision matrices, or creative problem-solving. Each position requires a name and interpretation, so you define what each card position represents in your reading. The API draws the exact number of cards you specify and maps them to your custom positions. No pre-generated summary is provided, so you interpret the reading based on your framework. Ideal for innovative tarot apps, therapeutic tools, personal development platforms, spiritual coaching services, or experimental divination methods. Maximum 10 positions to maintain reading clarity and practical interpretation time.
