The "Answer to a question" technique
A simple, powerful way to hear your own answer. You phrase a question, pick a suitable deck and draw a card — a metaphoric image that highlights what you already know but find hard to see directly.
1
Phrase your
question
Clearly state what you want an answer to. The more precise the question, the clearer the hint from the cards.
2
Choose
a deck
Pick a deck that resonates with your situation. Each deck speaks its own language — from metaphors to symbols.
3
Draw
a card
Focus on your question and click the deck. A card is drawn at random — exactly the one you need right now.
4
Interpret
the answer
Examine the image, symbols and details. Think about how this card resonates with your situation and what step it suggests.

What do you see?
- What caught your eye first?

- What looks calm, and what looks tense?
- What story could you describe in one phrase?
What do you feel?
- What emotions does the card evoke?
- Is it pleasant, anxious or strange?
- Where in your body does the image resonate?
- Which feeling comes first, and which follows?
How does this relate to your situation?
- What does this resemble in your life?
- Where is this already happening?
- Which character or object is you, and which is not?
- What in the card reminds you of your story?
What small step can you take?
- What can you do in the next 24-48 hours?
- Where will you start so it feels easy?
- Who or what can help you?
