Liminal Tarot is a private tarot journal for reflection, daily practice, and the questions that keep returning. It is not built to predict your future. It is built to help you look at what is already here. Draw a daily card, ask a focused question, read with a digital deck or your own physical cards, and keep the readings that matter. Over time, Chapters gather related readings around a period of your life — a career shift, a relationship question, a decision, a season of change — so the thread does not get lost. What's inside: - A daily card and a place to leave a reflection - Readings in a grounded, non-predictive voice - Digital deck or your own physical deck, position by position - A private history of everything you've drawn - Chapters to group readings around what you're working through - Notes at the card, reading, and chapter level Pro membership unlocks the full practice: - Unlimited readings and full history - Chapter synthesis — patterns surfaced across readings, weighted by your own notes - Daily prompts and longer reflections - Practice Depth — visual progression as you keep showing up Liminal Tarot is for adults who use tarot as structured self-reflection. The cards do not decide for you. They give your attention a shape. Your readings and notes are private to your account. Account deletion is available in the app under YOU tab → Delete Account. Liminal Tarot is not medical, legal, financial, or mental health advice. If you are in crisis, please contact a local emergency service or crisis line.
