Can you ask Tarot about health? SHOULD you ask Tarot about health? Can Tarot predict health?

This week, one of my Tarot students asked a wonderful question: Can someone consult Tarot about health issues?

Like all things with Tarot, the answer is super nuanced!

For the record: there are NO off-limits Tarot questions.

You are free to ask the cards whatever you’d like!

That being said, I do urge caution when asking Tarot about health.

When I read Tarot for clients, I flat-out refuse to answer questions that need to be handled by a medical or mental health professional such as: “Do I have cancer?”; “Do I have bi-polar disorder?”; “Am I ‘borderline’?”, etc.

I am careful with how I answer questions about a health journey and either gently refuse or suggest a different question when I receive something like: “Will this treatment work?” “Should I take my doctor’s advice?” “How is my medication helping me?”

Some of the potential problems that may arise when asking Tarot about health include, but are not limited to:

  • A false diagnosis

  • The stoking of fear or anxiety

  • Giving false comfort or imparting unfair doubt

  • Offering a conflicting take on a medical professional’s advice

This doesn’t mean that Tarot ought not ask any questions related to health.

Tarot can be a wonderful support on a healing journey. Certain questions that can be helpful on this journey might include:

  • How can I best care for myself during this course of healing?

  • What might I have the opportunity to learn about myself while I seek healing?

  • Where can I find the best support for myself and/or my family while I undergo treatment?

  • What is a good point of focus for me on this healing journey?

A few more health questions to avoid and a few health questions to ask instead:

Instead of: “I have these symptoms…what illness might I have?”
Try pulling one card for the question: “How is my overall health: Body, mind, and spirit?”

Instead of: “Should I take my doctor’s advice?”
Try: “What is my best course of action to support my overall health and well-being?”

Instead of: “Is my illness terminal?”
Try: “What resources do I have to support me as I navigate this illness?”

If you are looking for a health-related spread, try this new one by yours truly!
