Cartomancy
Cartomancy interprets cards selected and arranged according to a consultation method.
How to approach it
Selecting a symbol and interpreting it are separate steps. Knowing the catalogue, positions and rules before a consultation helps clarify what the result actually offers.
An important distinction
It includes playing cards, tarot and different oracle decks. Their structures and meanings are not interchangeable.
An example to explore
A card in an «advice» position is read differently from the same card placed as a «difficulty».
Taking the idea further
To explore further, compare the related concepts and note differences in material, procedure and interpretation. If you open a related tool, read its own rules; sharing a symbol does not mean carrying out the same practice.
