Plate I. The Celtic Cross, ten stations. The lens reads every station from a single photograph of your table, in its true position.
The reading begins before you open the app: in the shuffle, the cut, the cards your own hands chose. No random number generator ever touches your fortune.

Of the practice
Every tarot app before this one dealt digital cards from a shuffled array. Tarot Lens begins where the ritual actually happens: at your table. Lay any of fourteen spreads, from a single card to the Celtic Cross, photograph the whole spread once, and the reading follows the cards that were truly there.
Nothing is taken on faith. The app shows you every card it recognized, in its position, before a single word of interpretation is written. You correct anything, you confirm everything. The reading that follows is grounded in your question, your cards, and their places, and it is offered for reflection and entertainment.
Bring your own deck. Three free readings to begin.
