Career Tarot: Deep Reflection on Your Work Without Predictions or Advice

Career Tarot

Are you at a career crossroads? Feeling burnt out, considering a new offer, or searching for your true path? This page is for you.

Your Mirror, Not a Roadmap

Let's be honest: we do not practice fortune-telling. Career Tarot, as we see it, is not a tool for receiving predictions or direct instructions. It is a structured dialogue with yourself, where the Tarot cards act as a symbolic mirror. Our task is to help you ask the right, deep questions about work that will take you beyond your usual way of thinking. We believe that all the answers are already within you.

The High Priestess

A symbol of intuition, hidden knowledge, and the subconscious. In a career, it calls for listening to your inner voice, not just logic and facts. Perhaps some important information is not yet on the surface.

The archetype of creativity, abundance, nurturing, and growth. In a work context, this represents a fruitful period, launching and developing a project, or creating a comfortable and supportive work environment.

The Emperor

Symbolizes structure, authority, order, and leadership. In a career, it points to the need to take control of a situation, build a clear strategy, or demonstrate leadership qualities.

The Hierophant

A symbol of choice, partnership, and alignment of values. In work, this could be a significant choice between two offers, forming a key partnership, or checking if your work aligns with your core values.

The Chariot

The archetype of ambition, control, willpower, and moving forward. It speaks to the need to focus on a goal and, by overcoming contradictions, confidently advance toward success.

Strength

Symbolizes inner strength, courage, patience, and compassion. In a career, it's the ability to handle pressure and conflicts through gentle power rather than aggression.

Wheel of Fortune

A symbol of cycles, change, luck, and fateful turns. In a career, it indicates that the situation is changing. It's important to be flexible and ready for new opportunities or challenges.

Justice

The archetype of fairness, balance, responsibility, and consequences. In work, this can relate to signing contracts, objectively assessing a situation, and making balanced, honest decisions.

The Tower

A symbol of sudden and radical destruction of old structures. In a career, this could be a firing, a project failure, or a company's collapse. Though painful, this experience liberates from illusions.
