Can Tarot cards predict whether we will get married?

Of course, let's talk about this! I've been reading Tarot for quite a while, and this is one of the most frequently asked questions.

The direct answer is: Tarot cards are not suitable for giving you a simple "yes" or "no" answer.

Think of it as a very wise friend or a GPS navigator, rather than a crystal ball that can predict the future.

If you ask a GPS, "Will I eventually reach Beijing?" it can't directly answer "yes" or "no." But if you input your destination, it will tell you: "Following this route, you are expected to arrive in 3 hours. However, there's traffic ahead, you might consider an alternative route, which could be faster."

Tarot cards work similarly. They cannot tell you a definitive "endpoint," because the future is shaped by every choice you and your partner make right now. If today the cards suggest you might get married, but tomorrow you have a big fight and break up, then the outcome naturally changes.

Therefore, we generally don't ask closed-ended questions like "Will we get married?"

Instead, we can rephrase our questions to get more useful advice from the Tarot, such as:

• "What is the current state of our relationship? What are its strengths and potential issues?"
• "What are the factors hindering us from moving towards marriage?"
• "What can I do to help our relationship progress further?"
• "If we continue developing as we are now, what is the most likely outcome?"

You see, by asking this way, Tarot cards can provide a lot of information. They might tell you that your emotional foundation is strong, but one partner might have a fear of commitment (e.g., represented by the Three of Swords or The Tower); or they might suggest that both of you are willing, but need more practical communication (e.g., represented by Pentacles cards).

To summarize:

Don't use Tarot cards for "fortune-telling"; treat them as a tool to help you "analyze the current situation and offer advice." They cannot decide your future for you, but they can help you see the path ahead more clearly, letting you know which direction you can work towards to create the future you desire.

So, they can't directly tell you "will you get married," but they can tell you the "condition of your marriage path" right now, and how to make it smoother.

This is a great question, and one that many people new to Tarot often ask.

In short, my view is: Tarot cannot give you a 100% "yes" or "no" definitive answer, but it can very clearly tell you whether your relationship "has the potential" to lead to marriage, and what you need to do or what pitfalls to avoid if you want to get married.

Let me explain with a real-life example; it might be easier to understand:

You can think of Tarot as a powerful "relationship navigator" or "weather forecast."

• It's not a destination sign: It won't directly display: "Congratulations! You will be married on October 1, 2025." Because the future is not a fixed point; it's shaped by every choice we make now.

• It's more like a weather forecast: It tells you: "Based on current air currents, humidity, and wind direction, there's a 90% chance of rain in the next three days." Tarot works similarly; it analyzes your current states, thoughts, subconscious minds, and environmental influences, then tells you: "Based on the current situation, the likelihood of you heading towards marriage is very high/relatively low/there are some obstacles." After hearing the weather forecast, you can choose to take an umbrella or simply stay home. Similarly, after seeing Tarot's "forecast," you can choose to work on improving the relationship or consider if this relationship is truly right for you.

So, what specific information can Tarot tell you about marriage?

1. Current Energy State: It can reveal whether your current relationship is harmonious and passionate, or if issues like poor communication or trust crises have emerged. This is the foundation for determining if you can move towards marriage.
2. True Intentions of Both Parties: Sometimes we can't guess if the other person truly wants to get married. Tarot can help you see their deep-seated attitude towards marriage and their genuine thoughts about marrying you. Of course, it can also reveal your own.
3. Future Possibilities and Obstacles: The spread can clearly show what the most likely outcome will be if things continue as they are. If the outcome is positive (e.g., cards like "Ten of Cups," "Ten of Pentacles," "The Hierophant," which symbolize stability and family appear), it will tell you where your strengths lie. If the outcome is less optimistic, it will specifically point out the problems, such as family opposition, one partner's fear of commitment, or realistic financial pressures.
4. An "Action Guide": This is where I find Tarot most valuable. It's not just about prediction; it's about giving you advice. It will tell you whether you should work harder on communication, give your partner more space, or resolve certain practical issues if you truly want to marry this person.

To summarize:

Don't treat Tarot as a crystal ball that sees the future; that will make you lose your agency. Instead, see it as a wise friend or guide.

So, when you want to ask, "Will we get married?", it's better to rephrase it as: "What is the current state of our relationship? What is hindering us from moving towards marriage? What can I do to help our relationship progress towards marriage?"

This way, Tarot won't give you an answer that causes anxiety or false hope, but rather an insightful "relationship map" and "action manual" that can truly help you and your partner. Ultimately, the steering wheel remains in your hands.
