Preparation for layouts
Fortune telling requires special preparation, otherwise the prediction will be inaccurate. Setting up for the process should take place in a quiet place where no one will disturb you, preferably late in the evening or early in the morning.
It is important to distract yourself from everyday problems and devote all your thoughts to fortune telling. Before the ceremony, it is recommended to remove unnecessary things from the room, cover the table with a tablecloth and light a candle. Please note that strict adherence to rituals when fortune telling at home is not necessary. The main thing is to focus on the question and find the answer.
- Shuffle the cards well, place them on the table and stir clockwise for a few minutes. Only the left hand is used for the layout. Collect the deck and shuffle it again.
- When telling fortunes for yourself, make a question or a wish. Cut the deck twice and distribute the cards into three piles in order, starting from the top.
- When telling fortunes with simple (playing) cards, you can use Tarot layouts, and vice versa.
When laying out, you can combine different techniques, this will not lead to a violation of mystical laws. Trying new methods will help you discover the technique that is most suitable for fortune telling.
How to set up a new deck
If you are using the deck for the first time, you will have to adjust the cards. There are complex methods of preparation involving real magic. They require patience and strict adherence to the conditions, while they pronounce a special spell that sets the deck up for predictions.
For example, a new deck is placed in a crystal vase, which is placed on the east side of the house. Candles are placed around the vase and a small spell is read, after which the cards cannot be touched for three days.
There are also simple ways that do not require skills in magic or knowledge of spells. A new, unplayed or homemade deck is taken and imbued with energy for three days. You can put it under your pillow or carry it in your pocket.
Fortune telling on simple playing cards for the near future
An affordable way to find out the future is. The standard playing deck is distinguished by the absence of the Major Arcana, so the wands are replaced by the suit of clubs, the swords are replaced by spades, the pentacles are replaced by diamonds, and the cups are replaced by hearts. For simple fortune telling, a full deck of 36 cards is used. Such layouts are among the simplest, so no preparation is required.
Fortune telling "Four suits"
Shuffle the deck thoroughly and say a question about the future in your mind. Draw any card. The answer is hidden behind the resulting suit.
- ♧ Clubs - there are no obstacles to achieving what you want.
- ♢ Diamonds - it can come true, but you have to try.
- ♡ Hearts - a wish made is not what a fortuneteller really needs.
- ♤ Spades - something will interfere with achieving your goal, and soon it will become clear that it is for the better.
Predictions based on the “Four Aces” in two versions
- Aces are laid out in a row, one is chosen for desire. The cards are shuffled and removed one at a time and placed under the Aces. If there are more than five suited cards under, your wish will come true.
- Guessing by wish. The deck is shuffled and removed with the left hand. 15 cards are counted three times, Aces are removed with each layout. If all the Aces go in three hands, your wish will come true.

To do this at home, you don’t need any special skills, and in order for the result to be as truthful as possible, you need to follow the following tips.
- Cards are always removed with the left hand towards you.
- It is advisable to make predictions for a short period of time, since fate is changeable and sometimes depends on the interventions of third parties.
- It is good to tell fortunes on the 13th and on Fridays; at the beginning of the week it is better to give up fortune telling, especially Monday is contraindicated. Love predictions come true at Christmas time.
- Before starting, the cards are held in their hands for several minutes and they tune in to the ritual.
- Questions must be sincere; deceit and ridicule will anger higher powers.
- They don’t tell fortunes more than once a week. Any ritual of divination requires maximum concentration.
- The powers of the fortuneteller and the cards should have time to recover.
- It is important to get rid of extraneous thoughts, turn off your phone so that nothing interferes.
- Cards are stored in a certain beautiful place - in a box or box.
- Avoid dependence on interpretations. Predictions guide action, but do not act as mandatory rules.
In what cases will fortune telling not come true?
Maps show the future taking into account the line on which a person is currently located. Changing one's fate at one's own request can cause an unfulfilled prediction.
For example, the cards show a girl that she will soon get married, and she changes jobs and begins rapid advancement up the career ladder. Now she is interested in successful work, she has already forgotten about marriage. Thus, the girl herself changed her life line, and what was predicted loses its meaning.
There are three important restrictions that must not be violated in order to obtain an accurate prediction.
- The deck must be new, unused in the game. You can buy it in a store or create it yourself. A prerequisite for reliable fortune telling is the absence of extraneous energy or its neutral form. To clean the cards from energy debris, they are held over a candle, sprinkled with holy water and sprinkled with salt on the back.
- The deck must not be touched by anyone other than its owner. This rule follows from the first. During fortune telling, energy plays a vital role. Cards love to be held in the hands of the owner and imbued with his emotions. You cannot use someone else's deck.
- You cannot use fortune telling cards for games, then the deck will be grateful and show true predictions.
The future has many options, the transition to another line can be imperceptible. We ourselves influence our lives, make decisions, make choices. The main thing is to believe in good predictions, then everything will come true. If the alignment is bad, it is better to treat it as a warning; it is not inevitable.
Fortune telling should be fun, because positive energy has a good effect on the ritual. Follow simple rules and everything will work out!

Gypsy fortune telling with playing cards has roots in the deep past. There are many different layouts, but all of them are considered reliable if you follow all the rules. Firstly, you need to remember that fortune telling cards do not like to rush. Therefore, the ritual should be carried out in a calm atmosphere, without haste. In addition, according to professional fortune tellers who use gypsy fortune telling with playing cards, you need to tune in to a special perception of the information provided, in other words, “enter a trance.” To do this, you need to practice as often as possible, which will strengthen your connection with the cards.
It is important to remember that it is not recommended to guess at yourself very often. There is a belief that this way you can “tell your destiny and repel luck.” Therefore, it is better to provide such a service to your loved ones and friends. If you are going to tell fortunes to another person, then his presence is not necessary; you can use his photograph.
If you really want to know your destiny, then you can use the ancient gypsy fortune-telling “Thirty-two cards”. It will allow you to look into the future and warn of dangers, as well as determine the main milestones on the way to your goals.
Preparing for the schedule
For this fortune telling, you must use a standard deck consisting of thirty-six cards. It is desirable that it be new and already “tamed”, that is, fortune telling has already been carried out on it. All sixes are first thrown out of it, as a result, a deck is obtained in which thirty-two cards remain. This is the gypsy deck of playing cards that was used by gypsy fortune tellers in ancient times.
As in any other fortune telling, you must first select a card that will symbolize the person for whom the fortune telling is being carried out.
In gypsy fortune-telling, it is not age that is taken into account, but the features of a person’s appearance, as follows:
- The queen of spades is suitable for a brunette, and the jack of spades characterizes a brunette.
- For the owner of dark brown hair, the queen of clubs is suitable, for a man with dark brown hair, the jack of clubs.
- For the owner of light brown hair, the queen of diamonds is suitable, for a man with light brown hair, the jack of diamonds.
- The queen of hearts is chosen for the blonde, and the jack of hearts for the blonde.
After choosing, the main card, which will represent the person for whom the fortune telling is being carried out, is placed again in the deck.
Fortune telling on cards, which the gypsy layout provides, must be carried out in the presence of the person being told fortunes. This is a prerequisite in order to obtain truthful information. At the beginning, the deck should be shuffled well. Then you need to ask the person for whom the fortune telling is being carried out to move the cards from the deck and then put them on the table in the form of two piles. Moreover, you need to move the cards in such a way that one of the piles is much larger. Next, the procedure of shifting the cards is repeated, but it is carried out only with a larger stack of cards. These actions are repeated until there are four stacks of cards in front of you.
Next, the cards are collected again into one deck in a certain sequence. First, the first pile is placed on the second, the resulting deck is placed on the third, and then all the cards are placed on the fourth pile. As a result of such actions, a deck of cards is formed that corresponds to the fate of the person for whom fortune telling is being carried out.
The deck ready for fortune telling should be taken in the left hand, and with the right hand the cards should be taken from the top of the deck one by one and laid out in rows of eight pieces face down, without disturbing the order of the cards in the deck. You need to start deciphering fortune telling from the main card, indicating the person on whom the fortune telling is being carried out. All cards that are located next to it are fateful, determining in a person’s life. The further a certain card is from a person, the less it can influence fate. Cards that are far from the main card can not be deciphered, since their influence on a person’s fate is minimal.
Fortune telling about kings is especially popular among women. It is noteworthy that in this way you can find out the feelings of four men towards themselves. For this fortune telling, a standard playing deck of cards consisting of 36 cards is used. First, four kings are selected from the deck. You need to pick up each card one by one and wish for a specific person on it. It is desirable that its appearance matches the selected card. After this, the kings should be mixed and placed face down in front of you.
Then the deck of cards without kings needs to be shuffled and the cards under the kings must be laid out in horizontal rows of four cards face down. If an ace falls out in the layout, then it must be placed on the king under which it fell out, and then continue the layout. If a 6 comes up in the deck, then it must also be placed on the king, but only if it is already covered by an ace. Similar actions are carried out with sevens, eights, etc.
After the end of the layout, the cards, with the exception of those on the kings, are collected again into the deck. The described manipulations are repeated four times.
The layout is deciphered as follows:
- The king on which the largest number of cards was collected as a result of the layout is the most suitable candidate for you.
- With those kings who have fewer cards, relationships are possible, but most likely they have no future.
- If you didn’t manage to collect a single card on the king, then he is absolutely not interested in you and it’s hardly worth wasting time trying to attract his attention to you.
Any gypsy fortune telling is simple, but it is very important to strictly follow the sequence of actions with the cards. Any inaccuracy in the layout will lead to unreliable information being received. It is important to conduct the fortune-telling ritual in absolute silence, focusing on the question that interests you.
No one can know their fate... But when you really want to, you can try, especially since the art of fortune telling on cards contains a huge number of different layouts that allow you to look into a person’s future, consider the dangers that await him, and determine the main milestones of his life path.
The best of these alignments are rightfully considered to be ancient fortune-telling techniques, practiced to this day by a rather narrow circle of specialists. This, in particular, is the ancient gypsy fortune telling on cards “Thirty-two cards”.
It is believed that it is one of the most vivid fortune-telling gypsies, with the help of which they accurately tell everything about a person - from his childhood to his last breath, predicting joys and sorrows, ups and downs. Of course, perhaps the very fact that this technique is practiced by this particular nation may arouse suspicion among many people, but we should not forget that the gypsies have become very skilled in sorcery over the years of wandering and wandering around the world.
And in Europe of the 19th century, this alignment was very popular, which clearly indicates in its favor. So, let's begin!

How to prepare for the schedule
To carry out this fortune telling, you will need a standard deck consisting of thirty-six playing cards. It is better if it is new, freshly purchased or already “tamed” by the one who will make the layout. All sixes should be selected from it, resulting in the desired deck of thirty-two cards. This is exactly what the gypsies used to guess in the old days.
As in every classic layout, the purpose of which is to clarify certain circumstances of a particular person’s life, in the “32 cards” fortune telling, first of all, you need to decide on the suit and value of the card that will symbolize the person you are telling fortunes about. And here, not the usual identification technique is used (choosing a card depending on the age and marital status of the individual), but the method of portrait resemblance, based on the characteristics of a person’s appearance.
For example:
- A brunette woman is designated as the queen of spades, a brunette man is designated as the jack of spades.
- A woman with dark brown hair is the queen of clubs, a dark brown man is the jack of clubs.
- A woman with light brown hair is the queen of diamonds, a light brown man is the jack of diamonds.
- The blonde woman will be represented as the queen of hearts, the blonde man will be the jack of hearts.
After selecting the main “client” card, it is put back into the deck, and now you can proceed directly to fortune telling.
As you can see, age and the presence of a family do not affect the choice of card in any way; probably, all these points will become clear during fortune telling. Another oddity of this layout: men are designated by jacks, not kings, as is usually the case.
How to lay out the cards correctly
First, you should shuffle the deck well, and then ask the person to whom the fortune is told (whose card was chosen as the main one) to remove most of it from the deck and put it on the table.
You have two stacks: one is smaller, the other is larger, now you need to repeat the procedure of removing most of the cards, but from the second stack.
When you have three groups of cards, you will need to remove some of them from the third pile one last time.
As a result, there will be four small piles of cards left on the table.
At the next stage, it is important to correctly collect all the cards taken by the one who is being told fortunes, together. To do this, you need to follow the following sequence: the first stack of playing cards is placed on the second, the resulting stack is placed on the third, and then all together is placed on top of the fourth stack.
As a result, we have a system of cards that fully corresponds to the karma and fate of the person for whom it is being read. Please note that the resulting order of cards must not be changed under any circumstances!
The hardest part is over, now all that remains is to lay out all the cards in our non-standard deck in the order in which they lie, and begin to interpret the fortune-telling.
The cards should be laid out in four rows of eight pieces each, while the deck should be held in the left hand, the cards should be removed from above, without disturbing the order.
When considering this fortune telling using playing cards, you should start with the “heart” of the layout - the main or client card. Everything that is located next to it is fundamentally important, fateful phenomena and events that determine the life of a given person.
The farther this or that card is from the main one, the less its significance for a person.
The most distant cards need not be read, since they are practically insignificant for the individual.
So, with an eye on this information, we begin the interpretation from the nearest cards, gradually moving away from the main one.
Interpretation of cards
First of all, it should be understood that in this layout all cards with images of people symbolize specific individuals and have no other meaning (as is the case in traditional layouts). Even moreover, cards of the same suit as the client himself represent his closest relatives: jacks and kings - men (father, brother, husband), queens - women (mother, sister, wife). Cards of the same color as the client’s suit are friends, colleagues and associates (the person’s inner circle), but cards of the opposite color are strangers, who, however, may have some influence on this person. But if a jack and a queen appear side by side in a layout, then they symbolize a married couple.
The interpretation of the remaining cards should be found in this list:
Ace of hearts - peace, tranquility and grace in the family
Ten of hearts - the interest of one person in another, which can result in a long-term relationship, friendship, love
Nine of hearts - surprise, unexpected gift
Eight of hearts - unexpected news (in order to determine the nature and content of the news, you need to look at the nearest cards)
Seven of hearts - restoration of relationships that were once destroyed, renewal of friendship or love 
Ace of clubs - pleasant gifts, news or deeds (next to a card indicating a person - someone is trying to gain attention or favor)
Ten of clubs - everything is going well, but you need to try not to miss your “finest hour”
Nine of clubs - circumstances quite favorable to the plan
Eight of clubs - luck, extraordinary luck
Seven of Clubs - a money card, financial well-being, under any circumstances 
Ace of diamonds - favorable news from distant lands
Ten of diamonds - meeting with loved ones (the outcome of the meeting should be looked at on the cards closest to this one)
Nine of diamonds - sudden difficulties, troubles
Eight of diamonds – illness, poor health, sadness
Seven of diamonds - the next trip will bring dramatic changes 
Ace of spades - bad news that should be accepted firmly, otherwise it could be even worse
Ten of spades - destruction of illusions, collapse of all plans and dreams
Nine of Spades – useless troubles, anger, frustration
Eight of Spades – negative events leading to irreparable consequences
Seven of Spades - try to look for what you want where you would never even think of looking for it, all other options will be in vain 
Note! When interpreting this layout, it is also important to note the relative position of the cards, since they can complement and explain each other’s meanings.
This fortune telling is considered one of the most reliable that exists today. No wonder it is called gypsy and is in demand among professional fortune tellers. The layout is time-tested and rarely fails. However, if you have such an opportunity, you can once again confirm the forecast of the future obtained on the basis of such divination by using alternative options, such as fortune telling with Tarot cards. In addition, it is believed that Taro was also brought to European countries from the east thanks to nomadic gypsy tribes.
It is generally accepted that for fortune telling you need to use special cards, and playing cards cannot tell the whole truth. But this is a myth - there are proven methods of fortune telling with playing cards that are in no way inferior to classical methods. Let's talk about the most popular layouts and meanings of playing cards.
There are certain rules that must be followed if you decide to tell fortunes with playing cards. Here they are:
- You must have one, your own deck - only its owner can guess on playing cards: other people’s cards will “deceive”
- Before the fortune telling session, you need to concentrate and clearly imagine your goal - what exactly you want to know. A correctly formulated question is the key to success
- You need to trust that the cards will tell the truth. Skeptics and non-believers in the power of fortune telling should stop trying to tell fortunes.
It's simple - get ready, prepare your deck, clearly decide what you need to ask, and go ahead!
What the cards say: meaning
After you receive the layout, you will need to decipher it. Here's what each card means:
- Six - portends an important meeting or romantic date
- Seven - promises luck and extraordinary success in all endeavors
- Eight - falls to difficulties, troubles, problems and difficulties
- Nine is the image of a rival, a competitor, a woman who has a negative attitude towards you: she is jealous or wishes harm
- Ten - a situation will arise in the fortuneteller’s life in which he will have to make an important choice that will affect the course of his future life
- Valet - a familiar young man from your circle
- Lady - a girl from the fortuneteller’s close circle: relative, beloved woman, friend
- The king is a man from the fortuneteller’s inner circle: lover, husband, friend, brother, father
- Ace is the personification of love, and mutual: you won’t have to suffer from unrequited feelings
The suit of the card also matters:
- Hearts mean mutual feelings of a romantic nature: infatuation, love, strong sympathy
- Diamond cards foretell important news in the life of a fortuneteller. Moreover, the news will be pleasant and bring a lot of joy
- Club (cross) cards - personify the material side of a fortuneteller’s life, can tell about financial affairs, attitude towards money
- Spades cards are always for something negative - problems, difficulties, conflicts and troubles
Free fortune telling for the future
Pick up a deck of playing cards and clearly formulate a question whose answer interests you. It is important that the question is closed, that is, it can only be answered “Yes” or “No.”
For example: “Will the young man (name) ask me out on a date?” Or: “Will I get money for the business I have in mind?”
Draw one of the cards at random. If the card comes up in the heart suit, the answer is yes. Peak - negative. Diamonds indicate that you can get a positive answer, but you will have to work hard. Clubs warn: you are thinking about the wrong thing, switch your attention to more important matters.
Fortune telling using one card
Also a very simple version of fortune telling. Do everything as in the previous case, but you can ask an open question - then the card that comes out will tell you what to pay attention to and what awaits you.
For example, you asked: “What awaits me tomorrow” and the jack of spades came up. This means that the next day promises a meeting with a young man from your environment who is negatively disposed towards you (see the meanings of the cards that we described in the first section).
Fortune telling for love
This version of fortune telling is suitable for those who want to find out what awaits them in their personal life. How to guess:
Shuffle the cards thoroughly. Select a card in advance that will represent the person you are interested in. For example, if your chosen one is a dark-haired older man, he will be the king of spades. If it's a young blonde girl - the queen of hearts
Take this card out and place it in the center of the table. Divide the remaining deck at random into 9 parts and place the top card face up:
- Three stacks are above the central card. This is what happened in the past in your relationship
- Three piles are under the central card. This is what awaits you and your other half in the future
- The remaining three piles are your current relationships

Fortune telling with playing cards for the future
Before starting fortune telling, you need to remove all sixes from the deck. Then you must wish for any card that comes to mind first.
- Shuffle the deck thoroughly and divide it into two equal piles
- Choose one of the piles to which your heart lies most
- Set one card from the pile aside and divide the remaining cards into three equal piles.
As a result, you will have four stacks of cards:
What is in the first is the personification of the person who is being told fortunes. His desires, aspirations, goals. The second pile is family life, predicts events that will take place in the house. The third contains cards that will indicate in which direction you need to move. And the fourth is unexpected events that will happen in the very near future.
How to check cards before fortune telling?
To be sure that the cards will tell the truth, they need to be checked before fortune telling. To do this, shuffle the deck, close your eyes and mentally transfer your energy to the cards. Then ask the question: “Will you tell the truth or a lie?” and take out any card. If it is red, you can guess. If it is black, it is better to postpone fortune telling until a more opportune moment.
