A full reading built from your own details, in two clearly separated layers. The ten-card Celtic Cross is seeded on your name, date, focus and question, which means it is reproducible - close the page, come back, and the same ten cards are in the same positions. That is the only claim made for it: reproducible is not the same as fated. Alongside it sit three cards that are not shuffled at all but calculated from your birth date, and those are the part with the weakest provenance - no public-domain tarot handbook contains the method, so they are labelled as unsourced and their arithmetic is printed beside them for you to check. Everything is computed in your browser.
The report is one page in two clearly separated layers: a shuffled ten-card Celtic Cross, and three cards that are not shuffled at all but calculated from your birth date. The shuffled layer is seeded, which means the same inputs always produce the same ten cards in the same positions. The calculated layer is marked as unsourced, because no public-domain tarot handbook contains the method. Everything runs in your browser and nothing is uploaded.
Your question is part of the seed. Change one letter and all ten cards change. This is said plainly on the report because a user who does not know it will re-word the question until the cards agree with them, and then believe the deck agreed.
The honest way to use a seeded reading is to write the question once, read what comes, and leave it. If you want a genuinely fresh draw, the free Celtic Cross page shuffles randomly every time and tells you so.
The Birth Arcanum is a trump derived from your date of birth: the digits of the date are added and reduced until the result falls in the range of the trumps, 0 to 21. A total of 22 lands on the Fool, because Papus keeps the Fool outside the numbered twenty-one. The Arcanum for the current year is produced the same way from your Personal Year, so it changes on each birthday. The third card is a significator taken from your tropical sun sign, standing in for Waite's own rule, which this app refuses.
All three ship labelled as unsourced, with the sum printed beside them so you can check it. Waite (1911), Mathers (1888), Papus (1889) and Case (1920) were searched and none of the four contains the method - the arithmetic is numerology borrowed into a tarot page. Labelling that honestly is the point: the ten shuffled cards carry citations to a named book, and these three carry a statement that no book was found.
No. The whole report is pure computation in your browser - the deck, the seed, the spread and the arithmetic all run locally. Nothing is uploaded and nothing is stored on a server.
It is a trump derived from your date of birth by adding the digits and reducing. It is not traditional: Waite (1911), Mathers (1888), Papus (1889) and Case (1920) were all searched and none contains the method. It ships marked as unsourced, with the sum printed so you can check it, because labelling it honestly is better than either hiding it or dressing it as tradition.
Because the significator substitution is a tarot correspondence, and tarot correspondence tables mean the tropical sign. It is not the sidereal rāśi used elsewhere on AstroZivi - the two differ by about three weeks of dates - and the report says which one it used rather than blurring them.
The spread is identical - the same ten positions and the same 78-card deck. The difference is the shuffle. The free page draws randomly, so every press gives different cards. The report is seeded on your name, date of birth, focus and question, so the same inputs always give the same ten cards; change one letter of the question and all ten change. The report also adds three cards calculated from your birth date, which the free page does not have.
