A little context
A Tarot Birth Card pair links your birth date to two Major Arcana archetypes. Think of them as prompts for noticing recurring strengths, tensions, and choices—not a fixed description of who you are.
We use the Tarot School method: add your month, day, the first two digits of your birth year, and the last two. The total is reduced into a Major Arcana pair.
Tarot has many living traditions. Some add every date digit separately, assign The Fool to 22, or resolve the 3 pair differently. This calculator follows one clearly stated method so you can see every step.
