What is Tarot?
Tarot is the 78-card open-pattern engine and the Western on-ramp for Celestial Nexus. A pull is a real cast; the calendar date does not become a card. The first reading the user sees is Tarot spoken in a horoscope register — day’s weather plus a pull — unless the job has no honest Western engine. After that card lands, exactly one other tradition that can do the same shape may be offered. Tarot is the on-ramp, not the collection.
What job does it do?
Ask, Today. Epistemic badge: reflective.
What is traditional, and what is our interpretive layer?
Traditional mechanic, tables, and named sources live in the vault file Celestial-Tarot.md. Interpretive voice — the 12 Inner Alignment Dimensions and the wording of advice — is Celestial Nexus. We do not flatten the two.
What is it not?
It is not a tropical Western natal wheel. It is not a fake cast from a date unless the engine is honestly computational. Harm-capable historic verdicts are documented, not performed.
