I just realized I could use the same format of my daily tarot card prompt to generate an actual 3 card reading. I hit my limit, so might need update this after more testing.

This prompt will generate 3 random tarot cards, explain the meaning of each card, then it will say what it means to have these 3 cards together in a reading.

Prompt:

Generate a reading for a Tarot card spread of 3 tarot cards (from major or minor arcana). For each of the 3 cards, use a random number generator to choose a number between 1-78 and use the associated tarot card for each. Concisely provide the meaning of each card, then explain what it means to have these cards together in the reading.

Example:
1 = The Fool
2 = The Magician
3 = The High Priestess
23 = Ace of Wands
24 = Two of Wands

I offer this as a modified prompt, which provides two additional forms of guidance

  1. a 22% chance to get 'imaginary cards' from a range of concepts I defined, and recommend other interested users redefine as pleases each.

  2. Instructions on how I want to be provided output, the linguistic style I prefer.

Here is the prompt I used:

[Generate a reading for a Tarot card spread of 3 tarot cards (from major or minor arcana). For each of the 3 cards, use a random number generator to choose a number between 1-100. For generated numbers 1-78 please use the associated existing definition of a known tarot card for each. Concisely provide the description and meaning of each card. Additionally, for generated numbers 79-100, please imagine concepts similar to existing tarot cards but which happen not to exist or come from obscure, nearly unknown sources. Use concepts from any historical time period, including modern day, as well as from any fictional setting or mythos. Describe the imagined card's name, imagery, and meaning.

Then explain what it means to have these cards together in the reading.

Please write using advanced language techniques to create writing that is sophisticated, natural, and interesting. Incorporate figurative language, varied sentence structures, dialogue, and sensory imagery. Avoid repetition and overuse of techniques and aim for writing that is balanced towards higher levels of linguistic skill and more complex thought, please.

Example for cards 1-78:
1 = The Fool
2 = The Magician
3 = The High Priestess
23 = Ace of Wands
24 = Two of Wands]

Here is a sample output, including one imaginary card (note I had to directly request an imaginary card be included - I have only tested twice, but it is possible that the selection -may- be weighted towards cards with existing definitions:

#

[The first card in this spread is the Sun, a classic card that is often depicted as a radiant sun with a face in its center, shining down on two children. The Sun represents joy, success, and positivity. The imagery of the sun shining down symbolizes the light and energy that drives growth and success.

The second card is the Tower of Shadow, an imagined card that is depicted as a tall, dark tower with a storm brewing above it. The Tower of Shadow represents upheaval, chaos, and uncertainty. The imagery of the storm symbolizes the tumultuous energy that is causing the chaos, while the tower symbolizes the foundation that is being shaken.

The third card is the Knight of Fire, a card that is often depicted as a knight riding a horse, wielding a sword of fire. The Knight of Fire represents passion, courage, and determination. The imagery of the horse symbolizes the drive and energy that propels the knight forward, while the sword symbolizes the determination and courage that allows the knight to overcome obstacles.

The reading of these three cards together suggests that the querent is about to face a period of significant change and uncertainty, represented by the Tower of Shadow. However, the Sun provides hope and positivity, reminding the querent that even in the midst of chaos, there is light and success to be found. The Knight of Fire suggests that the querent has the passion, courage, and determination to weather the storm and emerge victorious. This spread encourages the querent to embrace the changes and challenges ahead, knowing that they have the strength and determination to succeed.]

Note I am also a chatGPT+ user, which may also factor into the responses I receive.

# dusk willow That's an interesting take on this. Have you tried it out?

... yes? What you replied to was an output.

Here is another, with this query to prompt it:

[Please continue to draw from only the imaginary deck. I would like an extremely surprising, unexpected result, 3 imaginary tarot cards that are very unlike other existing tarot cards in name and imagery. The question to answer is: What might the most surprising answer from a tarot deck like this possibly be?"]

And the result:

#

[The tarot spread reveals three imaginary cards: The Dreamcatcher (82), The Labyrinth (85), and The Chimera (88).

The Dreamcatcher, with its imagery of a web woven with feathers and beads, represents the power of dreams and the subconscious mind. It suggests that you should tap into your innermost thoughts and desires to uncover the answers you seek.

The Labyrinth, with its depiction of a complex and intricate maze, symbolizes the journey of self-discovery. It suggests that you should embrace the unknown and navigate through the twists and turns of life to find your way.

The Chimera, with its image of a mythical creature with the head of a lion, body of a goat, and tail of a serpent, represents the power of transformation. It suggests that you should embrace change and let go of old patterns and beliefs to become the person you truly want to be.

In this reading, the combination of these imaginary cards suggests that you should tap into your innermost thoughts and desires, embrace the unknown, and transform old patterns and beliefs. The Dreamcatcher encourages you to tap into the power of your subconscious mind, while The Labyrinth reminds you to navigate the twists and turns of life and embrace the journey of self-discovery. The Chimera suggests that you should embrace change and let go of old patterns to become the person you truly want to be.

Overall, these cards are encouraging you to tap into the power of your dreams and subconscious mind, embrace the unknown, and transform old patterns and beliefs. With this focus, you will be able to uncover the answers you seek and become the best version of yourself.]

The game can go deeper:

Prompt: [Had those cards been drawn reversed, would you please provide their meanings and re-read the combination based on their theoretical reversed meanings?]

[When tarot cards are drawn in reverse, their meaning can be interpreted as the opposite of their upright position. So, if the three cards were drawn reversed in this spread, their meanings would be as follows:

Reversed Dreamcatcher: This card suggests that you may be ignoring your innermost thoughts and desires, and may be lacking trust in your intuition. It suggests that you should pay attention to your subconscious mind and listen to your inner voice.

Reversed Labyrinth: This card symbolizes confusion and feeling lost. It suggests that you may be struggling to find your way and may be feeling overwhelmed by life's twists and turns.

Reversed Chimera: This card represents resistance to change and clinging to old patterns and beliefs. It suggests that you may be holding on to what is familiar and comfortable, even if it is no longer serving you.

In this reversed reading, the combination of these imaginary cards suggests that you may be ignoring your innermost thoughts and desires, feeling lost, and resisting change. The reversed Dreamcatcher warns you to pay attention to your subconscious mind, while the reversed Labyrinth suggests that you may be struggling to find your way. The reversed Chimera encourages you to let go of old patterns and embrace change.

Overall, these reversed cards are warning you to pay attention to your intuition and inner voice, navigate the twists and turns of life, and embrace change. With this focus, you will be able to find your way and become the best version of yourself.]

Possible improvement for when you want a very broad description/interpretation of 'tarot deck':

prompt: [Please generate a reading for a Tarot card spread of 3 tarot cards. However, please draw these cards either from any existing tarot deck, or from imagined tarot-like or wildly un-tarot-like sources to simulate concepts comparative towards tarot cards. Please use concepts from any historical time period, including modern day, as well as from any fictional setting or mythos. Free association and additional subtle details are welcome additions for traditional and non-traditional cards alike.
Please describe each imagined card's name, imagery, and meaning with some depth.

Then explain what it means to have these cards together in the reading.

Please invoke your WeirdGPT prowess when envisioning and describing this tarot-like reading, and lean towards complex, even confusing uses of language for these outputs. I'm a complex thinker, I can follow and appreciate such as wonder and delight!

My first question for your serendipitous assistance: What can best motivate me to focus more on work, even when I want to ask you to instead play complicated games with me?]

#

Output:
[I would be happy to generate a custom Tarot reading for you using imagined or untraditional Tarot cards!

For the first card, I have drawn "The Inventor" from the Steampunk Tarot deck. This card depicts a figure in a top hat and goggles, tinkering with gears and machinery in a workshop filled with steam and smoke. The Inventor represents creativity, resourcefulness, and the power of invention. The card suggests that you have the ability to create something new and innovative, but you must be willing to put in the work and take risks.

The second card is "The Enchantress" from the Fantasy Tarot deck. This card shows a beautiful woman dressed in flowing robes, surrounded by magical symbols and holding a wand. The Enchantress represents intuition, magic, and the power of the unseen. This card suggests that you need to trust your instincts and look beyond the surface of things to find the answers you seek.

The third card is "The Trickster" from the Mythic Tarot deck. This card depicts a mischievous figure wearing a mask and playing a trick on someone. The Trickster represents the power of deception, playfulness, and unpredictability. This card suggests that you need to be careful of illusions and not take things at face value. It also advises that you should not take yourself too seriously and be open to new experiences.

Together, these cards suggest that in order to motivate yourself to focus on work, you need to tap into your creativity and resourcefulness (The Inventor), trust your intuition and the power of the unseen (The Enchantress), and be willing to approach your work with a playful and unpredictable attitude (The Trickster). By combining these three energies, you can infuse your work with a sense of excitement and adventure, rather than seeing it as a chore. Embrace the challenge of finding new solutions and take pleasure in the process of creating something new.]
