App Description

Respect for the Past, Vision for the Future. Legacy of the Divine Tarot is arguably one of, if not THE most sophisticated Tarot app available. Incorporating the same digital artwork files used in the printing of the actual deck, as opposed to scans, this app provides multiple zoom options for extreme close up study of the each image. Each card is accompanied by its own unique animated video which provides for a better understanding, and is an ideal environment for meditation and study. This app does not claim to provide meanings, via a canned list of generic responses to your questions, a feature whose value we consider disingenuous to say the least. Instead we provide on the reverse of each card, the artist's description of each image to facilitate a better understanding and provides a flexible platform from which you are encouraged to provide your own interpretation.

The unique artwork used throughout provides a richly themed user friendly interface.

This app duplicates the reading process in an intuitive manner, you are not limited to selecting from a pre established list of spreads, with this app you simply drag cards onto the virtual table to create any spread configuration you wish. You can then add and edit your personal notes along with a screen capture of a reading. Save it to a personal journal within the app or e-mail to a client or friend.

The resolution and detail of the graphics makes this app also suitable for display on an iPad at the x2 viewing option.

The size of this app results from the high end graphics and volume of video content, all of which will positively contribute to your user experience, however the size also require some time to download. This will vary depending on you internet connection. So please be patient.

Please also note that this app is intended for entertainment purposes only.

FAQ

Q: How do I turn off card reversals?
A: Version 1.1 introduced a user preference that allows you to turn reversals off or on. Your choice. From the opening splash screen, press the "i" button and then "p" preferences button.

Q: How do I get to the card meanings from the reading table?
A: Version 2.0 will introduce this functionality. Instead of just opening a larger image of the card, the app will open the card browser (just like in the cards section of the app). This will let you zoom in, flip to read Ciro's notes about the card, and even brows to other cards. All while in the middle of your reading. Just tap the "return to reading" button to close the card browser.
