Reversed meaning

Traditions differ on reversed cards. A common reading: a reversed yes softens toward "not yet", while a reversed no tends to stand firm. For The Chariot, most readers treat the reversal as a signal to examine timing and intention before acting. Decide before drawing whether you count reversals at all.
