The art

One deck. A different world every day.

The 1909 tarot by Pamela Colman Smith, reimagined across thirteen visual themes. 286 hand-tuned cards.

Every card starts from the 1909 public domain art, restyled by hand for each theme.

Under the hood

How a reading comes together

“kind of a tired, quiet day”

The card is drawn

Your words narrow the deck to cards that could speak to today, and the draw decides which one comes.

The readings were written by hand

All twenty-two cards, upright and reversed, carry readings a person wrote ahead of time. The drawn card's words become today's reading.

The songs are found on Apple Music

From what you wrote, several searches run across the catalog, gathering only tracks that really exist and trimming them to fit the day.

Every song carries a reason

Each track gets a line on why it came today. Reasons that can't be backed up don't get shown.

The model doesn't make up the songs.Open the pipeline

It designs the search and picks from what comes back.

Ask a model for songs and it leans on the hits, or makes tracks up. So the code does the searching, and the model just judges and writes.

Search design

LLM

Breaks your words into search axes: artists, genres, energy.

Gather candidates

CODE

Searches Apple Music several ways at once and keeps only real tracks. If it's in the catalog it can show up; if a model dreamed it up, it can't.

One track per artist, leads and deep cuts balanced to taste.

6

Final pick

Chooses the songs that fit the card and the day, and writes why each one's there.

Good to know
Is there an Android app?

iOS only for now. Tarotune is built around Apple Music, so an Android version isn't on the near-term plan.

Is it really free?

Yes. No sign-up, no subscription. Playing and saving full tracks needs your own Apple Music, the way Apple set it up.

Is this fortune telling?

No. It's a reflection toy. The card is a lens on your day, and it doesn't claim to predict anything. The part we actually care about is the music.

Why Apple Music and not Spotify?

Because a playlist saves straight into your iPhone's music library, and Apple Music is what makes that possible. Spotify comes up a lot; it's on the list.

Get it

Your card is waiting.
