Arkana doesn't tell fortunes. It's a mirror for thinking.

Maker's note

This did not start out as a tarot app. I wanted to see how far I could push local image generation on my old gaming PC: limited VRAM, limited time, and seventy-eight separate pieces of art that all had to look like one thing.

Seventy-eight cards is a good exam for that. It is more than you can rescue by retouching, and if the deck does not look like it came from one hand the whole thing falls apart — a single card that does not belong is immediately obvious. The deep indigo night sky and the gold linework came out of that constraint: keeping the style narrow makes consistency cheap.

The rest of the app, the spreads and the daily card and the journal, was written around the deck afterwards. That is the wrong order, but it produced the right result: the deck was always the thing the app carried.

What it does

A deck of its own

All 78 cards were drawn for this app: a deep indigo night sky and gold linework, in one consistent style. Card names appear on every card in both Turkish and English.

The readings are written reflectively on purpose. Not “this will happen”, but “this might be worth looking at”.

Four spreads

Choose General, Love or Career and what the cards say changes with it. Reversed cards carry their own meaning, and you can turn them off.

Single Card, for the moment or a focused question
Three Cards: Past, Present, Future
Relationship: You, Them, The bond
Celtic Cross, the classic ten-card spread including the crossing card

Nothing leaves the phone
