Open
Two Cards (Metodo a Due) — the deck is searched two cards at a time; any two that share a value are set aside as a pair, read from that value and the two suits. This repeats for three rounds. If nothing matches, that is the answer — the cards are declining the question.
Open
Timeline — five cards — past, recent past, present, near future, future — drawn in that order and read left to right, tracing how a situation has moved and where it may be heading.
Open
Horseshoe (Ferro di Cavallo) — seven cards in an arc: past, present, immediate future, advice, helpers & hinderers, warnings, and the outcome. A broader read than the timeline.
Open
Yes / No (Sì o No) — three cards for a straight question. Even values answer Yes, odd answer No; the majority decides.
