The ‘Querent’ is a Latin word for ‘The Seeker’ or ‘The one who seeks’. The one who questions an Oracle. The person who is questioning, and receiving the interpretation of the Tarot Cards is known as the Querent. Most people don’t realise that in a Tarot Card Reading it is not the Tarot nor the Tarot Card Reader who are central characters. It is only the Querent who holds all the power.
