There's even a series of school lectures in the former running down the meaning of each card. What's also interesting is that at the start of [[VideoGame/Persona4 the 4th game]], Igor does a brief tarot reading drawing the Moon and the Tower card. He basically tells you of an impending catastrophe and if you want to find out what the hell is going on and why, you're always going to be one step behind on your search for the truth.

* When [[FanFic/UltimateSpiderWoman Mary Jane Watson]] visits her former enemy Tarot in prison, Tarot offers to give her a reading. Although reluctant at first, Mary Jane eventually agrees and Tarot performs a card reading for her. A variant occurs in that the results are not deadly but instead allude to Mary Jane's HiddenDepths, which comes as much of a surprise to Tarot as it does to Mary Jane herself.
* In a flashback in ''Fanfic/BlueSky'', the Oracle Turret gives a Tarot reading for Wheatley when he crosses her path unexpectedly. She dubs him TheFool, and predicts that he will "rise above us all." Her words more or less prompt Wheatley to instigate the events of ''VideoGame/{{Portal 2}}.''
