This thesis explores how Tarot readers in China give meanings to their practices between cards and clients in the digital space. I examine how these practitioners interpret their multifaceted responsibilities, encompassing both providing professional spiritual guidance and engaging in emotional healing for clients, all while navigating the challenges of earning a living as freelancers in an uncertain market. In a society that promotes science and criticizes superstition, Chinese Tarot readers employ social media as a means to present their expertise and attract clients, while contending with the complex regulations from online platforms. They have developed distinct epistemological viewpoints and industry standards to validate the authenticity and significance of their services, extending their role to providing emotional support and facilitating affective encounters for clients. The guideline of refraining from excessive interference with others’ karma encapsulates the strategies Tarot practitioners employ when interacting with clients. These diviners carefully transform between different roles to avoid moral condemnation, offer a secure and private space for clients as strangers devoid of social and moral pressures, while also requiring monetary compensation for their expended energy.
