Suppose I asked a negative yes/no question, like whether a certain deception has been taking place, and received a positive card like six of wands, is it a yes?

What do you think/know?
Thanks!

Interesting.
6 of wands is a positive messenger.
Maybe this card is telling that the triumph of the certain deception is yours?

Maybe. That is an interesting interpretation, GeminiKarat!

But in that case it also implies there is a deception. I cannot triumph a deception unless it exists, right?

Yes, that was my initial thought on this answer-card.

Hi I don't agree with negative questions, unless you would be really happy to have a confirmation for something.

I would ask if there were honesty, instead of deception, at least with this question, I would always ask that.

Thank you, Randall
Ayelet, I think this card as answer shows that there was some deception indeed, not just by being a "no" card, but it shows things being hidden from view, obviously. I hope this is not very upsetting for you

Thank you LeeLoo. I am not very upset, it just confirms my suspicion.
