Netflix has turned streaming into prophecy, and we are here for it. And if you are still thinking metaphorically, allow us to change your views. For 2026, the platform has rolled out a Netflix Tarot experience that uses tarot symbolism to predict what “you’re likely to stream” next or at least what kind of stories your year might feel like.

And no, it isn’t some generic quiz with random genre suggestions. The Netflix Tarot is part of the broader “Discover Your Future” campaign, where Netflix fuses a bit of mysticism with its upcoming slate of movies and series. Instead of asking you what you think you want to watch, you are invited to clear your mind and let the cards speak for themselves. The result is a personalised reading built around three tarot cards, each one tied to a fortune and a Netflix title that “reflects that path”.

When you enter the experience, you’re first invited to choose between three distinct tarot decks. Each deck offers a different visual and symbolic feel. Now, depending on what you choose, it sets the tone for the journey ahead. Once a deck is selected, you are presented with three questions that guide what kind of future you are exploring. Things like career energy, relationships, or bold adventures. The tarot reading frames your answers in both narrative and symbolic terms and assigns each card a corresponding Netflix movie or series that shares thematic parallels with your predicted path.

For example, if your cards lean toward “adventure and risk”, you might find yourself matched with a story like ONE PIECE, where charting new waters and seeking freedom are core to the journey. If your cards lean toward “romance and emotional reinvention”, you might get something in the vein of Bridgerton.

Netflix’s team has gone a step further by embedding classic tarot symbolism into the experience. If you look closely while you are on the site, you’ll notice tiny Arcana symbols in the top right corner of each card. In case you are wondering, those are nods to real tarot traditions. In the top left corner, custom icons point to the Netflix titles attached to each card. Again, not a superficial visual gimmick; it’s a way Netflix ties centuries‑old storytelling frameworks to the modern content you watch.

And Netflix made sure this experience isn’t just a solo trip. Every reading comes with easy options to share your results on social media or compare your cards with friends and family. Fans can swap screenshots, discuss how eerily accurate their Netflix Tarot reading feels, or debate whose watchlist looks more like destiny.

Of course, this ties into the actual content Netflix has queued up for 2026. A strong encouragement at the end of the tarot experience invites you to add upcoming shows and movies to your queue. After all, it is about shaping your year through stories. Some popular returning titles like Virgin River or Queer Eye are specifically mentioned as Netflix’s recommendation for anyone who hasn’t already circled them as part of their 2026 plan.

The Netflix Tarot takes something as simple as “What should I watch next?” and turns it into an experience that feels personal and a little mystical.
