OK...I have been seeing these words all over the place as they relate to specific people in tarot, but they are both not in the dictionary (book form or online) and I was looking for a definition of what each are so I can clear them in my mind.

Cartomant (is this the person that is doing the reading? is there more to this word)

Querient (is this the person getting the reading done? is there more to this word)

Thanks.

I think Cartomant refers to someone reading any type of card, not necessarily tarot.

[Cf. F. cartomancie. See Card, and -mancy.] The art of telling fortunes with cards.
