Tarot Spreads

Introduction: The Phoenix Rising Tarot Spread is designed to help you navigate through periods of transformation, rebirth, and renewal. Just as the mythical phoenix rises from its ashes to begin anew, this spread aids in understanding the cyclical nature of life and how to embrace change and personal growth. Purpose: This spread is ideal for times of significant change, whether it's the end of a relationship, a career transition, personal transformation, or any situation where you feel like you need to rise from the ashes and start anew. Card Positions: The Ashes (What You’re Leaving Behind) The Spark (The Catalyst for Change) T…

I came across this spread on the Tarot in a Teacup blog and thought it looked really fascinating. This is actually why I'm currently looking for a copy of her book Tarot Wisdom! The spread is done in the shape of an inverted pentagram. Picture with spread positions attached. 1 3 6 4 5 2 1. What have I lost? 2. What blocks me from returning? 3. What illusory chains hold me? 4. What reality holds me? 5. How can I free myself? 6. What will happen?

The Queen of Swords could also be suggesting that you need to know what is the difference between the truth and what is complete BS! Another thing about this woman is that you shouldn't need to take any BS from ANYONE (clears throat) *sorry for the yelling :shhh:*. Strangely enough I don't see any water cups to represent you *Your a Scorpio woman!* Now while upon this topic since you have gotten the King of Wands as a gift. If your single *if not I apologise for making any assumptions* there may be a male who's either in his mid-40s to 50s who's either Aries, Leo or Sagittarius *probably Sagittarius as the session for them are almost here* will play a role within your…

These were created (by me) with the intention of following the cycle and the energies of the moon, but every spread can be used on its own - as a tool for personal exploration and development (and you can certainly also use them in readings for others). There is a theme for each spread, so I hope you’ll find something that suits your needs and wants! Enjoy!

I designed this spread with my dear friend Nelly. This is the spread that gives me the most leverage in a reading about conflict between two people. The readings and the dyads make it complex, but the leverage is incredible.

really like the idea of laying tarot cards on top of 'positional significance' cards to make on the fly custom spreads, as in the deck of 1000 spreads (now OOP and fetching silly prices). of course we can just write on blank cards to get the same or better utility : ) brainstorming ideas for cards, here what i have so far: self experiences expectations root feelings others environment resources action reaction result challenges allies present esteem fate disposition education pro con advice partner reward surprise answer danger relationship conscious desires unconscious desires attitude intentions fears decision intuition lesson potential risk success things overlooked…

This came from Shamans Market:

Aka: How To Dig A Hole Spread 1. Taken from the top of the deck Scratching the surface: What's on the surface. What you already know 2. From the middle Dig a little deeper: What you know but haven't or don't want to acknowledge 3. From the base Rock bottom: Shadow aspect. What you are unaware of

Today is my UberCoolNeighbors Birthday and I'd like to do a short 'n sweet reading for her this afternoon. I'm still learning so I'm not looking for complicated here. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

It's just about that time, so I wanted to share this in the Tarot Spreads subforum before starting the thread for the group reading! This is a spread inspired by the Sacred Days of Yule group reading let by BlueDragonfly[/member], first at AT and now here at TT&M. The original Sacred Days of Yule spread can be found here. This Sacred Days of Midsummer spread draws on inspiration from various cultures to help us embrace the sacredness of the season of summer. Together we walk the sacred path of days around the Summer Solstice. This spread is unique in that it is a total of 12 cards, with one card meant to be drawn each day for 12 days. I'll be hosting a group …

I've never tackled past-life reading with the tarot (although I've done a little prenatal epoch work with astrology and have conducted some spirit-world exploration with the tarot). This spread is largely deterministic in that it revolves around the discharge of karmic debt, something which New-Age-ism seems to shy away from. It gave me a very interesting self-reading. https://parsifalswheeldivination.com/2019/08/21/mirror-of-the-soul-karmic-message-spread/

I thought I'd share a couple of the spreads I originally posted at AT over here! :) This is a simple night spread, for reflection in the evening or before bed. I often find I want a very simple reading before bed, and created this spread with that in mind. **2** 1***4 **3** Card 1: Represents us as we reflect on this night. Can be thought of as a significator. Card 2: Something you did well today. Card 3: Something to work on tomorrow. Card 4: Something to release. I actually was inspired by a prayer from The New Zealand Prayer Book to create this spread- it’s a prayer that’s often used at the vespers service at my local Unitarian Universalist church…

Besides past, present and future, what types of 3 cards spread are available?

After reading this article (thanks CharlotteK :D ), I was struck with the inspiration for a new spread... Invite Your Shadow To Tea **********7(T) *****9(T)******8(T) 1(B)*****3(M)*****2(T) *****6(B)******5(B) **********4(B) 1. The Invited Shadow - this card can be self chosen or you can take from the base of the deck and let the cards decide. This card will tell you a bit about what you need to deal with. 2. The Querent - this card can also be self chosen or you can take from the top of the deck and let the cards decide. This card will show where you are right now. 3. The Lesson On The Table - what lesson does this shadow offer you? Take from the …

Anybody know of any spreads that are good to do on the New Moon of your astrological sign?

It's been another trip around the sun. Does anyone have a favorite birthday spread I could do tomorrow?

Joanna Colbert, creator of the Gaian Tarot and the Herbcrafter's Tarot, posted this spread on Instagram and I thought it was really lovely and wanted to share it. She mentions she was inspired to create this spread by an essay by Arundhati Roy. A Tarot Spread for the Pandemic Portal Time :: 1. What do I most need to know about this collective moment — this “portal”? :: :: 2. What can I do to contribute to the wholeness and health of the collective? :: :: 3. How can I strengthen my own resilience? :: :: 4. What am I not seeing? (Pull a card from the bottom of the deck.) :: :: 5. What does Spirit most want me to know about my personal path at…

As I continue to explore "mixed-media" spreads, I decided to tackle the I Ching in conjunction with Anthony Clark's I Ching Pack and the hexagram correspondences in the Thoth deck (as mentioned in Crowley's BoT commentary). I envision using this only for complex problem-solving situations. https://parsifalswheeldivination.com/2019/08/24/an-i-ching-tarot-problem-solving-spread/

Kelly-Ann Maddox recently shared these awesome three-card spreads on her Youtube-channel ( ). She has designed them herself and they are all centered around self-care. If you watch her video she will explain every position more in depth, but here is the short version: SPREAD POSITIONS: 1 2 3 Cords and Ties 1 – Which cords should be cut? 2 – Which ties should be bound? 3 – How to find the strength to make it so Life Influences 1 – Which childhood influences are having an effect? 2 – Which adolescent influences are having an effect? 3 – Which adult influences are having an effect? The Helper 1 – Whereabouts can you be of service effectively? …

I am looking for everyone's favorite spread to read for others (vs. ourselves) when it comes to relationships. They don't have to be about romantic love; family, workplace relationships and close friendships all count to. In particular, I'm looking for spreads of 3-8 cards with each positional noted. Here's a sample because I'm a shamefully picture driven creature.

This is a spread that I first saw on Youtube ( ). They guy in the video does an example reading if you want to know a bit more about how to perform this spread. (He also mentions that he first learned this spread from an Agatha Christie book - but won't mention which one it was. I believe he is referring to The Hollow, which is the only book of hers that I know contain a cartomancy spread, although it is not exactly the same as this one. However, back on topic.. ;D) You start by choosing a significator (this card is not counted as one of the ten cards), and you place it in the middle. Then you lay the rest out like this: 5 4…

Here is one of my more recent creations based on the ten-card tetractys spread that can be used in two ways: to get a straightforward "do it/don't do it/think about it" answer, read only the top six cards concluding in a three-card line; for the more philosophical "rest of the story," add the bottom four lines. I tend to be thorough in my approach to divination, so when reading the cards “on the clock” in a professional setting I often have insufficient time to address more than the high points of the scenario and answer a few parting questions. This is the “tip of the iceberg” effect that disappears when operating remotely (for which I prefer email) because in t…

I really enjoy doing time position spreads. Aka: "what is The forecast for my love life for next week" and draw 7 cards, 1 card for each day, or "what is waiting for me next month" and draw 4 cards, 1 card for each week.

Just wanted to share this spread I just came up with. Just did a reading and couldn't find a spread I liked so made my own. I feel like it worked out well! The path you are on The path you should take The path you should avoid Advice on how to stay on the right path How to avoid straying from the right path And a used an oracle at the end for a theme of the reading.
