Tarot Spreads

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…

My wonder/wander -ings have led me to concepts about the degrees of the zodiac in astrology and the various degree symbol sets. That brought us online articles about the Galactic Center being at 27? Sagittarius, so I am hoping to find a spread that would complement these themes. https://consciousreminder.com/2020/11/30/december-astrology-by-dates-ready-for-a-power-packed-end-of-the-year/ http://astrologyclub.org/the-galactic-center-in-your-astrology-chart-by-house/

This is a simple spread I created, the Goddess Wisdom spread. The cards are laid out linear, 1-2-3-4. Card 1: Intuition. What is your intuition telling you right now? Card 2: Nurturance. What is nurturing you right now, or what in your life needs to be nurtured? Card 3: Universe. How are the energies of the universe aligning around you now? Card 4: Goddess Wisdom. What wisdom from the Goddess guides you now? In working with this spread, I sometimes also choose a Significator or guide card, which I lay out above the row of four cards, to represent what I feel is my current energy or what I am seeking. I like to use my Goddess Tarot (the Kris Waldherr deck) …

This spread is designed to help us to get in touch with our true heart’s desires. This is Card No. 6 — the Outcome card. Sometimes it is an extension of what we think we want — Card No. 1. Sometimes it is something a little different. Our interactions with others and the world (Cards No. 2 and 3) and our actions out in the world (Cards No. 4 and 5) can help reveal one of our heart’s desires. Special Thanks to @Misterei for the inspiration to develop this spread.

Hi, I am really stressed at my current job. Management changes in past 6 months have lead to it becoming more unstable and toxic by the minute. I applied/interviewed for another job and awaiting interview results (very anxiously to say the least). Is there a small career/finances related Spread (smaller the better) anyone recommends? I only read for myself and look for guidance from cards. Obviously, interview is already done and I could simply wait for the results in next week or so which (waiting without feeling on the edge/anxious) is really hard to do 😄 Thanks! ❤️

Is there any sort of spread or reading you would perform on a full moon?

I thought it could be fun to do a Spreadapalooza thread. The idea is to start with a theme, topic, question etc, and everyone shares a spread, their favorite spread on that theme. Sound like fun? If this one's a hit we can do more :) So to start: what's your go-to spread for a daily reading?

Hi guys, happy to be in this forum. I wanted to share a spread I tried from the shadowscapes tarot book. It could be used for a new job, friendship... The combination of cards was really interesting, let me know what you think. *****5***** 3*********4 ***1***2*** 1. READY: This card represents a way in which you are ready for love to come into your life. 2. OR NOT: This card shows a way that you are not ready for love. To draw love into your life, consider this card carefully. 3. DO IT: Turn to this card for advice on a step you can take to put yourself in the path of love. 4. STOP IT: Consider this card as a warning about something you actively do …

I tend to enjoy spreads that connect with the mind, body, and soul, and this one also throws in the past, present, future spread as well! I found it online, the credit tag is on the photo.

For the New Moon, here's a tarot spread I made a while back to read under the darkness!

I've never much liked the one-card daily draw because it implies that a single type of activity will prevail for an entire 24-hour period. For me, it fails to portray the opportunity for "change-over-time" unless we "intuit" it from the card's inherent nature. I've been seeking a model that can show shifts in the querent's "energy pattern" that may occur over the span of a day. Here is a link to my latest effort: https://parsifalswheeldivination.com/2020/03/05/the-diurnal-footprint-daily-draw-spread/

Jumping in on the spreads for Imbolc! Here is a lovely spread by Christine Jette, from her book Tarot for All Seasons. Brid is another form of the name Brighid, the powerful Celtic goddess, also known as the Catholic saint depending on your path. I feel this spread can also be used throughout the year, especially if you have a devotion to Brighid. From the book: February can be the harshest winter month, yet just beneath the snow, new life grows. Celebrate growth and new beginnings. Use the Brid's Wheel spread to make plans, gain strength, heal, and attain creative inspiration. Weave together your heart's desire on the last snowflake of winter, and await the prom…

I came across the following Everyday Spreads in a book entitled The Tarot Bible by Sarah Barlett. (Bartlett, Sarah. The Tarot Bible: the Definitive Guide to the Cards and Spreads. Sterling, 2006). Thought I would post them here, under the fair usage clause. (They're big so we can read them properly). Might be fun to try. :)

The Buck Moon July 23, 2021, Friday The cards are placed sort of like the antlers of a buck. Deer are and have been hunted for their meat, buckskin clothing, and their antlers have been used in the making of knives. They are graceful and even a little spooky when you get close to them. They know how to fend for themselves. Here is a spread inspired by the majestic deer and the Buck Moon. I hope this spread works well for you all! Enjoy! --5-- --6-- --3-- --4-- --1-- --2-- 1&2. What sustains you? 3&4. What shelters/protects you? 5. How have you carved a life out for yourself? 6. How …

Does anyone know if anything is wrong with Ethony? Like previous years, I requested the free Tarot by the Moon book this year (although a bit late). I unsubscribed from her newsletter last year, because aaaalllll the newsletters - not just hers - tend to get a bit much. But I didn't receive a confirmation email, no email with link to download, etc. Tried with another email address; still nothing. (Checked my spam folders too, of course 😉 ) I've tried using the form on her website to contact her, asked if she could help; this was about a week ago, and still no reply. Did anyone here manage to download this year…

Whenever I'm afraid, I feel intimidated and paralyzed; I can't even take one step forward. So I created this spread to help me understand and break free of my fears. I hope it helps you too. ----------6 --------5-- ------4---- …

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

Greetings, I understand this type of reading and tarot spread is a sensentive topic as it talks about suicide for my reading and created the spread on a cause of a death. Now this is topic and spread is to be used for anyone who arent heavliy affected nor find this offence. Im not doing this to upset anyone in ANY shape or form, but death is a milestone that every living thing experiences regardless if you like to accept it as it is or not. Enough of the ranting heres a reading ive done earlier on today as I was in a dark state of mind. So heres how the spread works and the cards I have gotten for the reading. For further details I will be expanding my reading with furth…

Hello, everyone This is a spread to give you a general look at your life. If you have the crystals, you can lay them out in the spread positions for a little extra oomph. -------1------- -----8---2----- ---7---9---3--- -----6---4----- -------5------- 1. Citrine-your state of mind. 2. Bloodstone…

this is inspired by the line from my old Halloween spread 11. how as a ghost you could still be earthbound,(death) and over the years , the feedback was pretty accurate to how the querents could see themselves as earth bound ,, the topic was , yes I could stay earthbound for revenge,, or to watch over their loved ones.. course you could watch over the loves ones from the light but it is rare to be able to do more from there as you sort of agreed to let the living live their lives when you cross over. so using this as a stepping stone the idea is well you are a ghost and you got some lessons to learn ehee. in this story , you are imaging yourself as ghost . …

Does anyone remember making PIN charts when they were younger? No? Just me? Well let me explain what they're about... You'll probably have heard of a pro's and con's list, well, a PIN chart takes that a step further. Instead of writing only the good and bad things about a situation, you write down all the Positive, Negative, and Interesting things about it. Hense, PIN. The Interesting things are all those things that are neither positive nor negative, they're just... Interesting. This spread came about when we were looking at buying a new house and both my husband and myself were finding it difficult to look at things objectively. Did we really wan…

This spread was designed as a part of a very powerful New Moon ritual that I performed to strengthen psychic visions and gaining access to what I call the Great Void (it sort of acts as a portal to Axis Mundi.). You can view all the details on this ritual here: https://www.thetarotforum.com/magic-witchcraft/new-moon-ritual-working-with-crow-energy-a-spread-for-tapping-into-the-void/msg54856/#msg54856 but this spread can surely also be used on its own. And you are free to tweak it any way you like so that it better resonates with your circumstances, experiences and beliefs. In fact, I believe that the more you make it your own - the better it will work for you. The Aby…

Here is a spread I intend to use to measure the accuracy of prediction with the cards over an extended period of time. Its more obvious purpose is outdoor event planning. https://parsifalswheeldivination.com/2019/08/22/weather-or-not-an-event-planning-spread/

Hi everyone! My birthday is coming up in a couple of days, and I'm looking around for a possible spread to do for my birthday. Does anyone have a birthday spread they like to use? I found one in the AT archives that I'm thinking of using. This one was posted by user Pipistrelle as a 30th Birthday spread, but I think it could be used for any birthday. Here is the info from Pipistrelle- the spread is in the shape of a flower. So, what I'm thinking is, you can adjust the stem as needed to have a card for each previous decade, or you could even have an additional stem card to represent you just in the past year. I'm at a half-decade year, so I could add a card …

I don't know how long I've been using this spread, but it's been helpful in figuring out whatever I have a question about (the subject). Basically, - The Subject (on top, by itself), which is what the rest of the cards will be answering. - The Advice, (three cards in the middle), where each card elaborates further on what to do regarding the subject in question (this is also a great way to mix another deck in). - The Outcome, which is the bottom card, which is what happens if you take the advice cards regarding the subject. It doesn't mean it will happen - it is what will happen if the advice is followed. I actually don't know…
