It's the perfect time of year for these seasonal spreads. I thought to gather them all in one place in the Spreads area if they are helpful for anyone in future.

 

We always do our Halloween / Samhain / Beltane reading circle in October every year in this area here

 

Do add any of your fave Halloween / Samhain / Beltane spreads to this section. Please link to the source and / or credit the creator if you post them here 🙂

- Afraid of the Dark Spread by Sammie

 

1. What are you afraid of? Deep down, inside yourself - where you don’t look very often, what is it that you are really afraid of that you won’t admit even to yourself.

2. What will turn on the light? What can make this secret fear go away, to make you feel more at peace within yourself - or what will reveal this fear to you.

3. What needs to be added? What can you do to enhance the situation or problem - to make that brew taste better!

4. What comes out of the pot? The end result, how the situation will develop or how the problem will work out in the end.

The May Queen Tarot Spread for Beltane

Position 1: Safety. 

What you need to feel safe. Where are you secure in yourself? A seemingly negative card describes a situation that needs your focused attention. Work with the energy of that card to produce feelings of safety.

Position 2: Abundance.
The emotional breadth of your life that is full and sweet. A challenging card directs you to constricted energy flow; by releasing the block of a challenging card, emotional abundance will follow.

Position 3: Regeneration.

The bold action needed to grow and flourish. A challenging card will show you the block that keeps you from your heart's desire.

Position 4: Love.

All forms of love, from friendship to sexual passion. Only you know your heart. Look at the suit of the card: what does it tell you about your life right now? 

Position 5: The Future.

The present conceivable outcome based on the flow of cards one through four. What story do the cards tell? The lessons to be learned and the potential for growth. How does position three, regeneration, relate to the future?

 

 

Do share with us if you use any of them and also do post your own faves and created spreads here, we will keep this as a collection of the best 🙂
