developing ideas/concepts for Pi Day Spread?


Recommended Posts

Happy Pi Day! I was wondering if anyone has created a Spread based on the "sacred fraction" 22/7 or other metaphysical thought behind the digits of Pi?

 

My first level of thought was to pull the 7th and 22nd cards. Then, I was considering a layout similar to:

 

1st row (centered) - 3 cards

2nd row - 7 cards

3rd row - 7 cards

 

Any ideas on naming the slots for possible interpretation filters?

Flaxen mentioned (elsewhere) thinking on the concepts of the Majors for 22 (Fool) and 7 (Chariot).

 

I looked up images that label the parts of improper fractions and division problems.

22 is the numerator/dividend

7 is the denominator/divisor

 

How many 7s are in 22? Answer: 3.14 ...

 

So, from the Major Arcana we have

Empress

Temperance

 

And the Minor Arcana would be (from a given suit)

Threes

Kings

 

So, my experimental "lenses" for the themes of the rows would be:

 

1st row/3 cards ~ 7 Chariot "will"

2nd row/7 cards ~ 3 "creativity"

3rd row/7 cards ~ 14 "work"

3rd row/7 cards ~ 14 "work"

 

I like these. :)

 

The following also appeals:

1st row - Purpose

2nd row - Growth/ Expansion

3rd row - Alchemy (where the magic happens)

Super cool!

 

Anyone who wants to, please drop your correspondence associations here too. For example, looking at the Tree of Life sephiroth referenced, etc.

 

eta: I am in no way claiming "authorship" to this potential spread. Feel free to tweak it and share it wherever you like!

It is hard to get things to line up with typing only, but here is the order that I laid my cards down:

 

Row One: ________2 - 1 - 3 (centered)

Row Two: ____7 - 6 - 5 - 4 - 3 - 2 - 1

Row Three: __8 - 9 - 10 - 11 - 12 - 13 - 14
