Tarot Card Spreads
There are lots of different spreads that you can use when you are reading tarot cards. Some are very general, some deal with specific areas of your life, such as health, relationships, work or money and some deal with answering specific questions.
Some spreads will have meanings for specific positions and others will be more of an overview of all of the cards that have been laid down.
Many readers start with spreads such as the simple "3 card Past, Present or Future" spread and progress onto spreads such as the "Celtic Cross Spread" or the "21 card Past, Present, Future Romany Spread."
Many readers go on to design and use their own spreads.
Here are some of the most popular spreads.
Celtic Cross Spread
This is a very popular spread and is very widely used. It can be used for a general overview of a situation. It can also be used for asking specific questions, particularly if you are looking at alternate outcomes and maybe asking questions such as "What would be the outcome if I did this or did that?"
The Celtic Cross is also a very powerful spread because it can indicate the general outcome of a situation IF you do not make any changes, as well as your hopes about a situation, your deepest fears and also the influence of people around you on the situation and your decisions.
This is another very useful spread. It consists of 21 cards laid out in 3 rows of 7 cards. These represent the Past, the Present and the Future. They tell a story as they go along from beginning to end.
There are no specific positions for this spread, however it can be very useful as a general overview and you can then explore in more detail issues that might arise.
This is a spread that can be used in a couple of different ways. It can be used as a straightforward 12 month forecast spread, with one card representing the major trends for each month.
It can also be used as an Astrology chart, with each card representing one of the houses in an astrological chart.
