Tarot spreads
Have you ever drawn three cards and wondered how they fit together? That is what a spread is for. A spread is a layout where each position gives a card a job, and those positions turn a handful of cards into a story you can read. Here are the spreads we love most, from a quick three cards to the classic Celtic Cross.
Tips for any spread
- Decide your question before you shuffle.
- Decide the positions before you draw.
- Read each card in its position first, then look at the whole.
- Notice patterns: many cards of one suit, several Major Arcana, or repeated numbers.
