Just for fun, I did two quick tarot spreads with a deck I
don't often use. It's a Shakespeare tarot and much more positively toned than
most decks. Still, I thought these spreads were fascinating.
First spread
1. Context of the question: 5 of Pentacles: Material trouble
2. Obstacles facing the questioner: 2 of Cups: Love, support
3. The questioner's resources: 5 of Wands: Struggle, competition
4. What precedes the question: 4 of Swords: Serious contemplation
5. The best possibility: The Empress: From the struggle, strength
6. What is to come: The
Hanged Man: Judiciousness, biding one's time
7. The questioner's attitude: 8 of Cups: Dejection, retreat
8. The questioner's influences: Knight of Pentacles: Readiness to serve, being of use
9. Hopes/fears: 7 of
Cups: Artifice, ephemera
10. Outcome: Knight
of Wands: Flight, change
In short, major changes ahead.
Second spread
1. Context of the question: The Hermit: Deceit
2. Obstacles facing the questioner: Strength: The ability to act
3. The questioner's resources: Queen of Wands: Love, possibly the love of material things
4. What precedes the question: 9 of Swords: Death, failure
5. The best possibility: Page of Pentacles: "Pay attention"
6. What is to come: 9
of Wands: Endurance
7. The questioner's attitude: 7 of Swords: Trouble
8. The questioner's influences: 2 of Swords: Balance from going along to get along
9. Hopes/fears: Knight
of Wands: Flight, change
10. Outcome: The Moon:
Danger, deception, darkness
In short, something bleak ahead.
So much for a light-hearted reading!
