Single Card Readings
Daily Meditation Card
Start the day with a card pull to set the tone. Is it a positive card? A negative card? What kind of day do you feel you will have if it is a card you connect with? Or disagree with? Each card tells a story, how does that story reflect your life or the lives of the people around you? If it is a card that suggests kindness, will you enter your day with kindness in your heart? Think about the message conveyed and what you can do about in in 24 hours.
Simple Yes or No
Everyone loves a simple, direct answer. Ask a yes or no question and see whether the card pulled is positive or negative.
Three Card Readings
Past-Present-Future
This is a classic tarot spread that takes a closer look at the path you are walking. The past is shown in the first card and represents obstacles you may have already overcome, relationships that have ended, and things you have left behind but can continue to reflect on your present path. The present card shows where you are now and what may currently be happening around you. The future card shows what is possible down the line, or outlines goals you may want to focus on or give up in favour of something new.
You-Other Person-Relationship
A good spread for the querent that wants to focus on their relationships. The first card represents you, the second card represents the other person, and the final card shows the ways you are connected to each other.
Situation-Action-Outcome
This spread is great for work related questions. The first card shows the situation you find yourself in, followed by the second card which prompts thought on how you could take action on that situation, or if action is warranted. The final card shows what the outcome could look like in relation to the action you wish to take.
Four Card Readings
1. What you know 2.What they know 3. What you don't know 4. What they don't know
This 4 card spread takes a closer look at the querent and where they are on the path. The first card shows what you already know about yourself and the world. The second card shows what others know or feel about the querent. The third card reveals what you may not know or what has not crossed your mind. The final card prompts the querent to think about what others may not know about them. This could apply to something you have kept private deliberately or something you can express more clearly to your friends if you want it known.
1. Matter at hand 2. What you shouldn't do 3. What you could do 4. Possible outcomes
