Whenever I mention to students that they can make up their own spreads, their eyes pop out. You d think I told them to plot the Moon s orbit using three dimensional differential equations! One of the first spreads I ever created came out of questions I had about a possible romantic relationship. I designed it around the shape of scales and called it The Libra Relationship Scale. I thought about what I wanted to know and how a scale symbolized the relationship. Many of the answers were obvious. Then I decided where the locations were for. | The Wandering Hermit Learning the Tarot by Peter Denvid Wright 1999 by Peter Denvid Wright .

We ll start with a simple spread. Focus on a question you have and shuffle the cards and cut them into three piles face down like this Pile 1 Pile 2 Pile 3 Pile 1 represents the past. Pile 2 represents the Present. Pile 3 represents the future. Turn the piles over. Remember the topic you were concentrating on when you shuffled and cut the cards. That is the focus of this spread. Pile 1 tells you what has happened. It might not be what you expect and can often add extra insight into past events. Pile 2 is what is going on now and Pile 3 is what you can expect in the future. It s that simple. If you have not read the section on the Minor Arcana yet you can do this with only the 22 cards that make up the Major Arcana but you will get a clearer reading if you use the entire deck. I ve included two more spreads for you to learn here The Gateway to the Soul and The Celtic Cross. The Gateway to the Soul is much like the one you just did but more intended for meditational use. It is a spread I made up. The Celtic Cross is one of the most popular spreads used today. Many people use it almost exclusively. On the other hand some don t like it at all. Try it and see what you think. Remember General Answer 1 Shuffling and Cutting I already left notes about shuffling earlier in the tutorial. I start every spread by shuffling then using a three pile cut like above and read it as an introduction. Some other readers do that some don t. Then I pick up the cards starting with Pile 2 then 3 then 1. Then starting with the cards face up I deal them or place them in the spread. Some readers don t cut the deck some cut it once then use one side some deal the cards face down and turn them over one by one some .
