If you are fairly new to Tarot readings, you may not realise that there are many different ways that the cards can be dealt (spreads) in order to determine the style of reading. For example:
The Horseshoe
This spread is made up of seven cards, laid out from left (1) to right (7) in the shape of a horseshoe.
Card 1 looks at what in the past is influencing you.
Card 2 deals with the present.
Card 3 looks at whether there are any hidden influences.
Card 4 identifies blocks that are stopping you moving forward.
Card 5 looks at external influences.
Card 6 reviews the best way forward.
Card 7 identifies the likely outcome. (more…)
