A brief, yet somewhat deeper glimpse into the 10 Card Celtic Cross Tarot Spread

The full 10-Card Celtic Cross Spread is probably one of the most difficult Tarot Spreads to interpret, yet when completely understood, this incredible spread offers more enlightenment than any other. Sure, the Celtic Cross is normally printed in each Tarot Deck booklet, and each interpretation is similar to the next.  To the aspiring Tarot Reader this would seem a rather simple spread to take on with booklet in hand and just read each card in relation to it's position. However, delving into the relationships between the cards is where the mastery comes in.

Two simple methods to determine your Birth and Soul Card

Temperance: Tarot de Marseille

Determining your Birth Card and your Soul Card

One of the most exciting readings in Tarot is determining the querent’s Birth and Soul card (Soul card is also often known as the Shadow or Personality card) The Birth card can determine the individual aspects and characteristics of the querent. As you would use your date of birth to ascertain your Astrology sign, so too can you determine your own unique Tarot card. This card can assist you in gaining a deeper understanding of your strengths and weaknesses, thereby giving an accurate means to determine your true potential, as the Tarot will reveal where you are in your journey.

 

Here are two simple methods to help you determine your Birth and Soul Cards:

6 Tarot Runic Combo Reading. Email with jpeg photo, Skype, or Dropbox with emailed photos.

To really get deeper into what is transpiring, this is one of my favorite readings! As the Tarot de Marseille really gives so much essence in it's diagrams, yet is so simple, this reading flows beautifully with the simplicity of runes. This reading is based on story telling, and reading between the flows, cycles, and energies of the Tarot de Marseille. The runes however, give a whole new dimension to each card drawn, and thereby really add a deep, fulfilled enhancement to the poetry of the reading. This is a passionate reading, and one that will really alter your thoughts and emotions.

Have you ever felt surrounded by so much cloudiness that you feel drained, and the more you look to solve the issues, the less you can find any means of solution.  It is easy to loose all sense of hope in these situations. 

I would like to share this seven-card step to finding peace of mind, and pray that it restores perspective between you and your circumstances.  Bless this reading.

Death with Page of Wands

Death XIII and Page of Wands

Firstly, today's cards are jumpers, which refer to cards that jump out the deck while shuffling the cards. I find jumpers to be of utter importance as they highlight what I truly need be aware of, needless to say I am not going ahead with the reading I had planned to do earlier this morning, but rather focus on these two jumpers. Already I contemplate on two, and the significance of Two.  Conflict, joint, parts of one, unison, or in the case of these two cards, the connection. 

Yes or No Spreads

Yes or No Questions: 

I often get yes or no questions from querients, here are two spreads one could use to assist in these situations.

Shuffle reversed (Rx) cards, i.e. upside down cards, into the deck, and lay out three cards. By looking at the cards first off, read the patterns to see if they are progressing. Take into consideration the amount of reversals, i.e. two uprights or even better, three uprights indicate a strong possibility of a positive outcome.

Yin Yang

This delightful 2 card reading, albeit it simple, truly does illuminate much regarding a situation, as with the Yin Yang symbol it sheds light on the situation as a whole.

The First Position indicates what light is shed on the darkness of the issue, and the Second Position indicates the underlying issues that are often overlooked. 

The Celtic Cross Spread. 6 Card Spread

I captured these incredible Celtic Crosses at a well hidden
graveyard just outside Sutherland, SA.  

The Celtic Cross, as one can imagine, is one of the oldest 'recorded' spreads.  Personally I absolutely love this spread as one can identify so much in it.  

Position 1 indicates the issue at hand.

Position 2 addresses that which crosses you.

Position 3 indicates the root of the issue

Position 3 indicates the root of the issue

Leonardo da Vinci (1452 - 1519) is to me one of the most fascinating men that helped shape the world as painter, draftsman, inventor, theorist, and teacher.   This specific reading is based on the Vitruvian Man.
