Basic Tarot Spread- A Spread for any question
This method was taught to me by Professor Wayner Lyra and it is what I use to do my Lady Reading and also use it in ALL the readings I do.
1º Card=middle card (Eight of Swords) neutral - It has positive and negative polarity that therefore cancels, it talks about the question without a point of view, in the most pure and crude way, with positives and negatives just like real life.
2º Card = left card (Wheel of Fortune) negative - The worst of the middle card, the worst that is demarcating in the first one. The first card is always more important. It's the one that shows the result, it shows what's actually going on, good and bad. What we're going to do with the left card is a zoom of the bad aspects from the middle card, so it includes: what's not good in this decision, what you will need to left behind, what is wrong.It shows what is bad about the Future that turns.
3º Card = right card (The World) positive - The positive zoom of the middle card, which is the way of salvation,the strength, how much the person must invest in their life so that it works. Is the most positive aspect of the middle card with the meaning of this card.
Listen - attentively to your client's question, practice active listening, he doesn't know is to work questions and the key to the answer. Don't be afraid to ask the client when you don't understand or when it's too vague.
Rephrase the question, improve it, putting what your consultant needs. Put in the question the possible date (If there is a time) to be read.
At first read cards 1 and 2 (both in the negative),this pair of cards represent the difficulties, obstacles, unforeseen issues, usually the problem and warnings for the consultant.
Read card 1 and 3 (both in the Positive) this pair of cards is the solution to the question, they show the points that must be raised positively for the inquirer, it is the help, the cure, the path that the person must follow.
Evaluate the game poles. See if the game leans to a more negative or positive side. This is where you'll see if the game leans more to yes or no. Example: A Major versus a Minor Arcana. One of the court stronger than the other of the court. A Court with a minor...
Read the cards elements from the cards 2 (negative) and 3 (positive) to show the client where to apply its energy. Where does the energy come from (2) and where should the consultant's energy be directed (3).
Read the symbols on the cards. Symbols can repeat on cards during the game, The symbol on the left (negative) card is the problem, and on the right card the symbol shows the solution.
The next steps tend to take place in between the previous steps.
Listen to your intuition, it usually comes across rational interpretation. It takes you to the improbable. The intuitive process happens in the game and you need to be aware when it happens.
Attention in mediunic inspiration. In this step there are inspirations that run over your interpretation, understand the message, and see how to speak and whether to speak to the consultant. Observe the interferences that happen.
Talk to the consultant. It should leave the reading with a head full of ideas, and clear about its questions. Be open and transparent with your consultant, this will build trust and empathy from them.
What my spirits guides want to tell me?
What the spirit guides of this person want to tell them in this moment?
Step 3 - (Eight of Sword + Wheel of Fortune - negative)
You are a person who has had many ideas and inspirations but now you feel that you no longer receive support from your spirit guides. You think that luck has been played and that you are paying for everything you did wrong, you may even think that you are paying for the karma of other lifetimes.
Step 4 - (Eight of Swords + The World - positive)
The feeling you are having right now is actually an illusion, a failure to take responsibility and accept that you have the power to do what you want. You feel that your guides no longer guide you because they are not present all the time, that is because it is time for you to mature. They are protecting you, but your choices and decisions are yours alone. Is time to grow and growing is not flowers and sunshines.
Step 5 - (Wheel of Fortune + The World - poles)
What is happening is 100% your influence, you have the power of decision and choice, there is nothing blocking you but your indecision.
Step 6 (Wheel of Fortune (spirit/fire) + The World (spirit/earth) - elements)
You are a person connected to the spiritual and that is what you have to keep doing. It's time to strengthen your beliefs and not weaken them. Your current moment is of paramount importance as life is made of changes. Your message is to accept the changes and stop trying to delay any progress this might bring you.
Step 7 (Wheel of Fortune + Eight of Swords + The World - symbols)
The problem is that you don't trust the cycles of life (the wheel is a circle), you think you need to be at the center of things(the woman in the middle of a circle of swords) but in fact you should be the one that involves it (the woman involving a circle). You think you need to be protected, but it's also your spiritual duty to protect.
