This should be available in print or digital form around September 15, 2016. We are all looking forward to it! More details coming up shortly, in the meantime, here are a few excerpts.
1. Where you are
now. This is the seeker’s current
situation in the context of his question or concern.
2. Your next task
or step. This is what the seeker must do next to solve his quandary. It may
not be the last thing he has to accomplish, but it’s the very next thing.
3. Obstacles and
Challenges. Strictly speaking, this is what may try to prevent him from
taking the next step or doing the next
task. It may also show what his blocking him from reaching his over-all goal.
The reason this is at the highest point of the spread is
to show that it’s what needs to be overcome. It is potentially the most
important card in the spread.
4. Strengths and
Resources. This card helps show you what you have that will help you deal
with the obstacles. It may be people, things, information or knowledge, or even
some other action the seeker can do to make it to card #5.
5. New Focus or
Outcome. I like to see the ultimate card in any spread as a new focus
rather than a hard and fast outcome. Any outcomes rely heavily on the rest of
the spread and take away the seeker’s personal power to run his life.
As a new focus or new ideas, the seeker can make a choice
to set his sights on something or to look at his life from a different
perspective. He can begin this right away. It’s like a promise the seeker makes
to himself.
1. The Situation.
The state of the situation the seeker finds herself consulting the tarot about.
2. What you expect.
This shows what the seeker expects is happening or will happen. It is what she
knows, or what she thinks she knows.
3. What you don’t
expect. This may shed some light on the second card and vice versa, but
usually it shows something that is coming down the line.
4-5. What you are
going to do about it. These two cards show what the seeker must do in order
to see the situation to the hoped-for resolution. Together these two cards
should help to empower the seeker.
6. New Resources.
Something the seeker may rely on or gain strength from. Sometimes a very dark
card might show up here and that could show her something that is true or
fixed.
7. New Perspective
or Outcome. This hopefully gives the seeker some hope and a new way to deal
with whatever she has to deal with.
