Spreads
A card spread (or layout) is a designated pattern for placing tarot cards, where each position corresponds to a specific meaning, such as past, present, future, or specific life areas. Spreads provide structure, context, and a narrative flow to a reading, allowing for interpretation of individual card meanings and their relationships to one another.

Card 4: What energy can be used to propel things forward?

Finding Balance spreads
Place three cards on the left side (1) to indicate where you are putting too much time, energy and focus.
Place three cards on the right side (2) to indicate where you are not putting enough time, energy and focus.
Pull one more Card (B) to see how you can bring the two sides into balance.
three card spread
There are a range of questions that can be asked while doing a three card spread- all usually helpful for quick readings. There are:
past, present, future
energy, action, advice
present, challenge, breakthrough
One card spread
A one card spread can answer any quick questions that you have. But the most frequently used example is 'What card do I need for the day?" or any yes or no question that you may have. This spread is mostly open to interpretation.
