Well, howdy there! Let’s talk about this here… uh… astrological tarot spread thing. I ain’t no fancy pants expert, ya hear? But I know a thing or two about readin’ cards, just like my grandma used to. She weren’t no city slicker neither.
So, what are these tarot spreads anyways? Think of it like this: it’s a way of layin’ out them cards, see? Like you’re settin’ the table for a good ol’ fashioned meal, but instead of plates and forks, you got cards. And each card, well, it’s got a story to tell. It ain’t just some hocus pocus, mind you. It’s about lookin’ at the pictures and figurin’ out what they mean for you.
Now, some folks like to ask all sorts of questions when they do a readin’. You know, like “Will I find love?” or “Am I gonna get that job?”. But you gotta remember, the cards ain’t gonna give you a straight answer like “yes” or “no”. It’s more like they give you a nudge in the right direction, a little somethin’ to think about. Kinda like when your neighbor tells you the weather might turn bad, you still gotta decide if you’re gonna bring that umbrella, right?
There’s all sorts of ways to lay out them cards, and that’s what they call “spreads”. Some are simple, some are fancy. But one that folks talk about is this here “astrological tarot spread”. Sounds complicated, don’t it? But it ain’t so bad once you get the hang of it.
See, it’s got somethin’ to do with them stars and planets. Grandma used to say, “As above, so below.” Meaning, what happens up there in the sky affects what happens down here on earth. And that includes you and me. So, this spread, it tries to tap into that energy, see what the stars got to say about your life.
- First off, you gotta get yourself a deck of tarot cards. Don’t go buyin’ some fancy, expensive one if you ain’t got the money. Any deck will do, long as it feels right in your hands.
- Then, you shuffle them cards real good, thinkin’ about what you wanna know. You can ask a specific question, or you can just ask for general guidance. It’s up to you.
Now, the astrological tarot spread part, it’s like this. You lay them cards out in a circle, kinda like a clock. Twelve cards, one for each house of the zodiac. You start at 9 o’clock, just like Grandma’s old kitchen clock, and go around to the left, what they call “counter-clockwise”. Each spot means somethin’ different, just like each room in your house is for somethin’ different. You got the house of money, the house of love, the house of work… you get the picture.
For example, the third card you pull, that one goes in the third house, see? And that third house, well, it’s kinda like the “communication house”. It tells you how you talk to folks, how you share your ideas. And if you pull the Empress card there? Well, that’s a good sign! The Empress, she’s all about warmth and kindness, like a good mama bear. She’s also connected to that love planet, Venus, so maybe it means you’ll be talkin’ sweetly to someone special, or maybe you’ll just be feelin’ extra loving and kind yourself.
As you go around that circle, each card gives you a little peek into a different part of your life. It ain’t always easy to understand what they mean, but that’s part of the fun. You gotta use your gut, your intuition, like Grandma used to say. And don’t be afraid to ask for help. There’s plenty of folks out there who know more about this stuff than I do.
But the main thing is, don’t get too hung up on the details. Tarot ain’t about predictin’ the future, it’s about understandin’ yourself better. It’s about seein’ the patterns in your life, the good and the bad, and makin’ choices that will lead you down a happy path. Just like plantin’ seeds in the garden, you gotta tend to your soul, nurture your dreams, and trust that things will work out the way they’re supposed to.
So, next time you’re feelin’ lost or confused, give this here astrological tarot spread a try. You might be surprised at what you discover about yourself. And remember, ain’t nothin’ wrong with askin’ for a little guidance from the stars. We all need a little help sometimes, right?
