Tarot Card Layout the Celtic Cross or Ten Card Spread    TAROT TIPS FROM TEACHINGS OF THE LIGHT

Although there are many ways to do a tarot reading I will teach the method I use.

Five years ago I got my first Tarot deck and the method I use to draw the cards is what I will show you. Some readers do not read the cards reversed (upside down) but I do. A reversed card can change the meaning of the layout dramatically. Some cards mean the same thing but in a lesser degree.    And some reversed cards mean the exact opposite of the upright meaning.

I teach the 10 card layout or it is also known as the celtic cross layout.

Cards 1-6 represent the emotional and psycholigical issues the querent is in

Cards 7-10 refer to the question the querent asks   

Card 1 the querent

Card 2 the querents problem

Card 3 crowning the querent or what they hope for or what is the best that will come

Card 4 the querents foundation. experience or knowledge that will help with the problem card 2 or to help card 3 come true

Card 5 what is passing soon... what will change or end

Card 6 what is coming soon... what will change or begin

ALWAYS USE YOUR INTUITION IF AT ANY TIME THE CARD YOU DRAW DOESN'T FEEL RIGHT PUT IT BACK AND RESHUFFEL THE DECK AND DRAW AGAIN.    YOU CAN DO THIS AT ANYTIME. EVEN IF YOU KEEP CARDS 1346 AND WANT TO PUT CARDS 2 AND 5 BACK AND REDRAW NEW ONES.

After drawing cards 1-2-3-4 do an interp on their personal situation mental and emotional arena.

card one- the persons current situation

card two the persons problem

card three the persons goal

card four the persons past experience and wisdom, what will help to solve the problem and reach the goal

Draw cards 5 and 6

card five - what is passing or will be resolved in the persons personal life

card six - what is coming or will change or begin in the persons personal life

After drawing these 6 cards do a interpretation before moving on to the last four Cards 3 and 6 are coming cards or future....see if they match or cause you to wait on your interpretation.

Cards 4 and 5 are past cards or passing away use these two cards to give advice to the person on how to resolve the problem Card 2   

Leave the cards on the table and shuffel the rest of the cards again before drawing cards 7 8 9 10

Now ask for another question or address the original question

draw cards 7 8 and 9

card seven is what the querents opinion is about the question

card eight is the environment card...what is going on around them today or what is effecting their decision on the question card nine is the card of hopes or fears...   if its a positive card is a hope..  if a negative card is a fear

Shuffel the rest of the deck and draw card 10

card ten is the answer card ..gives the answer to a specific question ok now compare in the layout cards

1 and 7 are the querent cards

2 and 8 are their situation cards

cards 3 and 6 and 10 will give the answer for the  future cards

4 and 5 tell of the past and sometimes 7 does if it is similar

card 3 and 9 can represent their hopes if they match card 9 if it is unique and a card representing something negative... can be their fears

Good luck and thanks for your interest in my way of interpreting the Tarot
