Mister Tarot's Handbook of Tarot Spreads


Book Description

In this handbook, the reader is provided with a wide range of Tarot spreads for guidance and insight. It’s a collection of Mister Tarot’s favourite card layouts—the ones he uses on a regular basis. There are more than a dozen useful and rewarding spreads that are clearly explained and fully illustrated with example readings. They have been tested in Mister Tarot’s workshops over many years, where students have found them to be easy to use, yet profound and enlightening at the same time. When dealing with questions of a pragmatic nature, you can choose one of the simple spreads, such as the One Card Draw, or the Timeline Spread, but when you have questions about your spiritual life, try the Soul Activation Spread, or the Illumination Layout. Need motivation? Go straight to the Action Plan, or the Kicking Goals layout. A little insight goes a long way to clarifying the complexities of life, and these Tarot spreads are an ideal starting point to help you gain greater awareness about yourself and your circumstances. These handy (and often original) layouts cover most of the questions you are ever likely to ask. The book includes a handy reference chart of keywords for each card.
