Astrological Tarot Card Spread

I have been having a lot of fun with the Astrological Tarot card spread. This Tarot card spread uses 12 cards selected from your deck to represent the 12 astrological houses. The astrological houses represent aspect of our lives such as our identity (who we are), career, spirituality, etc. It's a great reading for someone who wants analyze their overall life and to use as a guide for a year or maybe a decade.

I always like to incorporate the client's Sun sign, ascendant sign,

and moon sign for an extra layer to the reading.

I usually place the 12 chosen cards in a circle to resemble a Zodiac mandala with healing crystals in the centre of the circle. Some readers like to lay the cards out in 2 rows of 6 cards or 3 rows of 4 cards. Some readers like to leave the cards face down and turn the cards over as they read for each house. I like to have all the cards face up because to me the cards "speak" to each other while they are laid down in a Tarot spread. However you like to lay out the cards it is important to ask the card a questions while shuffling such as:

• What challenges do I face this year/decade?

• What is blocking me in finding love?

• What are the obstacles that I face in my career?

• What lessons do I need to learn to have a successful career?

These are just a few suggestions. This is a very extensive reading for sure, but I make sure the cards "hear" questions before any cards are chosen for a reading. When you ask the Tarot a question, it creates an energy and this helps you select the appropriate cards for your reading.
