Cross Spread

Cross Spread

 

 

Difficulty: Easy

The Cross Spread is good for questions asking for advice. It can also be used to determine the meaning of a confusing card from a previous reading, or for that matter, to shed light on other points of confusion.

In questions asking advice, this tarot spread is self-explanatory. The main thing is to determine the difference between cards #2 and #3. #1 is the topic and #4 is the result.

In questions regarding confusion, such as: "What was the meaning of Card (X) in the last spread?" the main thing is also to determine the difference between cards #2 and #3. In this case, #2 will show what the card was not referring to, and Card #3 will show what was really meant. Card #1 is the topic and #4 represents the purpose it serves.

Three of Spades

Sorrow (Saturn in Libra): Shrouded in melancholy, the Three of Spades brings the weight of sorrow and disruption. Under the sombre influence of Saturn in Libra, it embodies the inevitability of loss, delay, and separation. This card gently warns that the seeds of discord and melancholy, though painful, are integral to the cyclical nature of growth—each moment of sorrow paving the way for deeper wisdom.

Melancholy, disruption, discord, delay, separation.
