Decision Spread

Decision Spread

 

 

Difficulty: Easy

This simple but highly useful spread calls for a question to be asked in this format:

'What happens if I do (X), and what happens if I do not do (X)?'

Please note that it should not be viewed as a decision between two different options, but about whether a single option should be exercised or not. A second option would call for a separate reading.

Card #7 is the significator, the overall theme of the query.

Cards #3, #1, & #5 represent the chronological sequence of events that occurs if the reader chooses to do (X).

Cards #4, #2, & #6 represent the chronological sequence of events that unfolds if the reader chooses not to do (X).

Outcome if you do it:

 

 

Eight of Spades

Interference (Jupiter in Gemini): Marked by the restless energy of Jupiter in Gemini, the Eight of Spades warns against the dangers of distraction and needless complexity. It speaks of interference—where attention to minutiae undermines the broader vision, leading to restrictions and unforeseen misfortunes. This card urges you to step back from over-analysis and focus on the larger picture, lest the clutter of details obscure your true objectives and sap your momentum.

 

 

 

 

Ten of Clubs

Oppression (Saturn in Sagittarius): The Ten of Clubs serves as a stark warning about the misuse of raw power. Under the heavy hand of Saturn in Sagittarius, this card represents energy turned destructive—brute force that suppresses growth and stifles creativity. It cautions against the potential for self-imposed or external repression, where ambition may devolve into cruelty or malice if not guided by wisdom and compassion. It urges you to seek balance and channel your fiery energy constructively, lest it become an instrument of oppression.

Lies, repression, cruelty, malice. The element of fire in its most destructive form.

 

 

 

 

Nine of Clubs

Strength (Moon in Sagittarius): Quiet yet undeniable, the Nine of Clubs speaks of deep-seated resilience and the lasting power of inner strength. Influenced by the reflective Moon in Sagittarius, it underscores the importance of healing, recovery, and the persistence required to rise after setbacks. This card invites you to draw on the strength that comes from within—trust that your capacity for renewal will enable you to transform adversity into a source of power and stability.

Great strength, tremendous force, recovery, health, power, triumph. Change is stability.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Outcome if you do not do it:

 

 

Ace of Diamonds

The Root of Earth: This card heralds the spark of material existence—a seed of contentment and the promise of success. The Ace of Diamonds invites you to harness the energies of the physical world, celebrating the genesis of creative endeavours that manifest into real-world achievements. It suggests that now is the moment to establish a solid foundation for future prosperity, embracing both resourcefulness and grounded ambition.

Materialistic concerns, contentment, earthly power and success.

 

 

 

 

Five of Diamonds

Worry (Mercury in Taurus): The Five of Diamonds channels the cautionary energy of Mercury in Taurus, highlighting the strain that accompanies periods of stagnation or disruption in material pursuits. It speaks to the anxiety and potential loss that may arise from inertia or poorly timed ventures. This card advises you to address your concerns through practical reflection and clear communication—acknowledging that even moments of worry hold lessons that, once learned, can fortify your future efforts.

 

 

 

 

Six of Clubs

Victory (Jupiter in Leo): After the trials of conflict comes the sweet taste of victory. The Six of Clubs, buoyed by the expansive energy of Jupiter in Leo, heralds triumph and the fulfilment of long-held aspirations. It suggests that your perseverance has set the stage for success and that good news is on the horizon. This card encourages you to embrace your achievements with generosity and let your victorious spirit uplift those around you.

Success, gain, good news, expectations fulfilled.
