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).

Ace of Hearts

The Root of Water: This card emerges as the fountainhead of emotion—a pristine, unfiltered source of joy, love, and creative potential. It heralds a new beginning in the realm of feelings, inviting you to immerse yourself in unconditional love and beauty. The Ace of Hearts is a reminder to nourish your inner self and allow pure, healing energy to flow into every aspect of life.

Joy, contentment, love, fruitfulness, beauty.

 

 

 

Outcome if you do it:

 

 

Ten of Diamonds

Wealth (Mercury in Virgo): This card encapsulates the pinnacle of material achievement—a culmination of diligent work and prudent management that leads to prosperity. The Ten of Diamonds signifies not only financial abundance but the completion of a long-term project or life's work. It invites you to savour the rewards of your labour, recognise the maturity of your achievements, and prepare for the wisdom that comes with experience and stability.

 

 

 

 

Ten of Hearts

Satiety (Mars in Pisces): This card presents a paradox of fulfilment—a state where pleasure appears complete yet leaves an echo of longing. The Ten of Hearts, energised by Mars in Pisces, suggests that even when desires seem satisfied, there remains an undercurrent of what might have been. It challenges you to explore the nature of satisfaction: to recognise that true contentment involves continual growth and that each peak of joy is but a stepping stone to further emotional discovery.

 

 

 

 

Seven of Diamonds

Failure (Saturn in Taurus): Saturn in Taurus casts a sobering light on the Seven of Diamonds, which speaks to the perils of wasted effort and unfulfilled promises. This card reflects moments when hard work yields little gain, or when hopes are dashed by unforeseen obstacles. It urges you to reassess your strategies, learn from setbacks, and recognise that even failure carries the seeds of wisdom—encouraging you to recalibrate your approach for more fruitful outcomes.

Sloth, abandoned labour, hopes deceived, promises unfulfilled, disappointment.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Outcome if you do not do it:

 

 

Four of Hearts

Luxury (Moon in Cancer): This card delves into the realm of desire, exploring the allure of sensory indulgence and the seductive pull of excess. Under the soft glow of the Moon in Cancer, the Four of Hearts cautions against the overconsumption of pleasure, urging you to seek balance. It challenges you to distinguish between genuine emotional nourishment and the fleeting satisfaction of indulgence, guiding you towards a more meaningful fulfilment.

Giving in to desire. Excess, luxury, insatiability.

 

 

 

 

Three of Clubs

Virtue (Sun in Aries): Radiating with the intense light of the Sun in Aries, the Three of Clubs celebrates the realisation of a noble vision. It heralds the flourishing of creative ambition, where hope transforms into achievement. Yet, while it honours pride in one's pursuits, it also cautions against the perils of arrogance. This card invites you to honour your successes with humility—using your newfound strength to inspire rather than dominate.

 

 

 

 

Queen of Hearts

Cancer: A luminous, poetic soul, she exudes a dreamy and tranquil sensitivity that enchants all who come near. Deeply receptive, her nurturing nature is both a wellspring of inspiration and, at times, dependent on the energies surrounding her. She invites you to explore your inner landscape with creativity and compassion while maintaining the strength to stand on your own.
