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).

Queen of Clubs
Aries: Radiating a calm yet potent presence, she blends serene attractiveness with the dynamic drive of Aries. Her relaxed strength and persistence make her a formidable force, though she shows little tolerance for opposition. She encourages you to stand firm in your convictions, adapting with grace while asserting your will in pursuit of creative endeavours.

Outcome if you do it:
Three of Diamonds
Works (Mars in Capricorn): The energy of Mars in Capricorn drives the Three of Diamonds to the forefront of enterprise and craftsmanship. This card is a dynamic emblem of construction, commerce, and the relentless pursuit of material gain through hard work and discipline. It serves as a reminder that success is built through consistent effort and strategic planning, urging you to invest your energy in projects that promise long-term growth and tangible rewards.
Construction, business, commerce, employment, material gain, growth.
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.
Seven of Hearts
Debauch (Venus in Scorpio): The Seven of Hearts warns of the dangers of unbridled passion when it tips into excess. With Venus in Scorpio intensifying its energy, this card highlights a descent into moral ambiguity—where the allure of indulgence may lead to deception and loss of integrity. It calls for reflection on your desires, encouraging you to cultivate a balance between passion and ethical grounding, lest you become entangled in fleeting, self-destructive pursuits.
Deception, shameless indulgence, lust, fornication, intoxication, delusion, promises unfulfilled.
Outcome if you do not do it:
Five of Clubs
Strife (Saturn in Leo): The Five of Clubs confronts you with the inevitable friction that accompanies any great endeavour. Under the stern influence of Saturn in Leo, this card signals conflicts—be they internal struggles, competitive battles, or clashes of will—that test your resolve. It serves as a reminder that growth often comes through adversity. It challenges you to confront your obstacles with discipline and fortitude, transforming strife into a catalyst for personal evolution.
Struggle, competition, opposition, violence, quarrelling, lust and carnal desire.
Six of Spades
Science (Mercury in Aquarius): In the precise, methodical energy of Mercury in Aquarius, the Six of Spades represents the culmination of intellectual endeavours. This card heralds the successful alignment of thought, analysis, and innovative insight—where every faculty converges on a clear, singular truth. It symbolises that through reason and collective understanding, even the most challenging problems can be dissected and resolved, paving the way for progress grounded in rationality.
Four of Spades
Truth (Jupiter in Libra): Radiating with the expansive clarity of Jupiter in Libra, the Four of Spades offers a sanctuary of intellectual recovery and restoration. This card is an oasis emerging after tumultuous periods, where the establishment of truth and established dogma brings order and balance. It calls upon you to seek honesty and intellectual authority, encouraging the formation of a clear, reasoned foundation after the chaos has subsided.
