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).

Joker

The Joker exudes playful disruption and unexpected vitality. It invites you to break free from the routine and consider that sometimes a sudden change can lead to new opportunities.

His reign is characterised by a focus on agricultural abundance, craftsmanship, and the efficient management of resources. He represents a figure of authority deeply invested in the practical aspects of life—his disciplined approach ensuring that every venture is executed with reliability, even if it sometimes comes at the expense of more transcendent pursuits.

 

 

 

 

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:

 

 

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.

 

 

 

 

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 Spades

Ruin (Sun in Gemini): At the culmination of a cycle, the Ten of Spades delivers a dramatic message of collapse and renewal. Bathed in the intense, illuminating energy of the Sun in Gemini, it represents the disintegration of old structures—where reason, when severed from reality, leads to disaster and the end of delusion. This card calls for a conscious reckoning with the forces that have driven you to ruin, urging you to dismantle what no longer serves you, so a more authentic and grounded vision may emerge. Spiritually, this card may mean the end of delusion.
