Relationship Spread #1

Relationship Spread #1

 

 

Difficulty: Easy

This tarot spread is easy to read, like a convenient chart. In this spread, court cards generally indicate actual people with the same characteristics. Knights (or corresponding princes, but not kings) and queens are meant to represent actual men and women in this tarot spread. Look for patterns in the cards as always.

Card #1 is the overall significator of the relationship. The two columns on either side of the significator characterise each individual's role in the relationship. The relationship does not have to be romantic. In fact, it could be a relationship between a person and a group, or even how two groups relate.

The top row, cards #7 & #2, is about the conscious thoughts of each person, or what they think about the relationship and likewise how they view their partner.

The middle row, cards #6 & #3, reveals the way each individual feels about the other. Emotional awareness corresponds to a person's unconscious thoughts that run deep, affecting a person in ways he or she is not fully aware of.

The bottom row, cards #5 & #4, represents the way each person behaves, in other words the stance taken regarding the relationship. The way a person acts may be genuine, but sometimes people are phony and manipulative, so it is best to weigh this card against the other person's cards to determine how they match up.

The Querent's Thoughts

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.

The Querent's Emotions

Two of Spades

Peace (Moon in Libra): In the delicate balance of the Two of Spades, contradictory qualities converge to form a fragile equilibrium. Influenced by the reflective Moon in Libra, this card speaks of reconciliation and the emergence of calm after strife. It suggests that true peace can arise from the integration of opposing forces—an eventual harmony where past conflicts settle into a state of bittersweet resolution and renewed understanding.

Pleasure after pain. Quarrel resolved.

 

 

 

 

The Other Person's Emotions

Nine of Diamonds

Gain (Venus in Virgo): The Nine of Diamonds radiates the graceful influence of Venus in Virgo, symbolising the fruition of material efforts through enhanced wealth and fortune. It points to gains that come through careful cultivation and practical acumen—such as inheritances or steady financial growth. This card encourages you to appreciate and build upon the material blessings in your life, transforming small victories into enduring prosperity.

Inheritance, increase in wealth, material fortune, accomplishment.

 

 

 

 

The Querent's External Stance

Seven of Spades

Futility (Moon in Aquarius): The Seven of Spades carries the haunting echo of battles fought in vain. Under the enigmatic Moon in Aquarius, it reveals the sense of exhaustion that arises when energy is expended on endeavours destined to yield only partial or delayed victories. This card serves as a reminder to assess whether continued struggle is worth the cost, or if redirecting your efforts might lead to a more meaningful, albeit different, path to success.

 

 

 

 

The Other Person's External Stance

Two of Clubs

Dominion (Mars in Aries): Exuding the assertive power of Mars in Aries, the Two of Clubs represents the clash and union of dynamic forces. It is a call to claim your domain with courage and decisiveness. This card speaks of emerging strength through bold action. It challenges you to balance assertiveness with strategic influence, reminding you that dominion arises when fierce determination is tempered with self-mastery and purpose.

Influence, courage, boldness, fierceness.
