Single-Card Tarot Reading with the Rider-Waite Deck (With the Option to Continue)
Difficulty: Easiest
The one card tarot reading is best for times when focusing on just one thing without any potential complications is desirable. It can be used for just about any question, including to draw a card of the day, week, or even one's card of ultimate destiny. It can also be used repetitively, as some readers prefer to pull one card at a time, watching as a story unfolds. There are even some readers who don't use tarot spreads at all, relying on this method alone.
Your One-Card (at a time) Reading
Draw #1 — 10 of Wands
A man oppressed by the weight of the ten staves which he is carrying.
Divinatory Meaning:
A card of many significances, and some of the readings cannot be harmonised. I set aside that which connects it with honour and good faith. The chief meaning is oppression simply, but it is also fortune, gain, any kind of success, and then it is the oppression of these things. It is also a card of false-seeming, disguise, perfidy. The place which the figure is approaching may suffer from the rods that he carries. Success is stultified if the Nine of Swords follows, and if it is a question of a lawsuit, there will be certain loss.
