Spread Diagram

Overview

This spread helps compare two (or three) possible courses of events. Each 'branch' shows the past, influencing factors, and result for each path.

Card Positions

Current MomentThe current moment.

Alternative Result (Path 1)Result with the alternative decision.

Recent Events (Path 1)Recent events that influenced the problem.

Distant Past (Path 1)The distant past, origin of the situation.

Planned Result (Path 1)The planned result.

Alternative Result (Path 2)Result with the alternative decision.

Recent Events (Path 2)Recent events that influenced the problem.

Distant Past (Path 2)The distant past, cause of the situation.

Planned Result (Path 2)The planned result.

Alternative Result (Path 3)Result with the alternative decision.

Recent Events (Path 3)Recent events that influenced the problem.

Distant Past (Path 3)The distant past, cause of the situation.

How to Read

Shuffle the deck while focusing on the choice. Draw 13 cards. Card 1 in the center — the current moment. Left branch (2, 3, 4, 5) — first path. Right branch (6, 7, 8, 9) — second path. Lower branch (10, 11, 12, 13) — third path. Each branch reads the same: alternative result, recent events, distant past, planned result. Compare the outcomes of three paths (5, 9, 13) to choose the best one.

Tips & Advice

The spread is a map of three roads at a crossroads. Each branch has the same 4-card structure, allowing direct comparison. Pay attention to 'distant past' cards (4, 8, 12) — they show where the roots of each option grow from. The final cards of each branch (5, 9, 13) are the outcomes. Choose the path with the most harmonious outcome. Card 1 in the center is your reference point, from which all three paths diverge.
