Prompt: “The purpose of this activity is to practice interpreting small spreads by combining card meanings, symbols and intuition. We will all interpret the same cards based on a few different (imaginary) situations. A 3 card spread will be posted together with 2 more specific scenarios. It’s your choice which scenario you’d prefer to use, or if you’d rather do a general reading of these cards as for an imaginary querent.”
Scenario 1 – It’s the new moon, and Raniah wants to figure out what to let go. She’s been going through a breakup and just got her first car.
The Moon in the center position indicates your feelings of uncertainty in this moment. Leave behind your desire to learn and grow with this person you’ve been in a relationship with (Page of Swords). Instead, as you head into the future, focus your attention on making good choices moving forward.
Scenario 2 – Mary-Ann doesn’t know how to feel about their new step-dad. They want to know how to get to know him better.
You’re going to have to step up and take an active role in learning about your new step-dad. Ask questions and engage him in conversation so that you can work past your uncertainty and fear concerning this new person and new situation in your life, and begin to explore the different facets of who the man is.
Scenario 3 – A general reading (feel free to add your own flair or a backstory).
Quit worrying so much (The Moon) about which direction to go in (Seven of Cups)… and just start already (Page of Swords). Too much stewing is often caused by the emotions getting tangled up in your decision making process… instead, do the practical thing and just pick one small thing to do, then another. You will pick up momentum once you get the ball rolling.
