Tarot spread generator

Choose a spread and deal: each position is labelled with what it represents, so you can practise reading or pick the right layout for your question.

  1. Past

    This position shows: What led here: the background or recent influence still shaping things.

  2. Present

    This position shows: Where you stand now: the core energy of the situation.

  3. Future

    This position shows: Where things are heading if nothing changes.

Which spread should I use?

  • Past · Present · Future: to understand how a situation developed and where it is heading.
  • Situation · Obstacle · Advice: when you feel stuck and want a next step.
  • Mind · Body · Spirit: for a general self check-in.
  • Celtic Cross: for complex questions involving many people or factors; ten cards give a lot of information and suit readers with some experience.

How the Celtic Cross is laid out

Card 1 goes in the centre with card 2 laid across it. Cards 3 to 6 sit below, left, above and right to form the cross, and cards 7 to 10 form a column on the right from bottom to top. Read the cross first (the situation), then the staff (you, your environment, hopes and fears, outcome).
