I made a basic spread for getting a new deck! There are plenty of wonderful “getting to know your deck” spreads, but this one is how I typically get to know the new additions to the family! I choose not to ask what the decks limitations are, simply because if I were having a conversation with someone for the first time I don’t think I’d be very open to talk if they asked that!
The First Card: The general personality of your deck. This question will reveal if your deck is painfully truthful, a prankster, a pragmatist, a romantic, etc. This could also symbolize the god if you use the cards to communicate with the divine.
The Second and Third Card: How does the deck feel about you? A simple first impression, how they feel about your energy. Just a brief introduction to you. What’s your first impression of me? Of our energy together?
The Fourth Card: We all have teachers in life and Tarot’s higher purpose is to teach us. To show us our areas of growth and help us improve. What can we learn from building a relationship with our deck?
The Fifth Card: Tarot, like all relationships, is a partnership. This card shows how to best utilize that partnership and shows you the best way to approach your deck.
The Sixth Card:Â The most likely result of working diligently with your deck.Â
The Seventh Card: The decks one piece of advice to you.
