Classic Celtic Cross Spread

A classic tarot spread -- best used when answering a specific question

Card #1 represents the present.

You've drawn Ten of Swords in reversed orientation as the the present.

Since you've drawn the reversed version, you're getting a reversed version of Betrayal energy, so it's manifesting as Relief and shows up looking like fatigue, the worst has passed, lessons learned, liberation.

This card indicates the present heart of the matter. It includes your present environment (both internal and external) and primary factor or dominant characteristic of the situation.

The High Priestess in reversed orientation

Card #2 represents immediate challenge.

You've drawn The High Priestess in reversed orientation as the immediate challenge.

Since you've drawn the reversed version, you're getting a reversed version of Intuition energy, so it's manifesting as Superficial and shows up looking like hidden agendas, not listening to inner voice.

This card indicates the immediate challenge you face. Even if your seems positive, keep in mind that it represents a challenge that must be overcome.

Card #3 represents the foundation.

You've drawn The Emperor as the the foundation.

You've drawn this card upright which has a theme of Authority and shows up in concepts like father-figure, leadership, structure, regulations.

This card represents the distant past, the root cause, and the foundation upon which the present was built.

Card #9 represents hopes & fears.

You've drawn Ten of Wands as the hopes & fears.

You've drawn this card upright which has a theme of Responsibility and shows up in concepts like overwhelm, overwork, burdens, challenge.

This card can be confusing because so often our hopes and fears are tightly enmeshed. It can be what you are afraid of, a secret desire, what you suspect is true, what you long for, or what you’re avoiding.

#10

Card #10 represents overall outcome.

You've drawn Death in reversed orientation as the overall outcome.

Since you've drawn the reversed version, you're getting a reversed version of Transformation energy, so it's manifesting as Stuck and shows up looking like depression, unable to move on or recover.

This is the most likely result, or where everything is leading. If this card is too ambiguous, consider drawing three extra cards to clarify.

Card #4 represents the recent past.

You've drawn Two of Cups as the the recent past.

You've drawn this card upright which has a theme of Partnership and shows up in concepts like respect, happiness, connection, trust, attraction.

This card indicates events that have happened in the recent past, though not necessarily related to the question. It can also be something that is complete or something of now fading importance.

Card #5 represents the best outcome.

You've drawn Knight of Wands as the the best outcome.

You've drawn this card upright which has a theme of Confidence and shows up in concepts like charming, courage, passion, lust, adventure.

This card represents your conscious goals and purpose, and the best outcome of those goals. A negative card may indicate it is time to cut one’s losses.

You've drawn The Lovers as the the immediate future.

You've drawn this card upright which has a theme of Relationships and shows up in concepts like love, communication, union, harmony, choices.

You've drawn this card upright which has a theme of Balance and shows up in concepts like moderation, combining, healing, patience.

This card represents external forces that influence the situation and are beyond your control. It could be the outside environment, how others see you, or others’ expectations will affect you.
