Classic Celtic Cross Spread

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

Card #1 represents the present.

You've drawn The Hanged Man in reversed orientation as the the present.

Since you've drawn the reversed version, you're getting a reversed version of Sacrifice energy, so it's manifesting as Martyrdom and shows up looking like ulterior motives, unmotivated, selfish.

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.

Card #2 represents immediate challenge.

You've drawn Two of Cups as the immediate challenge.

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

Knight of Pentacles in reversed orientation

Card #3 represents the foundation.

You've drawn Knight of Pentacles in reversed orientation as the the foundation.

Since you've drawn the reversed version, you're getting a reversed version of Thorough energy, so it's manifesting as Obsessive and shows up looking like stubborn, grinding, self-serving, resisting compromise.

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