The three-card spread: your forever template

If you learn nothing else, learn this spread. Three cards, three positions, endless configurations.

  • Past · Present · Future — the default, great for arcs.
  • Situation · Obstacle · Advice — for decisions.
  • Mind · Body · Spirit — for check-ins.
  • What I know · What I don't · What I need to do — for stuck points.

Draw three cards. Assign positions before you look. Read them in order. Don't over-think the reversed/upright distinction on day one — just go with upright meanings until they feel second-nature.
