How to Choose the Right Spread

Consider Your Question

Simple yes/no questions work well with single-card draws. Complex life situations benefit from detailed spreads like the Celtic Cross.

Think About Time

Need quick guidance? Try a single card. Want to explore past, present, and future? The three-card spread is perfect.

🎯

Topic-Specific Spreads

Use the Relationship spread for love questions, Career spread for work matters, and Decision spread when facing choices.

📈

Your Experience Level

Beginners should start with simpler spreads and work up to more complex ones as they become familiar with card meanings.
