I need a quick spread.

cait_inthe_moon

I'm a college student with a hectic schedule, andI'm new to the tarot. I was wondering if anyone knew of some quick spreads (other than one card spreads), that I could do in the little free time that I have (usually no more than twenty minutes, sometimes half an hour).
I picked up the tarot mainly for meditative and calming purposes, so those are the types of spreads that I am looking for.

Hi cait!

You might want to browse the spreads on the Tarot Spread index also listed at the top of the Tarot Spread Forum page as a sticky.

There are lots of spreads, some meditative as well, for you to peruse. :)

3 card spreads.

You can answer any question with 3 cards.

1. Body, Mind, Spirit
2. Situation / problem, What you can do about it, Oucome
3. Situation, Challenge, The way forward / advice

I'd definately check out Alissa's Tarot spread index too :)

Love

PNS

I saw the PNS spread and I tried it. That one is really good. I also saw the Smiley face spread and had a really good reading from it.
