New Year's Spread - I'll be the first to start this Thread
The following spread is what I plan to perform on New Year's Eve. But, I am interested to see and learn what others plan to do. Please share! I am going to perform a 32 card category spread. In it each card represents ONE category. It is a general purpose reading to show what is coming up in the next year. Here are the categories. 1. Focus 2. Desire 3. Romance 4. The Unexpected 5. Others 6. The Home 7. Travel 8. Papers 9. Work/Career 10. Unions 11. Emotional State 12. Pleasure 13. News 14. Family 15. The Physical Body 16. Finances 17. Time 18. Friends 19. Visitors/Callers 20. Mail 21. Anxiety 22. Disappointment 23. Endings 24. New Beginnings 25. Inheritance 26. Rewards/Gifts 27. Success 28. Fortune 29. Blessings 30. Special Guidance 31. Best Course of Action 32. Outcome I have never performed a spread as "mundane" as this, but I will see how it goes. Any suggestions or comments? |

I did mine for Yule and it's very simple: I draw 12 cards, one for each month of the coming year.

I plan on doing he same as tarotlady, but I am going to do mine on New Years' Eve. Yours looks like a great spread, though!

I've never done a spread with more than a dozen or so cards. I am afraid it would be too time consuming and confusing! I guess I'm a coward, but I know my limitations  I do plan to bring a deck along to a party I'm going to, and maybe do some readings. I think that will be fun. Good luck, imagoddess!

Your idea reminds me of Madame Lenormand's Nines. I don't own any books bout her specifically; I've just seen an outline for the spread in the book that came with my Fortune Teller's Deck. It's left to right in four rows of nine, starting with the top row, and the topics go like this: First row: #1. current projects 2. satisfaction 3. success 4. hopes 5. risk and speculation 6. desire 7. challenges 8. adversaries 9. acquaintances and associates Second row #10. loss 11. home 12. money 13. joy 14. love 15. luck 16. commitment 17. worries 18. happiness Third row #19. prospects 20. communication 21. rivals 22. talents 23. love phase 24. progress 25. benefits 26. creativity 27. changes Fourth row #28. endings 29. rewards 30. gossip and scandal 31. the wheel of fortune 32. resources 33. hidden factors 34. travel 35. ambition 36. health I haven't tried this spread out myself. Usually I stick to Celtic Crosses or spreads I modify to my purposes. For New Year's I'll probably do a CC or a Zodiac spread similar to Tarotlady and Phoenix's. I think I'd do at least twenty four cards, though; one for each month and each house. Ooooo, I'm getting ideas for a new spread!  Last edited by JC : 29-12-2002 at 01:35. |

Well... I actually haven't done my new year's reading yet... I'm such a slacker!  However, I did one this morning for one of my coworkers... I kind of did it on the spur of the moment. I did a 5-card linear spread with the following position meanings;1=Passing influences 2=Accomplishments to reflect on 3=What will be carried over into the next year 4=Incomming influences 5=Goal for the comming year It actually worked out very well.

Desire/9 cups-stability 3. Romance/page cups-reflection 4. The Unexpected/9 disks-gain 5. Others/5 cups-regret 6. The Home/3 swords-discord 7. Travel/4 disks-materialism 8. Papers/10 cups-reward 9. Work/Career/2 words opposition 10. Unions/queen swords-imaginatino 11. Emotional State/death 12. Pleasure/chariot 13. News/4 swords-rest 14. Family/ the sun 15. The Physical Body/teh warrior (strength) 16. Finances/1 disks abundance 17. Time/the hight priest (magician) 18. Friends/knight of cups-movement 19. Visitors/Callers/queen wands-illumination 20. Mail/King cups-water 21. Anxiety/10 wands force 22. Disappointment/7 disks prudence 23. Endings/1 cups sprituality 24. New Beginnings/20 rebirth (how fitting) 25. Inheritance/7 cups delusion 26. Rewards/Gifts/2 cups-harmony 27. Success/discontent 28. Fortune/0 green man (fool) 29. Blessings/King Disks-earth 30. Special Guidance/9 wands revovery 31. Best Course of Action/page swords-thought 32. Outcome/12 sacrifice-hanged man this was an intersting selection fo cards that apply on multiple levels, hopefully this enhances this thread and offers its services to its maxium capability |
