"personalized" yearly astrological spread - revisited for 2005
a couple threads of this spread from the past
double twist on the astrological year spread
how to dance the astrology spread twist
I want to do a reading & walk through 'study group' of a personalized twist on the well known astrological spread.
I also want to include Tarot & Astrological aspects in relation to the throw.
For Tarot it would be things such as Soul & Personality; Year cards etc.
For Astrology- how the throw related with the natal & transiting planets & progressions- etc.
Sounds like alot- but no pressures- we will only bite off as much as we can chew.
The thing with this spread is it's potential- I don't want to leave anything out, and anyone is free to focus on whatever comes out of it. (more astrological than tarot or vise-versa, numerology, or simply elemental patterns- what ever)
When I first saw and used the astrological spread, I wanted a way in which I could merge both; the overall house aspects for the year in general- and a month to month view.
Using the cards to read like this in the traditional layout manner seemed redundent....and the fact that you always started with Aries really bugged me.
It took a thread here at AT a year ago, years of rolling it around in my head prior to that & more familiarity with astrology- WALLA!
The Astrological spread, twisted around to fit each individual as well as being able to read it from both directions in the same throw.
things needed for study~
/*optional
1. A tarot deck {duh}
2. your Rising Sign
3. natal chart* - can be had at www.astro.com
4. soul & personality cards*
5. year card*
a calander to "chart" cards & such would also be helpful
Study will be formulated something like-
"laying out the cards"
1. What order they are placed in, to make the spread personalized.
Q&A
* participants will post their spread with card #1 being the Scorpio position (current sunsign)
2. Where to start to do a:
- (annual) the 12 aspects of life within the the year overall.
- (monthly) month to month - play by play of the year- starting in January
Q&A
"introductions"
-Hi, my name is....I have a soul of a.....and a personality of a.....my rising is, my sun is in, my moon is in....
This is where will give what ever data we want to share about ourselves
Note on Year cards- there are two ways to do a year card- for those who use the calandar year method- do nothing different than you normally do.
For those that use thier birthday to dictate what card- you might want to point out when it changes and what it is.
{as for me I don't have to worry about ANY of that, for my birthday and the new year is 1 hour and 13 minutes apart}
"now the readings"
Card position meanings for:
-(annual) the whole year house forcast- the 12 Life Aspects-
Q&A
-(monthly) the month to month reading- I hope for this part to be active throughout the year. Each card can be carefully looked into the month prior, keeping the 'view' fresh, as well as keeping us from having to do both readings fully all at once.
Q&A
"off to study"
-participants will have two threads each
Astro-twist: Annual {name}
&
Astro-twist: Monthly {name}
Starting the Study-
"laying out the cards"
There are several things that make this spread different from the 'traditional'
Traditionally this spread is layed starting out at a 9 o'clock position and placing twelve cards in a counter-clockwise circle.
This first position represents Aries/1st House: this position represents aspects related to the house-
Some will read this position for a time-forcast type reading- the card would represent the influences during the time when the Sun is in Aries.
The difference with the way the 'personalized' spread reads is this-
It starts with the lay out, still working with the "clock" form layout....
In a reading the first card may or may not start at the traditional Aries/9 o' Clock position.
The first card goes in the sign position that the Sun is currently in- example: a reading done today, first card is placed in Scorpio.
All cards after follow the counter-clockwise circle.
If you can have a copy of your natal chart that can be written on-
You can 'map' the cards on the chart. Then hang it on the wall for a quick reference & reminder
SO- now the "introductions" part and any questions? before we pull any cards
