New Deck Interview spread by FireRaven
(here: http://tarotforum.net/showthread.php?t=44573 )
I just received the International Icon Tarot in the mail yesterday. prior to doing this spread, I did a few one card draws and got my signifier (twice) as well as the Page of Wands and the Happy Squirrel. %-)
anyway, here's the layout:
New Deck Interview Spread by FireRaven
****** 5 ****** 6 ******
********** 4 **********
****** 3 ****** 2 ******
********** 1 **********
1. Tell me about yourself. What is your most important characteristic?
King of Pentacles. This deck is solid, grounded, and well thought-out. It *gets it*. It will be a reliable deck for readings.
2. What are your strengths as a deck?
Death. This deck will tell it like it is - no pulling punches. It's for real - and therefor it contains the possibility of true transformation. (Hells yeah!)
3. What are your limits as a deck?
Two of Cups. (LOL! See #2 above.)
4. What do you bring to the table -- what are you here to teach me?
9 Wands - will help develop intuition like mad! Well worth the effort involved.
5. How can I best learn from and collaborate with you?
4 Cups. See, think/meditate, and form yr (my) own counsel. Move when ready; chill when appropriate.
6. What is the potential outcome of our working relationship?
The Chariot. Advancing yr (my) understanding and yr (my) tarot career.
I then drew a final card, based on someone here saying that the card on the *bottom* of the deck (assuming you deal from the top) is the hidden element - I drew the Queen of Pentacles.
looks like Aces with this deck!!!
BTW this is a longhand version of my shorthand journalling style when writing up readings I do for myself. I'm much more narrative with readings for other people, and actually even less descriptive with my own readings.
