When you do a spread do you turn all the cards over at once and read them in a long line or do you turn over one at a time and read each one carefully and then string it all together as you go along?
I used to turn all the cards over as i dealt them and try and read them as i went along just noting the quick first flash that id get from each card, and then go back and read in detail. But often my head would be too overloaded and i found it difficult and even exhausting to read like that! I think its cos i've only been reading for a year and a half, and it was just too much to process at one time.
So lately i've been taking my time...resisting the urge to turn all of the cards over at once and laying out a spread and turning them over one at a time.
When i turn over the first one i write down what i read it as, then after ive got all i can i turn over the second card and read all i can from that one and that often gives me more information about the first card...etc....so for me slow and steady wins the race!
I feel satisfied after reading now, whereas when i turn over a full spread i cant concentrate on just one card at a time cos i can see all the others out the corner of my eye begging me to listen to them!
I've found my readings have much more depth and i'm getting information i would have missed if i bombard my head with a full spread in one go (i never really do more than 5 cards)
So how do you turn over the cards? What works best for you?
