This is something I designed after reading about how doing daily readings for yourself can help you relate to the cards.
Mine is slightly more detailed than most daily spreads though...
---1---2---3---4---
--------5-6--------
This is how it works:
There are 24 hours in a day and on average 8 hours are spent sleeping leaving 16 waking hours. These can be divided into four sections of four hours represented by cards 1-4.
Divisions can vary for each person but since I usually sleep at 12 a.m. and wake up at 8 a.m. I use these divisions:
Card 1: 8 a.m. - 12 p.m. (Morning)
Card 2: 12 p.m. - 4 p.m. (Afternoon)
Card 3: 4 p.m. - 8 p.m. (Evening)
Card 4: 8 p.m. - 12 a.m. (Night)
So generally, the first four cards are used for each of the four parts of the day. If you're sleeping pattern is different from this , you can simply shift the hours in any direction to suit you but you must remember to apply the same difference to all the cards.
Usually the cards will tell you what to expect from each part of the day and will point out any significant events to look forward to.
The next two cards were inspired from certain versions of the celtic cross depicting an invisible force or underlying current in each of our lives.
This spread shows these things on a much smaller and more sensitive scale:
Card 5-6: Underlying or subconcious currents at work throughout your day. May include how you will feel, what you will learn from the day or advice on attitudes to adopt, what to look out for and what to take notice of.
These last cards are especially important partly because at some level, they become what the user makes of them. They are the mysterious cards whose meanings are never obviously apparent untill they are experienced and that experience can be used for learning.
The good thing about using this spread daily is that it makes people that much more sensitive about the message of the cards. By experiencing a small part of what the cards show on a small scale, users may then begin to relate to other combinations of cards from different readings better since they will have that much more understanding.
Also, the spread is flexible, it not only shows the events of the day in a periodic and specific arangement, but when viewed in its entirety can give an accurate general consensus of the day's foregoings.
It is also interesting to note down the daily pattern of the last two cards as they appear throughout a week, I myself seem to be getting the same general cards each time.
That said, this spread had proven to be accurate to me, but I'm not sure as to how it will be recieved. This is the first ever spread I designed so I've put alot of thought into it and I was quite nervous about presenting it to others.
Please be honest in your opinions, I enjoyed speclating about this spread and hope it can benefit other people that are interested but if you find any criticisms in my method please don't hesitate to speak your mind so that I may learn from it in the future.
...perhaps I worry too much?
