Why a 3 Card Spread?
When we first start to read Tarot, we think we need to jump right into complicated spreads, like the 10‐Card Celtic Cross, to be a master Tarot reader or to see all aspects of a situation. But you may find ‐ like I did often ‐ you feel completely confused and frustrated, unable to see the forest from the trees and not knowing what the reading is trying to tell you. Enter the three‐card Tarot spread – a way to quickly and accurately answer questions, with just three Tarot cards.
Sure, there are tons of fancy (and complicated) Tarot spreads that have ten, twenty, even all seventy‐eight Tarot cards in them. But if you want to get right to the heart of any question, an excellent place to start is with a simple three‐card Tarot reading. It doesn’t matter whether you are a Tarot beginner doing a reading for the first time or a seasoned professional with decades of experience – a three‐card Tarot reading will give you the crystal clear insight you need. Seriously, you can get super deep with just three cards.
