Celtic Cross
The Celtic Cross is one of the most popular tarot spreads. Six cards form a cross that looks at the situation itself, and four cards in a column look at you and the world around you. Take your time with this one.
- The heart of it: The situation as it stands
- The crossing card: What is helping or getting in the way
- Below: Roots and what lies underneath
- Behind: What is passing out of your life
- Above: Your hopes, or the best that could come of it
- Ahead: What is coming up soon
- You: Your attitude and how you see yourself
- Around you: Other people and your surroundings
- Hopes and fears: What you long for or worry about
- Direction: Where things seem to be heading
