Okay, so the other day I was feeling a bit lost about this whole relationship thing, you know? Like, where is it all really going? So, I decided to dust off my tarot deck and try a simple three-card spread – I saw it called the “Lovers” spread online, but it’s really just about exploring the relationship dynamics.
First things first, I gotta set the mood. I cleared off my little coffee table, lit a candle (vanilla, my fave!), and put on some chill music. Gotta have the right vibes, right?
I shuffled the deck while really focusing on my question. It wasn’t anything super specific, more like, “What do I need to understand about this relationship right now?” I’m not trying to predict the future, just get some clarity, some insight, ya know?
Then, I cut the deck into three piles and put them back together. I like to add this step,I feel it makes it more.. mine.
The Reading Itself
- Card 1: The Past. I laid this one down first. It represents the foundation of the relationship, what’s brought us to this point.
- Card 2: The Present. This card shows the current situation, the energy that’s happening right now between us.
- Card 3: The Potential Future. Okay, this isn’t a fortune-telling thing. It’s more like, if things continue on the current path, what’s the likely outcome? It’s a possibility, not a guarantee.
So I did that. Then I flipped Card 1,Card 2,Card 3, in sequence.
I won’t bore you with all the details of my specific cards (some things are just for me, you know?), but I will say it was… interesting. The Past card totally resonated – it highlighted some old patterns we’ve both been working through. The Present card was a bit of a wake-up call, showing me where I could be communicating better. And the Potential Future card? Well, let’s just say it gave me something to think about, a direction to consider.
After I finished the spread, I just sat there for a while, letting it all sink in. I wrote down some notes in my journal – what each card was, what I thought it meant, and how it made me feel. I do it to have something to check later.
It wasn’t like a magic solution or anything, but the three-card spread really helped me get some perspective. It’s like having a conversation with myself, using the cards as prompts. It reminded me that relationships are a journey, and it’s okay to check in and see where things are at every now and then. I felt much better, and I had some things that I wanted to talk about with my lover.
