Well, I’ve always been into tarot cards, and the Celtic Cross spread is like the big boss of tarot spreads. I was super keen to make it more accurate, so I decided to follow some experts’ advice and give it a go.
Step 1: Preparation
I started by getting my tarot deck ready. I shuffled the cards like crazy, not just a few times but a good long while. I was imagining all my questions and energy going into those cards. As I shuffled, I kept my mind focused on what I wanted to know from the spread. I also made sure my space was quiet and free from distractions. I lit a little candle, you know, just to set that spooky and focused mood.
Step 2: Setting the Intention
Before laying out the cards, I clearly set my intention. I said out loud, “I want this Celtic Cross spread to give me accurate insights into my current situation.” I really believed that this clear intention would guide the cards to show me the right things. It’s like telling a GPS where you want to go before you start driving.
Step 3: Laying Out the Cards
Then came the fun part – laying out the cards. I carefully placed the first card in the center, which represents the present situation. I was so excited to see what it was. Then I added the other cards one by one according to the Celtic Cross pattern. Each card placement had a specific meaning, and I was trying to be as precise as possible. It was like building a little story with the cards.
Step 4: Reading the Cards
Once all the cards were laid out, I started reading them. I didn’t rush. I looked at each card’s image, color, and symbols. I thought about how they related to my intention and to each other. I also referred to my tarot guidebook, but I didn’t just rely on it blindly. I trusted my own intuition too. Sometimes, a card would seem to jump out at me and tell me something that wasn’t even in the book.
Step 5: Cross – Checking with Experts’ Advice
After my initial reading, I compared my findings with what the experts said. They recommended looking at the overall theme of the spread, not just individual cards. I noticed that some patterns emerged when I did this. For example, if there were a lot of cards related to change in a certain area of the spread, it was a strong sign that something big was about to happen in my life. The experts also said to pay attention to the position of reversed cards. In my spread, a reversed card in the “hopes and fears” position really made me think about my subconscious worries.
Step 6: Reflecting on the Results
Finally, I sat back and reflected on the whole spread. I thought about how the insights could apply to my real – life situation. I made a little list of things I could do based on what the cards told me. It was like getting a personalized advice from the universe. And you know what? When I looked back at my life a few weeks later, some of the things the spread predicted actually started to happen!
So, that’s my whole process of making the Celtic Cross tarot spread more accurate. It takes a bit of practice and patience, but it’s totally worth it. I hope my experience can help you if you’re also into tarot cards.
