Tarot Spread: The Fool

Using a single card as the basis for a Tarot spread is an interesting approach to gaining additional insight into a situation. As with all readings, this spread invites us to look further within to find the answers we are looking for, but the positions and questions asked along the way align with the energy of The Fool

The Fool spread provides a great overview of any new endeavor or phase you are starting on. It encourages you to embrace the unknown and trust in the journey ahead. As you explore each position, the spread helps you gain insights into the potential challenges, hidden influences, and the lessons you need to learn. Ultimately, this spread helps you to see the available support and guidance, leading you toward the best possible outcome with The Fool's sense of wonder and excitement.

The Fool spread with 9 cards in a 3x3 layout with the first card being in the center.

The Spread Positions

This spread consists of nine cards, laid out in a compass-like flow starting in the center and moving north.

  1. The Leap of Faith: What new beginning or opportunity is presenting itself to me?
  2. Innocence & Trust: How can I embrace innocence and trust in this situation?
  3. Potential Pitfalls: What potential challenges or pitfalls should I be aware of?
  4. Spontaneity and Adventure: How can I bring more spontaneity and adventure into my life?
  5. Guidance from the Universe: What guidance does the universe have for me on this journey?
  6. Hidden Influences: What hidden influences are affecting my path?
  7. Lessons to Learn: What lessons do I need to learn during this new beginning?
  8. Support and Allies: Who or what can support me in this journey?
  9. Outcome: What is the potential outcome if I embrace the energy of The Fool?

Spread Enhancers

A Shadow Card is optional with these types of reading. The shadow card is pulled from the bottom of the deck and can help identify the underlying theme of the reading or an aspect of the situation or reading that you may have not previously considered.

Of course, as with any reading, you can always include additional clarifiers (the next top card of the deck) for any position if you feel you need further insight.
