How to Read the Celtic Cross
Spread
Tarot readings done using the Celtic Cross spread are
accomplished with ten cards laid out in the form of a cross.
Besides being one of the most popular spreads used in tarot
readings, it is also one of the most in-depth.
Once the Celtic Cross spread has been laid out, tarot
readings using this form can begin. The common interpretations
are derived from the meanings below.
There are ten cards in this spread, and each one represents
the following:
Card one: The Significator - your current state of mind, and
your main concern.
Card two: The Crossing - for the good or not, it is what
opposes or influences you.
Card three: Foundation - what brought on the situation, the
origin of your question.
Card four: Recent past – what is behind you, past issues and
events, things that just happened.
Card five: Crown – your current issues and what may come to
be.
Card six: The future – things that lie ahead of you, what
may happen.
Card seven: Emotions – the state your emotions are in
now.
Card eight: External forces – the influences of others
around you.
Card nine: Hopes and desires – what you want the outcome of
your question to be.
Card ten: The outcome – this is the result, the outcome of
your question.
Tarot readings are commonly used for entertainment purposes,
but for those who are seeking true answers to the issues in
their lives, this card spread can shed light on the situation.
However, all answers given as a result of tarot readings must
be taken in stride and with the understanding that it can be
changed by your own doing.
