The Pyramid Spread



Shuffle the cards as usual. Shuffle until you feel comfortable, making three piles with your left hand. Shuffle each pile of cards individually. Put them back into one pile in any order you wish with your left hand.

You can either make three piles of twelve cards and interpret the top cards or you can draw the first three cards and interpret them.

Follow the time table for this very large spread. It gives you an extended time table and even breaks things down into months for you. I would suggest this spread be used by experienced readers as it is a bit complicated, but insightful.

Read the cards as is indicated by the numbers of the cards and the table below, or you may read it as a very detailed reading still using many of the same techniques that I have already shown you.

See the basic colors of the sky - which is the most prominent?

Which is the most prominent or auspicious suit?

How many Major Arcana cards are in the spread? (In this large spread, 6 or more would be very significant).

How many are reversed?

You can always just work your way through the cards one by one and interpret each as you go and see what story they tell you. It is a journey of your next year of life, so you can see all the possibilities and all the wonderful probabilities that lie before you.

Remember to try many of the spreads and see which one works best for you.

You can even make up your own spread as I had said so many times before. Do whatever feels right for you.
