Decision Spread
Difficulty: Easy
This simple but highly useful spread calls for a question to be asked in this format:
“What happens if I do (X), and what happens if I do not do (X)?“
Please note that it should not be viewed as a decision between 2 different options, but about whether or not a single option should be exercised. A second option would call for a separate reading.
Card #7 is the significator, the overall theme of the query.
Cards #3, #1, & #5 represent the chronological sequence of events that occurs if you choose to do (X).
Cards #4, #2, & #6 represent the chronological sequence of events that unfolds if you choose NOT to do (X).

The matter of the question itself, synthesis, the end of the matter, may mean delay, opposition, obstinacy, inertia, patience, perseverance, persistent stubbornness in difficulty. The crystallisation of the whole matter involved.
The Fool

Change of fortune. (This generally means good fortune because the fact of consultation implies anxiety or discontent.)
