Inspired by the Galapagos penguin, an endangered species that mates for life with only around 1,000 breeding pairs left. This spread is meant to give a fresh or updated perspective on a problem you have endured for a while, especially those where there is (hopefully) a means to an end.
Venus enters retrograde October 6th and will last till November 16. Starting in the romantic sign of Libra and ending with the intensity of Scorpio. When in a Venus retrograde we seem to be guided by our temptations. Good or bad, this is a time so reflect on what we want in relationships, in luxuries and in love. This spread helps us check in with ourselves, what we are challenged by in this cycles, why challenged us in the past, and what we are attracting from others.
You : this card represents yourself or the person being read. This is an ego card.
TheChallenge : the difficulties that need to be focused on during this Venus Retrograde cycle.
Mostrecentrelationship : the characteristic of your current or most recent relationship. What went wrong, what is going wrong, or when are the strengths here?
Yourrelationshipwithyourself : this I feel is the most important card in the spread. Self love and self harmony are incredibly important in all aspects of life. How is your relationship with yourself (or the person you are reading for) at this moment?
Whatareyouattracting : this is how others are perceiving you during this cycle. This card and the relationship with yourself card tend to be very interconnected. Are you giving off the vibe you want? Are you attracting the type of people you want to be around?

This is a basic 3-card spread. The seasons are changing and so are you! This spread can be used to help aid yourself or your querent through a sudden change in life. This spread can be used with any divination tool you prefer to use. Please do not edit the image description, it is there to aid those who have trouble reading, are blind, or have varying eye issues and use a text based reader. Happy changes and good spirits to you all.
(Image Description: A squre shaped image with a curved design on it. The background has leaves of varying oranges, reds, and yellows. There is text that reads Seasons change and so do I. It has three rectangler boxes to represent where each card goes.)
I mostly use tarot as a tool for personal introspection. Even people who don’t believe in divination of any kind can use tarot as an aid to explore different perspectives to a situation or even their own psyche. These are some things which I believe I need to confront about myself before achieving any real personal growth.
1. FIXATE
What are the parts of yourself or your life that you tend to get hung up about. Confronting yourself can be good, but overly obsessing on a particular problem or aspect of yourself can inhibit growth.
2. IGNORE
Conversely, what do you tend to push to the side. This can go both ways: some are unable to see the good things in themselves or their lives, while others gloss over their faults and avoid addressing their problems.
3. FALSE
What are the things we think to be true about ourselves, or our lives that are not. These are often negative qualities, a lot of people think they are less capable, less deserving or less worthy than they really are.
4. DECIPHER
What about ourselves have we yet to understand. Everyone has some things about themselves which they don’t yet fully grasp or cannot quite put to words.
5. WANT
What do we most want from ourselves and our lives. The things we wish were more true about ourselves or that we aspire to be. This is a long process to achieve, and part of that is learning that we can’t just skip to this step, we need to deal with the other parts of ourselves too, including the undesirable parts, before we can achieve true personal growth.
Note: Tarot is not a substitute for professional counselling and other forms of licensed therapy! Feel free to use it as a complimentary practice (unless otherwise advised), but do not rely on it as your sole means of treatment if you believe you need professional counselling.
