Wiccan Study - The Horseshoe Tarot Spread

The Horseshoe Spread

The Horseshoe is a simple spread of seven cards arranged, unsurprisingly, something like a horseshoe. This spread is often considered to be more applicable to a specific question than a general reading, though it may be used for either. To prepare the reading, seven cards are selected and dealt in the order shown. They are then interpreted in turn as follows:

1 The Past	Important events, issues or attitudes that have given rise to the current situation
2 The Present	The prevailing circumstances around the questioner
3 Hopes and Fears	The questioner's hopes, fears and expectations about the question or situation
4 Obstacles	Current obstacles, problems and conflicts that the questioner must deal with
5 Environment	The attitudes and actions of other people around the questioner
6 The Future	Future events and fresh influences about to come into play
7 The Outcome	The eventual outcome of events shown by the other cards
