Secret of the Priestess Spread
Cards drawn: 9 (difficulty: average)

This spread makes a nice alternative to the Celtic Cross, which covers basically the same ground. It is useful when a question doesn’t quite call for the Ankh spread. This tarot spread is helpful for looking into a current trend. The High Priestess may or may not present a mysterious secret to be analysed after the rest of the spread.

Card positions:
significator #1
significator #2
This is the current influence at this time.
The Waxing Moon indicates what is on the horizon, or the approaching influence. This is the immediate future.
The Waning Moon is the influence that is moving into the past.
The Dark indicates what is there but not fully perceived, though noticed on a deeper level of consciousness.
The Light is what is clearly recognized, consciously.
The Next Step is the near future, where this journey leads.
The final tarot card, ONLY if it happens to be of the Major Arcana, reveals the Secret of the High Priestess. This is a special message that should be given added weight.
