Reading techniques

Two sides of the same coin: A tarot technique

26603652_yin_yang_symbol_2Do you remember the technique, Worry Wisdom? How about using that technique for different dualities?

I love this technique because:

  • you get two different perspectives on the issue when you swop the cards (and getting a new perspective is crucial in solving problems),
  • you draw two cards but get four pieces of information, and
  • it illustrates that dualities always contain the seed of one within the other.

So here we go:

  1. from the list below, decide which duality you want to explore,
  2. draw two cards,
  3. place them in the criss-cross position below,
  4. read the cards in this two-card spread, then
  5. swap the cards (card 1 becomes card 2, and card 2 becomes 1) and read the spread again.
