Which tarot spread would suit my questio
Question
Which tarot spread would suit my question today?
Answer
For a question today, the spread depends on the *shape* of what you're asking, not on the day. Six shapes, and the platform draws them:
| Spread | Positions | Fits | Doesn't fit |
|---|---|---|---|
| `single` | One card, current guidance | Today, one short question, practice | Comparing options, two-person dynamics |
| `three` | Past → Present → Future | "What happens next," a timeline | When you want the mechanics of a relationship |
| `three` (re-seated) | You / Other / The field | A relationship or partnership | Your own everyday choice |
| `diamond` | Core / Root / Obstacle / Potential / Advice | Stuck decisions — you know the question, not the snag | A quick yes/no |
| `moon` | New / First quarter / Full / Last quarter | A monthly rhythm, a habit, one emotional cycle | One-off yes/no, urgent personnel calls |
| `horseshoe` | Two pasts / Now / Near future / Outside pressure / Advice / Outcome | A timeline with external pressure on it | Just one card today |
| `celtic` | Ten positions, including Hope/Fear and Outcome | A genuinely complex situation, several players | Anything you could answer with three cards — don't reach for the cross by default |
My read on today: unless your question is genuinely tangled with other people and longer history, `three` is the honest default, and `single` is the honest one if you only want a posture to hold for the day rather than an answer.
What's the question actually about — a decision, a person, a habit you're trying to hold, or something you can't yet name? That one thing picks the spread.
