Pentagram Spread

This sort of reading is excellent for focusing on a singular issue you may be facing in your life, such as Questions about your job specifically or your love life, questions about what may be going on in your life that is the root of your problems and many other forms of questions that you would want a more focused and detailed answer. A reading like this not only gives you a picture of what you are looking at in as far as events in your life, but too can show you precisely where to focus on the issues and what perhaps you can do. In the aspect of elemental balancing this can call attention to either over or under activity in your life and too can aid you in focusing and fixing the problem. Card Details:
Card 1: The Significator: In many Tarot card readings, the reader selects what's called a Significator card to represent the Querent -- the person for whom the reading is being done. In some traditions, the Significator is selected based on personal appearance. However, for this reading, you should choose a card out of the Major Arcana based on the issues in the Querent's life. Card 2:The Earth-Keeping Grounded:The second card in this deck is the Earth card. The element of Earth is associated with stability and security, and so this card indicates the overall issues surrounding the Querent's question.

• What is keeping them in place, or even holding them back?

• Are there forces at play here that are preventing them from moving forward?

• In other words, what is it that has made the situation stagnant?

Card 3:Air-The winds of Influence: The third position is the aspect of Air. Traditionally, Air is related to inspiration and communication. In this layout, this position signifies what other people are telling the Querent --

• Are there people providing a positive influence, or are they dragging the Querent down with negative messages?

• What sort of external forces are influencing the Querent's life right now?

Card 4:Fire-The ultimate destroyer: The fourth card in this reading is the element of Fire, which embodies strong will and energy. Fire can both create and destroy --

• Is the Querent subconsciously sabotaging their own goals?

• What sort of internal conflicts are at play here?
  

This is the card which shows the Querent's self-doubts and misapprehensions. Card 5:Water-Tides of Intuition:Position five is the Water card, and Water is typically associated with the powers of the Goddess. This is the element of wisdom and intuition, and ultimately, this is where the Querent will find what their intuition is telling them.

• What can they learn from this situation?

• How can they adapt their current circumstances to meet their future needs and goals?

Card 6:Spirit-The whole self:Finally, the sixth card is the card of Spirit. This is the whole self, the culmination of the journey, and what all the other cards are leading up to. Look at the previous four cards, representing the four elements, and see what they tell you. They are chapters in a book, but this card is the last page --

• How will things be resolved if the Querent remains on his present path?

• What, ultimately, will be the end result of all the internal and external influences on the Querent's issue?
