A tarot spread to motivate you for your day

While you can use this spread at any time, I like to use it first thing in the morning so that I can center myself and get ready for what’s to come. You could call this spread optimistic and galvanizing - it focuses on what you can do (and even enjoy) rather than what’s going to be challenging, so I’ve found it particularly helpful when I need a pep-talk or have been feeling doubtful and tender.

Then, lay out all four cards face down. Take a moment to focus your energy and then flip over the first card.

 

Card 1 

This card is your point of focus - what is this day going to be “all about”? Where can you focus your energy for the best outcomes? Use this card as your anchor if you get lost during the day.

Card 2 

This card shows where ease and joy come into the picture. Look to this card for inspiration, levity, and some hints at where you’re doing particularly well. (And, of course, where you can have some fun.)

Card 3

Think of this card as your foundation; acting from this place will bring you focus and success. It’s a way to orient yourself during the day, an approach you can take, and a space for advice.

Card 4

This spread ends with a jumping-off point, a bit of a push into the fray. This card shows you that first step - it’s time to get going!
