...and boy, have i written a lot of them.
after years of writing tarot spreads for social media, newsletter subscribers, various publications, and private clients, i've finally begun the rather involved process of compiling my favorites into one place.
while this will continue to expand as time goes on, the archive is where you can find my most popular, beloved, and oft-requested tarot spreads.
some spreads fit into multiple categories, so browse at your leisure, explore different categories, and see what strikes your fancy. it's my sincere hope that this archive will support your personal tarot work, and encourage you to try some new spreads.
please note that many of these spreads will take you to other websites, including instagram, autostraddle, and astrology answers. some of these images may not include alt text, for which i sincerely apologize. i have done my best to link to spreads that do include alt text whenever possible.
