Description
I'm hoping this will help someone. In the back of my spread book, I've created basically a reference sheet. Please ignore the mistake in the top chart, I accidentally put the wands realm in the swords section...I also apologise for the smallness of my writing, I had to keep it small to fit everything in. The text also gets a little blurred near the spine of the book - I tried to minimise that, but I apologise if it's difficult to read.
Although I rely mostly on intuition, having a single reference sheet with a few keywords for each card often helps when I'm a bit unsure. It also helps me to compare the cards in a spread across the board at a single glance. I've certainly found it to be a useful learning tool, and I hope others will also.

This is almost a year old, but, this is for Tarot cards. While they were originally made for playing cards, they became more popular for divination and each card has a meaning. The playing cards came from Tarot cards, hence the different suits consisting of pentacles, swords, cups and wands. Normal playing cards can also be used for divination purposes, but isn't as popularly used for.

Really handy, thanks. I'm basing a short story off of the symbolism of tarot cards and this will be incredibly helpful. I was searching the Tarot Wiki for something straightforward like this, but this is the best.

Hi sorry for the late reply - any spread at all. The reference sheet is meant to give you keywords that relate to the meanings of the card. I've since updated this with the meanings of the major arcana as well. So for instance, if you did a typical 3-card spread (Past, Present, Future), if you are unsure of the meanings of one or more of the cards, you don't have to skim through books etc trying to find the meanings - they're all there in one reference sheet. It also helps to show the relationship between the cards and helps you find links.
