My best friend just taught me the greatest tarot trick: Is there something in your life that isn’t going your way? Shuffle your cards, sift through them and find the Wheel of Fortune card. The cards found on either side of it are insight into what you need to do to change your circumstances.
Oh this is nice. Quick and painless.
OH AND ANOTHER.
You may use the same method above for any of the trumps, searching for the trump that best represents your concerns. Love? Find the cards on either side of the Lovers. Concerned about new beginnings? Scope who is hanging out with the Magician. Etc.
I love doing this! I started doing it after learning the basics of lenormand, since this type of significator-centered spread is really common. Try it!
When reading for yourself, another good technique is to find your significator and see what cards are around it to get a peek at your general environment. I used to do this all the time for personal readings and it worked really well. You could also do this with another person’s significator.
