I just tried this very simple tarot spread for myself, and it read me to filth, so I made this real quick on canva to be able to post it here and save it for later. You're free to try it!
This is loosely based on the associations for each direction in my practice.
1. In the center, will give you an outsider's perspective on your current standing, (trying to be objective when your vision is clouded) 2. laid across it, will give you an outsider's perspective of your problem , (again, trying to get a more objective view) 3. South shows you the foundations of the problem (and what you should probably want to walk away from), 4. West shows you your internal landscape, emotional and mental, what the "fog" clouding your thoughts is made of, 5. East is where the sun rises and will give you the tools to dispel the fog, to clear your mind and move forwards, finally 6. North tells you where your focus should be, what you should be looking forwards to, your lighthouse to a safe harbor.
You could add a 7th card if you really want to know the outcome of the situation (that is, a vision of what the outcome will be if you follow this advice) but it's entirely optional.
