Tarot Card Spread Lammas

Lammas is a feast day, associated with the height of summer’s fertility.  It marks the center point of the sun’s journey through Leo.

Along  with feasts, Lammas is associated with handfasting.  Handfasting has Celtic and Norse roots, and is part of the modern marriage ceremony.  When we say “tie the knot” we are referring to handfasting.

In honor of Lammas, and handfasting, I created the spread you see at the top of this post.

You can download the spread instructions and the spread graphic.

Laying Out the Spread

First, intend a question for this reading.

Obviously, the spread lends itself to relationship readings.  However, if you are about to embark on a new venture, this spread is appropriate as well.  Or you could also use it to take a peek at what your inner masculine and feminine are up to.

The spread consists of 5 cards.  Lay them out in any order you like, but I prefer top to bottom, left to right.-

Card 1 – Venus – yin energy – This is yourself if you are a woman.  What are you open to creating?  What values are you upholding or reflecting?

Card 2 – Mars – yang energy – This is yourself if you are a man.  What goal are you setting or pursuing?  What external actions are you taking?  What lights your fire?

Card 3 – Neptune – Divine union – This is the union of yin and yang.  What is being created through this Divine union?  How is it connecting you, or the both of you, to all that is, the endless sea of love and creativity?

Card 4 – The Moon – What from the past can be brought forward into this new relationship or venture?  What is fear based and needs to be released?

Card 5 – Jupiter – How can you expand and grow into this relationship or venture?  Where or how can you be optimistic?  What are the opportunities?

Enjoy!  And blessed Lammas to you.
