This was a little request from a member of the Tarot Readers Academy. This is a Tarot Spread that I use nearly daily and usually at the beginning of a Tarot Reading to see what is REALLY going on around a situation or person.
So let’s dive right into this easy-to-remember Tarot Spread that you can use in nearly any situation.
Ethony’s Five Card Tarot Spread
1. Centre – The energy around a person or situation
2. The Past – What has happened in the past to trigger the current situation or energy
3. The Future – What is the most likely outcome if things keep going the way they are or what is being projected into the future
4. The Known – What is known, what is dominant, what the person is aware of or focusing on
5. The Unknown – What is unknown, what is passive or subconscious, what is beneath the surface, what’s deep down

I rarely use spreads but I actually really like the 5 card ‘cross’ spread. I enjoy your take on card 4 and 5! It makes sense- the known (what’s in the mind) the unknown (buried beneath). I usually use card 4 as ‘spiritual advice’ (what is being channeled from above, signs and advice from ancestors/spirits/etc.) and card 5 as ‘what is my foundation… my roots’ (potentially showing stubborn approaches as well!)
Lovely, thank you for sharing the spread!
Love it thanks

Hello Tita and blessings.
I just watched your 5 card spread video and was wondering if this spread could be used using only the major arcana.
Thank you so much
Love this spreads structure! Thank you! Very helpful having a guide so to speak 🙂
