Okay, so I’ve been getting really into tarot lately, and I’ve also been trying to get a better handle on my finances. It hit me the other day – why not combine the two? I did some digging online about tarot spreads for financial questions, and let me tell you, it’s a whole world.
First, I grabbed my favorite deck – the one my grandma gave me. It just feels right, you know? I cleared a space on my desk, lit a candle (mostly for the vibes, honestly), and shuffled the cards while focusing on my general financial situation. I wasn’t looking for specific answers, more like overall guidance.
I decided to start simple. I found this three-card spread online that seemed pretty straightforward:

- Card 1: Current Financial Situation
- Card 2: Challenges or Obstacles
- Card 3: Advice or Action to Take
I laid out the cards, one by one. Let’s see… I got the Five of Pentacles for the first card. Okay, that kinda stung – it often represents financial hardship or feeling left out in the cold. But, it also resonated, things have been tight lately.
For the second card, the Challenges, I drew the Tower. Yikes! Major upheaval, sudden change… that definitely made me nervous. It felt like a warning that something unexpected might be coming.
Finally, for the Advice card, I flipped over the Ace of Pentacles. Phew! This one felt much more positive. New beginnings, opportunities, potential for prosperity. That gave me some hope.
My Interpretation
So, putting it all together… it felt like the cards were saying, “Yeah, things are tough right now (Five of Pentacles), and there might be a shake-up coming (Tower), but there’s also a chance for a fresh start and financial improvement if you’re open to it (Ace of Pentacles).”
It wasn’t a magic answer, but it did give me a framework to think about things. The Tower card definitely motivated me to double-check my emergency fund and make sure I’m prepared for anything. And the Ace of Pentacles encouraged me to start exploring some new income streams I’ve been considering.

I wrote all of the cards that I draw. I’m going to keep experimenting with different spreads and see what else I can learn. It’s a fun way to reflect and get a different perspective, and honestly, it’s been surprisingly helpful so far!
