Pinnocchio's Journey

Pinocchio's Journey

Another spread to add to my on-going series of Disney tarot spreads. This spread is for the coming new year and to get more insight on what may lay ahead as you embark into a new year in your life.

This spread is based on the Disney movie Pinocchio. This story is different than the original fairytale, so please be sure to keep in mind that the meanings relating to the story will differ from the original Pinocchio fairytale.

I see Pinocchio's story as a boy who embarks upon a journey to experience what life can bring. He goes through many instances, lies, makes mistakes, and learns from them, as I feel we all do during our own life.

A year can make quite an impression upon ourselves, and we end up not being the same person we were when we first start off. The first and last card gives us a comparison of how much we might change from start to finish in any given new year. This spread is to help you see what may lie ahead as you experience what life has in store for you.

Hope you guys enjoy the spread, and hope everyone has a happy new year! :D

Fairy tale spreads are cute and often seem to work well. I have read somewhere that psychologists think many of the old tales have a deep connection to our unconscious. Maybe that's why they work so well with tarot.
I added this spread to our Tarot Spreads Index (to post #8).

Where does Pinocchio's long nose factor in? Just kidding, I like this idea a lot, even though I don't remember all the characters very well; it has lots of story-telling potential. I'd love to see it adapted to Alice in Wonderland since that has plenty of characters to serve the purpose, and a deck that seems to be perfectly suited. But since this seems to be part of a series of spreads, you've probably already done it! :)
