Phoenix Rising
This spread I got from a cartomancy book "Personal Prophecy" using 24 cards
8 groups of 3.
.....................................3 1 2
...............4 11 18..........5 12 19........6 13 20........7 14 21
..........................8 15 22.......9 16 23...........10 17 24
1.Shuffle cut into 3 piles
#1.......#2.........#3
2.from pile#1 deal off the top 7 cards (place to Right) and take the 8th card and put in position 1. Discard the remaining cards to left side, not the 7 cards placed at the right side.
3.from pile#2 deal off the top 7 cards (place on top of the other 7 cards) take the 8th card of this pile and place in position 2. Discard the remainng cards.
4.from pile#3 deal off another 7 cards (place on top of the other 14 cards) take the 8th card and place in position 3. Discard the remaining cards.
So you should have 3 cards in positions 3 1 2, and 21 cards on the right side. Now with these 21 cards, still face down, from the top, deal off as in positions shown above, card 4 starts first trio, card 5 starts the next trio, etc, you should end up with 8 piles of 3 cards (including the first trio 3 1 2)
The trio 3 12- Present moment
trio 4 11 18-Home environment
trio 2 12 19-You(what's important to you)
trio 6 13 20-Your wish
trio 7 14 21-unexpected
trio 8 15 22 What's expected
trio 9 16 23-What will surprise you
trio 10 17 24-What is sure to come true
I did this spread, very interesting!!
