General reading spread.

If you really want to just get a general idea of your life, sometimes I think it's best to sit down and just plan one out yourself. Pinpointing the important things like education, employment, relationships at home and romance, as well as cards indicating your current state of mind. I often do this when I just want an idea of how things are going for me and it's interesting to take note of the card relationships that come up.

General? Well, I think it should be 3 card spread
Past - present - life
Or The celtic cross Spread. You can try it here

Have you looked in the Tarot Spreads Index at the top of this forum?
There are loads of general spreads in there: http://www.tarotforum.net/showthread.php?t=31867
Here's a simple one:
1...2...3....4....5....
1. Past
2. Present
3. Challenge / what's blocking you
4. Advice
5. Probable outcome if advice is followed.

my basic five-card spread
Here is my basic five-card spread, which can be used for a “general” or “open” reading, or to get insight into a specific issue.
Five cards in a straight line, left to right
1…2…3…4…5
Card meanings:
1. Past
2. Past underlying factor OR recent past
3. Present
4. Future underlying factor OR near future
5. Possible future or outcome
How I read cards 2 and 4 depends on the overall impression that I get for the spread.
I’m fairly new to tarot and so far have only read for myself, but reading the cards in this manner seems to be pretty effective for me. It usually just feels right, and from what I have gathered, intuition is as important as “book meanings”.
I have seen the five-card spread elsewhere as: past, recent past, present, near future, future. Obviously my version is very close to that, the difference being the option of more flexibility of interpretation of cards 2 and 4.
I hope that I am not being redundant with this post. I did spend some time looking through the forum and have not found anything exactly like it.
