So, yesterday I decided to do a "week ahead" kind of spread with the Greenwood. I thought if I look at the spread each day I might be able to start teasing out how the cards reflect everyday life.
I drew 5 cards, first card in the centre and 4 cards surrounding it. One in each corner, with the central card representing the main theme of this week, and the other cards being influences and events etc.
I'm really liking it, I went back to it this morning where it is laid out, and I'm starting to see some things in the cards. It was a great reading, and as the week progresses I hope it matures to an even tastier reading!
3 majors, and it included 2 cards that have been appearing regularly since I started working with the Greenwood. Balance (Temperance) and the 7 Wands-Clearance. Balance is actually the central card for the spread and the main theme for the week. This is a card I definitely need to work more with, to really get to the bottom of what I need to learn from it.
I'm currently trying to work out the logistics of using my Greenwood for the Sacred Days of Yule spread I do each year. If I use the Greenwood, I can't use it for everyday readings, as the deck is kept seperate. If I only had 2 copies....! I really think it would make a great partner for the Sacred Days of Yule spread, so I may have to bend my rules slightly, and select another deck to use whilst it's out of everyday circulation. Maybe the Wildwood, as it's kind of a child of the Greenwood, or the Druidcraft. If anyone has any other suggestions, I would love to hear them!
I also need to finish off writing up my thoughts of the 2 of Stones, as I haven't completed that yet! Studying the cards and writing down my meanings will probably take me forever to finish. Long after I have assimilated the meanings into my brain anyway.
