The Upgrade - A Multi-Dimensional Tarot Spread for Growth

Tarot for Growth Mindset

This is a multi-dimensional, time-line jumping, personal growth Tarot Spread.

It's a collection of four mini-Tarot spreads.

As you fold the paper, the central cards of each mini-spread are layered on top of each other.

When you look at your life this way, it's like seeing yourself as a multi dimensional being.

I have done this spread a few clients and friends. It provides a clear path to a graceful up-level: jump from the Story you were living in, into your next adventure.

It’s time!!! We are growing. We are up graduating into our next best self.

Let’s go through each mini spread, one at a time.

1. The Story You Are Living In

The first card poses the question, “What story are you living?” What is the energy or pattern that is influencing your reality?

On either sides of that card, you are going to pick a card for, “What is the left brain doing?” - and, “What is the right brain doing?”

The right brain card is what your brain is trying to organize, analyze, or problem-solve.

The left brain card is more what you are feeling into it, or intuitively trying to understand.

Put it all together, and you have a good picture of where you are right now:

(1) What story are you living in?

(2) What is your brain trying to problem solve logically with the left brain?

(3) What are you intuitively picking up through your right brain?

2. The Lesson

The central card asks, (4) “What lesson are you going through?” And, below it, (5) “What are you breaking free from?”

I choose to believe that our souls come to Earth for the learning. We are here to experience the mortality, pleasure, and find our way to love.

“What lesson are you going through,” is just the prerequisite for everything else. And, until you figure out this lesson, you can't move on. Because, you are tied to something (the bottom card) that needs to be released.

Isn't it interesting that when you fold the paper, the lesson card is right on top of the “Story" card from the first spread. Together they give you some rich information, perhaps enough insight to break free from the, “This is happening TO me narrative,” and into “This is happening FOR me”

3. The Upgrade

This is where you are headed! All the lesson learning and breaking free is so you can (6) upgrade to this next, new, best version of yourself.

The next three cards reveal where you are headed, and why. (7) “What information is your soul receiving?” - These are messages and impulses coming from the Earth and your body. (8) “What information is your spirit receiving?” - These are messages and impulses from your consciousness and Source/Cosmos.

Card (9), illuminates where your Upgraded self wants to do next, based upon the messages coming from Soul & Spirit. How do you want to show up in the world? What challenge or experience is your soul excited to do?

4. Lean Into Joy, Meaning, and Power

The final mini-spread illuminates where to focus your energy.

In the middle is (11) “Meaning” because humans are meaning makers. This “Meaning” card is on top of the “Upgrade” card, the “Lesson" card, and the “Story” card.

You have transformed from whatever story you were living in (perhaps being the victim to), clarified your lesson so that you can jump into your upgrade, and experience the meaning of your life.

Your joy, your meaning and your power. are the clues to living your most magical life. (10) What lights you up? What are you curious about? That's your joy. (11) Your meaning is what you sense your purpose is right now. (12) Where is your power?
