In this spread, there are three different positions which can be changed by to your preference, Past – Present – Future (or Situation – Action – Outcome, Situation – Obstacle – Advice and etc.).
The meaning of the card you choose varies according to it’s position.
This opening provides a GENERAL perspective to the period you are in. Or you can evaluate the comments in the frame of your question.
Three of Wands
Upright
Progress, expansion, foresight, overseas opportunities
The Three of Wands reveal that your plans are now initiated and you are examining even more chances to develop your current strategy. Everything is progressing firmly and as expected, thanks to your solid construction and ambition.
The Three of Wands indicates the many opportunities possible for you to expand your horizons through study, travel or business project. You are becoming more aware of the possibilities that exist for you right now. To take benefit of this potential, you must stay dedicated to your route and be adjusted to reach beyond your comfort zone, knowing your best hopes lie outside of your current environment.
The Three of Wands also brings your awareness to the difficulties that lie ahead. You are likely to be already conscious of the expected obstacles and can prepare for them ahead of time like the man in this card can see far away into the distance.
The Three of Wands could also point to travel, especially across the water. It inspires you to be courageous and endeavor to unknown places to explore more and learn many new things along the way. You may also explore worldwide business opportunities.
In a love reading, The Three of Wands hints that your relationship is heading to its next stage. If you’re in a more committed relationship, this can be a great moment to set view of your purposes as a couple and work together to reach those purposes.
Reversed
Playing small, lack of foresight, unexpected delays
The Reversed Three of Wands suggests that growth is possible for you, but you are choosing to play it safe. As a result, you are blocking yourself off from new possibilities by limiting your potential.
The Reversed Three of Wands shows that you have tried to start on your journey of individual development but did not fulfill your goals. Unexpected obstacles or blockages might have risen up on your path. There is a disappointment and you feel that you may have just misused your time by even beginning on this path. However, these setbacks are a necessary part of your life journey.
You may also struggle to put your plans into motion. It’s possible that you did not sufficiently plan for the difficulties on your path, or you were unrealistic about the dangers connected with your plans.
Four of Pentacles
Upright
Saving money, security, conservatism, scarcity, control
The Four of Pentacles invites you to examine your connection with money. Are you saving money wisely while still enjoying your daily life? Or are you hopelessly sticking to every coin, scared to spend your money for fear that you do no could lose it forever?
In its most positive outlook, the Four of Pentacles implies that you have created abundance by maintaining a constant focus on your aims and working conservatively. You are mindful of your financial security, saving money and following your payments.
However, the Four of Pentacles typically characterize an insufficiency mindset, particularly with material properties. You are choosing to stock your investments, for worry you might miss it all. Money works best when it can transfer and exchange, not when it is being stockpiled. Try to find a healthy equilibrium between spending and saving, so you can experience the outcomes of your work but also save up.
The Four of Pentacles can also imply that you are putting too much value on material dependencies. You may be connected to physical things, allowing properties to become an important part of your life.
Beyond money and abundance, the Four of Pentacles appears when you are searching for more power in your life. You may be overly defensive so no one else threatens your relationship. On a private level, you may have a rigid approach and oppose change. Any idea of doing things creatively is, therefore, going to be met with opposition. So, staying in a comfort zone may be the way to go rather than taking any dangers at this point.
Reversed
Over-spending, greed, self-protection
The reversed Four of Pentacles can show up when you are estimating what’s essential to you, particularly when it comes to money and property. You may have placed too much importance on physical possessions and have now come to the understanding that they won’t make you fortunate. As a result, you may be releasing your hold on the need to surround yourself with ‘stuff’, and will be searching out more love and joy in your life.
The reversed Four of Pentacles can symbolize that money is slipping out of your hands and your spending amounts pass your saving habits.
Sometimes, the reversed Four of Pentacles can imply that you developed a greedy approach to money. You want more and more continuously. Look at the overall comparison of the cost versus profit, and evaluate whether your search for ‘more’ is actually bringing you the peace that you most crave.
Finally, the Four of Pentacles can appear in a Tarot reading when you are in a very protective mood. You seek safety, endurance and you are doing everything within your authority to create a solid environment for yourself.
Hermit
Upright
Soul-searching, introspection, being alone, inner guidance
When The Hermit card appears it is time for drawing your energy and attention inward and finding the answers deep within your soul by taking a break from everyday life. You understand that your most intense sense of truth and the most valuable knowledge is within yourself. You leave behind the earthly issues to set off on a spiritual journey. Now is the perfect time to go to a place where you can get closer to your authentic self and observe personal purposes and principles.
The Hermit calls you to go into your inner world and encounter a deep sense of solitude and meditation. When you allow yourself to harmonize into your inner light, you will discover the answers you need inside your heart and become wiser. Find the light shining in your soul and you can create your unique path now.
The Hermit often arrives when you are at a crucial period in your life and considering a new direction. After looking at your soul with a deeper, more spiritual understanding, your priorities could shift as a consequence.
Finally, the Hermit may be shown in your life as a spiritual teacher to help you raise your vibration and develop your consciousness. He will guide you on finding your answers and solutions within you.
Reversed
Isolation, loneliness, withdrawal
The reversed Hermit can show one of two situations: you are not taking enough time for personal observation, or you are taking too much. The Reversed Hermit encourages you to create more space to meditate and spend time with yourself if you struggle to know your spirituality. It may be time to go inward and rediscover your greater mission on this planet. You may have been so busy dealing with the daily concerns. So you have forgotten to listen to your inner sound.
If you have already been spending a lot of time contemplating on your inner world, then the reversed Hermit may urge that you may be taking this isolation thing too far. Are you literally becoming a hermit and cutting yourself off from the external world? Do not underestimate the importance of staying united with other people, even while you are going through your spiritual journey.
