Three Cards
The three card tarot spread is one of the oldest methods. You can get to the heart of your question with a simple three-card Tarot reading. 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.
The Star
Upright
Hope, faith, purpose, renewal, spirituality
As the Star is next card after the Tower in the Tarot, it comes as a fresh start after a time of destruction and turbulence. You have endured many challenges and freed yourself from any limiting beliefs that were previously holding you back. No matter what life sends you, you know that you are always united to the loving energy of Divine. You hold a new sense of self, new gratitude for your Essence.
The Star brings refreshed hope and a feeling that you are truly blessed by the Universe. You are entering a peaceful phase in your life with a more deep knowledge of both yourself and the people around you. This is a time of meaningful personal growth and progress as you are now ready to receive the many graces of the Universe.
With the Star card, anything is possible and the magic is moving around you. Allow yourself to dream and to aspire in any way possible so you can touch the stars.
You may also want to rediscover meaning and direction in your life. You are making some important differences in your life, transforming yourself to the new you and, in doing so, you are producing about a fresh viewpoint. This is a great spiritual journey that will renew your inner vitality.
The Star also suggests an overflowing spirit. You want to share your resources with others to help change their lives. You have an open heart, and you now want to share the blessings you gained so that other people may benefit.
Reversed
Lack of faith, despair, self-trust, disconnection
The reversed Star card can suggest that you’ve lost belief and hope. You may be feeling defeated by life’s difficulties right now and asking why you are being put through this. You may be desperately questioning the Universe to give you some release but can’t see how the Divine is on your side. Take a moment to ask yourself what life lesson is in the situation, and how this is beneficial to you but is not a punishment.
Often, the reversed Star is a test of faith. When confronted with a challenging situation, you can either disintegrate like the Tower or stand strong in your faith that the Divine is everywhere. You will also learn how to trust not only in the Universe but also in yourself. Divine flows through you, and when you have confidence in yourself, you allow the Divine to radiate through.
The Star reversed also reveals that you are uninspired with life or parts of your life (for example, work, love, projects, etc.). Perhaps you began with great enthusiasm, but you are now finding yourself overwhelmed by day-to-day routines that are dull. In career readings, this card is particularly suitable when you feel detached from the work you do and question if it’s time to make a change. Try to connect to what is truly meaningful to you again. Adjust your life with this goal, and you will find new sources of inspiration.
The reversed Star urges you to take time for nourishment on a deeply spiritual level. Your energy resources may be exhausted, so rather than forcing yourself further, make time just for you.
The Devil
Upright
Shadow self, attachment, addiction, restriction, sexuality
The Devil card symbolizes your shadow side and the negative forces that hold you back from being the best version of yourself. You may be at the effect of negative obsessions, thought patterns or addictions. You have found yourself caught between the momentary pleasure. Just as the Lovers card, Devil also speaks to duality; however, you are choosing the path of immediate satisfaction with the Devil, even if it costs your long-term health. Just like you have sold your soul to the Devil!
The Devil card often arrives when you have been thinking you have no control over your dark side, and that you can never break free from the hold of negative forces. However, deep down, you know it does harm to you, and you are doing it yourself damage when you trap into these needs with lower vibration. You need to accept the hold they have on you to break free of these negative addictions.
On the positive meaning, the Devil can also present a powerful attachment between two people, such as a new love affair still in its ‘honeymoon stage’. Be careful, because, with the Devil card, this healthy attachment could also turn into a co-dependent bond if you lose touch with your intuition.
The Devil could also signify your wild side and sexuality in a love reading. Also, it can symbolize strong chemistry and sexual attraction with your partner. You may be exploring your darkest and wildest fantasies. If you can do this within a safe space, it could be a very enriching adventure. However, it can easily turn into something that may be threatening or harmful to your being, so, set clear limits ready to go.
Reversed
Releasing limiting beliefs, exploring dark thoughts, detachment
The reversed Devil card can often be shown when you are on the boundary of a breaking point. You are being invited to your greatest potential, however, you must let go of any harmful habits or restricting beliefs that may hold you back. Let go of concerns and release any limiting beliefs standing in the way of your growth. It is easier than you think.
The reversed Devil calls on you to drop things you know are dangerous to you and your personality. It could be about creating a healthy diet, using less social media, quitting drinking and smoking, spending more time in nature, or focusing more on your purposes.
The reversed Devil may also be a warning that you are hiding your darkest self from other people as a secret. You may have thoughts or fantasies that you don’t want others to know because you feel ashamed. There is also a need to admit who you are and forgive yourself for the ideas you have.
Finally, the Devil reversed encourages you to train the detachment state, a state in which you defeat your attachment to the longing for things, people or ideas, and free yourself. It doesn’t mean you don’t care for them; you free yourself from dependency.
Three of Pentacles
Upright
Teamwork, collaboration, learning, implementation
When the Three of Pentacles card shows up in a Tarot reading, get it as a message to cooperate with other people to achieve big outcomes. Each person has an essential role to play, and when they come together as an organization, they can build something much more meaningful than if they were to begin the plan on their own.
The Three of Pentacles symbolizes the value of various views and levels of knowledge in collaboration. Even though their qualifications, experiences are very varied, they can share their perspective in a way that builds synergy and enhances the completed outcome. So, when you work on projects with other people, recognize the importance that each person delivers to the table. You will also discover from each member of the organization when you see their individual participation.
The Three of Pentacles card, like the other Threes in the Tarot, signifies the first steps of implementation that accompany the Ace‘s phase and the organizing step of the Two’s. You know what you want to build; you’ve laid out the ideas, collected your supplies, and arranged to work. Of course, you are not close to the ending yet, but you are making things proceed.
See the Three of Pentacles as a reassurance that you are on the correct path. You are skilled at what you do. Accomplishing important goals, such as constructing a magnificent church, needs accurate planning. This card, accordingly, tells you to design a complete plan and to follow your agenda.
Reversed
Disharmony, misalignment, working alone
Reversed, the Three of Pentacles implies you may be fighting with a lack of unity with your team members and it hard to finish a project together. You’re not on the same page and not appreciating each other’s ideas. If this resonates, you need to reconnect with the fundamental goals of the plan and make new arrangements about how you will operate together to accomplish those purposes. The reversal of this card can imply that you need to make well-organized energy into your job.
There may also be a lack of tolerance between company members, people may be trying to prove themselves and gain an advantage over each other.
The reversed Three of Pentacles can also point out that you are working in a comparatively ordinary job in which your participation and expertise go under-valued. There is not much possibility for growth and improvement, and you feel as if your skills are not being used. It may be the correct time to make career progress and find a company that appreciates your expertise.
Sometimes, the reversed Three of Pentacles can symbolize that you like to work alone and get the work done yourself. You may be tired of waiting for others to complete. However, if you find yourself in striving too hard, be open to seeking cooperation.
