The Garden Check-In: A Mid-Year Tarot Spread

The halfway point of the year feels like a natural time to pause and reflect. Instead of asking what comes next, I like to first look at what has already been growing. The season is busy, and we've been working since the beginning of the year to make progress on our goals. But this time of year also feels like it requires some extra maintenance, rather than simply expansion. 

Inspired by this month's Wheel of Fortune (our tarot-card-of-the-year) theme of cultivation and sustainability, I created this simple three-card spread to help reflect on the first half of the year.

Take a minute to think about:

What have you cultivated?
What didn't come to fruition?
What has grown, but may no longer be sustainable?

Just like a garden, not everything we've planted is meant to flourish forever. Some ideas ask for continued care, while others need to be pruned so that new growth has room to take root.

If you try this spread, I'd love to hear what came up for you.

And, if you're looking to deepen your readings, you may also enjoy 4 Tarot Reading Practices to Deepen Your Readings, where I share a few of the habits that have shaped my own tarot practice.
