Card Three: Negatives of My Path
There are positives and negatives to all the decisions we make. You may feel confident about your path in life and the journey you are on, but it is essential to be aware of any negatives of this path.
The third card will reveal any negatives of your path. It will typically show you any challenges that you will face if you carry on with this journey. Remember, we all face challenges, and they allow us to grow. Are you able to overcome the negatives of your path?
Card Four: What to Change
Sometimes, we are on the right path, but little things need to change. The fourth card pulled in this reading represents any changes you need to make to embrace your path in life fully.
Watch out for major arcana cards in this position. As these cards signify big changes and life events, they may reveal that you are not on the right path.

The last card pulled in this spread reflects your future. It shows you where your journey is going if you continue on your current path.
This is a pretty important card in this spread, so make sure you spend time meditating on the meaning of this card. Is it positive? Do you relate to the card?
If this card represents something, you do not relate to, reflect on the advice given in the previous cards. What changes do you need to make to get on the right path in life?
Ask the Tarot: Am I Making the Right Choices?
Our path in life is connected to the decisions we make. Sometimes, we begin to make the wrong choices and move away from our true path. We can check in with the Tarot regarding the choices we make by simply asking the cards, ‘am I making the right choices?’
Draw one card and see if you can get a yes or no answer. If you get a no card, you may also wish to draw a few more cards to get clarity and advice. These will shed light on the choices you are making and why they might not be good for you.
Living with Uncertainty Tarot Spread
The three-card reading is also an option if you want a quick and simple spread. This gives an accurate answer, but I’ll leave it to you to decide how deep you want to go on your journey.
You can extend this reading to four cards with an additional qualifying card, but if it isn’t painting a clear path for you, I’d suggest taking the time with the complete spread.
