Astrology-Inspired Tarot Spreads: Aligning Cards with Planetary Transits
Jan 17, 2025 10:02 AM

Astrology and tarot are two things people go to whenever they want answers they can't get by acquired means, when they want to spend time reflecting on themselves. By combining them, you can create tarot spreads tailored to current planetary transits and find deeper knowledge on where to look for what within yourself.

Planetary transits refer to the current movement of planets through the zodiac and their interaction with your natal chart. These transits highlight themes, challenges, or opportunities in different areas of your life. For example, a Venus transit might focus on relationships or self-worth, while a Mars transit might emphasise action and motivation.

While astrology helps you understand the "what" and "where" of the energy influencing you, tarot provides the "how." It offers specific advice or steps to navigate the themes of a transit. Combining the two will give you a clear and actionable path forward.

Design your spread to reflect the transit. For example, during a Mercury retrograde, you might use a spread like this:

  • Current Communication Block: What’s creating misunderstandings
  • How to Improve Communication: What approach will help resolve issues
  • Lesson of the Retrograde: What can I learn from this period
  • For a Saturn return, the spread might include:

  • Life Area Under Focus: What part of my life needs structure or discipline
  • Obstacle: What’s holding me back from progress
  • Next Step: How can I grow through this challenge
  • Draw the cards and interpret them based on the qualities of the planetary transit. For example, if you pull The Hermit during a Neptune transit, it might suggest self-reflection and spiritual growth.

    In this way, by analysing tarot spreads with astrology, you create a person guide for navigating planetary influences, combining the wisdom of the stars and the cards.
