The Three-Card Tarot Spread

The 3 card Tarot spread is one of the simplest and most versatile Tarot spreads that you can use to gain insight into a situation or question. Its simple construction makes it the perfect Tarot spread for beginners.

The 3 card Tarot spread is composed of three cards, which are placed side by side and read from left to right. 

The Meanings of the card placements:

  1. The first card represents the past. This card provides understanding into the circumstances that have led to the current situation or question.
  2. The second card represents the present. This card provides understanding into the current situation or question.
  3. The third card represents the future, indicating what may happen or what action can be taken to influence the outcome.

This Tarot spread can be used to gain a broad understanding of a situation, or it can be used as a preliminary spread to gain a general oversight prior to performing a more involved spread.

If you are just starting out learning Tarot, this is the perfect beginning spread!
