People have been turning to the wisdom of the Tarot to help them navigate their love lives and relationships since the first person started slinging cards. In fact, it’s the number one reason people seek me out for readings.
Relationship readings can tell us so much about ourselves and are also a great opportunity for personal growth. We can discover our baggage, expectations, and core beliefs and examine whether they are hurting our relationships and allow us to begin healing.
They also can provide us with many opportunities with our partners. Even if your partner doesn’t believe in the Tarot, when you use it as a tool for self reflection, you can use what you have learned to spark important conversations. If they aren’t open to it, you don’t have to tell them your learnings came from the Tarot.
How to Use These Relationship Spreads
I’ve put together five relationship spreads that you can use at any stage of your life. In case you didn’t already know, I have also created The Modern Love Tarot deck specifically for love readings. However, it’s not required, any Tarot or Oracle deck can be used.
Use the following spreads to get guidance and advice from the tarot about your relationships and to spark further introspection about who you want to be as a partner and what you expect from a partner.
5 Card Future Relationship Tarot Spread
Maybe you haven’t found anyone you want to be in a relationship with yet, but you’re definitely ready for love. This is a 5-card tarot relationship spread to get clear about what kind of relationship you’re looking for and set yourself up to receive exactly what you are looking for.
3 Card New Relationship Tarot Spread
New relationships are so exciting! The air is full of potential (and pheromones). As you start to get to know each other you’ll be wondering, “Moving forward, is this relationship really the best use of my time?”
This 3-card tarot relationship spread to gain some clarity about the potential opportunities and pitfalls of this new love.
7 Card Breakup Tarot Spread
Whether you choose to end the relationship and you’re happy (or relieved) or were on the receiving end of the split, break ups definitely shake life up. Your Tarot deck is your perfect companion during this time, it’s ready to get into it and help heal your heart. You got this! So grab some tissues, and a hot cup of tea and get ready to move forward for the best.
10 Card Compatibility Tarot Spread
The success of any relationship relies on your ability to work through tough situations together while creating a shared life that fulfills both of your needs.
For this spread, you’ll pull 2 cards for each of the 5 questions – one to represent yourself and the other to represent your partner. Use this spread as a conversation starter to gain insight and learn how, together, using your own individual strengths, you can craft and live the sort of life you both want.
3 Card Relationship Advice Tarot Spread
This is a great spread to use when you’re butting heads with your partner. Use it to get to the bottom of the matter and find your way back to connection. I suggest doing this reading together so you can talk about what you see in the cards and get a better understanding of each other’s points of view…but sometimes it can be best to retreat to individual corners until cooler heads prevail.
How to answer specific relationship questions with the Tarot
If the Tarot spreads I’ve created don’t answer your specific questions for your relationship, you can modify them or create your own spreads.
A great starting point is a simple card spread:
