What Is a Three Options Tarot Spread?
The Three Options Tarot Spread is a comprehensive decision-making tool that analyzes three different choices simultaneously. Using 7 cards, it explores your current state and reveals both immediate and long-term outcomes for each option.
This spread is perfect when you need to compare multiple opportunities and understand not just where each path leads, but how each journey unfolds over time.
How It Works: Analyzing Three Paths
The spread uses a structured layout to examine each option thoroughly:
Option A: short-term impact, long-term outcome
Option B: short-term impact, long-term outcome
Option C: short-term impact, long-term outcome
The first card reveals your current state and mindset, providing context for how you're approaching this decision.
This comprehensive format is ideal for career decisions, major life changes, educational paths, or any situation requiring careful consideration of multiple options.
When to Use This Spread
