1. Energy overview

The current running through this spread stretches from a present decision → a delay in the plan → an old sadness → a fresh opening from the Ace of Pentacles → and then a pull between acting too fast and withdrawing altogether.

Make a custom reading

  1. Choose Custom in Tarot, then choose fixed card count or freeform. Fixed mode continues through card count; freeform continues to shuffle and custom draw.
  2. In freeform, drag cards into positions and tap Done to reveal them. It does not create an AI interpretation, spend points, or create a history entry; fixed mode follows its shown draw flow.
