Monthly Tarot Spread

Choosing the month

Select the month, year and timezone you want to explore. The planetary positions shown in the Live Planetary Climate panel are calculated for that selected period.

You can use the spread for the current month or choose another month to look ahead, revisit a previous period or compare different monthly cycles.

Using a question

You can enter a question about the month or leave the field open for a complete monthly reading. A focused question is useful when you want to explore one area such as relationships, work, decisions, direction, personal growth or a situation that may develop during the month.

If you leave the question open, the reading looks at the month as a whole and connects the strongest themes across the eight cards and planetary climate.

The eight-card wheel

The eight cards are arranged around the month rather than in one straight line. This lets the reading show movement around the full cycle of the month.

Follow the numbered positions in order. Each card adds another part of the monthly story, and the complete meaning comes from how all eight positions relate to one another.

The four weekly phases

The center of the spread divides the month into Week 1, Week 2, Week 3 and Week 4. These labels help you place the cards within the changing rhythm of the month.

When reading the spread, notice whether one part of the wheel seems especially active, difficult, supportive or repeated. That can show where the strongest movement of the month is concentrated.

The beginning of the month

The opening part of the spread shows the tone entering the month: what is beginning, what is already present and what may need early attention.

Compare the opening cards with the Month Start planetary snapshot. Repeated themes between the cards and the sky can make an area of the reading more important.

The middle of the month

The middle positions show how the month develops after the opening tone has been established. This is where adjustments, choices, opportunities or pressure can become more visible.

Use the Week 2 and Week 3 planetary tabs to compare how the sky changes around the middle of the selected month.

The end of the month

The later cards show what the month may be building toward, what can become clearer by the end of the cycle and what may continue into the following month.

Compare these cards with the Week 4 and Month End planetary snapshots to see how the final part of the month differs from the beginning.

Live Planetary Climate

The planetary panel shows the calculated zodiac positions of the planets for several points across the month: Month Start, Week 1, Week 2, Week 3, Week 4 and Month End.

Select any of these tabs to see how the planetary positions change. This gives the Tarot reading a real-time monthly sky context rather than using one fixed planetary snapshot for the entire month.

Planet signs and degrees

Each planet is displayed with its zodiac sign and degree for the selected monthly snapshot. These positions let you see which parts of the zodiac are active during different stages of the month.

You do not need to interpret every planet separately. The complete reading brings the most relevant planetary patterns together with the eight Tarot cards.

Upright and reversed cards

Cards may appear upright or reversed. An upright card often shows a quality that can be expressed more directly. A reversed card can show delay, internalization, resistance, imbalance or a need to approach that theme differently.

A reversed card is not automatically negative. Its meaning depends on its position in the monthly wheel and the cards around it.

How to move around the wheel

Use the zoom controls to inspect the monthly wheel more closely. On desktop, zoom in and drag the spread. On mobile, use two fingers to zoom and move while one finger continues to scroll the page.

Use Reset whenever you want to return to the full centered view of the month.

What to pay attention to

• Notice which suits or Major Arcana appear repeatedly.
• Look for repeated themes between the beginning and end of the month.
• Compare difficult cards with supportive cards in later positions.
• Notice whether several reversed cards appear in the same part of the wheel.
• Compare the Tarot pattern with changes in the planetary timeline.
• Pay attention to themes that repeat across more than one week.
