Alright, let’s talk about this… this past, present, future tarot spread thing, you know? Folks call it a 3-card spread, fancy like. But don’t you go gettin’ all confused now, it ain’t rocket science.

So, what’s it all about? Well, it’s like lookin’ at your life, see? Where you been, where you at now, and where you’re headed. Like lookin’ at a road, you got the part behind ya, the part you’re standin’ on, and the part stretchin’ out in front. Simple as that.
The first card, that’s your past. It ain’t about diggin’ up every little thing you ever done, mind you. It’s about the stuff that still matters, the stuff that’s got a grip on ya today. Maybe it’s somethin’ you learned, or somethin’ you’re still carryin’ around. Like that time I baked a cake and forgot the sugar – still laugh about it, but it taught me to pay attention, you see?
Then comes the second card, the present. That’s right where you’re sittin’, right now. What’s goin’ on in your life? What you’re feelin’, what you’re thinkin’. It’s like lookin’ in the mirror, but instead of seein’ your wrinkles, you seein’ your worries and your joys, your troubles and your triumphs.
- What’s on your mind?
- What’s weighing heavy on your heart?
- What’s making you smile?
That second card, it’s a snapshot of you, right here, right now.
And last, but not least, you got the future card. Now, hold your horses, this ain’t no crystal ball, I tell ya. It ain’t sayin’ you gonna win the lottery or meet a tall, dark stranger. It’s more like a weather forecast. It tells you what kind of weather you might be headin’ into – sunny skies, stormy clouds, or maybe just a bit of drizzle.
It’s a possibility, you understand? Not a guarantee. Like, if that card shows dark clouds, maybe you gotta prepare for a storm. Maybe you gotta tighten the hatches and batten down the hatches, as they say. But if it shows sunshine, well, you can go ahead and plan that picnic. But even then, remember, the weather can change.
This whole tarot spread thing, it’s about guidance. It’s like havin’ a wise old friend whisperin’ in your ear, pointin’ things out you mighta missed. It ain’t gonna make your decisions for ya, but it can help you see things clearer.
It helps you understand yourself better. Why you do the things you do, why you feel the things you feel. It’s like lookin’ at a map of your soul, seein’ all the roads you’ve traveled and the roads you might take.
But remember, you’re the one holdin’ the wheel. You’re the one steerin’ the ship. The cards, they just show you the map. It’s up to you to decide which way to go.
And don’t you go gettin’ all obsessed with it, now. It ain’t healthy to be constantly lookin’ at the cards, tryin’ to figure out every little thing. Life ain’t meant to be lived that way. You gotta trust your gut, listen to your heart, and use your own good common sense. The cards are there to help, not to control you.

So, there you have it. The past, present, future tarot spread. It’s a tool, nothin’ more, nothin’ less. A tool to help you understand yourself and your life a little bit better. Use it wisely, and it can be a powerful thing. But don’t you go thinkin’ it’s gonna solve all your problems. Life’s still life, and you still gotta live it, one day at a time.
And remember, just like baking a cake, even if you mess up a little, you can always try again. Life’s like that, full of second chances. Just keep your eyes open, your heart strong, and your head screwed on straight, and you’ll do just fine.
Past, present, future… it’s all connected, you see? Like a chain. And understanding that chain, well, that’s the key to understanding yourself. And ain’t that what life’s all about, in the end?
And one more thing, if the cards tell you something you don’t like, don’t you go freakin’ out. Just take a deep breath, and remember you got the power to change things. The future ain’t set in stone, not by a long shot.
So go on, give it a try. Shuffle those cards, lay them out, and see what they have to say. But most importantly, listen to your own inner voice. That’s the voice that truly matters.
