Wednesday Spread: River of Story Spread, Gaian Tarot

Welcome to the Wednesday spread! This is a storytelling spread using the Gaian Tarot deck from redfeather. The deck can loosely be described as pagan or nature based, and it's been giving me some great advice so far! I'm looking forward to trying out this spread.

πŸŒ€ River of Story Spread

A spread for tracing the shape of your story - past, present, emotion, change, and the quiet truth beneath it all.

The Current – What’s moving through your life right now?
(Where am I? What’s the energy or focus surrounding me?)
Nine of Fire (Wands) Sometimes life is hard, and you need to take some time and reset. When you're feeling beaten down, this is the way to go. 


The Shore Behind – What part of the story has brought me here?
(Something recently learned, left behind, or completed.)
Three of Fire (Wands)
There's planning, and then there's jumping straight in. Both have their part to play in your journey. Both are necessary and you shouldn't allow one to drown out the other.

The Deep Water – What emotional truth lies beneath the surface?
(A hidden drive, fear, or feeling influencing the moment.)

Six of Water (Cups) We all need other people. That's not a weakness. It's a strength. Enjoy spending time with your People. They make you stronger.



The Rock in the Stream – What challenge or choice do I face?
(What’s in the way - or asking me to navigate carefully?)

Ace of Earth (Pentacles) It's easy to get caught up in the fun of new plans. It's harder to see them through. Don't let the fun of the new overshadow the fun of completion.


The Way Ahead
– What direction or story thread wants to emerge next?
(A new focus, shift, or possible outcome.)

Nine of Air (Swords) This card is about facing up to fears, dragging them into the light of day and studying them properly. When you do, you'll find they almost always fade away. Just be brave once.



The Still Pool
– What stillness or wisdom waits for me if I listen?
(A gift of clarity, reflection, or peace.)

Bindweed (Devil) The Devil entreats, seduces, confuses, but he cannot hold you if you refuse to be held. Whatever is keeping you in one spot, work your way free. Don't let yourself be contained.


🧡 Summary:
πŸ’‘ Nine of Fire – Rest and reset.
πŸ”₯ Three of Fire – Bold beginnings and wild leaps.
πŸ‘₯ Six of Water – Let your people lift you.
🌱 Ace of Earth – Follow through, not just the start.
πŸŒ’ Nine of Air – Face your fears.
🌿 Bindweed (Devil) – Free yourself from what's holding you back.

A journey from burnout to clarity, led by emotion, rooted in truth. πŸ’™
