Crafting Amazing 3 Card Readings

Hi there!

Here is your little "cheat sheet" for your 3 card spread:

Question : What are they really asking in a concise sort of way?
Sub-Questions: What other questions might you be hearing below the main one to look at later?

• The Psychic - watch your eyes, don't interpret, look between the cards
• The Dynamic - colors, movement, direction
• The Categorical - majors vs. minors, suits, court cards
• The Traditional - traditional meanings
• The Tone - tone of voice, volume
• The Missing - what's not there or withheld?
• The Emphasis - why this particular part of the story vs. others?
• The Irrelevant - what is not being answered, why might that be?
• The Delivery - what an you surmise about the querent based on the reading?
• The Follow Up - anything become clear, any missing piece now showing up after passing over and over?

​​Here's the link to the PowerPoint for today.

Morphic Readings 

Step By Step –

1. Cards shuffled and spread
2. Intake, question given – group knows it activates field
3. Querent chooses the role for each spread position
4. Asks permission and the reader chooses a reading, doesn’t look at it, then finds a place in the field that feels right to them.
5. Q&A of all roles, moving the spread until it finds resolution in some way
6. Closing the reading: Each reader brings their card to the querent who will replace the card into the main deck and shuffle. Also, thanking each reader for their participation. And each reader thanks the querent for the gift of their field.

Sample Questions for the Facilitator to ask the Readers:
​

• How do you feel as this position and card? What is coming up in your body or mind?
• How does it make you feel, querent, to hear the reader speak about this?
• Observing physical and body language of the readers
• Is anything missing?
• Should there be more to add here?
• What happens when?
• Who should?
• Who else can?
• What happens when you ask for advice from this position?
• What feels open/tense?
• Querent check in with your body – how are you feeling, now?
