“Meg Jones Wall’s Tarot Spreads offers something crucial and unexpected beyond beginner books and the innumerable spreads that proliferate the internet: a balance of freedom and stability. While ‘how to read tarot’ books may tell you what the cards mean and spreads inform which questions to ask, Wall leaves those largely open to your discretion and instead digs into how and why tarot works. For many of us, especially neurodivergent folks, we need more specific operationalized guidance between ‘ask a question,’ ‘draw cards,’ and ‘interpret the meaning’ to feel secure that we know what we’re doing. This book offers exactly that, going into particular depth about what makes a good question and how, when, and why (or why not) to use a spread for a reading. For certain this is a great new intro to tarot; I think many seasoned readers will find that some unexplored or overly rigid aspects of their early learning are addressed helpfully in this book as well.”
—Lane Smith, author of 78 Acts of Liberation: Tarot to Transform Our World
