Down the Witches Road.

Agatha All Along featured an episode heavily centered on tarot (also imo the best episode of the season), and in it they use a spread called The Safe Passage Spread. I figured I could share it here!



First card is you, the Traveller (center upright)
Second card what's missing, the reason for your quest (bottom card)
Third card the path behind: wounds suffered, lessons learned (top left)
Fourth card the path ahead: a space for growth and discovery (top right)
Fifth card you will face obstacles (left center)
Sixth card proceeding a potential windfall (right center)
Seventh card you must overcome all to Reach Your Destination (center across)

Benebell Wen also has a blog post up (thanks to headstone for the heads up ❤️). There you'll see some more pictures of the cards on the show,

There's also an official tarot deck up for pre-order. The art looks too low effort for me, but we do only have the cards seen on the show to go by atm. Anybody looking for a twist on the classic RWS will probably be happy. At least this mostly ensures the deck won't be pippish.

So, did you try this spread out?

Can we get close up shots of the art, please? I don't recognize the deck but it looks interesting from what little I can see of it.

If you look at the pre-order, you can see some of the cards clearly. They're fairly close to the classic RWS.

Benebell Wen put up a blog post last week breaking down the spread used in the show, in case anyone's interested in trying it out.
