The meaning of the cards will depend on what kind of reading you are doing and the question you asked the deck. This is a guide covering the general meanings of the cards and how they relate to each other.

Common 2-card spreads

Whilst it’s great to know who these two cards interact with each other, it’s important to note that the meaning will depend on the context of your spread

The most common 2 card spreads I recommend to newer readers are:

  • The 2 card cross (otherwise known as “The Fool’s Journey”)
  • The 2 card “Yes or No”

“The Fool’s Journey”

Setup: The two card cross is where you place two cards face up, one placed vertically and with one laying horizontally over

Interpretation: The 2 cards represent a “situation” and a “challenge”. The first card will describe the situation you are in with the second horizontal card being the “challenge” crossing you (literally crossing you in this case!)

Reading: Using the overviews in this guide is a great way to start. First, look at the meanings of the 2 cards, and see how they might relate either as your “situation” or “challenge”. Once you have that you can look at the general overview for how the two cards interact with each other.

The benefit of this spread is that it can give clarity when you’re feeling uncertain or anxious. Once you have clarity of thought, and a strong idea of what your challenge is you can find solutions to help your situation

The 2 card “Yes or No”

Setup: The 2 card “Yes or No” is where you place two cards face up side by side, whilst asking your deck a “yes or no” question.

Interpretation: Each card in a tarot deck has a “yes” or a “no” meaning. Look at the meanings of each card, and you will have your answer.

The benefit of this is you get a stronger yes or no compared to a single card draw. You may find you often get a mix of “yes or no”, and this is fine. It simply means there is doubt, or things are not yet clear.

Yes or No meaning

Both Death and 10 Of Wands mean “No”. If you are asking a direct question, then be under no illusions, the answer is a negative one. If you draw Death and 10 Of Wands the answer to your question is “NO”.

The “Yes” and “No” meanings can differ from reader to reader. The meanings here are based on what I believe are the generally accepted definitions.

What does Death mean?

Health:

The Death Tarot card can mean a major transition in health for an individual. This transition may involve moving beyond an unhealthy lifestyle and habits and taking a new approach to health and wellness. This could mean quitting smoking, changing diets, and exercising more. It could also mean a major surgery or life-altering illness that marks a dramatic shift in a person’s overall health. The Death Tarot card can suggest that a difficult period of transition and transformation is necessary in order to reach improved health and wellness.

Finances:

The Death Tarot card can suggest a period of endings and new beginnings in the realm of finances. This could be a sign that it is time to move on from a job or career that is no longer rewarding and that new opportunities lie ahead. It could also mean making drastic changes to one’s financial outlook such as adjusting spending habits, paying off debt, or even filing for bankruptcy. The card could also signify an end to one’s negative financial habits and the beginning of financial growth.

Relationships:

The Death Tarot card can signify a period of endings and new beginnings in relationships. This could be a sign that it is time to end an unhealthy and destructive relationship and move on to a healthier one. It could also signify a period of transformation in which individuals focus on improving their relationships by communicating more openly and honestly with their loved ones. The card could also be a sign of the end of a relationship and the start of a new one. Ultimately, the card suggests that it is time to move on and that a new, positive relationship awaits.
