I write regularly for Soul Path Magazine…This month the focus was on Coatlicue and change…Instead of a spread, I decided to try a meditation…I invite you to pick up a deck and come sit with me…
Get seated comfortably and hold your deck …
Take a few moments to become aware of your breath and when you feel that it has fallen into a relaxed state, start to shuffle your cards…
And whilst you shuffle, ask yourself…
Why do I want change?
Shuffle for as long as you like… whatever you feel guided to do… Then place down your cards and just write a few words to answer your question… remember… It’s not a test and this is just for you… So whatever you write, it will be the right answer for you…
Now split your deck into two roughly equal halves… wherever the deck naturally wants to part…
Now imagine two snakes and spread your cards to make the shape…
Now call in Coatlicue and ask for her guidance…
Imagine that the snake on the left…
is the old snake that needs to shed its skin…
And on the right… Is the new snake, that has grown…
In your own time pull cards from where you sense they need to come from…
Alternate from left…
to right…
As you pull from the left…ask…
What do I need to release?
Pull from the right and ask…
How can I grow to incorporate more of what I desire and deserve into my life?
I pulled myself a couple of cards from The Barbara Walker Tarot…

It’s a massive 75 pages this month themed around a mix of Coatlicue and Change…

So simple and attractive, this spread just immediately went place for me. And, the cards I drew were surprising which is good ’cause it’ll keep me interested.
Initially asking, “Why do I want change?” garnered the response in the quiet of, “to learn how to engage business more.”
Then, as I pulled from the left asking, “What do I need to release?”, moving to my own words of in my words “what is…the snake the skin shedded? What is the snake the skin not missed?” and, I drew ~ I The Magician.
And, as I pulled from the right asking, “How can I grow to incorporate more of what I desire and deserve into my life?,” I drew ~ VII The Chariot.
Screw the either/or propositions. There is an even more clear both~and heart of the matter in my alchemy in life.
Thanks, Karen!
