The Tarot of Physics Spread

This simple five-card spread will help you deconstruct any question or problem you might have.

Read all of the cards in order. Then read through the three cards in the middle row, from right to left. Remember that the final outcome card should be seen from the querent’s point of view; it’s unique to his or her own experience.
