This in-depth eight-card layout shows various aspects of your personal journey. It is good for exploring generalised personal questions, but can also be used to explore relationships if the couple is viewed as a whole.
This layout progresses through eight stages similar to the tarot deck's Major Arcana, beginning with birth and the realm of fertility. After birth comes the initial growth which leads to a period of adaptation, change, and re-balancing oneself. Once the process has grown enough, security comes into focus, as it is necessary to protect what has been earned. After this, once again growth is important, but concerning the mind and creativitity this time, leading to another phase of personal changes. Finally upon completion of the journey, the rewards become evident, and beyond that, one's spiritual development level will have noticeably risen.

This tile is about sharing. You may meet or know someone who could benefit from your experience. This does not suggest offering unsolicited advice, but simply being willing to share. Your knowledge could be a lifesaver for someone even if you have no idea it could be.
Be wary of biting off more than you can chew. It may not be wrong to desire more, but you will need to do some personal growth before you will be able to reach your goals. Do not let this stop you. If it's worth doing, it's worth doing the right way.
Opportunity for material gain is on the horizon. Be alert and you will see it coming and be able to make the most of it. Also, be careful to not necessarily take the first opportunity at the expense of a better offer. You'll have to think like a business person.
It is a great time to pursue new ventures. Partnerships with like-minded people are favoured. The combination of energies drives the group to achieve impressive things. Sometimes these possibilities can get a little wild, so you'll have to weigh the risks vs rewards.
Do not think only of yourself. No one is an island, and the decisions you make in life will leave a wake behind you. Be considerate of the potential of both harm and gain that could come from your actions. Realise that when you harm others, you ultimately harm yourself. Be your best self.
New opportunities open for you in the realm of relationships. Maybe you will make a new friend. Perhaps there will be opportunity to take a relationship to the next level. Remember to be considerate of all involved. Consider all possibilities and weigh the risks.
Passion can be a weakness, but it can also be a source of great strength. Do not hold back your emotions. They will drive you to great things on your life's path. As always, remember to be kind to others as much as you value yourself.
That which has confused you will soon become clear. Your ability to think lucidly is at or near its zenith. Solutions to lingering problems will soon be obvious to you.
