101 Daily Tarot Spreads for Your Daily Practice

Most experienced Tarot readers agree: developing a daily habit of reading the Tarot is not only the best way to learn the Tarot but also a fantastic way of turning your Tarot practice into a spiritual practice. Even if you take a secular approach to the Tarot, a daily Tarot ritual is so important for deepening your relationship to the cards. To that end, daily Tarot spreads can be useful for keeping your daily practice fresh and relevant to your everyday life.

In this post, you will find 101 daily Tarot spreads that can be used on a daily basis to give insight into how your day might go as well as provide a structure for reflecting on how it went, as well as lessons learned.

Set and Setting

Getting the most out of daily Tarot spreads requires two things: (1) proper set and (2) proper setting.

Your “set” is the mental state you are in when you do your reading. Are you relaxed? Anxious? Angry? Fearful? Sad? All these things will impact your daily Tarot practice.

While, of course, it’s unreasonable to ask that anyone free themselves of all emotions, bringing a level of intentionality and reflectiveness to your daily reading is important for getting your mind properly primed for intuition.

This process of intentionality can be facilitated through meditation or simply sitting upright and taking a few deep breaths. Doing so will calm your mind and prepare your faculties of introspection to be ready for Tarot reading.

Your “setting” is your environment. To the extent you can do your readings in a clean and calm environment, the better. Now, everyone has different definitions of what counts as “clean and calm” so this will be relative to the individual. But ideally, you want to do your daily Tarot reading in a manner that is sufficiently conducive for reflection.

Silence your phone if you can. Don’t try to multitask. Make the daily reading your primary focus and bring intentionality into the process. The more intentionality you bring, the more you will get out of it.

Card of the Day

Sometimes the best daily Tarot spread is not a spread at all but just a generic “Card of the Day.” With the card of the day, the point isn’t necessarily to ask a particular question of the Tarot, or to set a particular intention. Rather, the card of the day sets the entire tone or theme of the day, upon which you can reflect on throughout the day.

If you have a Tarot journal, pulling a card of the day in the morning can help you look back later that evening to see how the card of the day matched up to how the day went. “Checking” the pull like this can in a sense hone or tune your intuition such that you get better at seeing how your day might unfold from your daily card of the day.

There is no right or wrong way to interpret a Card of the Day. It’s usually a good practice to use a combination of both traditional meanings and your own intuition. The traditional meaning gives you a foundation but your own gut reaction to the card gives it personal relevance.

However, if doing these generic one-card pulls is not giving you enough structure, I have created 101 daily Tarot spreads for your convenience.
