The Archetype Tarot Spread is inspired by the work of Carl Jung. Tarot is very much a psychological process. It allows you to tap into the hidden aspects of your personality and reveal your shadow elements.
Confronting the shadow enables spiritual growth and helps you to understand your self on a deeper level.
