Thrysse’s Transformational Tree of Life
This spread is laid out in the form of the tree
of life. There are three cards in a column on the left, representing
who the client is now or has recently been, and what she brings
to the transformation. There are three cards in a column on the
right which represent who she is becoming. The middle column represents
the transformational path and the life purpose. There are four cards
offset from the three on either side, to form triangles with them,
and a fifth card placed at the base of the central column. The layout
is read from the bottom up - the base card is the expression
of the transformational path in the physical world. The triangle
above this (points down) is the physical transformation, the middle
triangle above this (points down) is the intellectual transformation.
The upper triangle (points up) is the spiritual transformation,
and the central card between the upper and middle triangles is the
key to her life purpose in accomplishing the transformation. Any
reversed cards, especially in the central path, indicate areas where
special attention is needed, as these represent blocked transformational
energies.
Card 0: Key to life purpose
Card 1: Spiritual transformation
Card 2: Spiritual past/present
Card 3: Spiritual future
Card 4: Intellectual past/present
Card 5: Intellectual future
Card 6: Intellectual transformation

Cards to the left are at a time in the past that corresponds do
the time distance in the future of the cards on the right.
