Original Tarot Spread: Conflict in a Friendship
Our closest and most important friendships are those that have depth and permanence. Their strengths are in mutual trust, shared experience,
respect, and support. But sometimes it is these friendships that can confuse us the most, or give us the most challenge. Like love relationships,
friendships deserve our attention when conflicts arise. This spread deals with conflicts, whether obvious or not (an actual fight, or simply
a perceived imbalance). It determines where the conflict lies, how each person in the friendship feels, and how two people can work together
to bring a friendship back to harmony.Uses 15 cards Card One: What is the conflict?
