Season 17 is all about seasonal tarot spreads for Autumn—cozy, reflective layouts to help you release what’s no longer needed, reconnect with your body, and plant seeds for what’s next.
In today’s episode, we’re exploring the Cauldron Tarot Spread from Worts & Cunning—a three-card ritual designed for Samhain and the thinning of the veil.
What we explore in this episode:
The Cauldron Tarot Spread from Worts & Cunning
How to work with Samhain energy between now and Yule
The power of acceptance, community, and self-care as alchemy
The Cauldron Tarot SpreadHalloween and Samhain mark the turning of the year—when the veil thins, the air sharpens, and the invitation to transform becomes irresistible.
This spread mirrors the cycle of fire, vessel, and brew—the core of all creation magic—inviting you to stir your own becoming between now and Yule.
The Prompts:
The Fire - That which inspires you and keeps you engaged with the world and your magic
The Cauldron - How your desire can be transformed into a tool to reshape your life in a way that supports your goal
The Swirling Brew - The as-yet-unknown energies that you can connect with between now and Yule to help you manifest your dream

1) The Fire - The Guide (Inheritance & Correction)
Your spark comes from setting things right. You’ve inherited stories, fears, and wounds from those who came before you, but healing is your birthright. Keep showing up for your magic, even if the lesson feels heavy. Progress comes from practice, not perfection.
2) The Cauldron - The Founder (Foundations & Community)
Transformation is rooted in connection. Build your foundations through mutual care—asking for help, offering help, and healing old stories that keep you isolated. True community is forged through honesty and rest.
3) The Swirling Brew - The Shepherd (Celebration & Family)
Between now and Yule, choose warmth over withdrawal. Reach out to your people. Host something small and joyful. Guide your flock with care and let yourself be guided too.
