When to use this spread
One card for each life area according to the astrological houses — a broad overview of the whole map rather than one focused question.
Why this spread
When it is not even clear what to ask about, the astrological houses offer a ready map: a card for every area of life, from identity to career, from home to relationships. The spread scans everything and shows where this year's focus is, which makes it right for the moment when everything feels relevant and nothing feels urgent.
