Rahdue’s Wheel: An Introduction
If you’ve been looking for a 78-card Tarot spread in order to use all the cards in the deck in a reading, I have the spread for you. Rahdue’s Wheel uses every single card of the Tarot. Personally, I’m unable to lay down all the cards on any surface using a regularly-sized deck, so I bought a keychain-size Tarot deck just for Rahdue’s Wheel.
This spread was first published in Tarot: Handbook for the Journeyman by Eileen Connolly, although she implied that it was around before then. Rahdue’s Wheel is meant to help the querent access past-life insight and inner wisdom. Connolly recommended Rahdue’s Wheel as an alternative to meditation for those who struggle with the practice. This reading can take several hours to get through, so I agree that you will get “in the zone” if you do it correctly.
Prior to the reading, the querent/client should write down a list of questions. They cannot go past nine. The list of questions is kept a secret from the reader until the last section of the reading, The Malkuth Block. I recommend that this be done while the reader is laying out the cards.
