The Metamorphosis of Narcissus: A Tarot Spread for Healing

A tarot spread designed with the Narcissistic dynamic in mind. Empaths are notorious for attracting these types of relationships. Their gentle, sensitive and giving nature makes them an easy target for the deeply wounded spirit that often lies at the heart of the people they attract.

Card 1: What attracted me?

This gives the dynamic within the querant that has attracted the relationship in the first place. This may not be an appealing aspect and may bring up difficult energy or unresolved issues from the past. This is “why” the relationship happened. 

Card 2: Where was I blind?

This gives the aspect of the relationship that “made it all worthwhile” This is what fed the relationship, and is probably what the client finds it hardest to let go of. 

Card 3: What did I gain?

This card will represent a challenge to the client, for it suggests the “lesson” within the experience, something that may not resonate initially, but will be clarified in the future. 

Card 4: What still binds me?

This card represents a pattern within the client that is likely to still be in operation. This, along with card number 1 is what they will have to work with in the future in order to avoid a similar thing happening again. 

Card 5: How can I cut free?

This is the energy that the client will have to employ, an aspect that needs greater expression so as to avoid this type of relationship in the future. This may actually be what they initially found most attractive in their partner.

In addition, you may also draw a further three cards for healing:

Card 6: The current focus

Card 7: How to approach this

Card 8: How to keep on track
