One of the people I have known for a few years mentioned that my tarot articles were "interesting" but that they didn't want to read about how "The Tower" will destroy me.

It broke my heart. People around tarot readers complain even when they try to be positive.

After reading about The Tower's destruction, the tarot reader wonders why they have no clients left.

The time has come for a post about tarot and sleep.

Tarot May Help With Insomnia

People always bring up the problem of not being able to sleep. Some tell me that tarot could help them sleep because they suffer from insomnia.

I once dealt with my insomnia through tarot. In addition to mental illnesses like anxiety and depression, insomnia can be a symptom of mental illnesses.

As a temporary solution, I will share some tarot spreads you can use when you have trouble sleeping.

Thereafter, readers can use tarot to conquer their sleep problems - or at least learn how to use it to help clients with this issue.

Stress often causes insomnia. Tarot can help in this situation.

Even so, tarot readings require time - sometimes, they only need to be done once, and sometimes they require hours of work.

Tarot sleep help is something we all know someone who needs.

I am going to share with you how tarot can help you sleep and how it can help you overcome insomnia.

To start, I'll discuss tarot spreads, then move on to tarot tips I've learned in my years of studying tarot.

Anyone who wants to use tarot readings and spreads to get to sleep can benefit from many tarot sleep tips.

In addition to overcoming insomnia, it can also improve your sleep. The following spread may be of interest to you.

The Good Night’s Sleep Spread

I call this tarot spread The Good Night's Sleep Spread.

There are six cards in this spread, and the top two cards represent why you are having sleep problems.

You will then find three cards in the middle that can help you end your sleep problems.

You'll then find out what may be stopping you from improving your sleep in the last card at the bottom.

When the top two cards are the Eight of Pentacles and the Nine of Swords, you are worrying too much (Nine of Swords) about your work situation (Eight of Pentacles).

Consequently, you have trouble sleeping since you can't stop worrying about work.

Having said that, what can help you get a good night's sleep?

You can resolve the sleep issue by pulling the following three cards.

The Hierophant is the first card you draw, which means you should listen to sleep experts' advice on improving your sleep hygiene.

A second card you pull is the Nine of Cups, which suggests making a gratitude list every night before bed; then, the Magician may suggest a new bedtime routine for better sleep.

What about the bottom card? If you pull the Devil, you may have an addiction that interferes with sleep.

Have you been obsessing over someone or something? Is your sugar intake, alcohol consumption, or caffeine intake excessive?

Do you have an addiction to those things? To improve your sleep, you need to look at that. You might find that tarot spread useful.

The next one might work for you if this one doesn't.

The Celtic Cross Spread

An example of a tarot spread is the Celtic Cross Spread, a 10-card spread.

Due to its lack of resonance with me, I am not particularly fond of that spread. However, it may be a good fit for some people, and that's what counts.

You can learn more about the Celtic Cross spread by clicking here.

In a tarot reading, the client can fall asleep by tarot-magically discovering what is stopping them from sleeping.

You can gain great insight when you learn how to use that spread.

If the Celtic Cross Tarot Spread does not resonate with you, there is one more spread you can try.

Three-Card Tarot Sleep Spread

Last but not least, I will share with you a simple three-card spread called "Tarot Sleep."

It is the simplest tarot spread you can find. This is the spread for you for tarot readers looking for something simple.

Your first card represents the general mood of your day, your second card represents what challenged you during the day, and your last card represents what helped you.

The past, present, and future are all represented by the same type of three-card spread.

This spread will be illustrated in the following example. Ace of Swords, your first card, indicates that you had a clear mind, which helped you with your energy levels.

The second card, however, was the Seven of Cups. So many distractions or options are presented to you, which puts your brain into overdrive.

You were challenged to do that. Temperance is the last card, and it helped you since you took time to process your thoughts but still felt unsettled, which is why you wanted to spread this before bed.

The tarot spread can help you process your thoughts to sleep better at night.

Your doctor will refer you to a sleep specialist if you still cannot sleep and maintain good sleep hygiene.

There might be another explanation. 

*** Medical disclaimer ***

As mentioned, this tarot trick is only supposed to help you sleep if you are normally able to sleep well without needed medication and any underlying condition.

Tarot is never a substitute for medicine or medical treatments. For example, if you have sleep apnea, tarot will not help you sleep.

You may need a CPAP machine, which is something to discuss with your doctor.

However, all it can do is help quiet your mind and help you reflect on why your mind is active, which can still interfere with your ability to sleep.

But that is the most it will do. If you also need sleep medication, don’t get off of your sleep medication because these tarot spreads are not there to replace them either.
