The early, middle and late month: the rhythm of the weeks ahead

History

Laying cards out over periods of time is one of tarot's oldest habits: cut a span into parts and give each part a card. This spread splits the month into its early, middle and late parts, like the ten-day periods of the traditional Chinese calendar, so you can feel the month's rhythm in advance.
