Locate the magician card in your deck. The card above it is your hidden talents and abilities. The card below the magician represents what you need to do in order to unlock your hidden talents.
Magician spread to unlock your potential:
Take the magician card out of your deck, then shuffle the remaining cards. Draw 5 cards then place the magician with those 5 cards, shuffle them together. Lay the cards out in two rows of three cards. The row which contains the magician symbolises your talents and skills. The other row represents the steps you will need to take in order to reach your full potential.
