Sage Spread: Communication
The Sage Archetype is about relating and communicating effectively. This layout is useful to consider how you craft a message. Not everyone receives information or a communique in the same fashion or through the same senses.
When using this Spread you are being prompted to consider the real content - vital and germane ideas or instructions; and its context i.e. within the situation and who the person is that you are delivering it too. Communication is a two way exchange not simply a pronouncement of your Will. Yet even a demand can be made effectively when worded and delivered with precision.
- Card 1. Message - The real communication/meaning you are trying to convey. Is this consistent with the words or actions your are employing?
- Card 2. Receiver - Who is the audience or person you are trying to reach?
- Card 3. Tone - How is the message best delivered? Spoken, written, or by actions?
- Card 4. Misunderstanding. The quality or belief that is most likely to distort your intentions. Theirs or yours.
- Card 5. How you will be received. The quality of the outcome. If a Shadow pole is posted, their is a possibility you are deluded in what you are saying or that the listener has preconceived notions that block it.
