This spread comes from Thomas’ blog post Tarot Spread: Starting On Shadow Work. Although I slightly changed the question for card #1, I found this spread to be very insightful and helpful in beginning my journey towards healing. Our shadows never go away. Or, they do for a time, and then pop back up in a different manifestation just when you think you’re over it. Our shadows are made up of multiple things, and that’s what’s so great about this spread; you can keep coming back to it, again and again (when you’re ready), and learn about the different parts of your shadow.
