Doing one reading and calling it good is not the best way to approach deity identification. This spread may give you an answer but it is up to you to dig deeper into those answers. Research the deity you feel is reaching out. Look into their signs, symbols, and traits. Do not stop at one tarot reading just because you got your answer. Often, this answer is only the beginning. As stated above, if a deity reaches out to you and you have no knowledge of who they are, you will need to identify who they are. This is especially important if you plan on working with the deity and accepting their presence in your life. Identifying a deity is not always easy, though. It involves the use of intuition, something that must be developed by the witch to be effective.
