What does the choice spread quiz test?
This quiz is about the spread for choosing between two options, five cards that lay two paths side by side. You will check what the situation card shows, how to read each pair of 'path and where it leads', and what it means when both branches look alike or both look hard.
The spread does not name a right answer. It helps you see where there is more life and where there is more fear or habit, so the decision becomes a conscious one. The questions reinforce that view: the cards help you choose, they do not choose for you.
If the result stings, that is a clue as well. Repeating the spread on the same fork rarely helps: the second answer tends to reflect disappointment more than the question. It is more useful to ask which option you secretly hoped to see.
How the two paths are built
The first card names the real stake: a choice between jobs often turns out to be a choice between safety and growth. Then come two symmetrical pairs. In each, the first card shows how the path feels today, and the second where it leads a few months on.
It helps to name the paths in advance: path A is what you have now, path B is the change. With more than two options, keep the two most alive. When you need to weigh a single step instead, the separate Should I… spread with its for, against and advice cards fits better.
Suits in the path positions give hints too. Wands speak of movement and excitement, Pentacles of reliability, Swords of doubts you would carry along. When both path cards share a suit, the difference between the options is smaller than it seems.
Rules
You get five questions out of twelve per round, with shuffled options. No changing answers, but you can start over any time. Keys go only to a perfect round: the first one earns five bronze keys.

Right answer: What is really at stake
A choice between jobs often turns out to be safety versus growth: the first card names the real stake.
3. The choice spread names the one right option.

5. Which card in Path A speaks of movement and excitement?
Right answer: Knight of Wands
In a path slot Wands mean drive and excitement, Pentacles reliability, Swords doubts you would carry along.
6. How do you decide which path is A and which is B?
Right answer: In advance, and keep it
Decide before you choose cards and do not switch later. Handy rule: A is what you have now, B is the change.
7. A path opens with a bright card but leads to a heavy one. How to read it?
Right answer: It needs a condition or care
A bright start with a heavy outcome means the path needs a condition or caution. Read the two together.
8. How many options can the choice spread compare?
Right answer: Exactly two
Its symmetry is built for two paths. With three options, read the two strongest or ask Should I… about each.
9. A Major Arcana lands in Where B leads. What does it say?
Right answer: A notable change
In a path's outcome slot a Major Arcana means a notable change; a minor card a calm, everyday continuation.
10. Both branches look hard. Where do you look first?
Right answer: The situation card
It may be two ways of living through one difficulty. The first card often shows what gets in the way either way.
11. If both branches are bright, the spread gave no answer.
Right answer: Myth
That is an answer too: there is nothing to lose here, so you can follow your heart.
12. Which spread fits a question about just one option?
Right answer: Should I…
Should I… weighs one step with cards for, against and advice, instead of comparing two paths.
