When adapting tarot layouts for Vodou (Voodoo) or Hoodoo practices, the spreads shift away from simple psychological shadow work and focus heavily on ancestral wisdom, crossroads choices, and spiritual guidance from the Lwa (spirits).
Instead of looking for "evil," these layouts seek protection, clarity, and communication with the spiritual realm.
