Tarot cards in a spread will either fall upright or reversed. When a card is reversed either its meaning is not as strong, its tarot meaning is more extreme or an external influence has more power than you over the situation.
A majority of reversed cards in a layout warns against laziness and depending too much on others.
A majority of upright cards says you are in control-its a good time to take action.
