When you choose 3 cards..

Hi all I was just practicing tarots and I asked my friend to spread for me and read for me

I chose 3 cards and I generally take 1st card as PAST
2nd PRESENT
3rd FUTURE

We read the cards, she was practicing on me

And suddenly both of us said "Wrong order, this should be past and not future"

My friend is very intuitive and she said 1st card I picked shows more of future
And future card looked like my immediate past

So she read in this order
1st -future
2nd - present
3rd - past

Is that possible?

You can read it any way you want too as long as you feel comfortable and it makes sense to you.

With divination its whatever feels right and few people do it the same exact way. I, personally, never read backwards from future to past, but I also never felt the need to shift the cards. What I recommend is you write both out and wait to see which is accurate for future reference

Most of the time, I feel that when I do three-card readings, past, present, and future seem inconsequential. What I do is just pick three cards for future. I discovered this when I did a reading for a girl and she then asked me to redo the reading. The EXACT SAME CARDS came up, just with the first two cards switched. Then again, in divination it is often productive to work with what feels best and works for you.
