How to use this spread
Write one open-ended question and a clear time frame. Lay the first six cards as the central cross, then cards seven through ten upward as the staff. Read the centre first, then the surrounding influences, and finish by comparing hopes with the possible direction. Treat the final card as a trajectory under present conditions, not a guaranteed outcome.
