This is the first spread I created when I returned to the full-time pursuit of tarot and other esoteric studies upon retirement in 2010. I was looking for a more comprehensive and organized life-reading spread to substitute for the “messier” Celtic Cross, one that also brought in astrological (planetary) correspondences. I developed this long before I became interested in Lenormand and its 9-card-square layout, although its approach to reading rows, columns and diagonals is similar. This arrangement lends itself nicely to use of Elemental Dignities and the sub-quintessence, quintessence and grand quintessence concepts I posted previously.
