it maks sense to me now. Timing period. Thank you.

anytime!

Samantha,
I had an interesting afternoon. I decided that I would have a go at the Celtic Cross Spread....my first attempt. I did change the names of the positions to make it easier for me but it still reads the same if you know what I mean.

And a funny thing happened. I did another spread for the month of August and I got four of the same cards that I got in the cross....so something must be telling me something.

Anyway this is what I got...to the rest of my class mates I would appreciate some help if you can see the cards any different from me. This is a learning thing and practice makes perfect.

The Celtic Cross

Question – What will the next few months be like for me and my family?

Position 1 (the situation)
KING OF CUPS
Wanting to be emotionally secure and have a happy environment within the home.

Position 2 (helps and obstacles)
8 SWORDS
Feeling trapped and really unsure of where I want to go or what I want to do .

Position 3 (past)
10 WANDS
Trying to take on too many things. Too many ideas of what I want to do and this is tieing me down.

Position 4 (recent past)
THE HIGH PRIESTESS
Not using my ability to trust my intuition and I should do so.

Position 5 (possible future)
4 CUPS
Getting myself into a rut if I don’t do something to help myself.

Position 6 (immediate future)
2 WANDS
Putting all my plans and ideas into action.

Position 7 ( attitude)
8 PENTACLES
I am up to learning something new. I want to learn new things and I have the skill to do so. I will work hard for what I want.

Position 8 (environment)
5 CUPS
I am thinking back too much on past events. I need to forget about the dramas that have happened and move on to better times.

Position 9 ( hopes and fears)
KING OF PENTACLES
I hope to be financially secure in the future and that my family will be safe and secure.

Position 10 (outcome)
THE STAR
My outlook is a good one and my hopes and wishes will come true.

MONTHLY SPREAD – AUGUST
cards set out like this - 2 3 1 4 5

Position 1 (middle – general atmosphere)
KING OF PENTACLES
Money wont be a problem this month and our finances are well and truly under control.

Position 2 (first week)
NINE OF CUPS
Almost complete emotional satisfaction within the home. I feel there could be some celebration or good news.

Position 3 (second week)
THE STAR
This will be a truly good week and will carry on for some time.

Position 4 (third week)
8 PENTACLES
Learning new skills or maybe putting my skills to the test somehow. I also get the feeling I will be helping someone out in someway too.

Position 5 (fourth week)
Moving on to better times. Its time to put past events behind me and move on. There is no going back, only forward.

I think you did a god job Carol, straight to the point...and it looks like you get a very good 6 month coming up

I haven't tried the celtic yet...I must first learn to use fewer word or my spread become a novel hehehehe... but I liked yours

Thanks Rhutobello,
I tried my best for my first time     The only reason it was short and sweet was because that was how I saw the cards   I can waffle on when I want too!!!!
