Dealing Out The Spread

Let's say you chose the;
Queen of Swords for person #1
and the King of Pentacles for person #2

Set these two (2) cards out in positions #1 and #2 in the layout. Next shuffle and cut the rest of the deck as you normally would. When you are ready start dealing cards onto position #1 (1st Significator card) until you come up with 'another swords card'.

Example

• Queen of Swords
• The Star
• Seven of Swords (<= another swords card so you would stop dealing cards out)

You then do the same thing with the second Significator card. Here I wasn't so lucky. Remember that here we are looking for another 'Pentacles' card because the Significator is the King of Pentacles.

• King of Pentacles
• Four of Swords
• Nine of Wands
• Page of Swords
• The Chariot
• Ten of Swords
• Ten of Cups
• The Hanged Man
• Ace of Pentacles (<= another pentacles card so you would stop dealing cards out)

Whew - quite a few cards in this second stack. I would say because of the disparity between the number of cards in the two different stacks that the relationship doesn't look good. It also appears that person #2 has quite a few issues to resolve because there are nine (9) cards in stack #2 to only three (3) cards in stack #1.

Reading the Final (Top) 2 Cards

Seven of Swords ..... Ace of Pentacles

With the 7 of Swords the seeker seems to be afraid, or running away from making decisions, from commitments, and from their problems. They may be to much of a loner for any type of relationship at this time. They might also be looking at a relationship at this time for selfish reasons. Possibility they are trying to escape from another (worse) situation.

Looking at the Ace of Pentacles we probably have a person to wrapped up in their job, career, business, etc. for a meaningful relationship at this time - especially considering all the other cards that came up in this stack. They may have a lot, or to many financial and business type prospects coming up to spend much time making a relationship work.

All in all I'd have to say that any type of relationship between these two people is ... unlikely at best - and a possible disaster on their hands if they proceed.

You can now try reading the cards beneath the top cards to see what else you can come up with in the reading.

What If ...

• You might be looking at a love triangle.
• If it's a Queen and/or King then there might be a mother and/or father involved in some way with the situation - for good or ill.
• If a Page/s - a child or children might be involved.
• Any number of other possibilities (You're on your own).

Advise: Draw another card, or cards to clarify the top court card, or cards.
