(NOTE: Sometimes the subject and the reader can be the same. For example, if doing a self assessment of your own obsticle)
Celtic Cross (Crux) Spread

Please note, if the reading is of an impression of a target or subject, then a querrent card may be necessary (placed under the subject card) depending on your preferred practice.
