I like this spread, but **not for beginners**. The Celtic Cross just dumps way too much on people when I’m reading for them, especially newbies. I might even avoid it for clients if it’s their first time getting a reading (I’d probably start with something [like this one](https://forum.thetarot.guru/t/doing-a-past-present-future-tarot-spread/295) instead).

You can feel their energy getting scattered, trying to take it all in. It’s like the cards are screaming every single detail at once, when sometimes you just need to let one or two messages really land. I don’t care what the traditional spreads say you’re supposed to do. If the person across from me is drowning in information, what’s the point?

Sometimes you just need to pull a few cards and let them breathe.
