How to Read
Shuffle the deck while focusing on the relationship you are interested in. Draw 10 cards and lay them out in a pyramid shape: bottom row — cards 1, 2, 3, 4 (left to right), middle row — cards 5, 6, 7, upper row — cards 8, 9, top — card 10. Read the spread from bottom to top: first the foundation of the relationship (1–4), then roles and unity (5–7), then hidden desires (8–9), and finally — the outcome (10).
Tips & Advice
Pay attention to pairs 5–6 (roles) and 8–9 (desires): if the cards harmonize with each other — both partners are on the same wavelength. If they contradict — there is a hidden conflict or misunderstanding in the relationship. Card 7 (essence of unity) is key: it shows what unites these two people on a deep level. Card 10 at the pyramid's peak reflects the outcome to which all underlying factors lead. The spread is universal — use it not only for romantic relationships, but also for business partnerships or friendships.
