Insight on someone's situation

I got the idea for this spread after checking one of the Mind-reading spread in here. Basically, this a more general variation of the aforementioned spread, but one that may or may not include oneself in the answers



2................(9)
........1.6........
3....7..5..8....4

1-Current Situation
2-Main cause of this situation
3-Emotionally coping with the situation
4-Physically coping with the situation
5-Probable outcome
6-Ideal solution
7-Worst possible outcome
8-Best possible outcome
9-An optional clarifier for (4)

Also, for (7): even positive cards carry a negative meaning here
for (8): even what seems like a negative card carries a positive meaning here

Hi Aleio,

thanks a lot for your spread - I think it's wonderful! It inspired me to varify it. Hope you don't mind my tweaking .

This is how my version looks like:

2....5....7..
...1....6...9
3....4....8..

1 Current Situation.
2 Main cause of this situation.
3 Emotional coping with the situation.
4 Physical coping with the situation.
5 Mental coping with the situation.
6 Ideal solution. Solution you wish would happen.
7 Solution's worst case scenario / outcome.
8 Solution's best case scenario / outcome.
9 Solution's most likely scenario / outcome.

I too took your spread and tweaked to go along with my variation of The Mind Readers spread. I hope this is okay as well.
