Obviously if you are getting clear and useful answers, you are adept at 3-card positionless spreads. A great many people who are not adept at them stubbornly cling to this technique despite being confused by the results.
This had been me for awhile. I finally asked myself WTH was I doing and decided to modify the 3 cards in way that made more sense to me. Now I'm getting the most accurate readings since then.
I pull a base card. A main card. And then finally a clarifier to the main card. Still 3 cards but they make more sense to me now.
