How many spreads do you use?

I just use three spreads consistently, although I like to play with additional ones from time to time.

I use a lot of different spreads, and have 'The Complete Book of Tarot spreads" by Evelin Burger and Johannes Fiebig to thank for this. There have been quite a few spreads I have found in there which I see as more appropriate to different reading situations than the good old tried and true Celtic Cross. Whaen I was just learning, however, I used the CC exclusively until I really felt I had a decent understanding of the cards, and how they all relate to each other in a spread. This made it a lot easier to branch out into more diverse spreads. At least it did for me.

Yup. That would be the one! Actually, I use that one almost exclusively. It is actually very insightful!
