Dear All
I know the CC is not very popular as a spread on AT but I quite like it and often use it with some success depending on the kind of question posed.
I have a question about position 2 - the card that crosses the central card. Everywhere I have read about the CC has only ever positioned this card as the 'challenge' and the card in opposition to the subject card and yet I often find, especially in more positive readings, that this card represents not a challenge but a contributing factor. So for example I asked the cards about a trip I was making and the central card was Fool, crossed by Ace of Pentacles. The Ace was clearly here not a challenge but a nice contributing factor as the trip was both a journey (Fool) which I had not made for many years but was also one with which I was familiar. In this way it was lucky and positive whilst also being something unusual for me. The Ace here was not in opposition, it wasn't a challenge, but as I read it it contributed to the central issue. And having done the trip I can certainly say this was how it was.
Does anyone have any thoughts on how they read position 2 and if they do so in a positive way. Or am I not getting it at all?
Thanks
