The Celtic Cross is the most well-known tarot spread and also the largest layout available here, involving ten dominoes. This layout begins with a pair of crossing dominoes at the center of the issue, essentially being two significators. When two significators are involved, they may strengthen or oppose each other, which speaks of the nature of the situation. Above and below the initial cross, we have two dominoes which are symbolic of the intellectual (top) and emotional (bottom) basis of the issue. The Before and After dominoes show the past and immediate future.
At the right, four dominoes are laid out, going upward. At the bottom you have a domino representing yourself, and the next domino shows how others may affect the situation. Card #9 indicates what you may be hoping for, or possibly, what you hope will not happen. Finally at the top is the outcome, meaning the distant or ultimate future.

Two/Four
This tile suggests a setback. Sometimes we need to take ourselves out of the game, perhaps to heal. Take advantage of this time in every way that you can, just remember to take it easy.
Blank/Blank
You are an artist with a blank canvas. It is up to you to choose how you fill it. You will discover new abilities that you may or may not have considered. It is up to you, which talents to cultivate. You are capable of more than you know. Make what you will.
Three/Three
That which has confused you will soon become clear. Your ability to think lucidly is at or near its zenith. Solutions to lingering problems will soon be obvious to you.
Two/Six
Be wary of biting off more than you can chew. It may not be wrong to desire more, but you will need to do some personal growth before you will be able to reach your goals. Do not let this stop you. If it's worth doing, it's worth doing the right way.
Four/Four
Don't let anybody tell you what's good for you. Only you are responsible for your path in life. Trust your intuition. Those who say it cannot be done should not interfere with your ambitions.
Blank/Six
Opportunity for material gain is on the horizon. Be alert and you will see it coming and be able to make the most of it. Also, be careful to not necessarily take the first opportunity at the expense of a better offer. You'll have to think like a business person.
Four/Six
Do not think only of yourself. No one is an island, and the decisions you make in life will leave a wake behind you. Be considerate of the potential of both harm and gain that could come from your actions. Realise that when you harm others, you ultimately harm yourself. Be your best self.
One/Six
This tile is a sign of completion. It's a great time to tie up any loose ends. You should complete old projects before starting new ones. Be wary of spreading yourself too thin. Focus completely on the moment so that you can proceed to the place you want to be.
Two/Two
This tile suggests to be open to change. New possibilities will be available depending upon where you direct your attention. New people will be walking into your life, and new unions will be possible.
Blank/Three
This tile suggests considering setting some time and energy aside in pursuit of spiritual development. A rebirth can effectively reboot the mind-soul connection. The value of such pursuits cannot be understated.
