This is a specified relationship layout that uses nine runes to analyse where a romantic relationship is at and where it is headed. The first rune shows where it is at now, and can be considered the significator. The second and third runes determine where your partner stands and how it relates to where you are at personally.
Above the stem, the three-card base of the layout, a cup forms. Runes #4 and #5 show each person's desires, meaning what they want to get out of this coupling. Above this, Runes #6 and #7 show the challenge that this pairing presents to each individual. The final two runes at the top form the rim of the cup, symbolic of the taste of the relationship to each person, which shows how things will turn out on each side.

The Current State of Things
Othala represents a fortress of prosperity and security. Good character attracts good fortune. Those who have it are the ones who get it. That's simply the way things are. You are fortunate to be one of the lucky ones. At the same time, we all make our own luck.
This often represents inability to come to terms with repressed issues. When one is not willing or able to process trauma, one's demons will always need to be kept at bay. This would not be a good time to act impulsively.
This rune warns to tread lightly. There may be friction in relationships and unmet needs. Sometimes hard lessons are necessary in life. Some things we just don't want to learn. Be careful not to burn your bridges.
The "Horse Rune" is a sign of adaptability, transition, movement and travels. You may be closing in on your goals. Most basically, this rune means progress.
The "Gambler's Rune" reversal warns that this is not a good time to take risks. Games of chance are not favoured. Do not give in to loneliness and despair.
Your life may not seem so clear to you during this time. Berkano reversed may mean dissatisfaction and problems with the family. Someone might not be pulling their weight. Be careful to protect that which is yours.
Fehu reversed represents infertility and stagnation. Don't let sluggishness keep you down. You can force yourself through this writer's block.
There will be trouble getting the information you are looking for. The information may or may not be available, but you will need to be open to receiving it if you wish to. You may be pleasantly surprised if you reach out to someone.
This rune literally means "year" and stands for the harvest of a good year's labours. It represents a permanent change for the better. Jera denotes fruitful, recurring cycles, and strong fertility.
