1.25) Twelve Houses Spread (#12, C4, A) (Doane)

Layout: Numbering is the same as the Four Trines Spread but uses a diamond formation instead of a circle

       02 06
     09     10
   05         03
   01         07
     12     11
       08 04

Deal: Numerically as shown

Reading: Even though the deal uses the awkward scheme shown above, the cards are read by what house they are in astrologically. House one is in the same position as card 1, but house numbers increment by one going in a counter-clockwise direction. Thus, House two is in position 12, house three in position 8, and so on.

Variation: I have seen a varation with a querent card placed in the center of the layout. (Jones)

Comment: For card numbering information, see section 3.6.
