Card 1 partially overlaps, but does not cross, the Querent as shown

Deal: Numerically as shown

Reading:
Card 1 - Called the 'answering card'.  If upright, the answer to
          the question was yes; if reversed, no.  Also the outcome
          card for the reading.
Cards 2 & 3 - 'Helpful' Influences.  Reasons the outcome will
               occur.
Cards 4 & 5 - Querent's thoughts regarding the matter
Cards 6 & 7 - 'Adverse' Influence.  Things that are working against
               the outcome
Card 8 & 9 - Querent's feelings regarding the matter

Comment 1: Peach suggests the cards be read in the following order:
               1, 2&3, 6&7, 4&5, 8&9

Comment 2: Note that 'helpful' and 'adverse' influences are always
with respect to the outcome shown in card 1.  Thus if the answer
comes up no, cards 2 & 3 will be aiding that outcome and not
necessarily aiding the querent.
