At the moment I only offer readings with the Universal Rider Waite Deck and the Gilded Reverie Lenormand deck by Ciro Marchetti.
Tarot Spreads
Mathers' Second Method
$22A method of cutting cards taking from S.L. Macgregor Mathers' book The Tarot. Here is the description from the book:
"Withdraw the King or Queen, selected for the Inquirer's Significator, from the pack. Then shuffle and cut the same as before. Place the Significator on the table face upwards, leaving plenty of room for the selected cards on the left-hand side of it. Now go carefully through the pack, taking the top card first, then the seventh card from it; and so on through the pack, re-commencing if necessary, until you have drawn 21 cards by taking every seventh. Arrange these 21 cards in three rows of seven each, from right to left, on the left-hand side of the Significator ... Read the meaning of each row from right to left, beginning with the Significator; then combine the 1st and 2 1st, the 2nd and 20th, and so on, as in the previous method."
This spread is useful, in my opinion, for answering more opened ended questions such as "Where is my relationship headed?". Here is a sample reading of this often overlooked spread on another reader's blog.

Celtic Cross
$15The most common and famous of all tarot card spreads. It looks at the situation from the standpoint that the past is foundational and influences the current situation, that the present is composed of obstacles, your environment and personal desires, and that the future is the result of path paved by the previously identified influences.
Relationship Spread
$20A thirteen card spread that focuses on each member in the relationship, assuming it is a two partner only relationship (I have never read for a polyamorous relationship but I'd be happy to try!). Four cards surrounding each partner reveal their feelings and desires about the relationship, three extra cards show the past, present and future.
Grand Tableau
$60This is a tarot version of the massive lenormand spread. A court card is chosen as the significator and taken from the deck. Several more cards may also be taken to represent aspects of their life, such as love, finances, or health. The original deck is shuffled and however many cards that are necessary are taken from the top of the deck and added to the cards already removed to make a 36 card deck (like traditional lenormand). This deck is reshuffled and laid out in the typical grand tableau fashion and read as lenormand.
Three Card Spread
$5A basic short answer spread.
Lenormand Spreads
Grand Tableau
$60This spread makes full use of each card in a standard 36 card lenormand deck. It is meant to be a "big picture" spread, looking at the paths of life in the past, present and future. It also looks at specific cards which signify aspects of the querent's life (ie The Heart is love, the Fish is wealth, The Tree is health and so on), and the influences surrounding and shaping them. This thread takes anywhere from 40 minutes to 2 hours.
9 Card/3x3 Spread
$10One of the most basic lenormand spreads. This spread is composed a single central card with 8 others surrounding it. The spread is broken into groups of 2 and 3 cards to read the answer.
3 Card Spread
$5The most basic lenormand spread. It is used to answer simple or yes/no questions.
