Steps reading the cards:

Concentrate. Shuffle the deck. Begin putting cards on the table from left to right in 4 rows of 8 cards in each row in open state, so you can see them. The bottom row consists of only 4 cards centered.

Find two cards: "Gentleman" (ace of hearts) and "Lady" (ace of spades). These cards called key cards and represent you and your partner (husband/wife or just a person you love).

Now you should remove all cards except 2 key cards and the cards that surrounds every key card from the four sides.

The cards left on the table describe you the situation. The cards situated on the sides of the key card mean "the present". The card at the top means "the future" and the card at the bottom - "the past".

You can also do not remove cards and use all cards to read the spread. In this case note that the card changes its meaning when it is situated far from the key card. So, for example, any card means "luck" and situated far away from your key card this means that there will be no luck.
