ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

Paul Hughes-Barlow
The road hasn’t always been smooth, but the ride has been made a lot easier by the love and support of my family and friends who have walked alongside me on this path. They’re a very special bunch and I love them all. Special mentions go to my father, John Chapman, who continues to be my champion, supporter and inspiration; to Douglas Gibb who continues to encourage me, and without whose input and support my website Tarot Elements wouldn’t exist; and to Helen Edwards because her faith can move mountains and her faith in me never faltered—she was so often my guinea pig throughout this whole process; and last but certainly not least, to Paul Hughes-Barlow—thank you for everything, the journey has been immense and I know it continues on.

FOREWORD BY DOUGLAS GIBB
Paul and Catherine’s book is a truly unique and innovative approach to the Celtic Cross Spread. They take the reader on a remarkable journey that starts with the Celtic Cross Spread in its traditional ‘positional based’ layout and, during the course of the book, transform it into a linear based spread.
This journey includes the use of techniques that were originally developed for the Opening of the Key Spread and chronicles Catherine’s own Spiritual journey, culminating in a series of powerful initiating visions.
In my professional Tarot practice, I use the Opening of the Key Spread for face-to-face clients, but tend to shy away from using it when conducting telephone readings. However, this book provides the perfect solution. I now use the Celtic Cross Spread as a linear based system, which allows me to implement the techniques normally applied to the Opening of the Key Spread. I’ve found that Paul and Catherine’s innovative approach to the Tarot has benefited not only myself as a Professional Tarot reader, but also my telephone-based clients as well.
One of the unique features of this book is the dialogue between Paul and Catherine. Paul is a guide, while Catherine examines and interprets the cards in great detail. It’s clear that both of them learn a great deal from each other, and, each in their own manner, their understanding is enriched by the process.
The transforming experience that unfolds from the application of these techniques will benefit the reader in many subtle ways, on both a practical and a spiritual level.
