Who wants to tell the class why that is?" A bit more discussion, and then maybe it would be time to start the practical portion of the lesson.

Emily's hand shot up again, she was eager to earn her house points.
"The Celtic cross spread is particularly popular because the layout of the cards is quite simple and is also powerful. The layout is best described in two sections, firstly there is the cross which is made up of the first six cards, then there is whats known as the staff which is made up of cards seven to ten.
The central part of the cross relates to what is most important to you at the time of the reading, the larger cross referrs to your movement from past to future - left to right, and your unconscious to your conscious mind - bottom to top. The staff which form a line on the right hand side represents your life."
