Lol, I just love that word, Lion Heart. Anyway this spread is basically just the celtic cross with some additions on the circle and staff for a deeper understanding.

I feel reinforcing the staff and circle helps to give a clearer image of the problem. There are also many variations to the celtic cross so use your own layout, don't be restricted by mine.
Circle
S - The significator.
1 - The problem
2 - Crossing
3 - Root
4 - Water (Everything that water symbolizes)
5 - Past
6 - Earth (Everything that earth symbolizes)
7 - The Crown
8 - Air (Everything Air Symbolizes)
9 - Future
10 - Fire (You get it now i take it)
Staff
11 - Self (mind/feelings)
12 - Temple (Body/ Health)
13 - Enviornment
14 - Perceptions - How you see this enviornment
15/16 - Interchangeable (both relating to hopes and fears)
17/18 - Both Outcome
the celtic cross being such a common spread I take it this has probably been done many times. it took me a while to decide where the elements would fit in but it keeps earth in the north, Water in the east, Air in the west and fire south. So it should be all good. if anyone has any better suggestons for cards 11 - 18 plz feelfree to make suggestions. Remeber this is a spread in progress.
There was one thing i was confused with. If for example if the 9 of pentacles came up reversed on water, would the card keep it's original meaning or would it mean love that was compromised? Just a thought.
Thanx, Sandy
