I just to know one thing for the harrowing during the "7 days to the grave". It is noticed in the book, that the harrowing must be done with only 9 cards refering to constitution cards. I think that in "edge of anarchy" the harrowing (not the choosen) should be done with all cards in order to give to PC more than one harrow point if thiers personnal card was in the 9 cards? Can you tell me more, please?

I'm confused about what exactly you're asking.
For all harrowings, the Choosing is done with the nine cards of a given suit. The the Harrowing is performed with the whole deck: with the cards from the choosing shuffled back in.
I know that, but page 13, I can read that :"When you do this reading
(which should only be done with Constitution cards at the choosing), take pains to interpret the cards from the past..."So?

It is simply instructing you to use Constution cards (Shields, if I recall correctly) at the choosing. For the reading, you still use the whole deck.

OKY, sorry, I don't really understand the sentence in that way, but you're right, I'm going to do it in that hway! thanks!

Ah, I think I see your confusion, that parenthetical in there does kind of throw off the sentence. But Ross is right. It's saying two things here:
* When you do this reading only use Constitution cards at the Choosing. (Yeah, given, easy, there's a whole sidebar on that)
and
* When you're reading a character's past, play up the character's previous brushes with disease, sickness, and death. (This is just a suggestion to add theme and a bit of spookiness to your reading."Seven Days to the Grave" is perhaps a less then uplifting adventure, so if you're going to dive right in here's a good time to start setting the spooky/depressing mood.
Hope that helps!
