A simple Relationship Spread

Original spread explained by author of the blog Here

Her Heart:
The High Priestess

In her heart, she is following her intuition & whatever her inner-voice tells her. She is waiting, patiently for events to unfold & her only guidance is her heart & whatever is within. She is willing to wait & see what reveals itself.

Her Mind:
Knight of Swords

In her mind, she is ready to take action, move forward. She wants to act on impulse, cut the crap & see all the mystery behind it all.

The cards we have for her are opposites, she is definitely facing a mind vs. heart battle. Her heart tells her to stand still, & her mind tells her to be all rational & reasonable about it.

His Heart:
Three of Swords

Oops! He is going through some kind of pain, most probably hurt with some words (May be when she said something like Knight of Swords, listening to her Head only, she unintentionally hurt him). He is in pain, but what he knows is what he was supposed to know.

His Mind:
Temperance

He is trying to be calm, and finding healing (for his heart may be). He is showing balance, he is mentally stable, working patiently towards his goal.

His situation looks interesting too, he is not having any heart against head battle. He is rather working them together to create his comfort & peace.

Foundation of the relationship:
Judgement

A new fresh start is the foundation of this relationship.This relationship is purely based on a reawakening & knowing what you must do. The couple actually told that this was their second encounter & they decided to give it another go this time.

Advice: FOR HER
Knight of Wands

Do now, think later. Be adventurous, leave the complications & the head vs. heart right where it is. You can do it & you must put on your best charming face & your best adventurous self & do whatever the heat of the moment suggests.

Outcome:
Ten of Cups

Oh... wow! This is great. You can actually have this relationship reaching the best potential if the advice is followed. Ten of Cups assures there is a complete emotional satisfaction guaranteed if you just go for it.

Looking at this spread:
She is definitely torn in two different direction, which makes her all gloomy. He on the other hand is trying to cope /heal his wounds. Their relationship is based on a true calling from heaven & they must wake up to this call which brought them together. She must be daring & confident in this relationship & she will have her fairy-tale happy ending.

Tarotscopes for December 2012

Tarotscope for December 2012

Love & Romance:

Three of Swords - 9 of Pentacles
Three of Swords is definitely not a good card for Love & Romance but its the kind of pain which is necessary for me to achieve the self-sufficiency & independence I really need at an emotional level. Three of Swords is a card which takes you through pain, sharp, breath-taking pain. I know I have to go through it once & forever, in order to reach the point where I can be happy on my own, like the lady in Nine of Pentacles.

Home & Family:

Judgement - The Fool

Judgement is the card where you have completed a cycle, the past is in past & now you are ready for facing the results. This also calls for a new wake up call, to embark on a new journey which is further reinforced by the Fool. It can also suggest that I might be judged for my actions, specially the actions which appear fool or child-like.

Work & Finances:

Nine of wands - Page of Wands

Having two Wands, the cards of Fire add up enthusiasm & energy in the career matters, but at the same time it can be a warning for being over-efficient. Nine of Wands puts me in a defensive position, possibly because of the experiences from past, thus resulting in having the strength to fight for anything that might come my way at work. But I will try to be cautious of my actions, just because I'm being defensive. Forewarned is Forearmed and this will result in a good news (Pages are messengers) & the news will likely be good. I'm quite hopeful if I show my strength, I can have it well.

Lunar Eclipse Spread on Tarot Thrones Blog

Original spread & explanation on Alison's Blog here

Short Description:

1 Shuffle your cards whilst contemplating the thought: 'what energies are being eclipsed in my life?'
2 Complete your shuffle.
3 Turn your deck over so that the images are now facing you.
4 Flick through the cards until you find your World (or equivalent) card.
5 The card BEHIND the World is what you currently hold in shadow.

The card which explains what energies I'm hiding is Ten of Pentacles. To me this card is the ultimate that I want to achieve in my life, family, financial security, a lover, a kid, basically the Idea life. If I have to ask for something in life & I have to represent it with a Tarot Card, this is the card I will choose (& I have in several Tarot Spells too).

Here this card is trying to tell me that I have the best of everything, I'm just not counting my blessings, I'm rather oblivious to them & I do not realize what a lucky person I am. I am financially secure, I'm having perfect content time after a long long time of struggle (both financial & emotional) & things are finally improving, but I'm too occupied & possibly negative at the moment.

I really should be having fun & great time instead.

A simple three card reading for a couple!

DruidCraft Tarot

1- what is happening:

Four of Pentacles

This is the card which shows insecurity, fear of rejection or holding on to a relationship which is serving neither people any good, out of some kind of insecurity . This card also shows that one or both partners are holding their emotions inside and not letting the other partner in which brings us to a standstill. The stability of number Four combined with the determined Pentacles suit gives us a stubborn and not easy to handle situation. Both partners need to open themselves more to the other person & discuss any kind of insecurity they have. They also need to consider why they are holding on so tight to each other. Is it out of fear of losing the other person or a fear or something else?

2- Advice:

Seven of Swords
Keep your personal matters to you is what I can say this card means as an advice. Sneaky/theft is the main meaning associated with this card but it can also mean not disclosing yourself completely yet. Sometimes the more you show, the lesser interesting you become. In order to keep the partner interested, it might be wiser to keep apart for a while & going lone-wolf, trying to solve things by inner wisdom.

3- Outcome:

Two of Swords:
When you detach yourself, without disclosing yourself too much from your partner, that is when you can see what is separating you, holding you two back. This will be good to make sure that you are in this relationship for all the right reasons & not the wrong ones.This card is also associated with making a choice or facing a choice.

Summarizing it, at present the relationship is at a standstill because both partners are more keeping to themselves or holding on longer/stronger than they should, mainly out of some kind of insecurity. Both need to spend sometime away, exploring the other options they have so that they can make a right decision as to whether or not to stay in the relationship or if they are staying in their relationship for the right reasons!

A higher number of Swords card shows that more rationality & logic is dominating the relationship, lacking emotional touch of Cups suit or the fire of Wands Suit. Swords is also associated with mental work, intellect & communication, therefore, communication seems to play most part in the situation.

My Next Year in Cards

Original Spread on author's blog here

I started to do this Twelve Houses spread for first half of 2013. The 13th card is theme for the first half of the year.

Twelve Houses Tarot Spread

First House:

10 of Pentacles
This card is not bad as my significator. I am at peace, I love my life & I enjoy whatever God has blessed me with. 10 of Pentacles is normally a card of wealth, but for me this card is pretty much everything, wealth, enjoyment, contentment, family, everything. So I expect the next 6months to be one the same note too.

Second House:

Ace of Swords
This card for me is the card of mental clarity, understanding of what's right & what is not. In this house it suggests that over next 6 months, I will have a clear cut idea of whats mine & whats not & how it serves me right or wrong.

Third House:

Nine of Swords
Not a good sign at all. I see a lack of communication, thus, the anxiety & sleeplessness. It may also suggest insomnia due to blocked communication. Representing siblings, the situation with them too doesn't look very good.

Fourth House:

Seven of Pentacles
In terms of home & domestic matters I see I have to be patient while the plants of my hard work bear some fruits.

Fifth House:

Ten of Wands
Since I do not have any children yet, I will look at this house as fun & good luck. The card tells me I will be more burdened than having fun, or good luck for that matter.

Sixth House:

Page of Wands
Page of wands is an individual who is fiery in nature & is an adventurer. This may also be a news regarding my health.

Seventh House:

Empress
I have been getting this card too often now. This is someone who is very maternal by nature & also enjoys abundance & sensual pleasures. The card of Venus in 7th house, not bad!

Eighth House;

Eight of Cups
I do see that I will stop trying to fix something which is not working anymore & will go to find something new.

Ninth House:

Four of Wands
I will be looking forward to some kind of celebration regarding my visions for my future or it can simply be the University Convocation.

Tenth House:

Five of Pentacles
Not good again. This card shows more of financial loss & poor state of finances in terms of career. It can also show disappointment or feeling rejected in terms of career/or at work place.

Eleventh House:

Death
so When the employer is not making anything, how can I? This is what I see in house 10th & 11th. In terms of friendships, I can see some endings with some people

Twelfth House:
Two of Cups

viola! A positive card, one of my favourites actually in house of sorrows. I will take it as, a new connection or partnership will bring sorrow.

So overall, I will be enjoying good fortune, having a clear idea about money & possessions, anxious & losing sleep over communication, waiting for some success at home, not having enough luck, a news about sickness, meeting a maternal kind of person, leaving on a new quest, celebrating dreams, losing financially, ending friendships, hurt by a connection/relationship

THEME of the year is THE WORLD, which talks about completion of a cycle, which sounds almost true for I'm approaching the 9th Personal year in Numerology, the year of Completion!

One Card Answer Spread; Whats keeping him busy

Quite recently I have started working with lesser and lesser number of cards. The reason being, they are simple & straight forward. If I pull out too many cards, I totally miss the message each one of them wants to tell me, individually.

I have been working a lot on my Daily Love Tarot card, which is my card for the day focusing on my Love Life only. The results have been marvellous. The cards are amazing.

Today I asked a question about a man who has been pretty detached lately. I have been pulling 5 of Cups (Feeling rejected), 3 of Pentacles (Focusing on career) & Page of Swords (lack of romance) lately & this is what is happening.

Q: Why is he not communicating with me like before?

This card, when appeared, took me a bit by surprise. I was expecting Pentacles, work, burdens etc. Boy, what was I thinking. This card appearing for my question tells me he is busy celebrating something he has achieved. This reminds me of the last time we talked & he told me how happy he was with his achievements & how he loves enjoying the fruits of his labours.

This card is also about feeling content & satisfied. I can imagine this will give him a drive to work more, to achieve more, to set more goals for himself. So goal-driven he is!

The thing that makes me happy is that he is happy & satisfied & not burdened etc. I think he is just taking his time away from me!

Will he come back; a question left for me!

Hello

Few days ago, someone left a question on my ask.fm

My relationship ended about 2 months ago. I can't get him out of my head... Is there any chance he will come back?

Before I draw cards for you, I want to tell you that all of us have been in the same situation at some point in life. What works the best is to let nature take its course. Sometimes in life you just have to learn the art of letting go of something that is no good for you. You must realize that not everything happens, is meant to be forever. If you and that guy are meant to be together, you will always find your way back to each other, no matter, just do not force the matter.

I will do a simple spread, A present situation, B Advice & C Outcome if you follow the advice spread

Cards I got are:

Present Situation:

Seven of Cups: This card is all about delusions, day dreaming & dreaming of the possibilities but not doing anything concrete to turn them into reality. 

This card's appearance here tells me that you are just daydreaming, creating castles in the air, the possible scenarios, letting your imagination go wild and while you are letting your mind wander you are not getting anything out of it mainly because there is no action of driving force to turn your fantasies into realities.

This card in this position shows that you are letting your imagination take the best of you. You should control yourself, snap out of the daydreaming & come back into reality. Take Control of your imagination & your life.

Advice:

Eight of Cups:

This card in this position says pretty much the same thing which I wrote right under your question. Let GO! Instead of day dreaming in card one, focus more on finding deeper meanings of life, devote your time & energy to spiritual quests. Let go of the past & move on. 

Outcome:

Ten of Wands:

When you let go of the thoughts & your past, you might realize its too hard for you to go on. Sometimes when reality hit us, it makes it impossible for us to move on. You, however, must carry your burdens. Do not blame yourself for everything though. You might have to work hard in order to heal & then moving on with your life, towards your future but the good side is that 10 is a number of completion of a cycle & then a new beginning awaits. You must go through the struggles, the ending, the closing of a chapter before starting another & closing is not easy every time.

From your spread, I can tell you that you must let go & you must move on. You should focus more on spiritual journey & finding true answers to give some meaning to your life.This journey is not going to be easy for you but you must remember a new beginning awaits you :))

Happy Thanksgiving & be Thankful for what you have

Success & light

A happy ending!

This reading was done this morning for Honey & Zee who are right now in a friend-lovers zone and zee basically doesn't know where things are heading.

I did a simple Past, Present, Future spread using two cards for each position.

Past:
Seven of Pentacles and Wheel of Fortune

We see a stand-still, a waiting period which was probably destined to happen because of the presence of wheel of Fortune. When this card Wheel of Fortune appears, I just take it as a sign from Gods that whatever is happening is not upto you. There is a higher power involved. The Seven of Pentacles is a time when you are waiting for the success to arrive and the fruits of your labour to appear. Things move slow with Pentacles but there is an indication of success if patience is exercised.This combo also indicates waiting for a change of events.

She confirmed that relationship went from strangers to indifferent to hate to friendship to "soft" feelings. The progress has been and is pretty slow but she sees improvement.

Present:
Seven of wands and Five of Pentacles

Seven of Wands is basically struggle, where you are usually on the top of the situation. The presence of Five of Pentacles tells me that probably both of them are more occupied with their financial situation and are fighting on that front right now, which is why the relationship is not exactly going anywhere yet.

She confirmed that they both are right now in that state of mind where finances are the major worry.

Future:
Knight of Cups & Ten of Cups

The best possible outcome ever! Knight of Cups is the sensitive, romantic lover who can take on the world to save his princess and Ten of Cups is the happy ever after card. Since the Knight can represent a proposal too, I think they might be on a more stable ground to consider emotions, love, happiness and possibly a family together in future. For timing, I will consider the Summer season important as both cards in the future position are Cups and I associate Cups with Summer.

There are Two Sevens in the reading which means inner wisdom and going within is important in this relationship. Two Sevens also indicate self-confidence issues.

There is missing suit of Swords which is the suit of thinking, logic and communication. The missing suit indicates the missing energy from relationship is logical thinking, which by the way is no surprise since this is a love reading, and communication is what needs to be focused more on!

Tarotscope for November 2012

Love & Romance:

 

The Moon & Eight of Wands:

It looks like the illusions and being unable to see through the illusions from last month, I will finally be able to put an end to that. Things will be coming to conclusion.

This is right, I have gone from being delusional to being practical to knowing & realizing answers. The 8 of Wands is also a card of communication which has been on the roll lately.I think, now at the end of the month, I know what I want from my relationships.

Home & Family:

 

King of Pentacles & Four of Swords:

I see a man who is Earth sign and financially very stable (can be my father or brother, they both are good with money & have strong Earth personalities) shall be withdrawing & resting. I'm just getting worried if it means my brother/dad will be getting ill.

No one fell ill, which is a great news, but I have actually got a big inspiration to prepare myself for the responsibilities ahead.

Work & Finances:

Seven of Pentacles & Ace of Pentacles:
There is time before success and a new financial beginning arrives. The cards for work look really good this time around. The Ace of Pentacles for this position really suggest a new beginning, a new job with small salary or wages, but there is a strong potential for growth. The seven of Pentacles is the time for waiting.

THIS was the highlight of my month. When I saw the Ace of Pentacles, I knew some opportunity was coming up for me & it did. I have had an offer, an opportunity. Its a small one but with Aces you cannot expect something bigger, but something smaller with a chance of getting bigger. This is what I'm hoping & aiming for.

Someone posted a question!

Someone asked me about interpretation of "Will he come back" Spread.

Someone asked you a question on Ask.fm
Hi, can you help me interpreting my 'will he come back spread' please. 1- two cups reversed 2,3-high priestess reversed and nine of wands 4-the lovers reversed 5-seven of swords 6-queen of pentacles reversed 7-queen of cups 8-king of swords reversed 9-ace of cups And the key: wheel of fortune Help, pretty please

This is the question I got & I just want you to know that I do not use reversals. Its been one year but I'm not comfortable with reversals yet, but I will try to come up with an interpretation.

Here is the spread.

1. Your motivation – The first card shows you the real underlying reason for your desire to reconnect. It indicates if you want them back to soothe a bruised ego or if there is true love there. It tells you if you feel that you didn’t learn all you needed to learn or if you are just struggling with letting go.

Two of Cups Reversed;

You have issues with accepting love, letting it happen, & opening yourself to love. This person in question can be a reason for this blockage & this is why you want them back, because you believe they will help you open yourself to love again. This card also indicates lack of commitment Make sure you do not have commitment phobia & that is why you want this person just because they are not commitment oriented & that feels safer in a way. May be he is just not available enough & you just want him to satisfy your ego. Not a very good reason to want them back if they are emotionally not available to you.

2. & 3. What you had – These two cards represent the relationship dynamic you had in the past and sheds further light on the first card.

High Priestess Reversed & Nine of Wands

The High Priestess reversed tells that you have failed to listen to your heart and trust your gut in this relationship before & this has been happening because of you being too defensive about your feelings. It might be because you suffered a bad relationship/break up before this guy & you were just not willing to open yourself up to love & romance after that. You were just not listening to your heart. You needed to trust your gut & face your fears head on. I believe this explain why you want him back now, mainly because the feelings you had for him, you were not able to let them out or express yourself the first time around (Two of Cups Reversed).

4. The handle – This card shows you what action you would need to take to reconnect. A card such as The Hanged Man shows that it won’t matter what you do, you’ll just have to surrender and wait for the future to unfold. Look for the Fire (Wands+Majors) and Air (Swords+Majors) cards to indicate that taking action will pay off.

The Lovers Reversed

Again a fear of commitment or a fear of going the next step. It just indicates that you need to shift the path of your relationship by expressing your true feelings. A struggling relationship does not mean it has to end. You just need to find the willingness to express your personal truth and make the best decision for yourself and your relationship. Just make sure you know that you want this person for the right reasons.

5. The lock – This is the main challenge/obstacle that lies between you and your AWOL lover.

Seven of Swords

STOP running away from your fears. This card can also be a warning that this person in question is not telling you all truth. There is always a hint of deception and trickery with this card.This is the obstacle, you have to be true to yourself first, & then you will be able to see it in other people too.

6. An outside influence currently affecting the situation – No need to elaborate.

Queen of Pentacles reversed

I believe there is a hidden desire in you to express your sensitivity & this is leading to this situation. The Queen can also be another woman involved in this situation, making you want him bad, someone who is not affecting you directly, but rather indirectly, a friend with successful relationship, someone who is successfully happy in a romantic relationship & it makes you realize you need to finish your business with your ex.

7. 8. & 9. What lies on the other side of the door – If you know that it is best not to push through, you’ll at least have some idea of what is happening there and why things are best left alone. He could have moved on emotionally or he could be struggling with stuff that you can’t help him with.

Queen of Cups - King of Swords Reversed & Ace of Cups

If you try to push the door open, it will serve you good. It will give you an ability to realize your own needs & get in touch with your own sensitivity. He might be a bit off, or things might not go well, but ending with Ace of Cups, I think things will be great & both of you will experience a great deeper emotional connection again.

10. The key – If you received a green light for using that door handle, then this is the key that unlocks the lock and gives you the understanding you need to open the door.

This card is all about cycles of relationships, changes & BIG changes you can expect. The only thing you can count on is that nothing is permanent. Things will soon change & these changes will be out of your hand. I think you just need to have some faith. The cycle of slowness in your romantic life is coming to an end. You have little control in the matter. on other hand, It’s important to note that the Wheel of Fortune Tarot card reminds us that there are ups and downs to every relationship. With its appearance in a love Tarot reading, there may be a need to take stock in your relationship. This is the time to ask yourself if your partner is worth the commitment. After all, every relationship will have its highs and lows. The true question you need to ask yourself is if you value your partner and relationship enough to work through the difficult times.

Hope it made some sense at all.

Blessings & light.

Quick One card reading

Q: What should S do in order to make J desire her?

A: Six of Cups

Six of Cups Radiant Rider Waite Deck

The most interesting bit is that S & J were high school lovers, who have come across each other after 8 years now. They have felt an instant attraction towards each other & this time the connection is different than before.

1. Looking at the picture,we can see the feeling of love, genorosity & affection oozing. There are two kids in the picture & the card somehow reminds me of the Two of Cups, only with children this time. So forming a child-like affection attitude, generous & pure, will help her make him desire her.
2. Child-like purity will make him feel nostalgic, like old times, & this nostalgia will remind him of his feelings for her
3. Children are pure, optimistic & fun. These qualities will attract him towards her.
4. Reminding him of old things, talking about his childhood stuff, may be even discussing kids will help her.
5. This one card reading has helped me discover a lot about the priorities this guy has *grin* and one card, sometimes is more than enough.

Quick Love Spread

Original Spread & author found here:

Q: His thoughts & situation regarding his relationship with me?

Him at Present:

Two of Cups:

the Two of Cups can indicate a balanced and harmonious relationship. It usually points towards a relationship that has mutual respect, attraction and romantic inclinations. I like this card appearing here because it means he is perceiving our relationship exactly the way I am. Peaceful, harmonious & smooth.


Challenge: What stops him from moving forward:
Temperance:
The card of patience, cooperation, balance and moderation. He is a slow & steady wins the race kind of guy & it explains his approach well. He believes in "time figures everything out for us" kind of approach & this is what is stopping him from moving forward. I also believe he is healing from a past relationship possibly which is why he has to stop & think before moving forward with me.


Issues from past influencing present:

Eight of Pentacles:
This card simply confirms that our business with each other was not really finished when he made a re-appearance in my life. He still had lessons to learn with me (& vice versa) & that is exactly why, I believe, we have come together again, to Two of Cups.


Future/outcome/Potential:
The Moon
He may be having conflicting feelings, I would love to have him face them *evil laugh*. This is my card for "facing the fears" & I can very well see what his worst fears are in relation to me & he will be facing them soon.

1)What you and your partner are thinking about each other Ace of wands & Seven of wands

I think about him as a new adventure, this is true because when I sent him my first message I actually was looking to rekindle the old spark. He,to me, is my new beginning and that too a fiery one.

Him on other hand, thinks of me as someone courageous and he actually told me the same too. I actually went ahead & confronted him to solve the tension between us so he is kind of impressed with my directness.

2)What you and your partner are saying to each other (how you communicate)
 Two of wands & Death

I basically tell him all the time to have fun with life, keep a balance (number two) & analyse if whatever he is working hard for is worth it.
He on the other hand tells me his stories of why he is the way he is. He is a Capricorn & a workaholic. For him life is serious business & he is miserable sometimes. That is why these two cards explain it very well.

Alternatively, I weigh my words, I evaluate my words before I tell him anything & he is trying to transform the way he has been & is now communicating with me.

3) What you and your partner are doing to each other (how you treat each other)
Knight of Wands & Lovers
I treat him with passion, adventure & fiery nature, because I'm an Aries. He treats me like someone he can share things with.

4)Advice on how to create more harmony between what you think, say and do.
 Four of Cups & Page of Cups

These cards tell me , being Cups, that we need to work on our sensitivity & emotions, since both of us are Aries & Capricorn respectively, emotions are not really our thing.
I have to be more self-absorbed & I need to see whats around. For me this card is about "help will come" so I have to be more considerate of what I have instead of what I want to have. About him he has to learn about his emotional & sensitive side.

5)Current happiness potential
Ten of Pentacles
This card is all about happiness, completeness, family, riches, health, wealth & a stage where things are all set in order to start a new cycle. We have a potential to reach our true happiness & complete this cycle if we both pay attention to our emotional needs.

Tarotscope for October2012

Last month's successful tarotscope encourages me to have another go!

Love & Romance:

Ending & new beginning + Growth & abundance

Last month I had Ten of Swords with Seven of Cups & that was true. This month I expect I will move on from my day dreaming of last month towards more stable growth & also abundance. Empress is the card I just pulled for what was coming up next in my life. Empress is also a motherly influence in your life and in terms of romance it means growth, increase, abundance. Good sign for October



Home & Family:

Being Considerate + Family Happiness

This card tells me that after some time of factoring others into equation, I will see some family happiness & quality time at home. I'm very much looking forward to this. Ten of Cups in this position is great.

Work & Finances:


Mystery + Rest = Calm down

This clearly tells me there is still much time for me to stand back & relax before I can actually find some work. Its taking longer than I thought.

Generally: I see good times at home & in terms of romance a spiritual growth (no man in cards) so peace out!

Sleeping Beauty Relationship Spread

Since I have been dating but it leads to nowhere, it gets me thinking what is going so wrong and where the hell is "he" who is meant to be mine forever & with whom things will be all magical? I have been trying to take advice from tarot & my spirit guides for opening myself to love but its just not happening.

I decided to ask the cards once again using the Sleeping Beauty Relationship Spread designed by ArwenNightstar  here:

Sleeping Beauty: A Relationship Spread

1. Why are you asleep to a new relationship?

Four of Cups
2. What is keeping you asleep to potential romance?
The High Priestess
3. What do you need to know about your dreams of romance?
Three of Cups
4. What or who will awaken you to romance?
The Sun
5. What will they need from you for romance to work?
Ace of Swords
6. What will you need from them for romance to work?
Death
7. What will be the final outcome?
The Moon

The first two cards show that basically its introspection & inaction which is keeping me still. It is true because for last four months I have not been socialising much, except for two weeks in Aug-Sep when I was busy with family holiday. Apart from that I am not putting myself out there which is reinforced in the Third card, what I need to know. I have to be out there if I want love to come & find me. The Sun further clarifies that a sense of freedom, putting an end to staleness & instead having fun will bring romance in my life. I need to take control & look through the clouds & veil of mystery in the High Priestess card to see where I have to be. I will need to put an end to a cycle, a call for ending whatever I have been going through, & finally face my fears. The Moon card as the outcome card shows that I have to face my fears this way. I will be bewildered & finding myself overwhelmed but its important. This is the feeling you get when you wake up from dreams like Three of Cups.

Autumn Equinox Spread from Tarot Thrones blog

Autumn is officially here & I saw this simple yet effective spread here & decided to try it out for myself:

Card 1: This is where I am unbalanced and SHORT/DEFICIENT

The Ace of wand is the sheer will power & a creative idea that all of sudden hits you like a bolt. 

This card tells me that I'm currently lacking my drive, my will power & an idea that will immediately take me out on a new adventure. The aces are the beginning of something & they tell me that I need to take charge, be in control & have the courage to take things head on. I'm an Aries Sun & Mercury so it totally means being in my own shoes, which I usually am, but these days I lack direction, This card tells me to take the risk, fall for it & fall hard. Its really ironic though, taking out Ace of Wands with the green leaves beginning to bud out, while we entered Autumn.

Card 2: This is where I am unbalanced and OVER-ENDOWED

This is my card of running away or escapism. This card tells me that I am trying to run away from something I should instead deal with. This card is also a card of deception. I should stop myself from running from the issues and instead make sure I know what I'm doing & what issues I have & deal with them.

Card 3: This Court brings me back into balance:

So I lack Ace of Wand & I am escaping my issues, this brings me to Knight of Wands which is also Aries in my books. So all I need to do is be myself. Sun is currently in Libra, right opposite to my sign & I should be taking the matter heads on instead of escaping them.

This Knight in my books is very adventurous. In this picture we can see he is all set & probably with full force, ready to go out on an adventure. I think I should have some more fun, be courageous, knowing that I can have what I want.

This spread has summed the situation very well for me. I think its telling me that I need to be back in my usual form, my usual Aries energy, even though the Autumn is here, I can still have my Spring on the go...

About him!

Recent Pluto retrograde transits brought some people from past, some people I was obsessed with, back into my life. I felt my intuition quite high today so I asked a few questions about a particular person:

1. Does he has feelings for me:

10 of Wands & Queen of Pentacles

Ten of Wands is my No card because there is too much going on in that person's mind. He is actually a very responsible kind of man & he has lots of responsibilities. This combination shows that he has responsibilities or burdens towards her family, mother in particular. Its like he has to work for bringing food on the table. No room for romance in this man's life apparently.

2. Will there be a long term relationship with this man:

The Lovers & Two of Cups

I have pulled these cards again for this man. I last time pulled these cards for what he wants. It looks like there is a reconciliation in store for us, & we will meet again, this time as lovers.

3. What stops him from approaching me:
Ten of Pentacles & Eight of Cups

The man in the Eight of Cups is leaving the beautiful scenery of Ten of Pentacles behind. It looks like he has had some financial security, a happy family time but now he is leaving on another quest which is why he is not contacting me. I'm not sure if he has recently started a new job or anything but I believe he is looking for something & when he has found it, he will return to me.

My Tarot Yes/No list

Most of times we are looking for a Yes/No answer, Period. Whether they are a good form or question or not, that is not the concern when you are so desperate to know where you stand, black or white, no greys.

Tarot is always more accurate when you have your own associations with it. You can not & should not use a random search on Google for keywords or yes/no answers for a card you pulled. You should have your own meanings, keywords, time frames, Yes/No attribute associated with each card so that your subconscious may register which card means what to you.

Here is my list of tarot Yes/No (may be) cards:

The Major Arcana:

0	The Fool - Yes, a new beginning
1	The Magician - Yes but you have to use your creative skills for that
2	The High Priestess- No, not known yet, a mystery. Its not a complete no, just not yet!
3	The Empress- Yes, with growth & increase
4	The Emperor - Yes but you have to take control
5	The Hierophant - Yes but stick to the tried & tested methods.
6	The Lovers- Yes
7	The Chariot - You have a choice, indecision. Situation can go either way
8	Strength - Yes you have the strength to make it happen
9	The Hermit - No. some questions need to be answered first
10	Wheel of Fortune - Its out of your hands, don't push your limits.
11	Justice - What goes around comes around. Outcome depends on your action. May be
12	The Hanged Man - No, not yet
13	Death- No, never. Let it go.
14	Temperance- Yes but not too soon.Have patience
15	The Devil - No, detach yourself from this situation immediately.
16	The Tower - No, let it go.
17	The Star- Yes
18	The Moon No, set realistic goals.
19	The Sun - Yes
20	Judgement- Yes, a fresh start, a renewal

4	Yes - but have patience

I will do a few practice readings with it & post back how it works.

Will I find true love

Original spread here:

1) Will the querent ever find true love?

The Moon:

 Maybe. Caution is advised. Deception or self-delusion could be indicated. This card is not one of my favourite cards. There is an element of delusion, fear & strange passions in this card. I think either I'm too afraid of love or I'm just having an illusion of love, but may be no true love for me or when I have it, I'm just too scared to accept it.

This card looks like more like an unexpected situation that kind of bewilders you.

2) Will the attraction be instant or a slow-burning realization?

Seven of wands:

Wands is fire, & fire is passion & impulsive but this card shows a man struggling & working hard. so I believe it will be more of a struggle which explains the card 1.

3) What will this person be like physically?

The World

Lean, thin, complete, a balanced & complete package (hehe)

4) What will this person be like emotionally?

Ace of Cups

I see he is too emotional & it explains the card 1 & 2. If he is too emotional that will automatically make me confused & thus, the struggle.

5) Are there issues the querent needs to deal with that are delaying a meeting/relationship with this person?

Judgement

I need to start over. I need to let go, forgive & forget, leave the past behind & start a complete life over. I'm just about there.

6) Are there issues this person needs to deal with that are preventing a meeting/relationship?

King of Cups

He seems too emotional to me that is why so many emotional water cards coming up. This card also shows he needs to keep his emotional side in check.

7) When/where/how will the querent meet this person?

The Magician

Some place fun, creative & where there is everything available and you have to make something out of it. Some skill learning class or a place where you are the centre of attention.

I pulled an extra card for timing & I got Temperance which rules Sagittarius. We are about to enter Sagittarius period in about two months. Lets see what happens.

5/8 cards are major arcana which shows me things are out of my hands & there is destiny & major events happening in the regard. There is a complete absence of Pentacles & Swords which shows there is a need for logical thinking & practicality.

My Tarotscope for September 2012

1. Love & romance:
Ten of Swords & Seven of Cups:

Ending + Options = new beginning
Ten of swords is the card of ending of a bad situation.Number ten also talks about completion of a cycle & a new beginning. The Seven of Cups however bores a warning that when the new cycle begins, the foundation should be laid on strong practical thoughts and not just day dreaming. The 7 of Cups also suggests there will be some choices,options & alternatives presenting themselves, but I need to be careful about them.

This turned out to be pretty accurate, I guess I am going through a bad rough patch in terms of romance. The end actually came & the new beginning too, but I realized it was just my day dream, & nothing real!

2. Home & family:
Five of Swords & The Devil

Empty victory + Addiction = watch your tongue
Five of Swords is verbal arguments that result in the empty victory. This card normally appears when you have won a battle but you end up questioning yourself if it was worth it. The Devil next to it shows that I will probably find myself being addictive to this empty victory & having verbal battles which I might win, but they will not be worth it.

These cards also were true with the fact that I was more verbal than usual & I won plenty many times, but again, may be the arguments were not worth it & I should have watched out.

3. Work & finances:
Empress & Temperance

Growth + Patience = Slow but steady growth
Two major cards in this area show that there is destiny at work here. Empress is all about expansion & growth & a time of abundance while Temperance advices to slow down, have patience. Temperance for work also suggests mixing & matching one's talents and skills to achieve the growth that is required.

There have been one positive glimpse of hope, I have applied for an intern ship I'm hoping to get. But I have to be very patient.

General:
I can see the work & Finances should be the focus of the month because this area seems to be flourishing. As far the love & family life are concerned, there are warning for that.
