When Will Cupid Strike

Andy recently posted a spread on his blog here which is basically, about what, when & how of "when will I meet the one".

1. Why you've not found love/partner.

Ten of Swords:

This card has appeared for me more often than any other card in a love reading. Basically this card talks about ending,  completion & you have hit the rock bottom. Its been longer than 3yrs now & somehow, mentally I'm still getting over it. 

This card can literally mean feeling like a victim. Although I do admit my mistakes when I look back & talk about my past, I do admit my mistakes & I did learn a lot from them. Somehow I am still not ready to get up, pull the swords out of my back & move on. I have to get out of this self-pity like approach in love.

2. How to overcome any issues in card one.

Queen of Pentacles:

This Queen, unlike the Queen of Wands (Fire) is very serious about relationships. she does not believe in short-term flings or just flirting with anyone. She is the woman who would protect her King, make a home with him, serve him breakfast every morning & make babies with him. 

This Queen may also be a woman, other than myself, who can help me with overcoming my fear of "failing" my next relationship. I usually do not make friends with Earth signs, although I have lot of Earth in me, but this woman can be an example for me, how to make a relationship successful.

3. What is the most positive thing you can do now.

Four of Pentacles:

This is the card I used to describe my ex actually. This man in this picture actually often reminded me of him, because in his case I did just that, held on TOO tightly. 

This card is all about holding on tight. Since its a Four number & also Pentacles, we can relate it to material security & stability too. This is exactly what I am doing right now, & letting matters lose as well at the same time, because I believe I sometimes try to be too much in control of circumstances ..

Both How to & what to do are pentacles. I see that financial matters and stability, more practical approach is needed. Its really hard for me with Venus in Gemini but I have lot of Earth in me, so I just need to let loose.

4. Who is the partner for you.

Nine of Pentacles:

Interestingly, when I put y story or my goals in cards, Nine of Pentacles is always the card I put before 10 of Cups and 10 of Pentacles, these two cards being the ultimate goal of mine in terms of relationships. I want to be happy and care-free and financially well-off on my own, forming my own individual identity before I step in to a relationship. Now the same card is representing the man for me. This person is someone on-my-own type, which is BTW my type. This man is more a self-reliant type & is possibly enjoying the fruits of his labours right now & one thing he misses is Love.

Another reference that is made with this card is though, that of a person who is happily single. This actually worries me a bit, because when you are under the influence of Nine of Pentacles card, you just do not want to be in a relationship.

5. Where you will meet.

Nine of Cups:

The only place I can think when I look at this card is an exhibition. The Cups suit is also related to family & emotions, so someone in family is presenting something, may be a friend's celebration or something. 

6. When you will meet.

Emperor

The only Major arcana card in my spread which is easy to pin point the time since Emperor is associated with Aries. Sun will be moving to Aries in next month. Lets see what happens...

SUMMARY: 

There is the dominant suit of Pentacles, so despite the Nine of Pentacles as "HIM" I'm still thinking if it will be something long-term. 

I welcome opinions!!

Mother issues & resolving them!

For all those people who have an interest in astrology, The Moon in our charts sometimes represents Mother  & a Moon-Pluto & Moon-Mars Opposition is a classic aspect for "Mother issues". The Moon-Pluto opposition can be explained as:

The frame of reference you choose to portray your relationship with your mother will play a decisive role in all of your close personal relationships

& Moon-Mars opposition as:

Part of this aggressive and assertive nature may be rooted in your relationship with your mother. Childhood feelings may have been denied through a lack of emotional contact, or through having to submit to an oppressive home - The Strange House

 So I have these both oppositions. I usually draw a daily card for love reading for the day. Its mainly for practising & enhancing my understanding of deck in terms of relationships & love readings.

For last three days, I have been drawing The Moon card daily. Just now when I was looking into it, I found a website that relates The Moon card to Mother Issues & all of sudden I was reminded of the article I read on a website just three days ago, which was about our attraction towards emotionally unavailable people mainly because we have been deprived of a fathers or mothers love in childhood.
Then it just hit me.

I have already ponder over the fact that I have a difficult relationship with my mother, my chart confirms it, & so does my reading of my life. This relationship alone has effected more areas of my life than any other thing ever. I try hard to reach a comfortable stance with her but somehow does not happen at all. She is a double Scorpio with a Day number 4 & Life Path 9.

So enough with the story now, I pulled a one card to ask, what should I do to improve my relationship with my mother.

This card is number 20, Judgement card from the Major arcana. Judgement card is the card of re-birth, starting over, letting the past go & rest in past. Astrologically this card is ruled by Pluto & The Moon  corresponds with Moon. So basically its the Moon-Pluto aspect here just intensified in my reading.  This card also represents a calling, an awakening that I need to wake up & address all those issues that are lying buried in my past. When you understand a problem & admit that you have a problem, 70% of it is already solved just there.

Another meaning associated with this card is absolution. There is a need to let go of the past, forgive each other & forget whatever happened.

The problem is, I'm willing to do that, but may be she is not even though I'm the one suffering this more than her!!!

God bless her!

The Four Modes Spread by Marry K. Greer

I was just reading "Understanding the Tarot Court" by Marry K. Greer & Tom Little when I looked at this spread given in the book.

The Aeclectic Tarot forum explains the spread like this:

Next we visit the four modes of Tarot - the Court Cards, which answer the "Who" of a reading - the parts of yourself or people around you that are part of the issue; the Minor Arcana Pips (numbers 2-10) that describe the "What?" - the situation that the Seeker is in; The Major Arcana that answer the question "Why?", addressing the life lesson for the Seeker in the situation they are facing; and the Aces, which answer the "Where?" of the situation - the elemental world, realm or sphere where the action is taking place.

For this spread you have to basically separate the deck in four parts.
1) Court cards
2) Number cards/Minor Arcana Pips (from 2-10) of each suit
3)  Major Arcana from 0-21
4) The four Aces

Like the text I copied from Aeclectic Tarot's review of the book, the court card tells you what court card you are acting like. I didn't pre-choose the card because I wanted to see if I'm being myself (Queen of Wands) or not.

The Minor Arcana Pips card tells you what situation you are in & what you are doing in that situation

The Major Arcana card tells you why you are in this situation & what you need to express/what your lesson here in this situation is

The Ace tells you in which realm or area are you facing the situation & why you are doing what you are doing.

1) King of Swords: Some words I can really relate to for this court cards are "logical, head-over-heart, controlling, thinker (sometimes over-thinking) , wants crystal clear view of situation, cold, detached, trying too hard to dominate, & above all, blunt (look at that sword).
So I agree, I exhibit all these qualities these days.More negative than positive *sigh*

2) So whats happening is, that I'm delusional. This is the word I associate with this card. This card is also the card of day-dreaming & I'm falling for it. Instead of taking some practical decisions, or actions,I rather sit & imagine what it can be. There is also A LOT I want. & I want it all at once. That is why I have no idea which one to work towards first. At the same time, I'm so tempted by all the options I have, or I think I have, that I'm clearly careless towards what I'm losing. This explains the cold/detached King of Swords attitude.

3) The Hierophant explains why its happening. I'm a rebel. I always walk against the current, not that it ever serves me right. But the lesson here is to get real & understand that the path less travelled, well, there is a reason its less travelled. I should stick to more traditional roles. See how I'm exhibiting the role of a King, the alpha, the master, while I'm a woman & TBH I was expecting a female court card at-least  I need to fit to my role. I know this sounds too traditional, but hey, that's what the lesson is here right.

4) The realm is that of emotions, feelings, love & relationships, also family & matters related to heart. See how there is a lot of Blue in my spread, which represents feelings. The "What" card is also of Cups, mean in terms of whatever is happening, at least I'm on track. The Hirophant is Earth, boxed in with Water on both sides, thus, the message of Hierophant is even intensified. The only culprit here is Swords (Air). Air and Water just create Storms.

So here, I'm taking things (options) too rationally & logically. There is a need to conform to traditional values and even seek advice from someone who can help.

This spread actually gave me a lot to wonder about.

Try it & share how it feels!

TarotScope for February 2013

Every month I pull six cards, for Love, Home/family & work/Finances
For this month I have:

Tarotscope for month of Feb 2013

Love & Romance:

Hierophant + Strength 
Hierophant in love position actually suggests commitment or traditional relationship values like marriage, loyalty etc. The Strength on other hand is lust & physical passion. These two cards initially looked very opposite to me. Only later after pondering over this for sometimes I realised that Hierophant is also a teacher or an advisor. A person who helps you understand the deeper meaning of something. This person may or may not be a Taurus sign or one with a strong Taurus in his/her chart. The Strength is soft-control or being tolerant & compassionate towards others.
So this is a person who is teaching me to be tolerant & compassionate towards others. This person is probably a strong supporter of traditional values & a belief system.
After meditating on the cards for few seconds I have come across a statement which relaxes me (It happens when I know that I know what the combo is telling me). Our traditional values tell us that women are naturally more soft & compassionate than men. This combo here is telling me that by being soft, it doesn't mean I'm out of control or giving up. It simply means what I'm unable to handle with force & aggression  I should be able to handle the same with love & kindness.

Home & Family:

Six of Cups + Page of Pentacles
Nostalgia/childhood memories + A student

I like the way Page looks closely at the coin, as if observing it too closely. This combo here tells me that there is something I need to learn from my childhood memories. I have some issues with family this month, I can already see situation worsening sometimes in this month. It simply tells me that I have to look back & see where the problem lies, in my childhood.

Work & Finances:

Seven of Pentacles + Ace of Pentacles

This combo is exactly from Tarotscope for November in same position. At that time I was offered an intern ship at a bank right after my exams. I can tell that something smaller, like a bottom-level job or a new job which doesn't pay as well as my expectations (since its an Ace) but there is a potential for increase. The energy of Ace is very short-lived. I must grasp the opportunity. The Seven of Pentacles however suggests there will be sometimes before the opportunity arrives.

Questions left for me!!!

I'm so sorry for all those questions left on my blog & I have not answered.

Since the questions were anonymously left, I will answer them & you have to see which one is yours.

Q: Is John good for me

A word of advice. Word your questions carefully. John can be good as a friend but may be not as a lover or vice versa, So make sure your question is complete.

Queen of Swords:
This card is all about being fair. Ask yourself, you already have the answer. Its your call. What goes around is what comes around. I think you have to be a little colder and rational than you are and then he might turn out to be good for you. Sometimes we show a certain side of our personality to someone and this invokes one certain side in the other person. Change your attitude towards him. be more logical, communicative, clear the air. If you have issues, talk them out with him.

Q: what will initiate the contact from Char soon?

Page of Pentacles:
Pages are messengers. These are also young people around us. This person can be someone who is learning and studying. If you have a kid, he can be the reason for contact. Other than that you will hear from him, may be through a third person. you do not have to make an effort to hear from him, IMHO

Q: Shall I see him before my birthday again?

The World:
Hi I'm sorry your Birthday must have passed by now. Happy Birthday to you & answer was Yes, you should have seen him.

Q: is he the one for me?

We all wana know that one!!

Knight of Pentacles

This man is slow & steady. He believes in practical approach to life and romance. I'm sure he is not making a move and its keeping you frustrated. Hold your horses, and wait. If you are the type who likes the slow...i mean realy slooowwww types, then yes, he might just be the one for you.

Q: will he come back and we will resume relationship?

Empress

Yes and yes, you are in for the love time. There are all good things around you. It may also indicate pregnancy. If you want kids, it will happen.

Q: will we have success in our plans this year please? Thank u

The Wheel of Fortune

This card is a card of fate. The card tells you that there is fate intervention here and there is very little you can do. What has been successful so far will face hurdles and what has been trouble so far will be a success. There is a definite new chapter opening for you.

Good luck and wishing you success

Q: Will I be in a committed relationship with Ken?
Ten of Pentacles

This card talks about completion, practical matters (like marriage and home/family) and financial best. Yes I think its good move for you. You will have financial success & love to celebrate for!!!

7 of Swords & interview call!

I had a job interview today so I decided to pull a card for how it will go, yesterday. To my surprise I got myself this card. The most common meanings associated with this card are running away, or stealing something, hiding something & eloquence.

I thought I will mostly be beating about the bush in the interview or something like that.

Today I woke up at the right time, and was all set to go, but something inside me was kind of stopping me from going. I started a self-analysis whether I really wanted this position at the respective company. I knew this is not what I wanted but something is better than nothing and since I do not have any other hope regarding my job any time soon, I might just show up, meet the person, may be he ends up giving me some career tips or what my next move should be.

Anyway, I had an hour-long drive to the place & I had to be there by 12, and here I was sitting & wondering what I wanted to do, till 11:00. I was sure I will never be in time if I start getting ready now.

Somehow I ended up calling them & telling them I was not interested in the position offered. So the 7 of Swords was actually right, I was simply running away from the interview at all. I will not blame the Void of course Moon in Taurus for this at all!!!

TarotScope for January 2013

January 2013

Love & Romance:
After the 9 of Pentacles effect from last month, this month it seems like I'm actually trying to conflict and win my own emotional side over while I'm actually the one at the losing end here. 5 of Swords is the card of empty victory. The Ace of Cups however suggests a new beginning this month once I'm done and I realize I cannot win them all. Ace of Cups is quite comforting in this position.

Like I said 30 days ago, Can't win them all. I tried & I tried but I lost. I hope the winner is happy. The Ace of Cups if the card I just pulled for next few months & it seems comforting. I can use a new beginning.

Work & Finance:
Eight of Cups is rightly there since in two weeks time my internship is ending and I will be looking for a better position as an employee somewhere. The Four of Swords however tells me I might have to wait till the next month to actually find something to do. Not very comforting.

Whatever I wrote above holds true to the bits. Internship finished, looking for a job, nothing happening yet. I'm upset!

Home & Family:
I see issues with father in this pair. The Knight is an aggressive young person who acts on impulse and fights for what he believes in but since the Emperor comes afterwards, it shows that structure and order will be restored or things will be too controlling and this getting on my nerves.

Some good days, some bad days. some issues with authorities due to my bluntness. I need to watch my tongue!

There is a complete lack of Pentacles in this reading which shows me some practicality and slower approach to the month is needed. Money and more practical matters should be focused more on. There is a higher number of Swords cards which shows thinking and intellect will be dominating this month.

I'm genuinely not happy with this month's reading! :(

Everyone have a nice month, a nice start to New Year!

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.

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.
