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.

Relationship Problem Solving Spread

Original spread here
Deck images used: Druidcraft Tarot

Card 1: The problem, the real question; present situation, reason for asking.
Wheel of Fortune

Cards 2,3,4,5 and 6 represent the nature of the relationship.

Card 2: Shows how you relate to the other person.  Strength
Card 3: Shows how the other person relates to you. The Magician
Card 4: Shows what the relationship looks like as a whole. The High Priestess
Card 5: Shows your hopes, needs and desires in the relationship. Page of Wands
Card 6: Shows the other person's hopes, needs, and desires in the relationship.
Six of Swords

The Wheel of Fortune as card one shows that there has been some fateful event, some thing that happened out of the control of both persons involved and this has brought a crucial matter up. The wheel of Fortune is a change, a movement and a next chapter card. There are some big changes happening in the relationship.

The way these two people relate to each other is very different. One person is compassionate and understanding while the other person is trying to be the master-mind and Mr. know-it-all. Magician is also someone who cons other people but he has vast mental power. We see infinity sign on both cards, they both have limitless energy in this relationship. The Magician is also the powerful and the controlling one, the master at his game. 

On the whole the relationship looks deep and mysterious. Things are not completely revealed yet. There is a great effect of going with intuition and following one's guts here. Overall the relationship looks serene and composed but who knows what lies behind the curtain.

Cards 5 & 6 shows they both want, hope and desire same thing, change, adventure, a new outlook. Both 6 of Swords and Page of Wands are the cards of adventure and leaving things behind and moving on. But If we look closely, they both are moving in opposite direction. 

Cards 7,8,9, represent conflicts and insights into impediments.

Card 7: What is causing conflict or impediments. Ace of Wands
Card 8: Represents your perspective of the problem and how you will deal with it. Five of Wands
Card 9: Represents the other person's perspective on the problem and how they will deal with. The Devil

This card Ace of Wands shows there is a new beginning and the raw power and the energy is becoming difficult to handle for both individuals. 

The person 1 is taking the confrontation door to solve this issue while the other person is playing mysterious and cold here. The shadow of the Devil behind the sleeping lovers shows that this person does not want to confront the situation, he wants to play dark and illusive. He wants to remain a slave to some illusion he has created about the dynamics of this relationship in which things are happy and content and he is the master.

Looking at the people, person 1 is very understanding and compassionate in the relationship but her actions are too child-like. She wants kiddish stuff. To solve the problem she wants to confront the problem heads on.

The guy in the situations is powerful and he believes he can make the relationship go in any direction he wants. He hopes and seeks a change in his life through this relationship but he does not want to solve the problem, he rather wants to stay a slave to his illusions.

Cards 10, 11, 12 offers insight and solutions

Card 10: What needs to change to overcome challenges. Two of Wands
Card 11: This is how you can resolve any differences and how you can improve the relationship and take it to the next level. Ten of Swords

The Two of Wands is usually a stubborn person who is waiting for something to arrive This aspect of the relationship needs to change.This is the card of personal power and both individuals need to realize that relationship is not about their personal power play.

The differences can be resolved by putting an end to the older themes and patterns of the relationship. The 10 of Swords calls for an end to old habits and behaviors.

Card 12: Crucial Insight; additional advice or outcome.

Ace of Swords in this position shows that there will be a new fresh start, with a clear understanding of the relationship. This is also a card of mental clarity which will be the essence of the relationship if the advice is followed.

Overall we have 5 majors, 4 wands and 3 swords. There are two aces.

A majority of major arcana reveals that there are things which are out of control of the querent. A majority of wands on querent 1's side shows she is more hasty and impulsive. The suit of Cups is missing and also Pentacles. There is a lack of emotional understanding and a lack of practicality. Things are just heated up and blowing and will cool off shortly.

Myself:

10 of Wands:
I do feel overworked. At home things are not so cool and there are exams going on so I do feel overloaded with too much on my plate.
The 10 of Wands is amplified by another Wands card adjacent to it. This is something I can and will feel a lot in next week.

Theme of the Week:
Page of Wands
This card is about adventurous young person. This card also has represented a man in my life. The theme is feeling young at heart, a news is expected and adventure is the name of the game. This card is surrounded by Fire and Air, both amplifying it.

Challenges:
King of Swords
A cold man, who is very straight forward and is in position of authority. This man will be a challenge this week.The King is Surrounded by Fire and Air , which makes him in a stronger position.

Responses:
Four of Swords
I find myself being calm, and in dire need to rest in this week. I will probably be busy preparing myself for even worst. This card is surrounded by Air and Earth (Hermit is Virgo). The middle card here is moderatley active.

Advice:
Hermit
Self reflection and taking time off which is also given in the previous card. This card says whatever you are searching for you will find inside you. This card is Earth surrounded by Air and water. Here the Hermit card is moderately weak. I might not feel myself doing it more often.

Thought:
King of Cups
My thought are on a man who is very caring and sensitive and a deeper individual. The King is flanked by Earth but these both are passive and slow cards.

Reading them in combinations:
10 of Wands and King of Cups
I will be overworked because of man involved

Page of Wands  and Hermit
The adventure will be more self-inclined

King of Swords and Three of Swords
need to calm myself to face this authority figure

There are 2 Wands, 2 Swords and 1 water and 1 major cards.
The Fire and Air cards say this is a time to think and act. Two Kings represent two important men.

So much for the week ahead.

Tarot of Dreams by Ciro Marchetti

1. Your pulling power
This is what is attracting people to you now. Knight of Coins. Knight of Coins is a very practical approach to life. Knigh of Coins is the slowest in terms of taking action among the Knights. This Knight will not just jump into situations rather will take some time before the actually take any step. This practical approach combined with wisdom and reluctance to be impulsive and hasty is what attracts people towards you right now.

2. What you are currently attracting
This card tells what kind of relationships you are attracting now.

10 of Swords

Probably the worst card for this position. Right now you are attracting those relationships which leave in a state of misery and self-pity. You end up blaming yourself and your lack of insight when the relationships end.

3. What you need to leave behind in order to bring in something new
Justice. This is very interesting card to have in one's spread. This card talks about a strong sense of justice, a strong sense of being honest in relationships but here in this position its telling you to question if you are being too fair? Ask your self questions like do I lack Bias? am I looking at love from too strong an angle? This will help you realizing that may be you need to relax a little bit and let things happen on their own instead of trying to give them a balance. Sometimes things balance themselves out once they are left to handle themselves.

4. Your deepest, darkest desire
King of Swords

He is a man who is mentally very strong, very just (look at justice card) , a scientist, a logical head-driven individual who is intellectual. This is the kind of man you want for yourself.

5. What is coming in the time leading up to the next Full Moon
Page of Wands:

Expect some messages of love and affection . There is a person, with whom you might find a lot in common and is quite adventuresome, may enter your life. Take a chance and fly with them. The energy of wands will help you getting over whatever has happened in the past.

Page of Wands again!

The Page of Wands appeared for me few days ago and it brought me a news.

Today again, it brought me another news, through a phone call. The news was about family (I expected a Page of Cups) but it was not a good news, rather something that was done in a haste. I also heard about an accident.

Page of Wands and news about work!

Today's Card:

My book says:
As the messengers of the Tarot,

• all pages relay messages of concern.
• possibly in the form of a phone call, fax, e-mail, regular mail, or just good-old-fashioned conversation. 

I just got off the phone with the person whom I'm hiring for developing my software. It was significant for me since I am quite worried about this situation , I need the software done quickly and I am low on budget. Thanks to God the matter has been resolved!
