10/wands (R); Knight/pentacles; The Moon (R)
The trouble with a lie is that maintaining it can get progressively more and more difficult as time goes by, and it can also become more and more impossible to hide the truth, which is naturally screaming to be seen, to be heard, to be acknowledged. Maintaining lies can become a burden, at least to most normal people.
And here, it looks as though someone is going to have the opportunity of getting out from under this most unpleasant burden; because the truth is going to be revealed, and the revelation will unleash a flurry of emotions, activity, and repercussions.
Page/swords (R); 2/cups (R); The Emperor (R)
The revelations of someone's truth is going to completely invert, turn topsy-turvey, the connection of a couple. Their reality may be quite altered, at least initially, and I do believe that each of the individuals within this couple will have a totally different perspective of the reality of it all.
On the other hand, there will be the weak cry of justification, of entitlement, and with it the eerie iridescent green glow of gaslighting and psychological manipulation and maneuvering. There will also be lacking a true and integral understanding of the ramifications of it all, a compete lack of empathy of the feelings that have been roused and bruised and belittled.
Strength (R); The Lovers; Page/pentacles
At the end of it all, the couple will only once more stand together, but not united, facing each other in a strange new surreal light. All of the lies, the facade, will be stripped away, and they will be left to look at each other -- really look -- with everything exposed: all the unpleasant and oozing old wounds from past hurts; all of the ulterior motives, those fevered pus-filled blemishes that were so carefully kept concealed. It will not be a pretty sight, but at least it will all be an honest view.
On one side, will be someone tired, utterly exhausted, by their journey through this odd and destructive connection. They have used all of their energy up trying to keep this world and themselves together in this moment with this person. They won't realize, not at first, that their strength is actually limitless, and that they will eventually regain their equilibrium and their sanity, and be quite surprised at the new-found purpose and direction their new life will take, engulfed in enthusiasm and expectation.
On the other side, is some form of strange and unrealistic expectations with a skewered eternal oblivious hopefulness. This mental condition may stem from the fact that they have turned away from the remnants of an unsuccessful coupling, ready and willing and excited to move onto the next alternative, the next possibility, the next diamond in the rough... and they think, perhaps the next one will be more moldable, more compliant, more successful.
Please remember, these are general readings done with no one particular individual in mind. This reading may resonate with a wide variety of people in various phases of life and under uniquely personal circumstances.
I also wanted to note that I no longer give personal readings for individuals, and that all of these general readings, both at The Mystic Crone and at Phoenix Rising, are FREE readings, written and recorded on a whim when the urge strikes me.
If you enjoy these readings and videos, I would appreciate it if you would "like" and "subscribe" at YouTube. I have to say that it's kind of nice to get some sort of feedback for the effort I put into creating them. It lets me know I'm doing a good job!
