Episode #20 ~ Pick a Card, then look, and look again

 

Today we're going to continue doing multiple readings with a single card...

5/pentacles...

• First read

Someone has tried so hard to break down barriers to be accepted into a social group, or a community organization.  Why?  Why are you doing this to yourself?  In your stubborn effort to gain the acceptance and approval of a group of people, or an organization, who doesn't seem to approve of the "real you", you have not only demeaned yourself, you have negatively affected your self-confidence, your mental and physcial health, and your general overall well-being.  You may have also inadvertantly been neglecting other people and responsiblities in your life, losing your sense of focus and priorities.  Stop.  Just please stop.  Take a good look at yourself and the direction this has all taken you -- do you really want to be where you are now?

• Second read

Someone is trying so hard to keep up with, or to hang onto, someone who is dragging them down; dragging them down financially in such a way as to diminish and ruin their life on so many levels.  Why?  What sort of spell did this person cast on you to create such tunnel vision?  Do they lie to you about money and finances?  Do they take from you what doesn't belong to them?  Do they give terrible advice and encourage you to make bad financial decisions?  You know better.  This individual you think you can't live without is actually one of the most destructive people you couldn've chosen to hook up with.  And the really sad fact is that this individual doesn't care about the damage they're doing to you -- either financially, morally, mentally, or physcially.  They are toxic.  Disengage.

Episode #16 ~ Daily Cards/Daily Energy

 

So how about this, I pick up a tarot deck that's always displayed on one of my witchy shelves, it's a small version of Hanson/Roberts, and I begin to do my awkward very personal little shuffle while standing there in the living room, and I'm saying to myself: "Spirit, tell me what I need to know.  Show me what I must see."  And out flies four cards that hit the floor, all in a single pile.

I pick them up, and this is what I find:

6/cups (reversed); 9/swords; Page/wands; 10/swords

The short story:

The first card, the card of nostalgia, tells us that someone from the past has come forward, and because this card is reversed there may be complications with this new old arrival from the past.  This person may prove to be problematic.  This renewed connection is going to cause a lot of anxiety and emotional ups and downs.  I'd call it a mental turmoil on a variety of levels.  The page tells us that there is communication with this person-from-the-past and someone in the here and now, a lot of back and forth banter, actually.  And the last card, the result of it all, is that someone is going to suffer the pain of betrayal and feel as though they were stabbed in the back.

And there you have it.  The short version of an old/new story.  The really odd thing is that this applies to me in such a huge no-denying in-your-face way that it's actually spooky.  

But at least I know what's up.

Episode #15 ~ Daily Cards/Daily Energy

 

King/pentacles; The Sun (R); 7/cups (R); The Emperor

At first glance, where are these cards taking us?

• there's a man who usually maintains a controlled and well-balanced life

• he's come to a point where an important decision needs to be made

• the situation that he's in and that has brought him to this point makes him unhappy

• he wants to regain control and personal power

Is there a theme or point here that takes priority?

• the decision marks a pivotal point in his journey

• the right decision will give him back his life as he knew it

Now draw a series of cards as many as you need, to tell the story...

My Cards:

3/pentacles; The Devil; Ace/cups (R); Knight/wands; 7/pentacles; The Magician (R)

There's the real sense of a loss of personal power and direction brought home once more with The Devil and the reversed Ace.  Because of rash actions, and probably unwise choices, a relationship that was once flourishing is now floundering, and its future is dependent upon a very important decision... which in reality comes down to someone's "choice".

Power lost will be restored once someone realizes that the key here is not only logical decisions but healthy choices, and choices made for the right reasons.  There was action taken quickly, way too quickly, without a lot of thought.  Hindsight being what it is, someone knows they acted too rashly without thinking through the final consequences, and they regret it now.

You can fix this with the right decision.

Episode #14 ~ Daily Cards/Daily Energy

 

4/cups (R); 9/pentacles; 3/swords (R); 4/wands

What are the principles of this unfolding story?

• something is FINALLY going to be addressed/resolved
• contentment restored after a heartbreaking confrontation/ultimatum
• a reason to celebrate is going to be restored
  
  

What is the strongest point touched on here?

• someone has gotten the courage to face something unpleasant
• a relationship issue has been resolved
• there has been a decision to move forward with plans

Now draw a series of cards, as many as you need to tell the story...

My Cards:

Page/swords; Knight/pentacles; The Moon (R); Justice; Queen/cups; 5/swords (R)

There had to be a verbal confrontation, and during this process someone had to be strong enough to point out inconsistencies and openly confront a liar; or a liar had to be strong enough to know when to acknowledge their lies and ask for forgiveness -- or both.  It looks like there might have been a small penance to pay if this were the case, because the emotional fallout for the victim to these untruths was traumatic, and there needs to be a bit of vengeance... er, justice.  With that said, the battle that was fought brought an end to the war.

Episode #13 ~ Daily Cards/Daily Energy

 

King/pentacles; 5/swords (R); Death (R); 7/wands

What are some of the story themes coming through here?

• an individual who is used to having respect and being in control
• a disagreement with a questionable outcome
• a huge change or transformation that is suppose to happen but hasn't happened yet
• someone who needs to guard their boundaries

What looks like the most important issue(s) here to focus on?

• a confrontation between this king & another individual
• some major transition that is supposed to take place, but for some reason, it hasn't 

Now draw a series of cards, as many as you need, to tell the story...

My Cards:

Page/pentacles (R); 3/swords; 4/cups

The issue this King is having involves an individual several years younger than him, and they do have a common shared connection, either parent/child or they are siblings.  There has been a feeling of competition between them for an extended period of time.  There has also been a period of estrangement with no contact.  The emotions emitting from both individuals are stubbornness and jealousy.

Justice; 7/swords; Wheel of Fortune

What is the crux of this situation?... a legal matter

• someone has been deceptive
• someone has tried to claim or take something, or a portion of something, they are not entitled to

This issue, which has been brewing for a substantial period of time, will finally find resolution.

Episode #10 ~ Daily Cards/Daily Energy

 

Ace of Cups(R); Knight/pentacles; two/pentacles

There's the beginning of a new relationship for you, but it's not exactly what you were expecting.  Either it came from a shockingly unexpected source (which is not a bad thing), or it came at an inopportune time for you, or you are processing the possibilities that this new adventure brings to your life and all the emotional experiences that come with it, and you are unsure about your feelings (if this is the case, this is a red flag).

The new paramour on the scene, or the new possible paramour on the scene, seems to be quiet and patient, appears stable and sound and relatively "normal" (whatever this broad and undetermined word means).  The thing is, as patient and kind as this new romantic interest might seem, you can't expect him to stay on bended knee in a state of limbo forever, and he won't.  You could say that this is a time sensitive issue and decision, and that would be fair.

So, ask yourself... 

• How would this person fit into my life? 
• What do we have in common? 
• What would we have to compromise on? 
• What are the pros?  What are the cons?... and can I live happily with both?

Episode #6 ~ Daily Cards/Daily Energy

 

6/pentacles (R); 3/wands (R); 5/pentacles (R)

Our issue today is finances and all about juggling money, waiting for a financial deal to come in, and then facing great disappointment over a financial loss.  So what's going on here?  What is this scenario all about?  Let's take a closer look, card by card:

6/pentacles:

It appears that at one point, when you had money, it was passing, or changing hands, back and forth, back and forth.  And there appears to have come a point where someone dropped the ball.  For some of you this could mean outrageous mismanagement of finances through a poor business manager, poor personal decisions, or a partner that you shouldn't have trusted -- either a business partner, or a relationship partner, because sometimes this is one and the same, and that's the feeling here, two closely related individuals.

3/wands:

Well, what were you waiting for? -- positive results that were promised or expected?  a windfall?  a promised opportunity or contract?  Whatever it was, this ship has sailed.  This is never going to happen.  This card feels very much like someone who was deliberately duped in a financial venture.  The one thing this card indicates in its reversed position is that you need to stop standing still waiting for something that will never arrive, and you need to start moving and take action, hopefully to recover some of what you lost.

5/pentacles:

This card is going to point out a harsh truth, and that is that you have landed in a dismal financial situation, and it's not going to be pretty or fun, and there is not going to be any immediate instant fix.  But this card leaves us with a healthy dose of reality and the truth -- something that you have not experienced for quite a while.  It's time to pay the piper, put on your big girl/boy panties, roll up your sleeves and go to work to put your finances (and your life) back on track.
