Readings - Goody!

[Silverwitch]

Hi Everyone, I saw your request for subjects for Tarot Readings and would like to take you up on it. I am female (at least I was until I did the Gender Test!!), and my sign is Scorpio.

I'd like a general reading if possible, as I'm kinda in a state of flux!!

[Dagda Moon~Lily]

Okay....I'm shuffling now....give me a minute!!

Waiting with baited breath!!! :bigredgri

Okay, this is what the Tarot has to say....


Past: knight of Cups
present: 4 of pentacles
future: 8 of pentacles

You've possibly received news of some sort recently. I feel alot of moodiness with this card. Emotions in an uproar. Knights bring in alot of energy and at times may prove to be more than you feel you can handle.

No, you are cornering yourself off from the outside world. You are trying to protect your heart and straighten out your head. Anyone trying to interfer with this process may get the 'bulldog' approach from you. (not being very nice). You want to be left to your thoughs and your healing. You are trying to stand on solid ground. You have your walls in place and you will only come out when you feel the time is right. Unfortuneately, with self preservation comes the price of loneliness and possibly some bitterness.

Next, you must focus. Pay attention to detail. You need to tie up loose ends and move on to the next project. Again, this card also shows isolation. This card indicates to me that the task is nearly done. It's taken time and effort, but the end results are magnificent! Remember to take your time though...and work out the details!

Okay. That is my reading for you.....was it a hit or miss?

Thanks Dagda, you pretty much hit the nail on the head, particularly with the 4 of pentacles! Every time I try and come out of my box, something (usually health wise) knocks me straight back in again. It's been going on soooo long. You know what they say about banging your head on a brick wall - well with each bang, it's getting harder to go back for another one - I'm getting tired and feeling old. The "bulldog" bit hit home - ouch! And the terrible isolation, even though I am surrounded by loving family and friends - I feel so strangely alone. (If I were 10 no make that 35 years younger - I would say that "no one understands me" - boo hoo!!)

Not sure about the "news" with the Knight of cups. Could relate to several things, but can definitely go with the moodiness and energy (wow)

As for the future,(8 of pentacles), I can go along with that as well, and have had it said to me before. I just wish I knew which loose ends to tie up and what new project to start!!

Thanks so much - I will now "ponder somemore on the truths I've been told".

Love and Light

Thanks for the feed back!! Reading tarot feels a bit like walking the tight rope....scared you'll lose your balance and fall! I'm glad I made it across with this one!!

I was feeling alot of negativity from the 4 of Pentacles!...a really sour outlook. I hope that's not what you contain! If so honey...rid yourself of the negativity! That can prolong an illness!

Thanks again!

Hi Silverwitch!!

Thought I'd pull a card for you while I had a moment. The question I asked is what can you do differently to help you come out of the state you are in and get through this time.

The Hanged Man - this indicates that you need to find your inner peace. You need to be in a time of suspension. He is hanging upside down so he sees the world in a differnt way and he seems to be meditationg like that. This all indicates you need to take the time to look at all aspects of life in a different light and look within yourself to find your inner peace. Although his hands are bound at this time a lovely rose vine grows down his leg and a red rose blooms at his heart. These are signs of hope to come. You can get through this but you first need to follow the advise of the hanged man.

Good luck..sending your peace...

Hi Silverwitch, I was shuffling my cards while I was reading Dagda's and Amora's interpretations and two fell out just as I had finished reading Amora's! This often means something ~ I was going to ask what would happen if you did follow Amora's card and let everything go and be carefree...

King of wands: This card represents Aries, its a quite firey, physical and sexy card! This telling me that once you free yourself from all your 'troubles' you will either feel much more invigorated yourself and positive about your own ambitions and desires or that you will get the support of a man that will set your heart on fire again and be there to support and give you new energy 100%.
This is a great card in my opinion for energy and social aspects too! Which is whats you were talking about with Dagda :)

I also got the Four of Cups: which shows three girls whispering to one another underneath a temple!! ~ I think this is telling you that you need to get out, talk and be there for your family more ~ this will help yourself and them at the same time. The one in the middle looks sad ~ I think thats you, but the other two are there for you.. belive in yourself and others around you, dont shut them out as you are shutting doors to yourself too. Be there for them and they will be there for you.. open up and you will be free!

:sunny: Love and Light

[Silverwitch]

Thank you all so much for your imput. Yes, I can take everything!!

Amora, Silver Venus and Dagda Moon Lily, here goes with some feed back. The Hanged Man has been hanging over my head for the last three years. I moved from somewhere where I had lived for 28 years, to a place I had always wanted to live. I don't regret it, but I left behind my coven (which broke my heart), my eldest son and grandchildren (quite glad to not see quite so much of them!) and a way of life familiar to me.

Within two months of the move, instead of clambering the cliffs, surfing the sea and generally living my dream, I was diagnosed with osteo-arthritis in my spine, and both hips. My world disintegrated. As a result of a skating accident when I was 21, I became disabled over night at 47, lost my career, and have been unable to work in a formal sense ever since. (I never know from one day to the next, whether I will be able to move, or be riddled with pain) Hence, the "suspension" and "healing". I have come to terms with it to a certain degree, but it has been very hard and I am floundering as to where and to what, I should now put my energies.

Yes, I know I carry a lot of negativity. I'm sure I am just one of those people who sees the glass half empty (what glass!!) and have spent most of my life working at altering my perception, with varying degrees of success.

"Being there for my family" made me smile. I married at 16, had my first baby at 17 and have "been there for my family" ever since, and do feel a bit "when's it my turn", even though I know that is in my own hands, and feel that my life has been "used up" by my family. (Terrible to admit, and it sounds as if I hate them, which I don't).

So, all in all, you were all incredibly accurate. I particularly didn't say that I am actually a professionally qualified Tarot Reader (Cons.BAPs) as I didn't want to put anyone off and after all what's in a title. But perhaps it will give you all confidence when I tell you that I am a Tarot Assessor and "vett" prospective Tarot readers applying for qualification in Britain. (It's getting to the stage here where you have to be qualified to sweep the streets!). So I know all about that "going in cold" and how much feedback is appreciated! Thanks once again to you all, and feel free to keep going if you wish! My motto in life should be "Physician Heal Thyself!" :bigredgri Love and Light to you all

[Dagda Moon~Lily]

....You sneaky vixen you!! :D I'm glad you withheld that information! I would have been alot more nervous and probably flubbed up the interpretations!! :D

Doing a cold reading is very difficult, but there is something driving me to learn the Tarot, and that I will do!! ~~ I have to trust that the cards will inspire my intuition! It's taken me 5 years to realize I want to do this without the books at hand, so I've started to learn keywords and let the pictures speak to me. The only time I refer to a book is when I feel totally stumped!!

If you have any advise or guidance you could lend us, it would be greatly appreciated!!

Thank you for the feedback!

Thank you in advance for the readings. :sunny:

[Silverwitch]

Me sneaky - nooooo :bigredgri

Throw away the book!! At the onset of learning, the book is a crutch, an aide memoire. There comes a time when the book, instead of being a crutch, becomes a hindrance. Over the years, my interpretation of the cards has broadened from the "orthodox book meaning". The essence is still there, but like an onion, each time I peel away a layer, there's another one there!!! It's all about trust (gulp!), in yourself and your ability. Believe me, I still sometimes feel physically sick before a reading, or demonstration, because being a control freak, "trust" doesn't come easily!!! As my old Tutor used to say, it's a bit like being on a diving board, over a swimming pool, blindfolded. You have to jump and trust the waters there!! It will be.

[Dagda Moon~Lily]

Okay, ...I said I'd take any advice....and that is pretty scary advice! You are right though. I found I've depended on the books too much! That is why I'm here, learning!! I decided it was time to do away with the books!! I want to be independant when reading! Trust=scared stupid!! :D ...but I'm going for it! :D Funny, I've gotten that advice more often than not!!....must be a sign!



Thanks!!

Duely noted! (my roots would have been showing just as badly if I had done the reading as an Aries!...when I know from the birthdate is should be Virgo!!)

shuffling for you now....
