A reading, please?

[manstranger]

I don't know if theres a special thread for this, if there is point me in that direction.

But, since i don't see it, could i have a reading on my career, its future, and my success in it and other fields? I'm studing computer programming now, but teaching with an english major and law are fields i'm also interested in.

Thanks!

Merry Meet-
I am going to attempt to do a reading for you right now.
Although I have been reading tarot for about 7-8 years, I am by no means amazing or anything. But for you, I will try my best! :)
Blessed Be-

I will hurry up and run and take a shower (because I stink like food... I work in the cafeteria of my dorm) and then I will do your reading. Is that ok?

[manstranger]

Sure.

Please remember, this is my first time doing a reading over the internet and that I am still very new at this...

Work/Career Spread

Card number 1 -
Why you chose the career? The Empress (Inverted)
This card speaks of light, truth, the unravelling of involved matters, and public rejoicing.
I believe that the reason you chose the career you are in now is because you wanted very much to gain a lot of knowledge, or to make sense of certain aspects of your life. I am assuming you also chose your career because by gaining the knowledge, truth and light that you would get through this career, you would also gain the attention of others around you.

Card number 2 -
Am I on the correct Pathway? Seven of Wands
This card is a card of valour, for, on the surface, six are attacking one, who has, however, the vantage position. On the intellectual plane, it signifies discussion, wordy strife; in business-- negotiations, war of trade, barter, competition. It is further a card of success, for the combatant is on the top of his enemies who may be unable to reach him.
I believe that what it is saying is that you are definitely a man of honour and valour and that in the "Pathway" that you are currently pursueing you are someone who is above all of his competitors or above the rest of his co-workers. It sounds like if you keep on this "Pathway" that you will be successful and will come out on top (so to speak).

Card Number 3 -
What is the main obstacle facing me? Nine of Wands
It is a card of expecting opposition, and in that aspect is a card of delay, suspension and adjournment.
I believe that perhaps you are in a career where you are constantly in opposition to others, or perhaps that you feel like you are in competition with other co-workers. Although you will and probably always will come out on top, it may cause problems with them, so be careful. As long as things work out well with either your competitors of coworkers you will excel in your career.

Card Number 4 -
What is in my favour? The Magician (Inverted)
Magician represents powers unleashed by the new moral code, resulting from tapping the energy of the underlying desires.
I believe you are connected with your inner most desires, which could be used in your favour if used correctly.

Card Number 5 -
How can progression be maintained? Four of Pentacles
This card indicates a period of financial security, but a warning not to focus solely on material wealth. An inheritance or a winning, also a pay-rise or some stocks or bonds maturing. Security for your future is important to you now and you may look at ways to secure your next egg for the future.

Hope this helps....

Thanks. Things are making sense, but it took awhile for me to reply.

Yep, constant competition with my co-workers, who are also my co-singers. However, i got a score of 98 out of 100 this time, so the vantage point deffinatly is speaking to me.

I think the next egg is the enesamble ... they get so much more than us lowly 100 person group. They only have 18, and thats considered large for that group.

Thanks! You helped alot.
