Tarot Reading Swap

[maya]

As suggested by Myst here:

http://www.mysticwicks.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=14164

This thread is for anyone wanting a tarot reading. If you're looking for a reading first check and see if anyone here needs one. Then the two of you can swap readings (or stone casts, prayers, what ever you can offer in exchange). If no one is needing a reading just yet or you don't do tarot but would like to offer another service in exchange, post your request for a reading and the next person to come along can pick it up. This way we can get in some practice and take our fair share of turns.

~Maya

p.s. I'm going to try to do at least one or two readings a night as needed and time allows so don't be afraid to post a request. ;)

p.s.s. You don't need to ask if someone will do a reading, just post your question if there's no one to trade with and I'll pick up any that get left out.

[Silver Venus]

Thanks for posting this Maya :) I havent been around so much the last couple of weeks but I will try to be more next week. Its great that your offering to read for everyone here, its such fun adn very rewarding to get positive feedback :)

& I may take you up on your offer, ofcourse to offer a reading back for you in return ;)

:sunny:

[maya]

Certainly you may! I was out of commission last night while building my new computer but I'm up and running faster than ever and open for business so to speak. So ask away! I'll be looking forward to some time with my cards tonight.

~Maya

[maya]

I'll be home all night and bored so if you want a reading please post and I'll hop to it.

~Maya

[Earthcup]

I've never had a reading done by anyone or thing other than a computer or myself so this is really more a curiosity thing.

I'd like a reading to show me what I can do to generally improve things in my life over the next few months. Nothin' fancy!;)

I'd love to do a reading in return but I'm still pretty much a beginner even though I really love the tarot. Just so you know....:)

[maya]

Okie.. three card spread:

1 - Present - Four of Pentacles -

You have a lot of material things in your life that you're holding on to. Perhaps you are too concerned about money or the things you have but you don't realize that these things are taking away from your energy.

2 - What's in the near future - two of wands reversed.

There are surprises on the way and a chance for some spiritual growth... perhaps a communing with the divine or another like-mind that you feel a connection with.

3 - What you should avoid - Judgement reversed

Don't let the things that try to clutter your life get in the way of your chances for some magickal things to happen for you right now. Don't take the gifts you get for granted and don't let stress dull your awarness to the majesty of life.

I forgot to add that I'd like you to at least try a one card reading for me. Practice is what makes you better. =D

~Maya

[Earthcup]

Thanks! I have been worried about money too much lately, I need to make an effort to relax...

I think I can manage a three card spread...:)

Five of Wands: perhaps you've been trying to do too much lately, trying to juggle too many things at once?

Four of Cups:three cups are are turned over with one remaining, maybe you need to decide what's the most important thing for you to focus on now and let the others go?

Three of Swords:something is going to come up where you're going to have to make a possibly difficult decision between two opposites...

...anyway that's what I'm seeing. I hope this was helpful and thanks for the reading!:D

[maya]

Thanks! You were fairly spot on with that. I've got five web projects I'm trying to complete plus starting my own business and still working full-time during the day. It is a little overwhelming. I think prioritizing is definelty good advice at this point. I'm not sure what the 3 of Swords is talking about, perhaps it's something that I'm not aware of just yet since I'm too focused on all those projects. :) Good job!

~Maya

[Topazz]

Well, you folks were certainly up late last night... er, this morning? So none of you are on-line now. I would love to trade readings with some of you. I find it hard to see clearly when doing them for myself, guess my Ego gets in the way. ( ;

Oh, yes, I use both tarot and the aquarian runes.

[maya]

If you want a reading you don't need to ask.. just post a question and one of us will pick it up ;)

~Maya

[Topazz]

Ok, anyone who wants to take a stab at this: I'm very satisfied in my current "job", and I feel I'm really needed to be doing this job at this time. But I'm a little worried about being able to pay the bills once the divorce is final. Should I be looking for a "real job" or can I wait until my granddaughter is a little older?



Anyone want me to check out the runes for them?

[Nina]

I pulled a single card for you, as advice. The card I drew was the Page of Pentacles. Yes, money and security are definitely on your mind! The Page is bringin you new ideas on how to make sure you and your family are secure. I feel that you don't have to sacrifice what you enjoy doing to be secure, but you have to be realistic, and take a practical approach. You have to find the right solution, one that won't negatively impact your relationship with your granddaughter. The Page is holding the pentacle, as though he is giving it to you. I feel this is really important - hold on in there, I think something unexpected is coming that will give you that security.

I hope this helps Topazz - feel free to pm me if you want to talk further!!

I'd love you to read the runes for me - I have a very good friend (male - and yes, there is a little bit of a romantic sparkle there!) who's been away for a couple of weeks. I'd like to know if there is anything I need to know about the possible relationship!

Love and light to you:)

[Topazz]

Yes, thank you dearling, that does help. I have been feeling lazy and guilty about not looking harder for an outside job, but something has been holding me back as though the timing isn't right just yet. I will keep my eyes open for possibilities now, but hate to think that the message could be that my dad has died and I have come into my inheritance (which I would have to invest well to actually live on for more than a few years), but he has had one serious heart attack and never really bounced back.

Your reading:

I think you were asking about your friend's feelings and intentions, but what I got from the reading has more to do with your feelings. *soft smile* The fear of repeating a past, painful relationship is holding you back now. Just as in ritual we sometimes write the things we want to release on paper and consign them to the fire, if you are able to release the pain and regret you will be ready to cross a bridge to a new life, and maybe even a new relationship. But there is a part of you that must accept and love before you will be able to truly accept and love another.

bright blessings, Topazz

[Nina]

Yes, spot on. Thank you. I'm being very cautious, because I've been hurt (physically, emotionally and financially) over the past three years. I'm simply not able to trust him at the moment, and I keep thinking lots of negative things on how it could turn out... Well, the New Moon is on my birthday next week, so I think I might just actually do something about leaving the past behind during my ritual. Thanks Topazz, that was really helpful! {{{{Big hugs}}}} :D :D :D

[Nect]

I need a tarot reading done...I've been trying hard to do it again after having done one last night, but JUST when I shuffle my cards, my mood just went away - my domestic helper began to vacuum. Arrrrrggggghhhh! I'm such a beginner in tarot so a little distraction is enough to compel me to put away the spread coz I felt no pull to even look at what the cards were. Anyway, I have this little yarrow (it's actually plastic but mimicks the original yarrow sticks, something cute my mom picked up for me in a bookstore) sticks cylinder that I have used for divination. Unfortunately, that's all I can offer to swap for a reading (for now, that is, I'm working HARD on improving my tarot skills!)... Each stick has a number corresponding to a chapter in an accompanying booklet which tells of a story behind this number - sometimes this is Chinese history, sometimes Chinese folklore. And each chapter then specifically has a comment for each health, money/business, love, and education - depending on what the querent asked. I really don't know if this works if it is done for someone else...but anyone interested in trying?

Here's my situation:
I have hopped three universities, ran into walls and never found what I wanted to study. All I've ever wanted to do was to cuddle up with animals - but now I'm thinking of pursuing a law degree (I do have this great dream to fight for legal rights for animals). Thing is, had this thought not occurred to me, I would be going on to study either philosophy and anthropology, which I have studied before (but never felt "me") but if I do return to studying these subjects I know I'm doing it so that I can get out of university and start doing hands-on work with animal protection. I need to decide where I REALLY want to go, coz hopping another university would, heh, give my parents (and myself) another nervous breakdown...and I want to end this apparent "curse" of never finding my goal...and worse, is this urge to pursue a law degree only another illusion? Is IT even what I want to do?

I truly, truly appreciate your even taking the time to read this!

Nect

[Earthcup]

I don't have my cards on me tonight but if you don't mind some straight intuition type advice...

Have you considered getting a degree in something you can build a career with and then pursuing the rest of your intrests on your own? You've got your whole life ahead of you, no need to know everything at once! Anyway that's my two cents....;)

[Earthcup]

Oh and I'm glad my reading was helpful! Yours was spot on maya!

Today I've been reading really good fiction, listening to good music and enjoying the first thunderstorm of the spring and I'm feeling much more relaxed and creative!:D

[Nect]

Yeah, I see what you're saying Earthcup. Thing is, my passion for animals is VERY strong...and as far as career goes, I personally hate the idea of money (though I need it and want it) because it has ruined so much of Life...I would hate seeing myself pursuing a career that doesn't relate to restoring Life (yeah, I know, I can start sounding lame at times...but this animals and Nature deal is too close to my heart to be placed into the 'personal interests' or hobbies section.). And this feeling is almost getting too strong that if I don't actively DO something about it, I'm gonna explode! Help!

Nect

[Earthcup]

College isn't for everyone. *shrugs* Maybe you should pursue your intrests in animals and nature and find work that makes you feel good(with enough pay to live on! lol) Your parents might freak but you could always head back to college later...

Or you could be a vet. Which is a lot of college! lol

[Nect]

I agree completely. I really don't enjoy uni, but, unfortunately, we're still in the Cusp, and what I want to do with animals is firstly to get people to listen...and to do that, I know having a chain of titles behind my name would be helpful (I know, I'm not being completely true to myself this way, but I have to work on the practical side if I want to make genuine animal rights happen). Until we are all comfy in the Aquarian Age, I will need to have a uni degree (as far as learning goes, I don't find much wisdom in university, but that's just my experience)...which sucks, but a fact I choose to accept. *sighs* I know I have options, just not sure if *most* of these options have appeared yet...
Yeah, I have thought of becoming a vet (that was my dream career as a kid), but I'm not too inclined towards science...

OK...sorry, people! Didn't mean to get SO off topic! :D

Nect

[Earthcup]

If you're feeling a little adventurous you could take off a year and do volunteer work or join a treesit or something and then decide what you want to do.. Maybe some time off campus could give you some space to think and learn about all the career options out there... there's a lot of different fields out there that might intrest you...

Really it's whatever your heart is telling you to do. I'm sure you'll figure it out!

I'm into informal education so I'm slightly biased, can you tell? :D

[Nect]

Ya, I can tell! :D So am I! Guess what? I actually have withdrawn from my uni in January because I couldn't breathe and now I'm working with the SPCA, HK's Laboratory Animal Defenders (our current project is removing the rat dissection from the Bio syllabus - we should know of the result soon...this struggle has been going on for over a decade now) and other animal rescues contact me whenever they need me... It's SO much better than university (well, I'm refering to this last one I went to...it was HORRIBLE).


Really it's whatever your heart is telling you to do. I'm sure you'll figure it out!
And my heart's telling me to get a law degree... (ok, this is good, I found a way to get back on topic! :lol: ) but *something* is holding me back (now, I make it sound as if I *will* be accepted by the school! typical dreamer I am...), which is why I'm looking in the tarot direction. I make it sound as if I can just 'do' law whenever I feel like, eh? teeheehee

Nect

[Earthcup]

hmm.. maybe it's just fear of the unknown? Law can be pretty tough...

*finds deck*

Queen of Cups: I'm seeing a person who would be great with kids and animals, very kind and honest and absolutely no reason why they shouldn't do well in law school... lol

Maybe you should wait for maya or someone else who's had more experience to do another reading or get a different interpretation from this one....

Whatever you choose lots of luck! :)

[Nect]

Thanks Earthcup! ;)

Nect

[Nina]

I'm going with the card Earthcup pulled for you Nect, and here's a little more that I get from it. I think this is a card that's giving you advice. You have all the empathy and compassion you need - that's the water elelment bit - but you need to control it, and focus it. In the Rider-Waite Deck, the Queen is focussing hard on a very ornate Cup. My humble opinion is that the hard study for a law degree will take you away from your dreams of being the enimal's champion, at least for a while, and I don't think that's what you need. You feel that something needs to be done RIGHT NOW, not in 5 or 6 years time. This may be a phase you are going through, of course, but it's extremely strong.

I think you are on the right track with the SPCA. What career opportunities do they offer? Perhaps they have formal training courses they recommend? Focus is the key issue here. Try and find someone within the SPCA who you respect and admire, and talk the issue through with them.

Just my lil' ol' take on it!!

Blessings to you!

[Nect]

Thank you, Earthcup and Nina! :D

I know, I need focus...I tend to think WAY ahead of myself. I actually managed to do a reading last night and interestingly enough, Queen of Cups was my bonus outcome (I did Marion Weinstein's version of the Celtic Cross, where she adds two bonus outcome cards should the first be inconclusive)!

I feel more focused already...thanks again!

:heartthro Nect

[maya]

I'm sorry, my computer was in a state of 'broke' all weekend. If you still need help Nect let me know. Earthcup and Nina, you're both doing a great job! :thumbsup:

~Maya

[maya]

Okay, I guess I'll give all of you who are looking for a chance to read for someone a question. I've been having some serious fits of depression and anxiety lately and I'd like some ideas of why and what I can do about it. I've actually started eating better and working out more often and I still meditate on a regular basis. I've always experienced these periodic depression/anxiety waves but nothing I do seems to have any affect on them.

~Maya

[Earthcup]

I get that too, I don't know if it's SADD or what, but Monty Python and Whose Line Is It Anyway? seem to be the only things that help..:D Usually it just has to follow it's course though, like a fallow period I guess...

[Myst]

Curious. Does anyone else think it would be easier to start a new thread for someone's reading, rather then chatting in this thread - people's requests or offers might get lost in the chat here otherwise?

[maya]

I don't think my swap thread is going to work. It was worth a shot though. I suppose we can unstick it now. Perhaps there just needs to be a stuck post on rules for asking?

~Maya

[Myst]

No I think it will work, I just think it'd work better if people said "ok I'll do a reading for you, you can do a reading for ___" and started a new thread with the readings.

I'd rather this thread stay so people could concretely post and trade whatever.

[Topazz]

Not sure now if this is the right place to post this, but I sure could use another perspective, some advice, a reading, please.

I am currently embroiled in a situation where something I said (wrote) was taken as an offence or insult, although I did not mean it that way. I don't like being defensive in this situation, but I like even less being falsely accused of attacking someone, or of trying to start trouble. I have apologized but others in the situation say I should just drop it. At this point I have refused to drop it because of the false accusations, it's not really that important whether my apology is accepted or not. Anyone have any input on how I can improve the situation?

You can start another thread, or PM me, or send me e-mail. Thanks.

[maya]

Accept the fact that some people like being targets and you were the victim of that. It sucks that some people are always looking to play the victim and will use situations to manipulate people and get more empathy for themselves. If you ignore this person and stop feeding them they'll look for someone else to be 'hurt' by.

~ Maya

[Silver Venus]

hmm its complicated isnt it Myst ;)
Id say ~ yeah it would be better.. but then whould the whole of this board be swaped with reading requests and answers again and would we loose some of the learnign discussion threads along the way because of this?
Maybe each of us could start our own swap thread where we just swap our own readings with who ever wants readings in them? Or is that too seperate? :bug:

[Myst]

I'm *so* confused. :bug: :crylaugh:

hehe whatever works

Hi Topazz,
I agree with Maya, and will happily pull a few cards to answer too...
until we sort out whats happening with different threads or not Ill answer here so not to confuse the situation more ;)..
I thought Id draw 2 cards for what should be done by you ~

Ok while I was shuffling the 7 of cups fell out, this is a worry card, so by this I can tell that you are letting this affect you quite allot and its troubling you more than usual, but things like this dont normally happen to you because your a nice gal.. so ofcourse its troubling you.

When I drew two, these were ~ The Magician and the 8 of wands ~ each are very powerfull cards taking of power and action.

The Magician, is reminding you that you have the power over your emotions and thoughts and even actions ;) You can do anything you want to do, just make sure it is what is really right for you and what you really want to do to get over this and start being yourself again. He is also saying ~ that you are powerful, probally much more than you think and give your self credit for, so just be strong hun and stand your ground if thats what you have to do...
but make sure its the right stand as just ignoring her/him is just as powerful as battling it out.

The 8 of Wands, is a action card, to take action and to really go for something, I think this is speaking of you really explaining your point of view and getting that across to this person so you can hopefully both understand each other and make some progress instead of getting emotional and angry and letting this override what is really important ~ both of your opinions.
Id say this is also reinforcing the magician power, saying to follow what ever action course you think is best and best for you and your head!

Good luck :sunny:

[Kashmir]

Hello....even tho I am new...could someone please do a reading for me?
I just moved to The Netherlands with my husband last October from the states. We have been married for over 3 years and was wondering what the future holds for me here...like pregnancy...jobs...if anyone can help...that would be great~S~

[Myst]

hehe do you have a tarot reading, rune reading, some other divination method, or something else in mind to trade...? :p

[Topazz]

Hi, Kashmir, merry meet. I did a rune reading and PM'd you the results. See what ya think?

[maya]

Yeah... I've been keeping track and making sure nobody is getting left out so everyone (in theory) should just be able to go to the most current topics and catch all the action there.

~ Maya

[Emerald Oak]

I've been giving myself a reading or two every day now, and I've noticed a couple of patterns lately.

First, is the man. I keep getting cards that represent men, like the Emporer, Heirophent, etc. It usually shows up in the "source" spot (like, for the Celtic Cross, it's the first card drawn). At first, I suspected it represented my dad. That was pretty much confirmed thanks to the surrounding cards, which suggested new found wealth, prosperity, etc. Dad's an artist and his career's really taking off.

The other pattern I notice is the number two. The two is normally represented by children, but a couple of card caught my attention, both in the same reading. First was the Heirophent card, which showed two children praying or something to a man in the middle (my dad). The second was a card showing a man in a chariot with two horses, a white and black one (forget which card it was). I'm pretty sure one of the two represents me, but I have no idea who the second one is supposed to be. I'm also a little puzzled as to which one of us is the white horse, and which one is the black horse.

Any opionions are welcome :)

[Myst]

A sibling? Your mom? A friend? A close family member? A friend of your dad's?

[Topazz]

I usually see The Heirophant as a teacher and the children are learning from him. So if you feel that The Heirophant represents your father, maybe you could benefit from some advice from him?

And in The Chariot I see a lot of symbolism about balances between things, i.e. light and dark, but when things in your life are in balance and pulling together like the two horses, you can really start to go places.

:smile:

[maya]

They may well both be you, just diffrent aspects of you. It could be something like your younger/older self?

~ Maya

[tangerine]

Hopefully I'm posting this in the right place. I couldn't figure out whether or not you guys decided to keep using this thread for reading requests!

I would like a reading about my situation with my boyfriend of 8 years. We're "taking a break" right now, and I'm curious to see if the cards have any insight.

I'd be more than happy to reciprocate!

Alexis

[Nect]

Hey Alexis!

Here's my try :D :

The Situation of Your Relationship

Five of Wands: The five men in the card each hold a wand, each raises theirs into the air and strikes their wand against another's. The men are not in any battlefield, nor does the fight look vicious at all - it actually looks kinda petty. Their faces are not fierce, rather, they look distressed and some look tired as if the wand they're holding is getting a bit too heavy for this 'fight' to go on any further.

Your relationship with your boyfriend may have wanted this break you are taking because of a minor conflict or a clash of minor details. But the sum of these minor clashes sufficed to convince you and your boyfriend that this situation is as serious as you have taken it to be. What prompted this break - an all-out fight, so harsh it shattered your feelings for each other, or was it merely a (or a number of) disagreement(s) over small things? Like the men in the card, the break may have be signaled by both of your exhaustion. Both of you may have been burned out by the relationship. Small disagreements blocked the natural flow that would be expected of a healthy relationship - but, yes, it is just a block, no one got seriously injured.

Outcome

Anyone looking at the Five of Wands would see that those guys would save themselves a lot of energy if they, quite simply, put down their wands. Their wands almost seem to have reached a deadlock - you hit my wand this hard, I'll hit yours back just as hard, the same energy exerted on both sides = no movement, everyone stands still but much (too much) strength is required to merely maintain this stillness, this deadlock. Why bother? Why don't everyone just put their wands down and go home?

Tangerine, from what I was able to see from this card, I think you have done the right thing to have taken a break. You needed one. All the strength that both you and your boyfriend fed into the relationship yielded not a happier relationship, but yielded a "maintained but stagnant" relationship.

I don't know if there is anything else in particular you'd like to ask...if this reading was anywhere near accurate :lol: post more questions and I'll do another reading for you.

Nect

[Emerald Oak]

...I've had a sneaking suspicion that the second one represented my brother. I've only met him once in my entire life (atleast, once that I can remember), so I really have nothing to work off of here.

Oh, and the Tarot can help with just about any question you have, as my experience suggests. Just try not to brew any love potions :)

[tangerine]

Nect, thanks so much! Yes, our relationship has been very stagnant for a long time, which was one of my biggest problems with it. It was always the same sh*t over and over. I am curious though to see what may happen as a result of this break, so if you wouldn't mind pulling one more card, I'd be grateful!

Let me know if there are any specific things you'd like to know. You can PM me if you like!

My Question: Love and relationships

A friend of mine, vapine, wants a reading and she doesn't care for mine. Says I know her too well. I'd really appreciate if one of you could give her a reading!:D

Just a general or on a specific issue?

[Earthcup]

about whether she and this guy will ever get together...

she started a thread on here..

thanks Mist!:D

[MistOfTheSea86]

thanks Mist!:D

Okay a three card reading

Past: (reversed) Five of spears: In the past your friend was decieved by someone wasn't she? SOmeone may have told her that he loved her or something of that nature and lied just to get something from her. Did something along these lines happen? If so, I am thinking she may be incredibly lonely and not looking at all her choices. Rushing into things.

Present: Page of Cups: Somethinghas come your way, or is coming your way very shortly. Something that harbors good news in the form of a friend or creative doing. Something that she may have wanted romantic/Creative could finally be beginning to bloom into something more. It could also indicate herself advancing in something.

Future: Six of swords(reversed): Whomever this could be, could have a hidden agenda of sorts. Or is besides everything else, HIGHLY CONFUSING. The future states that your friend will end up still being confused about things, and will be stressed. Has this person been giving advancements that have led her to this decision? This card is also saying to keep her guards up, someone may give her harrasement. Nonetheless be careful. This relationship could have potential but I sense an underlying force within it. If she pursues she may get it, but the guy may not be completely truthful with her. Tell her to keep her guards up if she pursues it. Otherwise I would tell her to move on...

Hope this makes any sense:)

My Question: Love and relationships

Will do one for you tonight & will PM it later on. :)

[Nect]

OK, Alexis, here we go:

Death: A skeleton dressed in armor rides on a white horse. Beside the horse is a body laying still. Before the horse is a kneeling child who looks directly at the skeleton; a kneeling woman who turns her face away from the skeleton; and a standing man, who doesn't look into the eyes of the skeleton but looks straight in front of himself at his own eye level, he seems to be making a plea. Yet further in the background are two towers, in between them a flaming sun is rising. The people and the skeleton seem to be quite unaware of the sun's light.

Like the standing man who does not look into the eyes of the skeleton out of fear, you are not sure whether or not you are ready to look into a future that will no longer have a place for your boyfriend. Although you have decided to take a break, you are still unsure of that step - was it right? What if I was wrong? This uncertainty is somewhat reflected in your very desire to ask for a tarot reading to tap into the unknown. Death - the term itself is frightening, and the skeleton that symbolizes this word is not easy on the eye either. But upon closer inspection of the skeleton, one would discover that neither its gesture/posture is frightening. The fear melts away when we don't give it power and look into the heart of this illusory horror - there is *no* horror, in fact, it lives only if you give in life in your mind and heart. By overcoming this, we see something else - the rising sun far in the background of the card.

Death is the turning of a page, an inevitable turn in your life that may appear daunting. Death is the beginning of life. You have left the past behind you and are now ready to move on. Do not lend your energy to the worry of "what if this and that happens after I break up with him?". Concentrating on that worry would only hinder your search for happiness. Instead, focus your energy in seeing that bright sun. The future is bright, don't let it escape your senses.

I hope that helped! ;) I know, I do tend to be a little redundant with descriptions...teehee...

I don't have anything I'd like to know at the moment...I appreciate very much how you trust me with the readings! :)

tee hee. :D

No problem!

[shnen]

:confused:
Right now I seem to be going through a really hard time. I just feel so scattered and out of sorts about everythig and coud really use a reading. I have never had one before, nor can I yet return the favour (but will as soon as I study more - I promise!).

If you need more info please let me know, otherwise, your help is very much appreciated!

[Nect]

I could do a reading for you...but it may be as vague as the info you provided...

I'm actually really sleepy now, so I'll get back in seven to eight hours!

And don't worry about reciprocating this one... ;)

Nect

[shnen]

Thanks! I just don't want to ask too much... but for a better reading here it is: you can choose one or I guess however it works... thanks!

I am looking for a place to live with a friend, it is just so uncertain, I have a bad situation here now with my landlord and just want to get out. and she thinks she is going to ose her job tomorrow, although there is this perfect place we saw yesterday... i have to get out of this basement before I go insane!

and for relationships I am interested in this one guy, but keep getting mixed signals from him. we only really chat when I'm there which honestly has been twice. I have two broken engagements and i guess I am just wondering if anything will ever work.

I have also come (and have to still) a long way with my studies in Wicca.. I just feel so unmotivated, which is not like me at all...
my job, I feel unmotivated, I like what I do, and know I cannot leave, but for some reason something is holding me down.

I have also been dealing with a lot of friends pains lately.

I am happy, but for some reason I just want to cry.

I dunno if that is good enough or what you were looking for.

I really appreciate this Nect, you have no idea how much!
:)

[Nect]

That was just fine, shnen. ;)

Housing Situation

The Moon: A dog is howling, a wolf gazing up at the Moon gritting his teeth, and a crayfish holds his claws up to the Moon. Though the Moon is shining, her eyes are shut, and she frowns as if ignoring (or attempting to ignore) the animals below her.

Although the place that you and your friend saw yesterday was 'perfect', look carefully at all the signs around *you* - do they signal a green light? The Moon is a card of illusions, uncertainty, yet hope at the same time. Is the prospect of getting out of where you are living now and moving into this new place too good to be true? If it is, then it probably is too ideal for the prospect to manifest itself. However, that does not mean give in to your landlord. Rather, what this card may be indicating is that although moving into this perfect place *now* or *anytime soon* is not possible, it *is* possible to disconnect yourself from this landlord and move into a new place somewhere down the road. Don't push things too hard. The Moon tells you that if you go at the pace you are going dealing with this, you will fall into illusion. This card also tells you that the anxiety you feel now is not unwarranted - you are, after all, stepping into the unknown...but the Moon is here to guide you, to tell you there is nothing to fear if you give heed to Her advice of "don't let your dreams swallow you, but don't let hope die either." Give the housing hunting some time, I would think. You'll probably find a better place, or what's most probable is that certain events will pop up making you go, "Thank goodness I didn't move into that place!" or "I'm so glad I haven't moved out yet." What this card has revealed may be difficult to accept since you may have been dreaming (with great comfort) about what it would be like once you move into this new place. Keep your eyes open, distinguish illusion from reality, fear from hope, and stay alert for other signs that may give you better advice of the next step to take.

Relationship

The Hanged Man: Despite the upside-down position in which the man is hung, his posture is relaxed, and around his head shines a halo of light.

What would you see if you looked at things from a different perspective? The Hanged Man has found wisdom by seeing the world upside-down, as is indicated by the halo. The way you positioned your query revealed your lack of confidence in relationships - you start by stating the prospects, I feel the hope you embody when you wrote "I am interested in this one guy" but you quickly allow yourself to plunge into uncertainty. You are being held down by these old fears that still haunt you from your broken engagements. Let go. By letting these old fears dissolve you will see the world in a new light and you will triumph. This card does not call to me to tell you specifically whether or not this guy you're interested in will be in a relationship with you. That isn't the heart of the problem. The heart of the problem is your *perspective* towards relationships in general - once *this* changes, so will your life. And once you allow yourself to turn your view upside-down, relationships (when you are ready and will for them to appear) will spring up naturally and you will deal with them with the valor that have renounced and placed into the hands of "hopelessness with relationships." Reclaim that strength and you (and your love life, perhaps) shall shine like the enlightened hanged man.

That *something* which is holding you down

The Lovers: Do you ever feel a pull to unite with something? Almost like a magnetic attraction that is tugging strongly at you but you just don't know what or where the heck it is? Although this card would usually represent love, right now I see it as merely union. A part of you is drawn to the Divine or the spiritual (like the woman in the card gazing up at the angel) yet a part of you is still drawn to the material world, I believe symbolized by the man in the card. Your lack of motivation with Wiccan studies may be a result of your material (or un-spiritual...that sounded weird..!) worries - finding a place to live, an attraction for a guy, and/or other things that only you would know when you sit down to think about it. Your lack of motivation for your job is, in turn, a result of your 'on-hold' relationship with your own spirituality. But as Wiccans, we know the duality of things. Instead of letting either side tug at you with such strength that leaves you spinning, let the spiritual flow into the physical and vice versa. Merge the two and search for balance. Wicca is not a *study* per se when you *are* Wiccan (as opposed to a person doing a thesis on Wicca as a religion, for example). Wicca is a lifestyle, and perhaps you feel you have reached a plateau of 'studying' Wicca - if that's how you feel, then it is a signal that it's time to *live* Wicca. Examine the Rede closely, the Threefold Law, and all other aspects of the tradition that you follow. Your lack of motivation is perhaps similar to a person reading a lot of "How-to" books who never *performs* the practicals. Perhaps try to incorporate your Wiccan beliefs into your job, too. That may be a start.


I am happy, but for some reason I just want to cry.
Perhaps you are happy, or would be happier if you found balance... And it is not unlikely that you have absorbed some of your friends' negative energies. Perhaps try grounding or just meditate and set up a protective shield against these energies. It's great to help your friends until they (often accidentally) drain you of your positive energy.

OK, that was a bit long! :D I hope they kinda rung true to your right brain!

[shnen]

Thank you Nect!

That was really good.
I know I have a lot to deal with in my relationship areas.
As far as being Wiccan goes, I know I am, it's just hard somedays because I get confused by certain things, growing up christian, it's like trying to wipe out most of my past, what I was raised with.

I think I will have a good long meditation tonight when I get home...
Thanks again Nect!:)

[Nect]

:D No problem, shnen!

[maya]

I just wanted to congratulate you all. You're doing such a fine job of keeping these threads up that I haven't got a chance to do many readings! :D

~ Maya

[Lavender]

I wonder if we should post an invite in Just Talk? That would get people here! :D Heh! First, we didn't have enough readers, now we don't have enough subjects! :p

[maya]

If you want it.. go for it!

~ Maya

[cybadiva]

This is just a tentative suggestion but why can't we keep a stuck thread for requests, then the reader can start a new thread entitled 'Reading for whoever' - or if the questioner would prefer a private reply then they could specify this in their original post - would this not work? Or has it already been tried before and failed? Sorry if this is a stupid suggestion, but I'm new here and surely allowances should be made:D (winning grin)

[Flaire-FireStar]

I usually PM the readings to the person anyway, but I think it's a great idea! :thumbsup:

[maya]

We basically decided that you should do what's best for you. You can post your reading here, start another thread or PM them. I do think that you should respond in this post that you're doing the reading though as this thread is stuck but the other's will leave the front page eventually. This way we know if someone has been read for without having to ask them again or search through pages.

[Nissala]

I am still new to wicca and Tarot but would appreciate a reading if possible.

there is a lot of "stuff" happening in my life at the moment. My brother -in- law moved in about six months ago on the assumption that he would only be there a month or two.
My husband and I are not getting along at all (we haven't even talked in over a week). His brother does no wrong in his eyes and my son catches the greif about things gone wrong. I feel I should leave the situation but am not 100% sure if I will be able to raise the money to do so.

My son ran away last week (he is back home now, thank goodness) but there is a situation with his girlfriend that is disheartening.

My job is unsure at this time due to budget cuts....

there is alot more going on but these are the major things at this moment.... I sure would appreciate some insight into some these, I am about ready to cry...Thanks

[Myst]

I actually suggested that before cybadiva. *shrugs* Whatever works. The Tarot forum won't blow up I guess :D

[cybadiva]

I've started a thread for readings for Nissala. :thumbsup:

Myst, my apologies - I must have missed your post first time around - but great minds think alike, eh? ;)

[fey]

"Heh! First, we didn't have enough readers, now we don't have enough subjects!"

Well, I've been putting off asking, because I don't want to impose, and I can't reciprocate, but if anyone needs a guinea pig, I'll be happy to comply. :)

I've been having a hard time dealing with an extemely immature, irresponsible ex (hasn't paid a dime of cs, constantly calling the house or my cell, emotionally abusive to my kids, ect). I consider myself a strong person, who can usually handle stuff like this, but I can feel myself just getting worn down by the constant negative energy he gives off. Any help?

[Topazz]

Hi Fey, I will start a new thread here with my reading for you.
Don't worry about recriprocating, somewhere down the line
you will share something with someone else.

[fey]

Thank you Topazz :)

[Myst]

Keep in mind, you don't have to reciprocate with tarot readings per se. If you know other forms of divination, you could use that. You might light a candle for the person who has given you a reading, help them out somewhere else (like in Green Room when they need a recipe, or help them with their website, or make them a cool graphic. Then again there's always the idea of "pay it forward" :D

cybadiva: ;)

[fey]

Thanks Myst :) I was thinking only in terms of reciprocating a reading. I'm sure I'll be able to help someone someday with something, lol. Even if it's only to direct them to the bathroom.

[Topazz]

Hey! directions to the bathroom can be very important! Just wait 'til you're a krone . . . ---->

[Flaire-FireStar]

:lol: Yeah... My bathroom's...uhm.. <-, ^, ->, ^^^, <- :D Got that?

[fey]

Hahaha

:rotfl:

[Topazz]

Okay, first <-, ^, ->, then, ^^^, then ^ . . . :confused:

Oh oh, I think I'm lost. HELP !



*chuckles * Maybe we should get back on topic?

[Jeleia]

I'm free to do readings.
I need to practice

[Nect]

Me! Me! Me! :lol:

I know, I know, I've been over-asking the tarot...but just one more reading can't hurt. :D

Nect

[Jeleia]

What do you want the reading on? Love? Career? Friendship?

[Jeleia]

Check your PM box :)

A quick reading please? Be glad to trade!

Just wondering what A. do I need to be aware of for the next few months and B. are things looking up or my mom?

Just PM me! Thanks!

[sunnytummy]

Hello, I'm new to this site but a friend recommended it. Just6 wanted to make contact and say hi really

[Dagda Moon~Lily]

Hello and welcome! :D

[Flaire-FireStar]

:wave: Hi Sunny! ( :sunny: ) and welcome to the boards! :)

[sunnytummy]

Hi Dagda and Flaire :-)

Yup, I do have a deck but still have to refer to books when reading as I'm still learning to interpret the cards. I see that some of you guys are exchanging readings as practice. I'd love to do that if anybody wants to. I'd really find it usefull.

So anyway, I'm relatively new to the pagan community, but I'm interested in crystals, the magical properties of herbs, tarot and the other more general wiccan stuff. Can I ask what you guys practice?

Speak soon :-)

[Dagda Moon~Lily]

Sunnytummy,

you could practice by sending a private message reading to Earthcup! Just look for someone asking for a reading, and jump in! :D

Actually Tangerine already gave me one but a second opinion is always welcome! Fire away! :D

[Jeleia]

I was wondering if I could bother anyone for a reading on my relationship with my boyfriend. Thanks.



I'll gladly do one in return.


Nect~ sorry hun, this is the first time I've check back on this thread since then. I'm going to look in my pm box and see if I can find a copy of it. I'm pretty sure I sent it... actully I was sure you replied too.. Anyways I'll check. :)

[Jeleia]

oh geez....

I didn't see the "found it" post... :)

Ill try and get one to you later on this afternoon :)

[Jeleia]

thanks hun :)



btw~ I'm leaving tomorrow for 3 weeks so I'll probably have to return the reading when I get back...

[BloodCrow]

I am a beginner at the tarot . I don't mind doing readings but being a beginner im afraid that i'll mislead someone ( i worry too much anyway though LOL). I have a girlfriend who lives in AZ. She recently just stopped talking to me, she didnt confront me about it but she hasnt called wont get online to talk or reply to my e-mail. We didnt meet online but we communicate mainly that way ..anyway i dont know if any of this information is relevant. But i really would like to know what is going on with her ( its really hurting me because i love her very much). I would appreciate a reading.

[Mithrea]

BloodCcrow I will get you one done tonight or tomorrow if that's okay. . .

[Mithrea]

Okay hon, I pm'd you :D

[Silver_Alhena]

bloodCrow, I'd be happy to do a reading for you - please contact me on silver_alhena@yahoo.co uk

I love doing tarot readings, and the deck i have are very accurate!

There is a deck I have that I would be greatful for a swap of - I have the celtic book of the dead, and they have never worked for me. If anyone has a non-traditional deck they could exchange for that, then that would be great. ( I bought them myself, and there is a superstition that tarot cards have to be given to you as a gift for them to work....)
I would prefer if the 'swapee' lived in the UK as that would minimise postal costs but any offers would be concidered. Please contact me on the email address above....

As of tomorrow I'm unemployed to start with...and the rest of my life seems pretty messy too.

I'd be happy to try and read for someone if you like.

Thanks

[Emerald Oak]

I'm getting some pretty strange readings. None of them make any sense, and they don't answer my most pressing questions. I've tried cleansing my tarot many times... It was just with incense smoke, but it was real thorough.

Any comments?

[Mithrea]

Emerald Oak, are you reading for yourself? Or are you having trouble with *all* the readings you do?

Sometimes you aren't getting the answers to the questions for a reason. PM me if you would like me to try. :)

[Emerald Oak]

See, I do all my own readings, but I don't use my tarot very often... Mabe once a month, or whenever I'm having a problem. Granted, having to answer questions through my own perceptiveness has had its positive effects on my awareness, but I'm still a little worried. I might need the tarot pretty badly someday, and if they don't come through, I don't know what I'd do. As for doing readings for everyone else, it's always been accurate (I often get "Wow, how'd you do that?" responses), although I haven't done any readings for anyone else in ages.

[Earthcup]

Guinea Pig Volunteer!

Wanna practice on me? Just general love and money stuff I'm curious about.

Will trade for like item! :T

[Witchy Cowgirl]

You know I come here often but didn't really realize this "swap" thing was here till I read a request for a reading in the regular threads.
Earthcup are you still willing to be a guinea pig?
If so I'd love to do a reading - when I get a quite moment, which around here, isn't often!:T

[Masamune]

jeeze i hate sounding like a newbie but how exactly can u preform an online reading... i posted this up no one gave me a good def. of one. for myself i find it impossible for me to preform one just cuz the way i do my readings.... first of all i spread out all of my cards onto the floor then i pick a few of them... hmm do u guys just keep all the cards together and then pick so many off the top? and the do the reading? hmm or am i doing a reading for myself wrong lol even tho that sounds crazy...

p.s. cowgirl u can do a reading for me :-p i would like to see how cool it is or what not...

p.s. cowgirl u can do a reading for me :-p i would like to see how cool it is or what not...


I shuffle my deck in my hands, thinking of the question being asked and who is asking it.....then I have the person cut the deck, if they are not present (ex. on-line readings) I think of the person and ask for the best cut for that person while I cut the cards two times (for 3 piles) put the three piles back together so the middle pile is on the last and the first is on bottom. (confused yet??!! lol) Then I just "deal" from the top of the deck in the order of the layout. :D

Even the way you do it....all you have to do is concentrate on the person that you are reading for and their question....select the cards and then type out your interpretation of the cards you have pulled. :D

~D

[Witchy Cowgirl]

Yep, what Dagda said. Just concetrate on what you know about that person, write your interpretation down, then type it and send it.

I'd be glad to read for you. Let me warn you that it might take a week or so for me to get the results to you. A dear real life friend has requested one just today so I'll do yours after I finish hers. It's hard for me to find alone time sometimes. I don't really like doing general readings so do you have a specfic quesion I can work with?

[Masamune]

its a general ? of mine but hmm and really harsh

why are people messed up?

but lol if thats not the type of ? u want uhh

i been wondering what my love life is all about/ if i shoudl not think about it... hmm just cuz i sorta "have someone" but should i wait or whatever or somehting.. im just confused alot and hmm it was intresting i did recieve a 7 of cups for one of my situations.. i dunno pick whichever one u want...

lol srry i guess thats 2 much detail..

[Witchy Cowgirl]

That's fine!
I'll get to it as soon as I can and will PM you the results.
Make sure you know how to use it by then!;)
I've started a thread for you here to help you figure it out.
Let us know there if you have more questions.

[Witchy Cowgirl]

Masamune,
You'll find the result of your reading in your PM's:)

[DreamSpell333]

Hey all, I would love to have a reading.

: I had my daughter in september, and she is starting to sleep more, and I was wondering if I should go back to work? We are doing alright with just my fiance working. I was thinking of going back tot he temp agency I worked for. also we have been thinking about finding an apartment to share with friends, on one hand I want to, and on the other i'm not so sure it would work out. Should we?

I can give someone a 3 card reading.

Thanks , and blessed be,


Dreamspell

[DreamSpell333]

I have another question... can anyone tell me where my tarot cards are? lol If i find them i can give u a reading back :) wish me luck! :) :) :)

[DreamSpell333]

ok, found my deck right after i had posted the last message. If was kinda weird, I pictured my cards,and thought of my fiances end table and there they were! :)

So i can give someone a reading, for a swap. I'll even try something more than a 3 sread if u want. I've been studying the dance dancer spread :))

blessed be,

Dreamspell

[Witchy Cowgirl]

So glad you foung your cards!
I will try to read for you tonight.

[Witchy Cowgirl]

DreamSpell, check your PM's;) !

[Bethra]

I'd love a reading if anyone is up to it.
I have quite a few questions but I'll limit for now to the two main problems.

Right question number one. I'm in a job that is makeing me very unhappy but I'm frightened to just leave as I would have no money but if I stay I risk getting more unhappy, I'm already back on the anti depression tablets but I'm trying to carry on in the hjope that the anti d's will make the whole thing more berable. My question is should I leave or should I stay and try to work through this difficult time.

Question number two. I'm in a long term relationship with a guy who I care deeply for but I'm just not sure the magic is still there. I don't know if I'm just holding onto him for fear of being alown or if we realy do have a future together. I'm also not sure if this is all relative to the depresion and if it is what should I do about it. Basicaly can someone tell me if there is a future to my current relationship or should I just move on with my own life and let him get on with his?

That's all realy so I'll wait for an answer when someone has the time.
Thanks

[Azure]

I might have some time tomorrow afternoon. If so I will take some time and read for you. I need to read for someone besides my friends ;)

[FaeRain]

Hi,

I've had a few weeks to spend with my new deck - Healing with the Faeries, and would like to offer to do a reading if anyone's interested. These aren't tarot cards, but I've found them to be very insightful.

Blessings,
FaeRain

[Bethra]

Thank you I'll be glad of the reading.

[Azure]

Bethra - I did a reading and will PM you :)

[Bethra]

Thank you Azure I will wait for your P.M. It's been a long time since anyone has done a reading for me.
Once again I seam to be owing so if anyone wants a reading let me know I'll be more than happy to read for them. I like to keep in practice
Thanks again

[Azure]

How weird! I typed out the whole of your reading last night, and sent it, and now there's no trace of it, and obviously you didn't get it. I have no explanation for that. . .

I will try to remember everything and retype it.

[DreamSpell333]

Hi everyone,

Is there anyone that you know of that can do a past life reading? I've had some weird dreams, and thought maybe it had soemthing to do with a past life. I did have one dream come true this week. I dreamt about a friends mother and that her car was taken or stolen. The day after i found out she was arrested for dwi and they impounded her car. Most of my dreams have just been really strange.and this morning i dreamt that i was in a large room,and was being jabbed or accupunctured. I'm going to start jotting my dreams down on paper..




bb,

dreamspell

[Witchy Cowgirl]

Here's where to get your past life reading done.
But I think shes taking a break right now.
http://www.mysticwicks.com/showthread.php?threadid=22104
She also posted somewhere how she does them so maybe someone elese has been practicing and can take you up on your request. Or maybe you'd like to try yourself.:)
http://www.mysticwicks.com/showthread.php?threadid=22146
AND you might try posting something in the DIVINATION forum. They can probably help you with your dream interpretation.

Hope this helps!:)

[wildwoodswoman]

Bethra, would you read for me? I don't know what information you need to do that over the computer, so please get back to me and let me know. Thankyou so much. :)

Hello! I'd like a reading--and of course I'm glad to return the favor. I can always use the practice. PM me and let me know what's up.

Yay!

[Pauley]

Maya & all others,

Hello, I am new here. This is my first posting. I have recently begun my spiritual journey. This has brought my casual interest in such things as tarot cards, runes, and the such to a new level and I have started to meditate and practice with my cards somewhat regularly.

The path that laid itself out before me to lead me here is a somewhat long story, and one day I will share it if anyone is interested, but for now, I would like to request a reading for anyone and though I do not feel totally comfortable with my knowledge level of the cards, I guess I could offer a reading in return. If anyone still wants to take advantage of that after making such a statement:)

Also, I have a Native American deck and a regular card deck. I would like any information anyone could offer about the regular card deck. I do not care for all of the layouts that were given in the book I purchased and would like to expand my choices.

I really enjoy my Native American deck-I definately feel a deeper sense of spirituality and wisdom from that deck.

Thank you for taking the time to read this and reply in advance and I look forward to chatting with all.

Blessings,
~Pauley

[Dagda Moon~Lily]

Welcome newbies! Always nice to see new faces around the forum! Feel free to jump into the conversations going on and there are a couple threads below that are offering readings! Take a peek! :D

[Laiste]

OK..so i haven't been to this forum in a while...but I really, really, really need a reading. I will certainly do a reading in return. What I need to know about is a current relationship and some advise I have gotten about it. Thank you in advance!!:D

[Cinnamon Girl]

Laiste, if you don't mind getting one from a relative Tarot novice and can wait until tomorrow night, I'll be happy to do one for you. :)

[Laiste]

I can certainly wait..thank you!!

[Lunacie]

Hello all. I would love to trade readings with someone. I can use the Hanson-Roberts tarot, the Crystal Ally deck, or the Kitchen Witch deck. If you don't have any preference then I will use the one that seems most fitting to the question. For myself, I'd just like a general reading, I don't have any specific questions at the moment.

[Cinnamon Girl]

Lunacie, I can do one for you as well tonight, if you'd like. :)

[Lunacie]

Thanks MoonOwl, that would be great. Do you want me to do one for you in return? I'd be glad to.

[Cinnamon Girl]

Thanks, Lunacie ~ I don't have any preference on the deck you use, but a general reading on the future state of my finances would be much appreciated.

I'll PM your reading later tonight ~ if there's any particular aspect of your life you'd like me to focus on, just let me know. :)

[Cinnamon Girl]

Laiste and Lunacie, I've PM'd your readings. :)

[Bethra]

Would anyone like a reading from my super charged decks. I took them with me to a Bronze Age circle today and charged them in the circle. If the visable cleansing and charging effect the circle had on our crystals is anything to go by me tarot cards will be super powered and I should get some interesting results. I'm itching to try them out and see if it has worked.
For more information about my Brigid's Day pilgramage cheack out my post on New Pagan regarding My Trip To A Stone Circle. Sorry I don't know how to do a link thingy so you'll have to do the hard work yourself.

[wildwoodswoman]

Bethra, I would love for you to read for me. Someone threw a coyote into my life:D Let me know what information you need to read and I will pm you.

[Bethra]

Right so far I've had two people ask for a reading but haven't given me much outline as to the nature of reading required. Get back to me ASAP and I'll crack on with them. I've got a fair bit of time on my hands at the moment so if anyone else wants one PM me with an idear of the nature of the reading and I'll get back to you all once they are done.

[Bethra]

Shpongle I've PMed your reading hope it helps let me know what you thought :)

[Lunacie]

MoonOwl, I'm still waaaay sick. If this new antibiotic doesn't work then I will have to find some money for blood tests, no health insurance since the divorce. I will check out your reading for me and let you know what I get from it as soon as possible. Sorry I've been too sick to do one for you. Rain check, ok?

[Bethra]

Wildwoodswoman, I've PMed your readings. Let me know what you think and if I can be of any further assistance just let me know.

[Lacykitten]

I would like to offer some readings! :)

I don't really want readings back.. there's not much I'd like to know.. unless you do past life readings, that interests me greatly.. or.. I guess something about what I should be doing with my art in regards to getting paid for it or something..

But if you want a reading, or haven't been able to get one.. I would love to do a reading for ya.. :)

[Bethra]

Pauley I have PMed your reading hope you enjoy it :)

[Bethra]

I'd just like to say thank you to all those I have read for so far. I hoped to beable to help a few people when I put the offer out and I was pleased at the response level. To Shpongle and Wildwoodswoman thank you so much for your lovely replies, as I have said to you the lovely PM's I've had off you both have made every minute I spent on those readings worth while.
Thank you
Bethra

[Starpixie]

Hi, I was wondering if somone could do a reading for me. My husband and I have been having problems(other than not seeing him for 7 months, hes in the Army), we are thinking of trying to concieve a girl(we have two boys and are going back an forth on this as this will be the last time and a girl isn't 100%), and we are about to move to Germany. Not to mention I'm afraid of him getting deployed. :)

[Cinnamon Girl]

Starpixie, I'll do a reading for you and would love one in return. :)

My husband and I are planning to do some travelling this year and hopefully get a house in the fall. I'm wondering if our financial situation is going to permit this.

I'll PM your reading later tonight. :)

[Starpixie]

Yipee! Thanks, I'll do one for you when my kids take a nap. I may not be able to do it til real late though(sometimes they wont take naps.) :)

[Cinnamon Girl]

Oh, it's no rush at all. I appreciate you taking the time to do one. :)

[Starpixie]

Thanks for being understanding. :)

[Morrighana]

I would like to swap readings with someone as well... I've just been accepted into University after taking one year off, and I'd like some insight into how I will fare there. I'm feeling a lot of anxiety around the whole situation, so a reading would really help! I'd be more than happy to reciprocate a reading for someone! :)

[Morrighana]

...anybody? I have a second question now, as well, in regards to a pet's health, so if anyone could give me a reading on either topic I would appreciate it!

[Cinnamon Girl]

Morrighana, I can do one for you - which topic would you rather?

[Morrighana]

How about my puppy's health? That's a way more pressing right now. She has injured her leg, and requires very invasive surgery, and we still havent found out if her other leg is injured as well. I'd just like to know what's ahead of us here!

Thank you so much for doing this! Would you like a reading in return?

[Cinnamon Girl]

Okay, will do. :)

If you are up for a reading, I'll certainly take one. I've had a reading done on this already, but I'd like a look from another angle:

My husband and I are planning to do some travelling this year and hopefully get a house in the fall. I'm wondering if our financial situation is going to permit this.

I'll PM your reading sometime this weekend.

[Morrighana]

Ditto ;)

Thanks!

[Lucid]

I'm interested in getting a pastlife reading , in return I can give you a reading from this deck Druid Animal Oracle (http://www.aeclectic.net/tarot/druidanimal/index.html) . I am pretty good with the Triune spread ( 3 cards , cause , effect emotionally , effect in physical world) and the spread of the elements ( 5 card spread aspects of intellectual , sensual , emtional , and intuitive life).
If you don't do cards but want a reading I do not mind, let me know .

[Bethra]

Well I just thought I'd look in while I have a moments peace and quiet and be a glutten for punishment again and offer some readings again :). I have a bit of free time so I can probably do a few. Just PM me if you want a reading and I'll get back to you ASAP.

Glad to see we have so many people offering readings at the moment :). I'll throw an open request to who ever wants to take it. I'm in need of a bit of insight into a change of career I am considering so if anyone wants to do me a reading I'd be really pleased to hear from them. If you want a reading in return I'll do one if not I'll put it on tick and mark it off when I do one :).

[Witchy Cowgirl]

Bethra, I'd love to do a reading for you!
We have a rodeo today so hopefully I can read for you tonight.
If not tonight by tomorrow evening anyway.
Do you want it PM'ed or posted?

[Bethra]

Thanks Witchy Cowgirl, I'm in no real desperate rush so when ever you have the chance I'd be greatful. I have a little while before I have to commit myself to anything deffinate.
I look forward to hearing from you when you can get round to it.

[Witchy Cowgirl]

Done :) Check your PM's

[Bethra]

Thanks Witchy Cowgirl that was great do you want a reading in return or shall I just leave an open offer here to do a reading for someone else? Well I will anyway given that it's all quiet over here at the moment. So if anyone wants a reading jump on the band wagon quick while it's quiet I never know how long it will stay that way :).

[Witchy Cowgirl]

Well, right now just an open offer here is fine.
I hope your reading was on target, more I hope it was helpful.

[Bethra]

The reading was spot on Thanks. I have pm'ed you a full explination of the situation I hope you got it. I can't begin to remember what I wrote if I have to write it again :) I ramble far too much sorry :).

[Witchy Cowgirl]

Bethra, sorry I didn't get your PM. After reading your above post I checked my PM's too cause I know that sometimes - for whatever reason - the pop up box thing goes whacko and doesn't work....but I didn't have any new messages there.

Anyway I'm glad to hear the reading I did for you was on target and that it gives you something to think about.:) Good Luck in whatever you decide to do.;)

[Bethra]

I've had a bit of a brake, not my choosing the computer broke down but I'm back on line again now. I'll PM you again Witchy Cow Girl. I had a few questions about the reading you did. I hope you get this one. :)
I'll probably take till tomorrow to get round to sending it since I have to let the other half have his keyboard back he's been suffering terrible computer with drawal :).
In the mean time I'll re offer my services as far as reading for anyone goes and keep my fingers crossed that I don't have any more puter problems in the mean time :).

[Witchy Cowgirl]

I'll watch for it.:)

[Bethra]

Have PMed you :)

[Bethra]

Have PMed you :)

[Bethra]

Have PMed you :)

[Azure]

I have a little free time this weekend if anyone needs a reading.

[Jeleia]

Would anyone mind giving me a quick reading, I'd be more than happy to a reading in return......

Here is the situation;

I went and looked at a house last night, kindof small, 4plex, but its right in our price range.

I'm moving in with my boyfriend and 2 of my best friends (both guys...) I'm just looking for some insight because I have my own worries about moving into a place with 3 guys. :rolleyes:

Thanks :)

[Prizm]

Could seriously use a responsible reading, but have no experienced service as yet to barter with. Any suggestions?

[Grimalkin V]

Hi Prizm
The best way to learn is having others show you how they read the cards. Just ask for a reading and pay close attention to how they do it. The layout, the way they tell the story as it is layed out to them.
Don't worry that you have to send a reading in response. If someone really like to do readings, that is not what they do them for. Once you get to where you want to do readings for others you will understand. Go ahead and ask
Grimalkin

[Aldrick]

Would love just a general reading on myself. Would swap readings if you desired, haven't read in a short while however I will attempt to if you desire for it.

Simply a reading of myself and progression in general would be greatly appreciated

[Sassy]

Hi Yall! Im new to Tarot. My mother in law is really into it, and I would love to gather more information. Ive been readin your forums and have seem to pick up some good links. I was curious as to if anyone would like to give me a reading. Ive never had one done. If so .. I guess my question would be .. What does my future hold for me ??
Thanks in advance to anyone who would like to do my reading!

[NightBathen]

I am usually all too quick to dismiss using tools for divination, but I am in strange mood of late, if anyone wants some practice I would be happy to get a reading. just tell me what I need to bring to the thread to get you started. I myself am not good with tarot cards but I could do a natal chart or a sun sign compatability or something for the favor, maybe a healing?

[awyrdone]

If any one wants a reading I'll be happy to give one. I do Faerie Oracle cards.

[Bethra]

So mouch has happened I haven't been able to sit down and do my own reading so I'm desperate for someone to do the hard work for me and do me a reading. I'm very much addrift at the moment could do with some grounding and guidance. Thanks anyone who's willing.

[astrokaiju]

i could really use a reading...i'm afraid i can't offer a reading in return since i am not so good at tarot. but hey, let me spill my guts for everyone to see just in case someone decides to give me a free reading out of the kindness of his or her heart...

i have been going to art school for a year and a half, majoring in film, and i'm trying to decide whether to stay where i am or switch to an english major at a completely different school. this is a really tough decision for me and i can't even think straight about it anymore, so even a quick reading would help me so much.

[AuroraSilvermist]

I would like a reading. In exchange, I can offer a custom avatar or other graphic (see my link below). Please PM me if interested, since I don't want to post details here.

Peace!

[spikey]

hi ive had tarot cards for about a year and every time i use them it never tells me what i need to know. do you think im doing it wrong or is that how it happens sometimes....spikey.....

[spikey]

hi im not that good with tarot cards but a group off us get together to read them and learn more. your more than welcome to come along.....spikey.....

[Chesna]

i would love to have a reading done.. the only thing I can offer is to do a rune reading.. I am trying to become familiar with my runes and so would like to practice.....

My question/issue...ummm............my relationship with my brother.. been thinking an awful alot about it.. need to know if its going to get better, stay the same or if we will drift even further apart..

Any help.. thanks..

Chesna

[midnightreflections]

I'd like a reading done in general about my career (or lack of career :hehehehe: as the case is)


I can and will give readings as well

[jayvon30]

If you want a reading you don't need to ask.. just post a question and one of us will pick it up ;)
