Hi all,

I am a tarot learner, I am doing the BN course at the mo, but would love guinea pigs to practice on :thumbsup:
If you are willing to take a chance on me then I promise to do my best, I may not get it right but everyone has to start somewhere
Love and peace

:D I'll be a guinea pig!!!!

Hya Flaire,
I must say you are very brave lol

I had to do a Celtic Cross Spread and here are my interpretations.
(By the way I interpret in my ‘layman’s terms' and sometimes it is a bit blunt.)

Card One…Hanged man
There is a lack of thinking things through at the moment (maybe you shouldn’t have asked to be my guinea pig lol j/k) there is a lack of greater understanding, you are not seeing things from another’s viewpoint. Don’t be so stubborn.

Card Two…High Priestess
This time of non action could be blocking your progress, you need to review this situation and look within to find the answer. Seek guidance.

Card Three… Temperance
The root cause of your current situation is a lack of co-operation or compromise. You need to find a suitable balance.

Card Four…Wheel of fortune
You need to become aware of things going on around you, expand your outlook and gain a greater perspective.

Card Five…10 Swords
Are you seeing life as hostile? Are you feeling powerless? Get A Grip!!!!!
Stop being such a martyr! You should put others views before your own.

Card Six…Four Cups
Self absorbtion…apathy…going within…. These are just the keywords!
You should show your affections more and don’t ignore those affections of others.
You are loved, you just need to wake up and smell the coffee, cheer up and get motivated.

Card Seven…Eight Cups
You see yourself as tired, lacking energy, wanting a deeper meaning. Let it go and move on.

Card Eight…Six Swords
Others are aware of how you feel, they know you are maybe a little low, and that you want a change of scene, they do understand you more than you think.

Card Nine… Two Swords
Are you avoiding the truth? Do you fear you are losing your grip on you being ‘cool’ ? Are you afraid of being stuck? Don’t be afraid to act.

Card Ten… Three Swords
You will need to be aware of things going on around you if you want a solution, even if they hurt your pride or feelings. Talk to the other people in you life, get another point of view, and don’t take things for granted.

Don't shout at me please, I did my best lol

I would love to know what you thought of it. But be gentle as this is my first ever Celtic Cross spread!

Love and peace
Kalm

I don't like using the celtic cross m'self (too many cards. :dis: ) But you got me right on in many areas..

It's true, I don't think things through most of the time and then pay the penalty for it. hehe...And I do think I'm becoming detatched from the things going on around me (I have no idea what my friends are talking about anymore!! )
I do realize now, that people do know how I'm feeling, even though I try to put up a fake attitude (I guess it doesn't work?)

And the 3 of Swords is coming up alot for me right now. :eek: Wow..

:thumbsup: Great reading & thanks!

Too many cards for me too. When someone really really wants an in-depth reading I use the 10-card Tree of Life spread, but I prefer a three-card reading.

If you want some more practice Kalm, I'll be your next guinea pig.

Hi Topazz

First can I thank Flaire for responding to my Celtic Cross spread, as I said, it was one of my assignments and that is why I chose this spread for the reading. Glad you enjoyed it Flaire! :thumbsup:

Now to Topazz, (dah dah, dah dah, - sound from jaws lol)

Like I said before to Flaire, I interpret these cards in my ‘layman’s terms’ and sometimes I can be a bit blunt, forgive me.

Here I did the ‘Reach into the Well Spread’. This is a general 3 card spread with no specific or predefined focus. This reading highlights current dominant energies and life situations that may require attention right now.

The cards drawn are:-
10 Cups (R)………2 Pentacles………Lovers
Are you trying to juggle too many things right now and possibly neglecting family members? You need to communicate with family and friends more, you may feel tired and a little depressed but, your family can bring that sparkle back into your life.

Well that was a quick one, wasn’t it?

Please let me know what you think? I appreciate all forms of acknowledgement whether it is good or bad, it will help me learn.

Love and Peace
Kalm

At first I said no way, because I've actually been doing more with my grandchildren the last week or so, but my other energies do feel scattered right now. My daughter and I keep saying how tired and depressed we've both been, don't know if it's seasonal or just tired from coping with a colicky infant. Anyway, when I'm depressed I do tend to stop communicating with my family, that is quite accurate. Thanks for the reality check, Kalm.

Is there anything you'd like for me to check out with my runes for you? Anyone?

[Kalm]

Hi Topazz,

Thanks for your reply, I hope it was acceptable.

I would love to know if you could do a rune reading for me please, as I have been bringing up my own and looking after friends kids since I was 18 and never got the chance to get a career. I think it is time to get a job, I have had enough of kids now lol
I have been going back to school to learn how to use computer programmes, and doing courses like the 'Clait' which I passed, 'RSA word processing up to Stage 3 part one' most of them I passed with distinction!!!!! and I am now doing 'ECDL' which I have 3 more exams to complete. I am 37 and still don't know what I want to do when I grow up lol
Could you do a career type reading for me please. I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you

Love and peace
Kalm

Here's what I get doing a five-rune wheel.

Top/current situation: The Bridge: you are ready for a change that will allow you to explore and become more of who you really are.

Right/waning influence: Terminations: It's time for letting go of a situation that has become restrictive. It's time for changes.

Bottom/hidden influences: Communication: Lately you have been having trouble communicating effectively with others. You need to open the channel of communication within yourself, between your ego and your spirit. You can tell when this channel is open because you don't second-guess your choices and actions, and communications with others will become more effective as well.

Left/emerging influences: Completion: You have already started to clear away old beliefs and outgrown relationships which have been holding you back.

Center/the synthesis: Deserving: You are realizing that where you are and what you have now is only as much as you expect. In order to have more of what you want and and need, you must look at your limited outlook on money, possessions, relationships, and happiness.

Hi Topazz,

I appreciate you doing this for me.
I completely understand the first four runes, I need to make some changes, but I dont understand the fifth, the Deserve one. Hang on I just re-read it lol,
Does it mean 'I' am holding myself back as I am not expecting more than I could expect? Hmmm, could be.
Thanks again Topazz. :thumbsup:

Love and peace
Kalm
