Ok Dagda here it goes.
The card I drew was Ace of swords wich made me think that you are feeling somewhat torn in different directions, that your thoughts are in a huge mess, and that they are popping out of nowhere...

So I draw a second card for you (to help my reading), and that was temperence, and that made me think that thease thoughts you might have, are good ones... that is, your thoughts have to do with happy things, that you have a lot of energy right now or that you just feel you need to go out and do stuff... maybe you have a lot of impulses at the time, and maybe you also feel that you are under some sort of stress? Maybe the stress you feel is because you are bubbleing with energy... I don't know...

To be honest with you, I don't really get a grip on this reading... I feel rather insecure, and I am not sure what it is that I am supposed to see here... It feels like the first card is somewhat the opposite of the second card...

Well let me know if I am anywhere close...

Well, you are right, I am feeling stressed! ....and there are MANY things that I want to do, having lots of energy!! (impulsive...yep! ...that's me!)

My interpretation of these two cards would be:

With the Ace I typically think of....fortitude..strength to see things through, and just using the noggin'. Lots of fresh thinking, being able to think things through with logic and reason. New thoughts and ideas.

Temperance I usually see as a balance card. Maybe I need to balance my thoughts. I would think it represents the need for focus. No more daydreaming! The need to get solid footing. With this card, one foot is in the water, the other on solid ground....could this mean a balance of the heart/emotions and finances(earth)/practicality?

Look to see what the cards have in common as far as symbolism goes. I use the Rider Waite deck....both of the pictures have clouds, wings, vegetation/flowers, the sun and a Crown/halo/headdress. what do these symbolize to you? To me, mental (swords/air) clarity (sun shining through/beyond clouds) ....maybe I'm at a point of some mental confusion (clouds) but with a little focus (sun coming through) things will balance out and allow for growth (vegetation).

Just some thoughts. :) I think you did VERY well with your reading! I thank you very much!!! :D

Okey loopy,
the first card I drew was the moon. I also drew to help card for you but first lets talk about the moon.

For me it stands for the subconcious, intuition... perhaps also some sort of melancholi... Is something troubleing you? I get the feeling that it is time for some meditation, to listen to your heart and to your feelings, try not to worry about the future.

The second card was the world, but it was upside down, I am not sure how to read that one...

The third card was three of cups, upside down, which talks of depression...

Are you feeling somewhat sad now? Maybe it is a feeling of loss of something?

I feel really out of line here, I get rahter insecure doing thease readings, but I try to call them as I see them, and not try to put to much logic in the reading... doing that I feel that you are worried, that something is bothering you, something that you need to let go, find inner peace, meditate, take a danceclass, laughter does wonder when you are feeling low... and perhaps have a moonceremony.

Ok... I feel very insecure about this reading, let me know how I did...

Eesh, forgot how personal these things could be. :D Seriously, though, without going into too many details, it was extremely accurate.

Ok, well if it is any comfort to you I have turned the cards right to get the energies moving in another direction... hope that will help. :)

June 1st, 2001, 09:34 AM
Wow, thease long distance readings can be really interesting, however a bit scary aswell, I feel so insecure when I do the reading, very insecure... however you just have to call them as you see them I guess... :)

Anyways I studied the cards I draw for Dagda once more, they were Ace of swords and temperance and I look for symbols in the cards a lot harder this time than when I do the reading... Well I didn't do the reading over, nothing like that just tried to see what sort of likeness there was. I use Gill and everycard has a word on it... ace of sword is named energy, it is a blue card, with clouds, light and feathers, symbolizes air on many levels, but I can also see the sun shining throught the clouds, or if you wish the clouds covering the sun...
Temperence is of many elements, blue sky, rainbow and clouds, mountains and fire and water in the forground. there is an angel spinning, she has a crown above her hair, she is mixing air and water, or maybe even all the elements... I too feel this card has to do with balance, and as far as likeness goes for thease cards there is clouds and blueskies in them both and I suppose also feathers (the angels wings and the feathers on the ace of swords card...).

Like I said before, VERY well done!

I think the words on the cards are just a "jumping off place" to get your creativity flowing with the cards general meaning. :D

I am always in awe of how accurate "blind" readings can be!....and over the net at that! ;)

Keep going! You are on a roll!

Oki Tigger first...

I did your reading just now, had to draw to cards...

The first one:
Five of cups. This card is named regret in my Gill deck. I therefor feel that you might be feeling that. This card also talks of broken love, a disappointment. Something that you put your soul in that might have gone wrong, leaving you filled with regret and disappointment. This card speaks of emotional chill, chill that might have come from the disappointment or from the regret... from you or from some other party involved. You might be feeling very blue right now, or maybe only sadness and regret...

I drew a second card, one to show me where this regret came from... I got 2 of cups. That card is named love. When I drew it now it was turned upside down. That I feel speaks of a broken heart, or maybe broken promises...

If I am anywhere close on this one, I have a little witch medicin for you.

The next time the moon is new take a crystal and bathe it in water with salt in it. Take the crystal with you and walk out in to the night, go to a special place, hold the crystal up to the moon and ask the moongoddess for help. Ask her to let love into your life, to let regret and disappointment go and to let emotional chill go away, ask her to let your senses be open to all that love is, and to all the faces of love.
When yóu come back put the crystal in central place, a place that is central to you, it will stand there and remind you of your wish and by its presence it will enhance your wish.

Well, ok, was I anywhere near? Let me know oki...

And blessed be

Yeah you were close! i was really down yesterday. Not sure why or if it's love or not. I"m confused in the love part of my life. married and all but not sure whats going on.
i'll have to try what you said.
thanks for your reply

Emy
June 2nd, 2001, 05:16 AM
Glad to hear that your not feeling to low... =)
It is always tough doing this long distance reading, because I don't see you, I don't know "how good or bad" the situation is... know what I mean?

Anyways try the moon ritual thing, speak aloud and from your heart, and I am sure that matters will be better :)

Here is your one card draw...

I got Queen of wands...

The queen of wands, either representing a part of yourself or a person in your life...
The card is named reflection in my deck, and it shows a woman on a thrown, she is dressed in yellowish clothes holding a wand with flames on it... her thrown is red with flames on it... in her clothes I see some feathers which might mean that there is a second element involved and that is air... she sits before a mirror, and one can see part of her reflection in it.

The queen of wands stands for spontanity, extrovert, carisma, generousity... She can heal diseases, call for success, make enemies feel conquered... She can call for rain, or ask the clouds to move...

This card means that you have the power to deal with what you need to deal with to make your wishes come true. Be creative, build up your social network and prepare for an exciting project where you need to hold your focus...

To be honest I feel a bit blank drawing this card, it wasn't what I expected (well it never is ... =) but still...)
So I went to see if there was a second card, to tell me why I drew this one...

And that card was wheel of fortune, reversed but now I feel that that is of lesser importance, it still stands for a new beginning, a new turn i n your life is coming up (or has come up already). Jupiter rules over this card which tells us that this card is connected to fortune, expansion and that something nice is coming up... or that something a bit "worse" is coming up... wheel of fortune, you're either lucky or you took a risk that didn't work... however you might be in a new phase, or might be going into a new phase in your life right now...


Oki, this one I feel very insecure about, mostly because the cards were very silent when I did the draw... Mostly I feel big energies from the card I am suppose to draw but I could only feel a small energy from your cards, on the other hand all the other cards were silent so it had to be thease ones I had to draw for you...

Let me know how I did :)

Chryssi1 here is one for you...

First card:Nine of cups. Called the wish card. :)
On my deck the word is content. This card shows optimism for the future. what you wish for will come true. Prepare for surprises. Enjoy life, but make sure you have both feet on the ground. Remeber your roots, remember your friends.

I drew two more cards for you, but I run rather blank at those, I drew Justice reversed and Prince of swords reversed.

Reversed Justice might speak of some imbalance some injustice... it might speak of something on a goverment level... I am rather blank on this one, can't make it fit the first one...

The third card is prince of swords, reversed. And reversed he stands for extreme egoism, emotionally poor development, opportunism. The card either stands for someone around you, or for a part of yourself. I don't know how to read in to this card... I feel confused, maybe it is there as a warning for you... maybe it talks of someone in your surroundings... I am not at all sure about thease cards...

Gotta see if a fourth card can help me read this...

nooo nothing there... sorry I can't be of more help... however maybe this makes some sense to you anyways... let me know how I did :)

Blessings

Me too please!:p

Moondatter, this is for you :)

Ok I had to drew three cards, sometimes I have to use more than one card to get the whole picture... however, I don't think that I've got that, but I got something at least...

The first card I got was strength, reversed.
The second was six of swords, reversed,
and finally the third card was eight of wands.

The first card Strength stands for passion, joy, honesty, lust, feeling strong and ready for a challenge, energy and lots of it... However reversed it can either mean the opposite; lack of strenght and energy etc... or it can mean the same as when turned right but in a lesser way...

The second card was six of swords, reversed. Usually it stands for travel, mentally or physically. This card reversed stands for a journey that gets cancelled, or interuption of movement of some sort...

The third card is eight of wands, it tells us about action, that it is time to act. Time to communicate, to take opportunities, time for new ideas... traditionally it also talks of getting a letter or a phonecall with positive news, it might also mean a win of some sort...

Ok here is what I see when I look at thease cards for you. I feel that strenght reversed stands for lack of energy in some area, lack of strength... maybe there has been to much work lately taking all your energy, maybe there is something that takes up your thoughts, some sort of matter or thing that you are dealing with mentally, something that bothers you and takes your energy and strength thinking about it... The six of swords in this case might stand for a journey being cancelled, or that a movement has been interupted, I think that if you are struggeling mentally with something that takes your energy, then it is probably due to some sort of movement being interupted, that something in the natural way of things has been changed in someway... something has been turned upside down... I am not sure what...

The advice I get from the third card is that it is time to act, it is time to move on your feelings, time to make descisions, time to act, no time for fantasy... It is time to get the wheels in motion...

I feel that what ever is taking your energy will pass as soon as you decide upon what to do, as soon as you act upon it...

Well, that is about all I could get for you right now... :)

Let me know how I did, if I was anywhere close...


Blessed be

I am sorry you had such a rough time with my cards. I liked the wish card :) I am thinking this has to do with me looking to the future quite a bit lately. I just had my son's b-day and my wedding anniversary in the last two weeks and for both times I lit candles and asked for blessings in the upcoming year. I am not sure of the other two cards, but I will keep them in mind as my day goes.

I have been trying to learn as much as I can about the cards and have been pulling a card for myseff each day. I had been getting a lot of cards regarding eduacation, moving forward, new paths etc. I am assuming this has to do with me studying Wicca and making it part of my life so intensely right now.

Thanks so much for the reading, if you ever want to do another, I would appreciate it :) :) :)

Brilliant Job Emy!! Bet your worn out now!! Your very talented with the Tarot!! :D
& you were spot on with my reading last week! The two of swords was allot more relevant over the weekend than I had thought and even today actually! Just a few mins ago.. Ive been feeling very tired and as though I need to be on my own for a little to recharge but its been impossible because Ive had a very busy weekend with friends and family and just had an argument with my Mum over the phone which I hate having!
So I do need time to take some peace, rest and recharge my batteries!! (my boyfriends away for the week and Ive nothing planned for the next few nights (apart from the Full Moon) so I will let her rays give me life and laughter again

June 5th, 2001, 03:15 AM
Thank you all for letting me do a reading for you, for me it is great practise. To be honest I sort of layed off my tarot decks for a while, I felt it was to intense and that I didn't know how to handle it... however doing thease readings, although they are rather intense, and I get tired afterwords, I feel that it is in my control, I can handle it better, if you know what I mean... :)

I'll be glad to do another reading for you someday, just let me know... :)

And Moondatter, I am thinking about your trip, well, I don't think that it will get cancelled, the card can also speak of a mental journey, or an interruption of movement (mental movement, not physical movement)... and maybe that is more accurate, well, I'll guess will see what happens, I too sure hope that your trip wont get cancelled...

June 5th, 2001, 12:23 PM
Oki Moonmagic4 here goes your card... or actually cards, I decided to draw three cards, sort of like past, present and future...

Well the first card (which then should stand for present) is wheel of fortune. Wheel of fortune stands for changes of some sort. a new beginning, expansion etc. Your destiny provides you with a change of some sort, and that change might not feel good right now (or it does feel good now aswell) but it most likely will feel good in a little while...

The second card (past) was ace of coins. Ace of coins in my deck is called wealth, and has the earth on it.. this card stands for stability, and I guess that means that your life up til now has been rather stabil. The card also stands for money and winnings, and also children on the way...

The third card (future) is four of cups. This card stands for pregnancy (physically or mentally), it can mean that there is a baby on the way, or that it will be a baby on the way, but it can also speak of other matters that could be compared to a baby on the way, like projects, books being written and that sort of thing... This card tell us about all the feelings that comes with the nine month wait for a baby, not being patient at all, feeling restless, expectations, sorrow and joy... the advice is patience, be patient with yourself, some things take time...

So it seems like there is a change in your life that has just started or likely will start, that change will be for the better surely, however changes takes time, it might be a rather turbulent time a head, a time with many feelings... A time full of waiting, just like a pregnancy is..

Let me know how I did!

Blessed be

Hi Emy!
Thanks again for the reading, I do read a little for others, but usually not for myself much...it's hard to be objective;) and it does take a lot of of you!
Just to let you know...a class that I was supposed to teach in another city cancelled yesterday!! so there you go....you were right on track!:p

June 6th, 2001, 04:01 AM
Hey, sometimes things that the cards tell you gets an explanation after a while :)

Before, like a couple of years ago when I sort of started reading tarot, I found it very difficult reading for myself and for people that I know, however I don't have that problem anymore, I try to get in a particular mood when I read, it is not really me with all my knowledge about myself and my friends, it is a different part of me doing the reading, an objective one... :) However I still feel very insecure when I do my readings, and especially when I read to someone that I know...

But if I am feeling better tomorrow, I'll be glad to do a reading for you! :)

Semele, here comes your one card reading...

I drew one card for you, asked for a second but the deck was silent so i asked my runes for a rune for you and I got one rune for you... So your reading consist of one tarot card and a rune.

The tarot card was ace of swords:

The picture on the card has a sword on it, the background is blue (like heaven..) and there are also some feathers on it...

This card stands for ideas, a focused mind and success. This card tells me that you might have gotten an idea, and it tells me that you should build on to that idea. Your mind is set, and the energy is focused. Make longterm goals and take time to make this idea come true. You will succeed, a positive energy guides this card. :)

The rune was "älgrunan", Algitz. It stands for protection, animals, nature, spirits and guides. This rune stands for the ability to walk in harmony with the nature and the animals. It is a mighty rune when it comes to protection. Algitz tells you to seek your roots, to find your true nature. If you feel in need of protection you should wear Algitz.

Oki, so what can we make of this... The tarot card probably stands for your week, day or near future or something (perhaps the present), the rune I feel tells me something about you. I think it tells me that you are a person in harmony with nature, a person who loves animals etc. The advice Algitz could give you for your own development is to seek your roots. Try to learn more about yourself, and perhaps also more about your family roots, your history.

I am not sure what else to make of this at this point, good luck with your idea (if you get one, or have one or something like that). I'll make a more extensive reading if you like... :) Just let me know...

Well, I (like always) feel rather insecure about the outcome of this reading, it doesn't make much sense to me, but hopefully it makes sense to you :) Let me know how I did! :)

Blessed be
