Hi guys. I'm not sure of your process with these daily draws, but I need some help with mine from this morning. It is kind of a recurring problem, actually.

These were my cards: King of wands, queen of wands, and Death. My interpretational problem is this: I have always had trouble with cards like Death and the Tower when surrounded by court cards. Usually, in a full reading, I can intuit the situation and still give a very comprehensive reading, but when this situation came up this morning, I thought that I would ask everyone's opinions. I really enjoyed hearing all the different takes on the Tower in that thread - it has always been an ambiguous card for me.

I am at work now, but when I get home I will scan my cards in. I use the lo Scarabeo Celtic deck.

do the cards have positions or they totally unrelated and you just want comparisons on each card individually?

For my daily draw I usually just draw three and lay them out in the order they are drawn. 1st being theme or mood of the day, second being surprises, third being possible outcomes. But really my main question is how do you interpret the more ambiguous cards when they are surrounded by court cards? Death I interpret as neccesary transformation, but whether the asker will feel that change is good or bad is determined by the surrounding, related cards.
Maybe I can clarify with and example. In the Enochian 15 card spread, cards 4,8, and 12 are potential future events and influences, a possible natural course of action. Say I lay out the King of Wands, the Tower, and the Queen of Swords. I have trouble disassociating the court cards with people and associating them with events, so I would have a hard time translating that area of the reading. Do you know what I mean? I could say that a powerful man and a judgemental woman will bring about great change in your life, or will ruin something that you have worked hard for, but that seems too open ended for me. This has become especially troublesome, because I have a friend that loves to get readings from me, and in every reading the majority of his cards are court cards (he is a little social butterfly).
I dunno. Maybe I am just trying to read too much into the court cards, and I should relax about it. Or maybe I should focus my meditations more on them for a while.
