Tarot Tuesday

Question from Vicky: “What changes are coming up in my family’s economic well-being?”

King of SwordsTower7 of Swords
King of Swords – The Tower – 7 of Swords

The Tower is one of those cards that forces us to sit up and take notice!  And while I sincerely wish I could tell you that a nice improvement is up ahead, it looks like things will get worse before they can settle down and get better.  It’s as if the slate needs to be completely wiped clean to allow you to create a fresh start in matters of economic concern.

The King of Swords is like your “ace in the hole,” Vicky!  This tells me that you will have some important decisions to make.  You will need to be strategic and look for what you are able to take control of in financial and economic matters.  With the 7 of Swords, this may involve some serious cutting out of things you don’t have to have – which can understandably make you feel “cheated.”  But this is very important, because the cards are showing us that you may have to cut your losses – and/or you will need to make some decisive cuts to work on improving the financial department of your life which will also impact your family as well.

For some people, the Tower in economics can signify a bankruptcy, or it may portray a serious debt consolidation.  At the very least, Vicky, with the King on board here, the cards are asking you to find ways to take control through some tough decisions – before things explode around you.  The Tower is an energy where it’s like the roof is about ready to blow on a situation.  It’s something that you really can see coming and can look for ways to mediate or circumvent as much as possible.  But if left ignored with just “hoping for the best,” things can fall apart – often prompting people to wonder what happened, when there were likely some signs along the way.

The sting can be greatly reduced if you make some tough decisions now to clear the path for a clean slate in whatever ways you can.  The King of Swords shows us that there are some things for which you can control and work on to alleviate some of the Tower’s upheaval.  Look for ways to create a fresh start, even though this can take some time to get through.  Good decisions now can spare you a lot of upset – even though such decisions may not be easy ones to make.

Wishing you all the best, and many blessings!!

Question from Lola: “I am in love with a man I met a while back, but he lives in Houston.  He is very into God and very focused on his business.  He says that if God grants him me for him, he would be the luckiest man on earth.  I want to know if he really does have feelings for me, or if he is just telling me what I want to hear.  I feel such a connection to him that I have never felt for anyone before, and we have never met in person.  Thank you so much for allowing me to participate!!  God Bless You!!”

5 of WandsHierophantLovers

5 of Wands – The Hierophant – The Lovers

I have done this reading on the basis of a Feelings/Intentions/Advice layout.

The only real problem at present, Lola, is that the two of you haven’t met yet – and this needs to happen in a safe public place so that you both will have an opportunity to connect on an in-person basis to explore how you truly feel about one another.  The 5 of Wands shows us that his feelings contain a struggle, and that may very well be because he hasn’t met you, nor have you met him.  Until you and he actually meet, it will be hard for a relationship to come together on a genuine basis.

His intentions, however, seem honorable with the Hierophant. He seems to be a man who is ready to settle down.  With this card, followed by the Lovers, he seems like a marriage-minded kind of guy.  But again, to get rid of this struggle and confusion in the area of feelings, the two of you will obviously need to finally meet.  But do consider doing this safely, Lola, when the opportunity arises.

The advice of the Lovers speaks of a choice to be made.  Obviously there will be choices about when and where the two of you might meet in order to create the opportunities to truly get to know one another.  This card encourages you to make healthy relationship choices.  It encourages you and this man to find a way to meet to decide once and for all if you still feel the connection in-person as you feel across the distance.

This is something to pursue if you continue to be interested, Lola.  But work on erasing the confusion of the 5 of Wands so that you can choose a clear direction that feels good for you.  If you both feel the same upon getting to know one another in person, this relationship has the potential to become a solid one.

Many Blessings!

This week’s question is from Deanna: “I’ve been unemployed for a year now.  Do you see me finding work within the next few months?”

6 of PentaclesThe Hanged ManThe Moon

6 of Pentacles – The Hanged Man – The Moon

The Six of Pentacles is promising for acquiring a new job position, Deanna.  But I don’t think this is going to happen within the “next few months.”  It looks like the wait will be a little longer, as the Hanged Man suggests that things are still suspended for a little while.

You have been out of work for a year now, and the Hanged Man’s number is 12.  The Moon’s energy is 18, so if we add six months to your total time of unemployment, this could be indicating that your time of unemployment will be about 18 months.  So I am thinking that a new job will come to you in about 6 months from now.

The Moon also indicates that there may be an untapped resources that you haven’t seen yet in terms of opportunities.  Perhaps there is something you have overlooked because you didn’t think you would qualify, or you didn’t think you would like it.  Take a second look at any of those types of options, because you might find a gem in there.  Things are not always as they seem on the surface with Moon energy.

Many Blessings!

This week’s question is from Greer: “Why am I not able to find a fulfilling romantic relationship?”

Knight of Swords - Radiant Rider Waite10 of Wands - Radiant Rider Waite3 of Pentacles - Radiant Rider Waite
Knight of Swords – 10 of Wands – 3 of Pentacles

The first thing that came to my mind upon seeing the determined Knight of Swords is “looking for love in all the wrong places.”  This energy can be bold and aggressive, but it’s not a settled energy.  It can actually be somewhat scattered, suggesting that you might be trying too hard – and with the 3 of Pentacles here, too, it may be helpful to be involved with group and community activities where men are present, too.  With the Knight of Swords, it’s also like pushing against the wind or trying to swim against a current, as you could encounter men who aren’t the committing type or who are otherwise unavailable.

If you are already being active in groups, clubs, or community activities, then this is great, and you are on the right track. And it will be a matter of letting love find you in a natural kind of way – versus trying so hard to find it and make it happen.  It does require a lot of patience at times, especially since you need a partner who is on the same page with you and perhaps shares some of the same goals in life that you have.

The 10 of Wands in the center shows us that trying to get to your goal of finding love can start feeling like a burden.  You may become frustrated – but don’t give up, because 10 energy suggests that you are reaching the end of a cycle so that you can begin a new one.  But you may need to let yourself relax a bit more and engage in activities for the pure fun of it. In other words, when you decide to go out, don’t go with the mindset that you are going for the purpose of finding a potential partner.  That sort of “expectation” can truly spoil the party and leave you in disappointment. When you least expect it, a friendship could show signs of potential to become more.  Love could creep up on you when you’re not really looking for it :)

Many Blessings!

This week’s question is from Pamela: “There are things I need – a newer vehicle, but I really want a home of my own. Will I be able to buy a home or mobile home anytime soon?  Thank you!”

King of Swords, 8 of Cups, Page of Wands
King of Swords – 8 of Cups – Page of Wands

We’re not looking at a bad situation here by any means, Pamela.  But one thing I am not seeing is a major purchase in the cards that would accommodate buying a home soon.  The 8 of Cups in the center of this reading, however, can suggest a move – although it may be moving to a different rental perhaps.  It might also be suggesting that you may move on to other plans and ideas that can ultimately get you what you want.  But I’m just not getting a feeling of “soon” for buying a new home of your own.

Instead, the Tarot is showing us discipline in the King of Swords.  This likely relates to setting your priorities and being even more disciplined with yourself so that you can create a budget and a plan for how you can eventually purchase the home you want.  This King advises practical and prudent choices with regard to money and transactions.  So this can also mean that, as much as you want to buy a house, you might come to see that the car should come first.  This is about setting priorities in a logical and practical manner – and doing so with firmness and discipline so that you will put yourself in a position to execute your plans at the right time.

I often think of the King of Swords in comparison to a Chess game – because there is a right time to make certain moves and a wrong time if you want to stay in the game.  But if you maneuver your pieces with the right strategy, you can finally zero in on what you want.

The Page of Wands represents new inspiration and motivation that can help you pave the way for a future home, but this energy is still new and not yet evolved enough to make it feasible to purchase a home in the near future.  This is part of the planning process, but also the excitement that goes with it when you know you are working toward something you really want.  So the Tarot tells us that it’s still possible for you to eventually buy a house, but you may need to get some things in order first.  It’s a time to do some serious goal-setting so that you will be ready and prepared for that exciting day in the more distant future.  It is something you can make happen, although realistically, the Tarot isn’t suggesting to us that it will be soon.

Many Blessings!

This week’s question is from Michele: “What is ahead for my upcoming year?”

High Priestess 4 of Wands and Fool

 The High Priestess – 4 of Wands – The Fool

The High Priestess encourages you to listen to your instincts in your upcoming year.  Trust what you feel, because even though there will be times that it seems that something just isn’t happening or progressing, things are still churning behind the scenes with this energy.  Something may ask you to hold back for a bit, and if your patience is put to the test in this manner, it’s because more is meant to unfold to finally allow you to see what was previously hidden. And those unknown elements can make a big difference in what you will choose.  It can be like a time of waiting, but during that period, you will be able to gather facts and information that are important for you to be aware of.

You need not try to force something into what you want it to become – just bide your time and let the High Priestess work her magic for you.  This will help you prevent costly mistakes as well.  This is a fertile energy, so things are brewing, but you just have to wait a bit for things to finish percolating.

The 4 of Wands shows us a happy situation with the home or family!  If you are considering a move, this is a great energy for that.  But either way, Michele, this card indicates having reasons to celebrate.  You may enjoy family reunions or other events that bring you together with people you love or that otherwise mean a lot to you.  So there is some fun and a bit of “party” energy going on for you to enjoy in your upcoming year.  There will be a lot of things to be thankful for.  And you may also receive “congratulations” for something you accomplish :)

The Fool shows us something new coming into your life.  This could be a new job, a new relationship, or something else – depending on your situation.  It’s something that you can embrace with enthusiasm as you make a new start with something.  You might not have all the answers as you get started, but not to worry!  The Fool assures you that you’ll find what you need as you go along.  Thus, don’t ever think that you can’t get started with something just because you think you need to have everything in front of you to begin an endeavor.  The Fool tells us that is a silly way to think – and it’s really just a “perfect excuse” that we human beings use in order to put off doing something we really wanted to do.  Remember the Fool’s wise advice which is this:  “It’s not the things we did in life that we will regret most…it’s the things we didn’t do or try that will bring us the most regret.”

Many Blessings!

This week’s question is from Nancy: “My question is about getting started on my life purpose. I feel like I should be a life coach or a therapist. I need your help to clarify that for me. Life coaching sounds good to me because I can get a certificate faster than being educated to become a therapist. Do you think I will find a good online program? I am overseas for two years, so can’t do anything in class. Please help me out. I would truly appreciate it.”

 

10 of Pentacles – 5 of Cups – 7 of Cups

The 10 of Pentacles indicates that support is available for you in your endeavors to be a life coach or a therapist – whichever area you truly want to be in.  Usually, when we feel called to something, it’s what we are meant to do. But so often, people will deny that calling through one excuse or another as to why they “can’t” achieve it.  So I think it’s important that you know – if this is what you truly want – then there will indeed be a way for you to get it, Nancy!  The potential for success is there, and your idea is viable and valuable!  So definitely don’t just “sit” on the idea, because the power of this idea will take shape once you begin to actualize this dream.

To fully embrace your life purpose, the 5 of Cups indicates that you need to get clear about whether you really want to be a coach OR a therapist – because as you know, the two will have differences.  Don’t go for the option that seems easiest or fastest if it’s not genuinely the path you want to take.  If you opt for one thing because it seems the faster way, you could be disappointed to learn that it’s still going to take time. And thus, you might as well work toward what you truly want to be doing so that you don’t end up with any regrets.

The 7 of Cups indicates that there will be many choices available for you – and you may be surprised at what you can do online.  There will be a lot of choices and options for you to research in order for you to find what will be the right fit for you personally.  If you want to study online, whether for a degree or for a certificate, research what is out there.  You may find that there isn’t a lack of resources – but perhaps instead an abundance of choices that will require you to thoroughly research the options in order to get the opportunity that is right for you.  It doesn’t seem that there will be a lack here, but instead, many possible directions you could take.  So do your research, even though that will take time in itself.  Getting what is right for you is important, and later, you’ll be glad you took the time to assess things properly.

Good luck, Nancy!

This week’s question is from Sara: “My question is about my finances. I just got sued by the bank for not paying the credit card bill. I am panicking as i don’t have a job. And my husband’s job could be in danger as he works for government and has a security clearance. I take 100% responsibility for all this. I am worried that do you think if we negotiate with bank, they will come to some kind of terms with us that will avoid me to appear in the court and go to jail.  Thanks so much!”

 

Ace of Swords – 5 of Wands – The Tower

Sara, let me first tell you that I don’t feel you are going to jail over this matter.  It’s important to put your focus on the new beginnings of the Ace of Swords.  This card represents your situation right now.  And while I can clearly see this is very uncomfortable and challenging for you in the 5 of Wands and the Tower card energy, there is an opportunity for finding a “breakthrough” in the situation, as things stand right now.  But you need to contact the bank quickly and make a good-hearted attempt to work with them – and document your calls to them and who you have spoken to . . . so that if it does end up going to court, you’ll have proof that you tried to work things out and take care of the matter.

The 5 of Wands suggests to me that the bank may get quite pushy with you – and perhaps not seem all too willing to work with you.  So you are going to need to be firm with them (but polite, of course).  Let them know that while you would rather resolve this out of court, if court and the associated expenses are what they really want, then you also intend to stand up for yourself in court because you are trying to work it out and seek resolution first.  The thing is, Sara, if you can go ahead and make some kind of payment and show good faith efforts immediately, this will look better on you in the end.  This is the advice card, and it’s asking you to find a way to work around the struggle – but also be willing to stand up for yourself in the same manner.

I am definitely feeling like there are going to be delays in any court process if it happens.  As things stand in the moment, Sara, the Tower suggests that this could end up in the courts – unless you are able to convince the bank otherwise before then.  But remember, while court sounds like a very scary thing, the judge is not going to incarcerate you. (And if the bank people get too darn cocky in the whole matter, the judge will be ticked off at them, not you!) In today’s modern era, we’ve long since moved beyond “debtor’s prison.”

With the Tower card, I can see a lot of discomfort in front of you to work through this issue, but this energy puts people outside (and not inside, as in behind the bars of a jail).  This card is a huge eye opener, and I think you’ve already learned the lessons the hard way and can stop beating yourself up over this.  While you will ultimately have to pay for this debt, and the bank may threaten liens of your personal property in some way, look to the new beginnings and breakthrough in the Ace of Swords.  There will be a way “out” of this problem, although the struggle may feel quite daunting before you finally see your way to the outside of this matter.

As a side note, keep in mind that we are in Mercury Retrograde through April 4th.  Things may actually feel more clearer to you once we get out of this difficult planetary phase, and it’s possible that you could find a job opportunity that will help you with this current struggle.  So don’t give up, Sara!  The cards show that this is a pretty heavy challenge for you right now, but if you will focus on the breakthrough and ultimate resolution, you will get through this — and you’ll be wiser for it in so many ways :)   The important thing is not to let yourself be pushed around.  Keep seeking a new job, and keep an open mind with faith that this is ultimately going to work out.

Good luck to you, Sara!

This week’s question is from Danielle: “I have been saying for the last couple of years that I should write a humorous book about my divorce. I pick it up every now and then, but right now I’m going through a bit of writer’s block. I am wondering if I put in the effort to finish it, will I actually make any money off it? If not, maybe I won’t push so hard to finish it.”

 

Strength – 5 of Cups – 5 of Pentacles

More than anything else for this situation, I can see in the Strength card that writing this book has probably been a therapeutic experience for you, Danielle.  You’re getting something out of the writing, but it might not go in the direction you intended – at least in terms of making big profits from it.  So this book has value to you in ways that go beyond the realms of the material.  And if you are writing in a way that can help other divorced women get through that 5 of Cups pain and sense of loss . . . it’s something that actually can help some women find the goodness that still exists in their lives and move on to cross new bridges in their lives, as you have done.

However, when it comes to making money from your book, the 5 of Pentacles doesn’t indicate big profits coming your way for this effort, especially if you are a new writer.  If writing is something you are seriously interested in, however, that first book always needs to get written.

As you write this book, a lot of painful memories may also surface again.  The art of writing in itself can bring healing and closure.  And I rather like the humorous twist you are putting on a depressing situation – something to help you and others find that hope still exists, despite the challenges of a real life marriage and divorce story.

Decide who you are writing this book for.  Did you subconsciously start writing it as a project for yourself to find healing and closure?  Or were your original intentions to write a book with the purpose to earn money?  I don’t see much, if any, money coming from this particular project.  But I do see the therapeutic value it has if you decide to finish it.  Completing this book may be the kind of closure that you need to really get on with things in a way that you haven’t been able to do before.  Even though it probably won’t hit the best seller list if you publish it, there can be other enriching rewards that go with the completion – and the closure – involved in this particular writing.  If anything, do it for yourself more than anyone or anything else.

Best Wishes and Many Blessings!

This week’s question is from Jill: “I do believe in the law of attraction to some degree and feel that the energy of my life is directly correlated to the energy I give off. However I also believe that sometimes the Universe does for us what we cannot do for ourselves…and the lessons get more intense if we refuse to listen.  When something bad happens I try to look for the lesson…..or how my own thoughts may have contributed.  The past few weeks I have experienced the largest string of bad luck in my life….ranging from injury to heartbreak to monetary to just plain stressful inconvenience. And I just can’t figure out what the Universe is trying to tell me that I am not hearing.  My question would be something around what is the lesson and advice to alter the energy?”

Reversed Ace of Pentacles – 2 of Wands – Reversed 8 of Pentacles

In between two reversed Pentacles cards, the 2 of Wands is centered in this reading.  This shows us the need to find balance in a chaotic situation – a situation that seems to actually stem from work and financial issues that have needed attention on some level.   With the Reversed Ace of Pentacles, it’s almost as if the hand is taking away a gift or an opportunity that was there for you.  Consider if you may have missed an opportunity in the recent past that related to career and/or money matters.

It seems that the Universe has slowed you down to a grinding halt so that you can have a chance to gain a new perspective about your life – and to focus on what you need to be paying attention to . . . which isn’t always the same things as we WANT to pay attention to.  For example, some people are so busy focusing on their love lives, when it’s their career that is literally demanding some attention.  And when they don’t pay attention to what they are called upon to look at, things start falling apart to get their attention – sometimes in not-so-nice ways, as you are currently experiencing.

The 2 of Wands is asking you to use this downtime while you heal and recover to consider your next step and direction.  The surrounding Pentacle cards in reverse seem to ask you to look at details and/or opportunities you have either missed, overlooked, or perhaps disregarded as unimportant.  It can even suggest an opportunity may have been there, but you were either afraid to make a change, or you simply didn’t view it as a real opportunity to move forward on.

The Reversed 8 of Pentacles indicates that perhaps you needed to pay more attention to certain details that were overlooked.  It suggests that perhaps your talents are not being properly expressed, and now things are standing still so that you can take a good look at where you are versus where you really want to be.  Jill, it looks like you are being asked to explore your work/career direction.  It feels like that is what has been asking for your attention for awhile now, but perhaps you have focused elsewhere instead.  Now you have the chance, with this unfortunate down time, to make good use of this opportunity presented to consider your plans, goals, and direction that you really want.  Down time can be productive – even if it comes to us painfully.

Best Wishes and Many Blessings!

Please keep in mind that I cannot guarantee inclusion of your question, as I’ll be pulling just one for each Tarot  Tuesday week, but if your submission is not pulled, you are welcome to send your question again (or send a new question) for another chance in a following week.

  •  Have a question you want to ask the Tarot, but can’t wait for your entry to get pulled for a Tarot Tuesday?

You can order your own personal Mini Reading (or another reading package of your choice) from Tarot Wisdom Readings:
