(LC- this is the largest number of cups I've ever seen in a reading- and then you kept pulling the same cards the Fool did- after ten shuffles. Very strange, and a first for me. Congrats! You are once again unique )

YOU are fucking scary!!!!

 

[FallingToFly]

YOU are fucking scary!!!!

Not intentionally, I swear.

 

[LadyCibelle]

Not intentionally, I swear.

Oh it wasn't a complaint! You just caught me by surprise. Your reading is a whole lot accurate.

Okay, without the cards out in front of me, just reerading the way tey lay...

Current situation is one of rising opportunities or challenges. either you have a current trauma that's going to effect how you face those, or they're going to come out of nowwhere and broadside you. I'd say, with the Chariot loomng, that it's the latter, and that how you handle your emotional state is going to effect how you get through the coming mess. Influencing you from behind is a strong, stable male figure, someone whose teachings and strength you can use to bolster your own. Past events indicates a strong, gracious feminine presence, a mother or grandmother maybe- the grace under pressure analogy in the flesh. Combined with that strong male, I'd say parents or parental figures to look back to as examples.

The wheel is the wild card- you don't know your own mind yet, so it hasn't stopped spinning to give you a clear focus on where to go. The self card says you're good at finding a solution and following through, but not always in a logical way, although it works in a practical sense. The home card says you've been through this before, and weathered it just fine.

The self card is another indicator that you're running blind right now- take some time to regroup and think things through before acting. The last card, the outlook, basically says that this is just the front edge of the storm- be careful what you believe, and take everything you're told with a grain of salt.

Fuck a duck...that's creepy as bejezus, FTF.

Fuck a duck...that's creepy as bejezus, FTF.

Did Rora warn everyone that i generally run at about 95%?

And drinking is a double-blind reading- I don't ask questions or let anything I know color it, I just do it.

Hey, if it works, it works- I ran a booth last year to raise money for the animal shelter- told people so many unpleasantly accurate things that they nearly lynched me in the town square.

Ah, the joys of small southern towns.

I wouldn't have lynched you, flutterbug.

I'd have put a whoopie cushion under your seat when you took a potty break.

lol...

Eh, well, the worst part of this town is the parents who won't let their kids play with my kids because they think I'm a witch a la The Wizard of Oz.

And just thinking about that makes me need another drink.

Pay no attention to the imbecilles behind the crosses. What thye send out shall be returned unto them three fold.

 

[FallingToFly]

how terribly accurate that seems.

*nudges* Hey, pretty one:

1st(question or sitch) - The Tower reversed-continued oppression, life in a rut. Entrapment in an unhappy situation.
2nd(current influences)- strength- Courage, fortitude, conviction, energy, determination, defiance. Innate ability, attainment at considerable peril.
3rd(future influences)-5 of Swords-uncertain outlook, chance of loss of defeat. possible misfortune befalling a friend. Seduction. Burial.
4th(past influences)- Knight of wands reversed- Discord, interruption, unexpected changes.
5th(past events)Judgment reversed- delays, disappointments, failure to face facts indecisions, procrastination. A failure to face facts
6th(future events)- 8 of wands reversed- Thorns of dispute, jealousy, harassment, discord, delay. stagnation.
7th(self)TheHermit, reversed- Imprudence, haste, rashness, prematurity, incorrect advice.
8th(home)- 6 of swords- Travel, a new road. Headstrong attempt to overcome difficulties. Success after anxiety
9th(heart)Death- transformation, unexpected change, abrupt change of the old self though not necessarily physical death.
10th(outlook/answer)King of Pentacles- Experienced and successful leader. A person of character and intelligence, business acumen. A loyal friend, reliable marriage partner.

I know you think all of this is negative- it isn't. Yes, where you are right now is not pretty, and it feels like it's sucking you under and holding you there, but you missed the last four cards and their meanings.

7th(self)TheHermit, reversed- Imprudence, haste, rashness, prematurity, incorrect advice.
Someone who, either through not listening, or listening to the wrong advice, has thrown themselves headlong into a muddle or conflict of some sort.

8th(home)- 6 of swords- Travel, a new road. Headstrong attempt to overcome difficulties. Success after anxiety
A door opening, a new path being presented. A chance to remove the trauma from the situation, make a new start, not necessarily by leaving the current environment, but by taking a new approach to an old problem.

9th(heart)Death- transformation, unexpected change, abrupt change of the old self though not necessarily physical death.
These represent your inner emotions and core feelings. The Death card represents a turning of the cycle- clearing away the old- thoughts, emotions, perceptions, prejudices- to make room for the new growth of the heart and mind.

10th(outlook/answer)King of Pentacles- Experienced and successful leader. A person of character and intelligence, business acumen. A loyal friend, reliable marriage partner.
This card, in the outlook or answer position, says that there's someone coming into your life to rely one, someone you can trust and who will offer you both support and encouragement. It's an extremely favorable card in this aspect, as it lets you know that you aren't alone- regardless of what you think.



Sweetheart- my IM, or my email, or my PM box are always open. As is my phone. Just give me a whistle if you need someone to give you a shoulder to cry on, or even someone to shake you up and get you giggling.

 

[Aurora Black]

I have a pretty good idea what my reading meant, but could you clarify things just to be sure?

Yeah, I was nodding my head and going "AHH" about it last night, but I was also drunk off my ass...

 

[Salvor-Hardon]

ok this has me really really intriqued.

 

[FallingToFly]

I suppose early morning tarot is the same as drunken tarot... especially on four hours of sleep.

Rora:

First card- current sitch or question- Empress reversed. Meanings:vacilliation, inaction, anxiety, wasting time and talents

second card, current influences- 5 of cups-hopeful outlook, favorable expections, new alliances, affinity

third card(top)- future influences on situation- queen of wands reversed-jealousy, ficlkeness, obstacles, unstable emotions, resistance

fourth card (bottom) past influences on situation-the hanged man-life in suspension, waiting for changes

fifth card(right)- past events- 6 of pentacles-philanthrophy, kindness (of yourself or others), or gain in a tangible sense

sixth card(left)- future events- Ace of wands-creation, new beginnings, fortune, enterprise, an adventure

seventh card(self)-knight of swords- speedy action, things put in motion. determination and vigor.

eighth card (home)-the sun- happiness, stable home life, good marraige, contentment and joy

ninth card(heart)- the heirophant- ritualism, mercy, compassion, inspiration, adapting to new circumstances

tenth card(outlook)-two of pentacles-difficulty in launching new projects, worry.

Cards 1 through 6 are all your "now and then" cards. They all say the same thing- not doing anything much, despite the encouragement of others. However, they also indicate that there's a definite change in plans (which we all know there is, so that is no trick to read) with a bright outlook. There are going to be obstacles, but then again, you knew that.

Now, cards 7 through ten. The self card means exactly what it says- things moving suddenly and decisively forward. The home card says that you currently have a good place to be- a stable home, and a loving support to bolster you up. The heart card is how you feel right now- it's the "grandfather" card- taking things carefully, but willing to adjust and adapt to the circumstances. In this case, it's allowing yourself the freedom to go through the motions and be patient. Considering your self card, I'd say that's not something you do often.

The outlook card is the most interesting, it's difficulty in launching new projects, wory- but not necessarily failure. It just says it's going to be difficult. (then again, nobody said life was anything but tough, right?)

Readings are always fun. I know, I know!

Not like you didn't know all this. I just think you have fun being accurate.

Ms FTF....if you are still in a reading frame of mind would you care to do mine?

A very basic clarification-

No matter how hard you try, sweetheart, there are times when you need to throw in the towel and let the situation handle itself. It isn't getting any better, and it's starting to undermine your faith in your own judgement, and no matter how bright it looks from a distance, it's holding you back.

But, good news- there's hope!

(Seriously, considering how very much not awake I am- if I'm even half right on reading anyone, I should be given a cookie. A crunchy butter cookie and a cup of tea...)

Thank you

and I'd give you the cookie and tea just for being you
