I haven't read since I did a reading for a friend around 6 years ago (lol, those cards are scary, man). And none for myself for....wow, probably over 10 years. So anyway, I've been wanting to do a reading about this documentary thing I want to do, so decided to last night. Probably shouldn't have, since I had just found out my ex is dying and that obviously affected my mood....but I've never been the queen of good timing, lol. Not thrilled about the reading, although I know that it's all coming from the inner psyche anyway and is just telling how I'm feeling about the question. Still, not thrilled. I did a second reading with a more specific but related question. And still not thrilled, lol. Interesting that the V of Wands (reversed) came up in both readings, as did the Page of Pentacles (reversed...unfortunately), that one being in "future" positions. Ack. I'm going to try again over the weekend. I'm sure that last night wasn't the right timing in the first place. Plus I burned some odd incense, not my usual. And I didn't have a candle. (Yeah, that's why, that's the ticket....gotta be! lol) |

That totally and completely is evident in the 5 card in the first reading...rather an best possible outcome, this is totally concious influence for the basis of the first question. I don't like the 7 of cups. lol. |

Avidly, it really is just like riding a bike...you just fall back into it pretty quickly. I go through spells with it but always do daily draws even if that is all I read. Today my card was The Empress. I've not seen it manifested yet.. |

I think we should all keep a measure of giggling adolescent inside us. It's good for the soul. |

I'm forgetting everything I used to know! Hey, Dede's right. I hadn't done a reading in over 5 years, and before that it had been like forever. I "knew" what the cards meant - sorta - when I laid them out. Meaning, I could tell what was positive and what was negative, what influences were at work, etc. Just had to get the book out to get specifics. I don't think you ever "lose" it though. That totally and completely is evident in the 5 card in the first reading What - that I'm a giggling adolescent? |

No, lol, that you are in need of guidance because of the 7 of Cups in the first reading. Because of the choices available and trying to make the proper choices...the 7 of Cups represents a multitude of choices and some are good and some are bad. You don't want to manifest the wrong one, so seeking guidance is all in your favor here about how to proceed with your project. |

That's where I usually trip up with stuff.....seeking guidance = NO problem for me, whatsoever. Understanding the "right" answer (vs. wishful thinking - which can be positive or negative) is the hard part. |

Well... Really, there is no "wrong" choice, cuz even the most negative of experiences is clearly a learning lesson. Not to mention my theory of destiny, what is to be will be. What has been, had to be. Ya know? But the uneasiness of not knowing which is the more 'positive' choice to make in terms of keeping calm and secure and all that good junk....that's what really chaps my cookies, lol. |

I hate chapped cookies. lol. I think you have several different avenues to pursue in the project but the other cards keep saying to rely on your inner sight...so perhaps the right choice is the one that you feel most comfortable with internally rather than one that might make sense in a rational objective way to an outsider. It needs to make sense to you. |

but the other cards keep saying to rely on your inner sight Is it literally possible to be enraptured and more joyful than any human has a right to feel AND scared to death at the same time? Cuz my insight - every fiber of my entire being - has been practically screaming at me "Do it, this is it, this is the one, this is the opportunity, this is the path....." I've never heard that voice before and I assure you I'm not psychotic. (Not yet anyway, lol) |

Did another set of readings last night - interesting, actually. I just included the details in my email to you this morning....which you probably already responded to, I need to check my inbox, lol..... (Thanks, btw, for your input - far better to get an objective viewpoint than to stew in my own assumptions!!) |

I answered you but from a life experience perspective rather than a tarot perspective....my daily draw kicked my butt and things are really dicey at work today. But yes, you are right about the second card...always read as if it were drawn upright. d'oh. I'll have some quiet time tomorrow and will look over your new readings. I really enjoy it. It's like a nerve pill to me. |

Coolio - I really do appreciate the "second opinion" thing. Really makes a greater difference than I'd imagined. Ya know, it occurs to me...this spiritual awakening, this quest for balance, this..whole thing -- I think one of the biggest issues for me is relying on others, trusting them to be forthright and honest and care about my best interests, etc. You know, all that stuff we humans should be able to do, but some of us learned at an early age to avoid. Opening up and letting someone in to that "inner realm" (i.e., sharing my tarot spread and receiving the input) is a huge huge step for me. I hadn't realized that until just this moment. Hmm....must ponder....time for a cig. |
