Advice Family strife is our subject,  no way around it.  The divorce or blowup,  the militant woman’s demands,  the marriage and  ‘this is the routine.’  The same situation at work where a walkout or strike –  or at least quitting or getting fired –  is afoot.  Repairing a damaged house is a parallel situation to these –  come to think of it!  –  and Tarot has.  She keeps working in this combative environment.  A whole family whines about one thing after another until you want to explode.  Employees at this company complain about tirades.

MEANINGS AND ILLUSTRATIONS:  OBSERVATION OF THE SPREAD

 

Oh dear.  Right off the bat there’s Tower (divorce) and Four of Wands (marriage).  Smack in the middle is the dissatisfied militant woman who is not getting what she deserves (or thinks she does) a/k/a  ‘the bitch.’  She can also be the victim.  And other other card means  ‘this keeps happening.’  That hits you in the face if you have even a little Tarot Verbatim™ Rider Waite experience.

 

Eight of Pentacles + Four of Wands is  ‘work for the company.’  It’s also construction work or working on a house.  Tower + Eight of Pentacles is employees being fired,  walking out,  quitting,  confronting,  striking or …  throwing things,  destroying things,  or having things thrown at them.

 

Queen of Swords is the dissatisfied demanding person,  so Queen of Swords + Eight of Pentacles is employees’ demands.  It could be her constant nagging and complaining,  too.

 

So we mostly have combat or reconstruction!

 

MEANINGS AND ILLUSTRATIONS:  INDIVIDUAL RIDER WAITE TAROT CARDS

Tower shows lightning blowing down a building and people falling out of it.  The crown at the top of the building suggests an overthrow of power.  It means divorce,  hitting or destroying,  explosion or blowing up in a temper tantrum,  combative,  outbursts,  confrontation,  beating.

Queen of Swords is the victim,  the bitch,  the complaining,  nagging, whining militant wench,  mama-bat.  She is also the woman who does without,  who is sacrificing (an earlier stage?) –   and the woman of strong character or strong woman.   An older woman with her hand outstretched,  palm partly turned upward in that gesture of imperious but importune demand we have all seen …  and done.

Eight of Pentacles always doing this over and over.  Same routine.  Work.  Job.  Employee.  Keep at it,  keep trucking.  The carpenter is at his work bench intently making one identical object after the other.

Four of Wands is home and marriage,  neighborhood and family,  the community of upstanding people.  Pictured is a society wedding which invokes the public aspect of marriage,  since it is uniting leading families.
