Advice Some of our best ideas, inspirations and realizations occur because we are in desperate need of something we lack. ‘Necessity is the mother of invention’ type thing. When we arrive at a new level of awareness, we realize how benighted we were back then, and may feel sorry for others still in that territory. Major realizations disorient a person, don’t they? He knows how to change, so why feel sorry for him?

Is this the first time you come here? Well … what to do:
*Go to Advice above which is a summary of the Messages. (Advice is everyone’s favorite part.)
*Go to Daily Message Tarot Analysis below. One or more of those sentences has something to say to you. Intuitively pick those out. They are about you and the people around you. They are about today and the days around it. (It is a group message like a horoscope, except Tarot isn’t based on someone else’s birth data, so it can be specific, accurate, detailed and direct. Our experiment here is “How much more accurate is it?”)
Did you come here for your predictions? – You are done now – See you tomorrow.
Without a question to focus the answer, four cards can mean contradictory things especially when the Spread has a card that negates other cards. Without a question also the pronouns in a group reading are more flexible, especially in some of these Rider Waite Tarot spreads. When a pronoun is in parentheses, feel very free to substitute. The question in a ‘real’ individual reading supplies at least half the information!

Questions to Ask Ourselves

Why feel sorry for yourself when you know you can leave?
He knows how to change, so why feel sorry for him?
Quit feeling sorry for yourself. Do you know how inappropriate for you that is?

Hanged Man
Knight of Swords – Five of Pentacles – Page of Cups
MEANINGS AND ILLUSTRATIONS: OBSERVATION OF THE SPREAD
Both Page of Cups and Hanged Man are about awareness, in different ways. Page of Cups is feeling strange or weird or awkward, or a notion that is strange, weird or inappropriate. Hanged Man is an intense realization, a eureka experience, an inspiration, a concept, a bright idea.
Knight of Swords is a change, a shift, leaving, something strikes , rushing headlong into something – that sort of thing. Five of Pentacles is poor times, feeling sorry for yourself, doing without or lacking, bankruptcy, being homeless or on the street, benighted, self-pity – the ‘dark night of the soul’ experience.
MEANINGS AND ILLUSTRATIONS: INDIVIDUAL RIDER WAITE TAROT CARDS
Both Page of Cups and Hanged Man are about awareness, in different ways. Page of Cups is feeling strange or weird or awkward, or a notion that is strange, weird or in appropriate. Hanged Man is an intense realization, a eureka experience, an inspiration, a concept, a bright idea.
Knight of Swords is a change, a shift, leaving, something strikes, rushing headlong into something – that sort of thing. Five of Pentacles is poor times, feeling sorry for yourself, doing without or lacking, bankruptcy, being homeless or on the street, benighted, self-pity – the ‘dark night of the soul’ experience.
MEANINGS AND ILLUSTRATIONS: INDIVIDUAL RIDER WAITE TAROT CARDS
Knight of Swords shows a fully armed knight leaning over the rushing horse’s neck, arm extended, cloth and mane whipped in the wind. His expression is intense in pursuit. But the Rider Waite Tarot card can also mean fleeing as well as going back and switching directions back and forth. It suggests a strike sometimes as well.
Five of Pentacles Depleted, exhausted, lacking what you need, numb with despair and homeless or bankrupt: Poor times, this Rider Waite Tarot card screams. A mother and wounded, crippled child in rags pass on foot by a cathedral where a hot meal and warm bed await – because they are so tired it doesn’t register as shelter!
Page of Cups Silly, inappropriate, awkward, strange or weird, foolish, see things differently, foolhardy: That is the fellow wearing women’s clothing and carrying around a fish in a cup. This can mean inspiration just as Hanged Man can. It suggests putting the sentence in question form, and also humor at times.
Hanged Man most often means ‘realize’ or ‘realization.’ An idea, concept, inspiration, eureka experience, “Get it” or understand, intense experience, intense awareness … to know. Telepathy or psychic experience. The Illustration depicts how ‘upside-down’ you feel when you suddenly realize something – maybe ‘something you knew already.’
