Tarot Verbatim
Today is Email Reading day, Wednesday. We have a little different story here from a visitor who is willing to share her Email Reading.
.
You can Google any pair of her cards to get more information on their combined meanings, or you can Google a single one. You can also purchase an email reading of your own – no history is necessary, only a specific focused question, and it’s low-priced. See all about it at the Email Reading tab up there. Lately, it may take several days to get your answer because more people are asking than usual.
.
Are you serious about Tarot? See the ‘Get them now’ bar over there? It is about some profound training that will get your subconscious involved in your Tarot life more directly than ever. The book I wrote as a gift to subscribers has things in it you will not find anywhere else. Not a word is wasted in its 56 pages.
Today’s Client says:
- I got involved with a public person (singer in a small community) and after a few disappointments, we stopped to talk, I got so overwhelmed that I started a creative blog to try to show my love, but things got out of control inside the community, and this leads to a conflict that restricts me to go back to the parties. Will he talk again with me, he has any interest in being a solution for the problem?
.
.
.
Question: Will he talk again with me; does he have any interest in being a solution to the problem?

Performers often ask dedicated fans to take down their web sites about them. There’s a strategy behind this, something about losing control of your brand. His concern here, according to Tarot, is his image.

Ace of Swords – No room for doubt here. Winner take all. It’s all one way. It’s 100% unequivocally, no room for doubt. It’s (this) or else. Defeat totally or victory totally, no gray zone. Here’s the main point, the most important (whatever). Here’s what has to be. Here is the most extreme, the best or maybe even the worst (depending on the story).
.
Ace of Swords is a threat or is a challenge too – a do-it-or-perish kind of challenge.
.
The illustration says this just as unequivocally. A hand grasps an upright double-edged sword which is crowned, and then the crown is crowned with the laurel leaves of victory.
Lovers – What a hodgepodge of of meanings and symbols we have here! Put the illustration’s concepts together, and you have the idea that the sexual bond a couple has for one another is of the same invasive nature as the bond divinity has for humans. The volcano is there, and the twin trees from the Garden of Eden saga are there, to confess all is not warm-fuzzy love.
.
Lovers has more miscellaneous meanings than most cards. Although Lovers obviously means lovers, and a couple, and sexual passion (what with the snake and the volcano and the nudity), you find it showing up more frequently to mean connection (to connect; we connect; direct connection), contact, being with, plural pronouns we/us/they/them, partner(s), getting together, being on the same side … even, sometimes, standing next to a person (propinquity).
.
A good example of Lovers’ propensity to have wildly miscellaneous meanings is that accompanied by Seven of Cups (the cloud), the volcano in Lovers says ‘pyroclastic’ for the pyroclastic flow volcanoes have. A far reach, yes.
.
The angel represents both surveillance (He is watching them: Is he the angel that evicted them from paradise?) and protection. The protection extends to insurance, and to being covered by insurance. And the angel of course represents God’s interest in those humans. A connection to God therefore is one of Lover’s meanings.
.
The angel also brings Lovers ‘higher-ups’ in job questions.
.
And don’t forget the angel brings eavesdropping to Lovers, along with the surveillance. If Hermit is around, there’s an investigation, not just someone butting in being nosy.
.
Page of Wands – Along with Page of Pentacles, Page of Wands’ source of meanings is that pages were apprentice knights who were being trained and tested to see whether they could perform knighthood’s role. This training was official and had several tests to it, so pages aim to please, to measure up. Identity is a main theme of both Page of Pentacles’ and Page of Wands’ applications.
.
Page of Wands specifically is the well-spoken well-dressed clean-cut fresh-faced good guy. Usually young or youngish. This is Prince Charming. He is associated not just with being but with speaking, so he stands up for what he believes … is a stand-up guy, as we say. He is proud … proud to be whatever he is being.
.
Less obvious from the picture is the fact Page of Wands (like Hierophant, also not-so-obviously) means ‘physical.’ Page of Wands translates ‘bodily’ in various contexts – like today’s ‘insured for bodily injury.’
.
Page of Wands translates ‘person’ as well as ‘personal.’ It also translates ‘self.’
.
Think of it this way. Both Page of Pentacles and Page of Wands mean words like he, him, self, person, guy, man, good-guy, etc. But Page of Pentacles adds words about thinking and feeling, and Page of Wands adds words about speaking and standing for something.

.
Ace of Swords is winning, being superior, being the champion; Page of Wands is the one who does that: He is a winner, he stands for, he stands up for, he speaks up proudly. Centered between them is Lovers which is about being on a side, connected one-on-one. These three cards roughly state something like: We are absolutely the good guys; we are winners. Unity.
.
These three cards also give you a theme of directly connecting verbally: getting the point across to them. Connecting verbally when the right words are said. Language is the best way to get on the same page with someone.
.
We have a picture of proud unity – of the ‘ us’ without the ‘ them,’ of how good we feel about ourselves when we connect with what we feel is the best, the supremely right (whatever it is). Note that all we speak of is the generality. This applies to excellence of any sort. For all I know, it’s being the best quilter, the best canner, or the fellow who shoots the straightest. It doesn’t have to be about moral superiority or power.

We humans … even the worst of us, have you noticed? … have to feel we are right, we are justified, and we seek out other humans who have the same values, sentiments, or the same delusions we have. It’s this warm feeling of ‘us guys are the good guys’ that give humans a reason for living, a raison d’être, so we seek our tribe.

The first spread is your answer. The gist of your whole answer is: Since there are factors that make this difficult, focus your whole energy on the endeavor, and assert yourself. Suggestion is to not accept someone’s help who feels superior or more powerful. The tight budget is a factor, counterbalanced by your desire for freedom and privacy.

GUIDANCE Making the best of the worst – transmuting, say, the worst parts of ourselves into something presentable – is the business of life, to those of us who are grownups. It’s called ‘working on yourself’ by some people. The flip side of this, conversely, is that a really evil-intentioned person is going to have to look good. So, we overcome our bad side, and we can be overcome by people who camouflage theirs.

LEARN TAROT BY OBSERVING
LEARN TAROT BY PICTURES
.………..………. .……..…….. A study in contrasts here. Moon is the worst, the downside, the shadow side, the most evil, ugly, wrong … think of Moon as ‘maximum fuckedupness.’
To its left is Ace of Swords, which represents an extreme (the most), means ‘have to’ and ‘must,’ and also represents a threat. As a naked blade brandished, Ace of Swords also represents surgery and a weapon. You really don’t like to see this naked blade of force next to Moon, the crime and the ‘something terrible.’ Those two could be about a murder – and Page of Wands is a body! (No, I didn’t include that in the readings.) Redemption comes in that Ace of Swords also means to overcome, to be a winner. Overcoming is the main theme of today’s readings – overcoming evil, overcoming something really challenging, threatening, or bad.
To its right is the good guy, good-looking guy, and talk – young Mr. Page of Wands. Now we have a clean-cut fellow who’s evil (Moon), and who’s a threat (Ace of Swords). We also have the challenge (Ace of Swords) of being clean, we have overcoming (Ace of Swords again) and looking good. We also have ‘have to look good,’ because Ace of Swords is ‘have to,’ remember?
Since Page of Wands also means talk, we have ‘talk dirty’ or ‘potty mouth’ when Moon joins in. These two (Moon and Page of Wands) are also evil looking good, and evil talking respectably, since Page of Wands is also the respectable image. Now, with Ace of Swords being the extreme of anything, and Page of Wands being the handsome man, and being the body in good shape, well, you have the most handsome man, and you have being in the very best physical shape … but not with Moon hanging around in today’s spread! Looks are important, these two also say, with Ace of Swords, of course, being important, and Page of Wands being the looks.

FOR A DEEP LOOK AT A SINGLE CARD’S MEANING, TYPE THAT CARD’S NAME AND ‘TAROT VERBATIM’ INTO GOOGLE, AND GET A FULL REPORT FROM THIS SITE’S ARCHIVES.
Ace of Swords……. You just know the main meanings of Ace of Swords, looking at a picture of a hand holding a big double-edged sword straight up, and the sword is crowned, and the crown is crowned with a victory sprig of laurel leaves. Anybody sees victory, force, being a winner, and a challenge there. And probably anybody would also see the whole ‘overcoming’ theme Ace of Swords owns. And of course Ace of Swords does mean all of those things.
From there, Ace of Swords spreads out to mean ‘have to’ and ‘must,’ along with its ‘force’ meanings. It also is a threat (no kidding). A hand with a knife in it also represents a weapon (‘armed’), and surgery.
Ace of Swords, which represents an extreme (the most); means ‘have to’ and ‘must’; and also represents a threat. As a naked blade brandished, Ace of Swords also represents surgery and a weapon.
One of the main meanings for this Ace of Swords card is overcoming – to overcome anything, and overcome it definitively, as a winner. It is an accomplishment like that, and can translate ‘accomplishment.’ Remember that Ace of Swords also translates as the challenge – faced with a challenge. When it means ‘challenge,’ there is a presumption of overcoming that challenge, usually. Ace of Swords can also be invincible, the unstoppable force.
Moon…….. Here ya go, ‘the worst card in the deck,’ the evil one, black magic, things scary or even terrifying and terrible. Fear. Nightmare. Hate. It translates ‘terrible’ and ‘worst,’ often. But, it can also just mean ‘ugly,’ can just mean ‘mistake,’ and sometimes is the inspiration of The Muse, or psychism. Moon is such a general card that what’s awful is usually represented by neighboring cards. So Moon is not an anchor card (a lead card), for sure.
You really don’t like to see Moon in tandem with any kind of dangerous-influence card, like Ace of Swords here today. The best those two can say is ‘overcoming evil.’ The worst (and Moon translates ‘worst,’ remember) would be, say, ‘weapon of mass destruction.’
Moon’s illustration bears explanation. First, those two plain-looking ordinary towers are fearful things in various myths. They are landmarks of ‘the end of the earth,’ back in the days when the earth was flat and that was the most terrifying place. They are also evil. Beyond them lay dragons and unknown terrors.
Next, you’re in a swamp, and there’s a path reminiscent of the golden one in Ace of Pentacles (which is the Right-hand Path), but it goes past those towers that mark ‘here lie dragons’ territory. This is the road to hell or the Left-hand Path. Note there’s no symbols of progress like the lilies, for purity, in the beginning of Ace of Pentacles’ path, and the rose arbor at its end, for victory.
So what does Left-hand Path mean, anyway? It is backwards evolution. Life forms are supposed to, and destined to, become less dense, less physical, and that is evolving, according to esoteric wisdom. To become more dense is to head toward evil, therefore – to devolve. (So people are supposed to have a spiritual life, and to remove from their personality the dross elements of it.) Demons are spirits that are headed to being as dense, as physical, as they can. That is why the blood sacrifices; the demons use the terror and the fumes of the blood to get themselves more into physical form.
In more than one myth, the road beyond the two towers is the road to hell. And, yes, ancient religions, more than one of them, have hell. Apollo is associated with one of these sagas, and there is a hell in Norse theology, run by a lady named Hela, where you sit naked on ice.
Next, you have that purple lobster about to embark on a land journey on that road to hell. That’s all wrong, and Moon means ‘wrong.’ And you also have a coyote and a dog howling together at the moon; and dogs and coyotes are enemies. (By the way, ‘enemy’ is one of Moon’s meanings.)
Page of Wands…...And here comes that fresh-faced young fellow, in the company of such heavies! Page of Wands is the good-looking person, usually a handsome fellow, all dressed up with good things to present and tell us about. Page of Wands is about image, being a particular kind of person, one’s name, one’s reputation. He is Prince Charming and ‘the fair-haired boy,’ every mother’s favorite son.
As a Page, he is an apprentice, at the stage of finding his place in society, so he is making an effort to be as attractive as he can to everyone, and to fit in. He is the acceptable person, the one who has the right look (for whatever is the subject).
Page of Wands is one of the say/talk/tell theme cards. He means to say what he really thinks and feels, to stand up for who is is, to state his position clearly – the honest upfront upright person.
.
.
I state my position unequivocally, clearly, even when it’s wrong for the place I’m in. I am who I am even in a setting that is diametrically opposed to that. Having overcome my vices, I am proud of myself. I admit my mistakes when I am wrong, too. When you have overcome the worst of times, you have respect because of who you are.

Now we show where each of the phrases in each of the sentences comes from:
