Four Card Spreads, Our Daily Spread
WE WILL NOT HAVE THE PHOTOS OF THE CARDS ON HERE FOR A WHILE BECAUSE STEFANIE HAS THEM AND I AM PUTTING UP THESE DAILY MESSAGES MYSELF NOW ========================================================================= Is this the first time you come here? Well … HOW TO USE THE MATERIAL WE HAVE FOR YOU HERE. Read the sentences, and pick out the ones that seem to apply to you, to the people around you. They are a Tarot analysis of your day’s circumstances. As the day (or several days) unfolds, you may find the information is relevant. Some of this information refers to a longer time period. The question is: “Tell the visitors here something useful and meaningful to them.” Often, your adopting the attitude you feel in the blog works for your day! Without a question to focus the answer, four cards can mean even contradictory things. Without a question also the pronouns in a group reading are less specific, more flexible, especially in some of these Rider Waite Tarot spreads. Especially when a pronoun is in parentheses, feel free to substitute. The Advice section sums up a general meaning of all the sentences. Remember to share your experience with a comment here if you have words for it … I spend two or more hours a day writing to you, after all! Photos of the animals that the people who call me support are in with the articles I wrote for you. Enjoy them too! Stefanie is the one who has posted the few we have here. She did not do much with a hundred or more I sent her. And you can call me at the 800 99 3 6 9 12 number from Eastern 1 p. m. to Eastern 1 a. m. at least, every day. I analyze business situations accurately too. (Testimonials are on the web site.) ========================================================================= 
Knight of Wands Five of Pentacles, Three of wands, Empress Meanings and Illustrations: Being poor. Money coming in. Being well off, beautiful woman, life of luxury. In a hurry. That’s the story, in the order of appearance of the Rider Waite Tarot cards. Can you make a sentence out of these? I thought so. Five of Pentacles. Dark night of the soul. Misery. Bum on the street. Doing without. Poor times. Left out in the cold. Feeling poorly. Cognitive disability. Rags, poverty, etc. Self-pity. Despair. Shame, guilt, hopelessness. Illustration is, yes, bums on the street in rags, with injuries, in the snow at night, passing by the church that has warmth and food because they are numb and don’t notice the welcome. Three of Wands: So right after dire desperate lack of funds, we have money coming in, income, profit, and good times ahead. This Rider Waite Tarot card is one of our regulars. (Honest, I don’t stack the deck – even use different decks for this on purpose!) Illustration shows the merchant eyeballing his merchandise and money sailing into port. Empress: The lap of luxury, the life of ease. Either being the beautiful dame who has it all, or the fellow who rewards himself with the beautiful dame to have it all for himself. Illustration shows a lipsticked maiden in a slinky robe sitting on fine cushions in a fertile field (cuz she’s a fertility goddess, get it?) with a dull spoiled facial expression you see on beauty queens. Knight of Wands: He is another regular lately. His horse is galloping along in a hurry. He is moving: moving along, pursuing, fleeing, moving on up, making fast progress. Not much to him – that’s about it. =========================================================== Advice is about when you hit bottom, better times are ahead, so take advantage of the momentum and pursue your luxury, your dream space. Rags to riches is a more frequent story than settled-down to riches. There’s something about the bottom of the heap that inspires creative thought if you’ve got it in you at all. It is the trappings of wealth, the luxuries, that initially inspire profit-making. Did the likes of Mr. Trump get their start lusting over fast cars and women? Probably. ============================================================ TAROT ANALYSIS Romantic Perspective: After a while, he misses the woman he loves enough to pursue her. She is a fine looking woman so she just waits until he does without long enough to get moving. She can do without until some fellow pursues her: She is a trophy woman. When he is left out in the cold, he is going to move on to some good looking lady. He lacks the income to chase such A Woman Like Her. She is getting away from being ashamed of being sexy. Business Perspective: The woman is going from rags to riches fast. In the glamor business, you can make fast money. She feels undeserving of the luxuries from all this money coming in so fast. The poor man made money fast, and has his beautiful bride. She did not make money in the glamor field until she moved out of town. With all her talent, she is/was broke, but now the money will be coming in fast. She is well on her way to making good money, and she has a life of ease, but feels like a failure. Having been poor for so long, this progress makes her feel very rich. She is on her way to a comfortable income, feeling guilty all the way.
Four Card Spreads, Our Daily Spread, Tarot Verbatim
He hurries over to the house of his beautiful woman to be her partner in love
Lovers
Four of Wands, Empress, Knight of Wands
Romantic Perspective:
He hurries over to the house of his beautiful woman to be her partner in love.
In a hurry to marry/live with the woman he loves.
She is so sexy men of good family pursue her to be her lover.
She is from a wealthy family, she gets ahead on that connection.
He is in a hurry to marry a woman who has connections and money.
That’s all I can think of. When you have marriage or wealthy family (Four of Wands), sexy beautiful rich woman (Empress), man who pursues (Knight of Wands) and Lovers … well those only go together in so many ways, and these are they.
Advice is if you are a female, let him pursue you because you are gorgeous; and if you are male, pursue that gorgeous woman. End of story!
Meanings and Illustrations:
Four of Wands: Marriage, wealthy family, that’s all that can be used in the present company. Illustration on the Rider Waite Tarot card shows a wedding of a leading community family.
Empress: Beautiful, wealthy, sexy woman. She is the beloved, the valentine girl. Illustration shows exactly that, with some fertility symbols.
Knight of Wands: What else can the guy-card in the company of these others do but pursue the girl? Illustration shows him pursuing madly.
Lovers: Lovers means lovers of course, and also connection. That is all we use of it here. Illustration shows a naked man and woman in the Garden of Eden with a guardian angel looking over them from, of course, above.
Conquer bad moods by doing something frivolous to take your mind off things
Fool
Ace of Swords, Devil, Two of Pentacles
Sometimes you have to deal with a big problem by ignoring it.
When you are ordered to do something wrong, there must be some way to not be there.
Conquer bad moods by doing something frivolous to take your mind off things.
To achieve the impossible, just keep trying.
Forget about the alternative of physical force.
The worst threat may never be.
Conquer this cycle of despair and optimism.
Ignore his/her nasty moods and make him/her feel silly.
You have to be optimistic when it’s one huge problem after another.
Moving parts have to break, you just don’t know when.
Have faith in the process of conquering the bad feelings/depression.
Combat a disability or handicap by continually making light of it.
A recurring problem has to not be there at times!
Keep the faith that even the worst will be overcome.
You just have to get nasty sometimes.
You go through this phase when you are young of being overcome by bad experiences.
This is general life advice that no matter how bad it is, don’t take it too seriously. Funny. That is one of the gifts of my readings: You are bigger than the problem, don’t let it get to you. (My father used to say, when I was a kid upset about some damn thing “Well, one of two things will happen: Either you will get over it, or you will die of it. Either way, getting upset won’t change it. After a while, you will forget all about it anyway.” He meant ‘so shut up already.’)
*We begin with the Ace of Swords which today means ‘the most’ and ‘conquer’ or ‘overcome’ or ‘be overcome.’ *Then we have the Devil, a very ambiguous heavy card that means ‘most anything nasty, and ‘a big problem’ as well ‘physical’ and ‘obstacle.’ *Then we have, in the Two of Pentacles, ‘it’s a cycle, it’s a phase’ and to keep it up, to keep trying, as well as ‘may or may not.’ *These are followed by the ‘oh, never mind’ Fool, which in Rider Waite Tarot means such things as young or youthful, to ignore, to be optimistic and ‘to not be’ as in ‘to not be there.’ The Fool is that wonderful mood where reality doesn’t matter, you have faith in the process.
The Fool and the Two of Pentacles are both lighthearted cards that suggest freedom. The Ace of Swords and the Devil are both heavy cards that suggest defeat or being overcome. (But the Ace of Swords’ main meaning is to overcome in battle.)
So the advice today is you are bigger than what ails your reality at this moment, and it will pass, so just ignore and rise above the whole thing, have faith that it’s a phase that must pass. And be happy. The Fool is a happy fella no matter what, and he’s on the road without provisions with his doggie companion.
Meanings and Illustrations:
Ace of Swords: Victory is its main song. With victory something else is defeated as a rule: The action goes both ways in the Tarot Verbatim school, as well as in Rider Waite Tarot. Ace of Swords also means such things as ‘the most’ and ‘an order’ and ‘must’ or ‘have to.’
Devil: Oh, here he is, that ugly glowering-faced hairy 500-pound gorilla in the room, looking very scary. This is anything detrimental, oppressive, nasty. This is the way you feel when you are depressed, “I can’t do anything about it.” But you can: See how the chains are loose on the necks? It is the force of habit of standing there being used to a bad situation or habit that has then standing there.
Two of Pentacles: Round and round, on and on, to everything there is a season, a phase, a cycle. It comes and it goes. Things are always in motion. The juggler has the mathematical sign of eternity around what he is juggling, and the ships in the background are going up and down on the waves. (By the way, this card can also mean dizziness or nausea!)
Fool: We close with being free, freedom, being not really present but going along making the best of things. The Fool is a happy-go-lucky fella who is on the road on a sunny day with a little snack, a rose and a doggie. Optimism is the song of the Fool.
