GUIDANCE When you’re as old as I am, you know all about things that most everyone is wondering about. He’s lost, and you let him figure it out for himself instead of being the know-it-all. But you wonder whether that is the wise thing when the situation is so very up-in-the-air. Some people are more willing than others to be the party-pooper at the festival of doubt.
Could This Be YOU?
Picture this: You look at the cards in your spread
You immediately get an idea
because you know a few of them intimately AND
you know a system that works
because you have had a few

Honestly asking myself if I’m crazy.
I wonder what’s real and what’s b.s.
Guessing the facts in a morass of data.
Not so sure he’s a friend: This is a shock.
How did I get to be this old? – what the heck!
Taking a good look, it seems the place is a mess.
Looking at cold hard facts and thinking I’m confused.
Don’t know what I’m looking for, there are so many possibilities.

Tarot Readings: Hermit and Seven of Cups
Looks like I lost control somehow.
Brain fog from being up all night, I guess.
Take a good look at this mess and ask yourself.
Seeing it the way it is shatters my world, sort of.
Looking at the pieces and wondering what to do.
Taking a good look since I’m confused and in doubt.
A religious person has a bizarre vision he questions.
The doctor ‘s examination raises all kinds of questions.

Chaos makes you wonder what’s real.

Hermit – Here’s a sober and saintly old guy who’s out to help us right where we are: He’s looking for us to provide a meal and a place to spend the night where he lives. He is wise and willing to advise. Hermit is our friend. He shines a light on our path, enlightens or wises us up – it’s a perilous road out there that he’s the guide to. Think of Hermit as the realist, the practical and pragmatic approach or person. This card very often translates ‘know.’
.
Hermit is all about search, and looking: Here are the words and phrases for that from today’s sentences: to look; taking a good look; looking at cold hard facts; what I’m looking for; looks like; take a good look at; seeing it the way it is; looking at; searching through.
.
Hermit is all about what’s real, what’s true, the facts and the truth … looking at the cold hard facts and investigating the situation.
.
Hermit is on the road and is on the path, and this card means both those things – as well as being on track.
.
Hermit appears for virtues that fit his story: honesty, helping, sincerity, kindness, coming the other person. He especially stands for sobriety.
.
Other things Hermit appears for are being religious; nighttime and being awake at night, or night travel; and being a doctor, counselor, or other healer. The garb he is wearing identifies him as a doctor in the Middle Ages.
Seven of Pentacles – What you see is what you get with Seven of Pentacles. You can see him leaning on his spade or shovel wondering about the plant. He doesn’t know, he wonders, he asks himself – and most of his language reflects this. He has done everything he can do for the plant to be successful in bearing cucumbers, but its future is uncertain. That uncertain future is a big part of Seven of Pentacles’ message.
.
Here are today’s words and phrases about all this: asking myself; ask yourself; he questions; raises questions; How did I?; Am I?; or is it? I wonder; guessing; I guess; wondering what to do; still wonder about it; I wonder what’s; makes you wonder; when you marvel; not so sure; it seems; I seem to have; in doubt; maybe; somehow; sort of, not knowing what to think, don’t know, and don’t know where.
Seven of Cups – This illustration represents the moment the SHTF, and it describes the shock and confusion we feel when, unexpectedly, we lose control, or our situation is out of control. Seven of Cups owns the word ‘bizarre.’ Think nasty surprises. Think brain fog, imagining things, crazy person, b.s., shock, ‘hits me in the face,’ and ‘what the heck.’ Think lost – things or people, including yourself. Think confused or drunk.
.
Think pieces of things, which includes your world or a dish being shattered, and which includes a jumble of unrelated items, like a purse being dumped out or a file cabinet in disarray. Seven of Cups also means phrases like ‘all kinds of things.’
.
This is the card for data in a mess or a house in a mess … or any mess. Your life in a mess, even. Chaos is the word with Seven of Cups.
.
Seven of Cups also describes being high, hallucinating, delirium tremens, having a vision.
.
The picture shows the magician’s apprentice story (or Pandora’s Box). In this story, a boo-boo has drastic consequences: the release of evil spirits. The good spirit is released after the fact. Think SHTF. The apprentice ‘bit off more than he can chew,’ and is confronted with a situation he cannot deal with that is widespread or ‘all over the place.’ Losing control, and things being out of control, are what Seven of Cups is all about. This card can appear as a warning that you are about to make a mess of things.
.
Among the ‘lesser includeds’ for Seven of Cups are all sorts of surprises and amazement, being caught unprepared, being shocked, and even The Muse experience – the trance we get into when we are creating, that seems to come in whole cloth from ‘out there.’
.

Once again we have two similar cards and an outlier, an unrelated one. Seven of Pentacles wonders and doesn’t know about the situation he is in (the plant is mature but has not yet blossomed) and Seven of Cups is presented with an out-of-control all-over-the-place scene around him.
.
Hermit, on the other hand, has been there and done that, and is a solution in search of a problem out on the road traveled by strangers – Everyman’s helpful friend. Hermit is wise, and Seven of Pentacles doesn’t know, wonders and questions. Hermit is an old monk with an ironclad routine in a serene life, and Seven of Cups is overwhelmed by everything at once going out of control in a nasty way. It’s suitable here that Hermit is the medic arriving on the scene of chaos with his wisdom intact.
.
Hermit is searching, and Seven of Pentacles is wondering. Hermit represents the facts and/or the truth that Seven of Pentacles wants to know. Hermit is sane and Seven of Cups can be a crazy person (or dealing with one). We also have a picture of being the wise one, the one who knows, when others are speculating, wondering, doubting. So Hermit is the sober one at the drunken party or at the festival of doubt, maybe the (? Virgo?) know-it-all whose friends are wondering about something.
.
Hermit is night, and being up at night, and Seven of Cups is a dream or nightmare.
.
Hermit is sober and Seven of Cups can be a disorderly drunk, can be high, or even be delirium tremens.
.
Hermit is a religious person, and Seven of Cups is a vision. Today Seven of Pentacles has him doubting the vision.
.
So we go from doubt in Seven of Pentacles to searching for the facts or the truth in Hermit. These cards describe an investigator assembling the facts ( Hermit) from a lot of unrelated clues ( Seven of Cups) to answer the whodunit question in his mind ( Seven of Pentacles).
.
Like I keep saying, when you have two similar cards and one that is different, you have stories.
.
AND NOW WITHOUT THE PICTURES:

..…..………..
When I find myself in a whirlwind of chaos, I try to figure it out for myself, of course, but I am also mindful that human history is a long chaotic saga, and other humans have probably encountered a similar quandary to what I feel around me. So I go on a search for clues to the chaos, and also for people who experienced something similar and survived: They are my best friends now!

Guidance Let’s be upbeat about our messes. The old man with a voluptuous babe, for instance. Muddled eras of life, and how they, like a storm, clear up, but also how chaos creeps in right around a corner when we are not looking, like a cloud over the sun does. How good it feels when the fog in our heart clears and we begin to notice that and sing ‘It Don’t Hurt Anymore.’ Advice is to look – to watch for early signs of decay or recovery … to look where we are going so we don’t fall down … as much.

Tarot Readings: The Fog Clears (Seven of Cups and Six of Swords)
So happy I’m over the brain fog and thinking clearly.
I see how confused I was and am glad I’m not that way anymore.
I find my way out of a mess and feel so good about it.
Look, the chaos is receding and I feel like singing.
Not looking for that needle in the haystack anymore, thank God.
Okay, I sobered up; my out-of-control partying days are over.
Now that I’m older, I no longer babble on about all sorts of things.
I was shaken up when I was told the truth, but I got over it.
Looking for a way out of the maze, here: Do tell me!
I’m feeling good since I left the broken place and got treatment.
You laid the facts on me and shattered my world, but I shall survive.
I see through the happy illusion that is my life as I go along.
So happy to get out of here and be on my way; it is driving me crazy.
He takes leave of his senses and is gaga for a voluptuous babe.
I’m out of the woods, with treatment, on the way to good health.
Tarot Readings: Leaving Our Senses (Hermit and Six of Swords)
I left at night on the road, got lost, and am here to tell the story.
I avoid people who show and tell where I messed up.
Take one good look at crazy-talking people and head the other way.
Glad to see him go – he made such a mess for an old guy.
People say the damnedest things as they duck out on the facts.
A confused old man wanders back to happier times.
She’s a babe and he’s an old man who is shocked to see better times ahead.
Now, Part Two,
Do you want to know a little, or a lot, about how this Tarot Verbatim™ thing works? If so,
*Go to Learn Tarot by Observing section below. This tells about the combined four pictures in the Tarot Readings – the pictures above here. It explains how these four cards get together in your mind to make the messages. HERE ARE PHRASES FOR ALL SIX 2-CARD COMBINATIONSis a stream-of-consciousness bridge to your subconscious if you use it regularly – people report.
*Go to Learn Tarot by Pictures. It is what each of the four cards, by itself, has to say. It shows you how that illustration makes that card’s meanings in today’s Spread. All the words of each Tarot card reading you see here are a phrase-by-phrase translation of the scene pictured on those cards: no filler, no psychic impressions, no spirit guide. Word-for-word Tarot Verbatim™.
You can put all this together and intuitively see yourself how Tarot Verbatim™ works.
This is a group reading, with no Questioner and no Question to limit what the cards say, so there’s more variety – even contradictions – and also the pronouns are more flexible. If it feels like it’s yours, and it says ‘he,’ and you’re a ‘she,’ feel free to adopt it anyway.
Star
Hermit – Seven of Cups – Six of Swords
What a movie we have here in the four pictures! In the middle is the muddle and the mess of our situation. To the left is seeing it clearly, understanding it; to the right is getting out of it and putting it behind for better times; above is being happy and feeling good all over.
Here’s how that goes:
In the middle is the muddle and the mess of our situation.
To the left is seeing it clearly, understanding it;
to the right is getting out of it and putting it behind for better times;
above is being happy and feeling good all over.
Hermit and Six of Swords are both on the road, leaving one place and going to another. Hermit has left his cozy monastery, where he is a service monk, and is going out on the road at night to help travelers. Six of Swords is leaving a bad scene for better times ahead.
Hermit and Seven of Cups Hermit is sane; Seven of Cups is out of control, crazy.
Hermit and Star Hermit is the old man; Star is the voluptuous babe. Hermit is celibate (make that monogamous, these days), and Star is party mode, sexy, even nude. Hermit is sober, and Star is, as we said, in party mode.
Hermit and Star Hermit is the doctor or healer; Star is being in great robust health.

Hermit He comes to you as a devoted caretaker, a healer or doctor, a sane and sober individual who is not sexual in most stories. He is finding his way on the road. He is looking out for and looking for. He is an old or older man. He shows, advises, demonstrates and counsels. He is a friend, is sincere. He is patient.
Seven of Cups Things have gone awry. ‘Out of control’ is the core meaning of Seven of Cups in Tarot Verbatim™ as it depicts Pandora’s Box or Sorcerer’s Apprentice – mischievous spirits on the loose. Disorganized unrelated object, like debris scattered … or a situation that is like that … or a mind or life that is like that. Crazy, it often says.
Six of Swords Well, that’s over. Things have got to get better. I’m out of this bad place, bad scene. I am on to something better, things are improving. I am over what ailed me, too. Six of Swords is the way out. Six of Swords is putting the past behind. Starting over in life, maybe with nothing, no resources. Heading out. It is a sad scene but with hope.
Star Feeling good all over – happy and healthy, singing in the shower. Performing or presenting or explaining or confessing or telling or saying or pouring your guts out or saying ‘I love you’: These are Star in action. A shapely woman, of course. Enthusiasm, being very happy or even thrilled about something. Star is a partying card, naturally. It can be a sales pitch too.

Guidance DRIVE SAFELY TODAY! KEEP TRACK OF ANYTHING YOU COULD LOSE, INCLUDING PETS! We are helping – or being helped – in bad times, in times of distress, despair or need. Going out on foot looking, going out on the road looking, going through a blighted neighborhood looking for out-of-control, messed up situations to help people in distress. This process refers to spiritual life too, emphatically: “When we feel an emptiness and are seeking spiritually, we chase after a lot of junk.” Sometimes it is ourselves we have to help in down times.
Are YOU here for the first time? Come in!
People love this place! Our site is divided into four sections: Guidance, Tarot Readings, Learn Tarot by Observation, and Learn Tarot by Pictures.
If you just want your daily look ahead, Guidance and Tarot Readings are all you need. ‘Guidance’ (above) is a summary of what the cards are telling visitors to be aware of this day.
‘Group Tarot Cards Reading’ (just below this) is the actual word-for-word messages from the pictures of the four cards you see – to everyone. These readings are about you and the people around you. They are about today and the days around it. So, go ahead and pick the sentences you feel are yours and decide whether to encourage or reject them for yourself.
Did you come here for your predictions? – You are done now – See you tomorrow. The family of commenters here would love for you to join in (the very last thing, at the bottom).

Now, Part Two,
Do you want to know a little, or a lot, about how this Tarot Verbatim™ thing works? If so,
*Go to Learn Tarot by Observing section below. This tells about the combined four pictures in the Tarot Readings – the pictures above here. It explains how these four cards get together in your mind to make the messages.
*Go to Learn Tarot by Pictures. It is what each of the four cards, by itself, has to say. It shows you how that illustration makes that card’s meanings in today’s Spread. All the words of each Tarot card reading you see here are a phrase-by-phrase translation of the scene pictured on those cards: no filler, no psychic impressions, no spirit guide. Word-for-word Tarot Verbatim™.
You can put all this together and intuitively see yourself how Tarot Verbatim™ works.
This is a group reading, with no Questioner and no Question to limit what the cards say, so there’s more variety – even contradictions – and also the pronouns are more flexible. If it feels like it’s yours, and it says ‘he,’ and you’re a ‘she,’ feel free to adopt it anyway.
Knight of Wands
Five of Pentacles – Hermit – Seven of Cups
.
Hermit and Knight of Wands are on the road. Hermit is on foot looking for people to help at night. Knight of Wands is speeding on the road in the daytime, and can be fleeing or pursuing. Hermit is a patient wise old man, celibate. Knight of Wands is a young impatient man who is pursuing.
Hermit and Knight of Wands together mean things like: out looking, running around looking, an old man driving around, a friend who comes in a hurry, fleeing from a friend, honest folks move out of an area, quickly brings clarity, quickly leave when I take a good look at, rushes over to calm us down, I was calm as I headed pell mell, your friend rapidly.
Hermit and Five of Pentacles: Hermit goes out to help; Five of Pentacles is in dire need of help. Hermit is the monk and Five of Pentacles is Dark Night of the Soul, a recognized phase of spiritual life, particularly for Roman Catholic mystics. Incidentally, Hermit has a walking stick and Five of Pentacles has crutches.
Hermit and Seven of Cups are looking for what is lost … or are lost and looking. They are a confused old man, they are brain fog from being up all night, they are looking at the pieces, they are looking for the needle in the haystack, they are taking a good look at this mess, they are clarifying the confusion.
Five of Pentacles and Seven of Cups describe brain fog in different ways. Five of Pentacles is numb with despair, trudging through desperate times. Seven of Cups is shock and confusion as things go out of control. Five of Pentacles talks about poverty, poverty of the soul, lack and disability and sickness. Seven of Cups talks about insanity, delusions and hallucinations, and things falling apart. (You don’t like to see them in one another’s company.)
Five of Pentacles and Hermit and Seven of Cups are all night scenes. Sometimes that is meaningful, especially when both Hermit and Knight of Wands are on the road, and Seven of Cups means ‘going out of control.’
Seven of Cups and Knight of Wands is going out of control at high speed on the road. It is also making a mess by being in a hurry. Just as …
… Five of Pentacles and Knight of Wands is losing something by being in a hurry.
So be careful today! Avoid brain fog! Remember, Hermit is clarity of mind, is understanding. So Five of Pentacles and Hermit is a lack of understanding and clarity. And Seven of Cups means befuddled and confused! Here’s the equation, okay?
+ = These could read “Looking for the needle in the haystack.”
.
Five of Pentacles shows a mother and son who are homeless and sick (Son is on crutches) in rags who are so benumbed that they are walking in a snowstorm past a cathedral where they could have food and shelter. The despair depicted reflects a phase of spiritual maturity that recurs called ‘Dark Night of the Soul,’ which is a title of one of the Western mysticism books.
A common meaning for Five of Pentacles is ‘lack of’ or ‘shortage,’ including bookkeeping matters. It means being poor, being homeless (losing the house), the ghetto, being sick, being crippled or injured, desperation and despair, and of course losing it all. Sometimes it stands for self-pity regardless of circumstances (“Poor me.”)
Hermit depicts a monk who goes out at night with a lantern to find and help travelers in distress. (In this spread, he is looking at them there by the church!) He is on the road at night. This Rider Waite Tarot card also means understanding, learning, a friend, a friend comes to (you), a friend helps, and a counselor or medical healer. It indicates that someone will come to you if that is the question. In our spread today, he is looking for something.
Seven of Cups Well, here’s the messed up, scrambled, lost things (or people or animals). Debris and detritus. Out of control. It describes the fix we are in when we bite off more than we can chew, when things go awry and we don’t know what we did to make that happen … like when we’re on the computer too long?
The illustration is based on the Pandora’s Box story or on the Sorcerer’s Apprentice story. In both of these stories, bad spirits are released from confinement and things are in disarray.
Knight of Wands is getting out in a hurry, by the illustration. His horse is disturbed,rearing, front feet up. The Knight’s clothes indicate some speed, and his expression is animated, maybe even fearful. In use, he will show up for pursuing as well as fleeing, but Knight of Swords is more obviously the pursuer.

Death
Hermit, Nine of Swords, Seven of Cups
Meanings and Illustrations: Observation of the Spread
First off, our first three cards are night scenes, and two of them (Nine of Swords and Seven of Cups) are about nightmares. The other is a friend coming to help, or treatment from a physician.
Next we notice that Hermit is ‘rational’ and Seven of Cups is ‘irrational.’
Hermit is calm, and the next Rider Waite Tarot card is fear, apprehension, anxiety, nervousness.
Then, the remaining Tarot card is Death, which, in the Tarot Verbatim system, means no-never-not – is a negating card. In the four-card configuration we are using, that negative card can attach itself to any of the others. This makes for (1) flexibility and (2) contradictory meanings or sentences. Death rarely literally means ‘death’ unless the theme is established outside of its presence, usually by the Eight of Swords, who, shhhh, is nowhere around.
Notice we have two ‘Perspectives’ that are opposite. The Death card does this. Gotta watch that one!
Meanings and Illustrations: Individual Rider Waite Tarot Cards
Hermit is, in this spread, the friend, the friend who comes to help, the rational view, taking a good look, investigating, analyzing, examining, going out hunting for, going out, seeking, seeking help, the facts, the truth, being sensible, doctor or physician, diagnosis, and comforting.
What holds these – and more we aren’t using today – meanings of The Hermit together is the story: The monk goes out seeking people who need help, and he calmly brings them comfort.
Nine of Swords is self-explanatory: A person sits up in bed, hands to head in despair, unable to sleep. Fear, anxiety, worry, up nights crying.
Seven of Cups shows disparate, unrelated, items in a cloud, and a dark-robed figure taken aback contemplating this. The story is Pandora’s Box and/or The Sorcerer’s Apprentice. In modern parlance, the poop hits the fan. It means ‘things,’ plural, as in Things Are Out Of Control! Things fall apart.
Death means any negative word. It negates the meaning of any card it can touch: In this configuration, that’s all of them. In the illustration, he is not the king any more because he is dead. This card in Tarot Verbatim has other meanings, most of which aren’t being used here, such as ‘end.’

Seven of Cups
Hermit, Two of Pentacles, Hanged Man
The pattern here is two cards that mean ‘to understand’, each followed by a card that means something out of control or unstable. So we are saying something twice.
What advice are we saying? To take a good look, an intuitive look, at the loose cannons in our personal lives, understand and be aware of them. Those loose cannons are not presented here as problems but more as some underfoot stuff that gets in the way that you have to step around. A time of flux demands attention, analysis and intuitive sensing because fluxes are easy turning points, whether the turn is accidental or intended.
Perspectives:
Look around and see the fog.
See the same thing over and over and realize it makes no sense.
Analyzing the instabilities and seeing each separate unrelated instance.
You keep looking and see all sorts of things.
Now that I am sober, I realize I was only seeing things.
Knowing how silly all these things are makes you realize.
To know both factually and intuitively that it’s one damn-fool thing after another.
When you see how indecisive he/she is, you realize the shit has hit the fan.
When a wise man is being foolish, he realizes he is out of control.
Examining its erratic movement, (you) realize it’s disintegrating.
Keep looking for individual pieces that you relate to.
The old man is unsteady, he feels himself losing control.
Sometimes a sensible man’s imagination runs wild.
Seeing things, you realize you may or may not be sober.
He realizes that sometimes being kind and helpful makes a mess of things.
Hermit: The kind monk is looking at night with a lantern for travelers he can help. He is old, sensible and sober and wise. This Rider Waite Tarot card calls for words like: see, analyzing, knowing,examining, and ‘take a good look.’
Two of Pentacles: You see the back and forth movements of the juggler, the ships tossed up and down on wave s behind him. This Rider Waite Tarot card refers to such words as: around, over and over, instabilities, keep ___ing, now that, how silly, one thing after another, indecisive, foolishk, erratic movement, unsteady, may or may not, and sometimes.
Hanged Man: ‘To realize’ is the most frequent word Hanged Man calls for, along with ‘see’, relate to, intuitively, feels or senses, and imagination. The illustration depicts how you feel when you experience eureka, when you realize what you already know but never quite fully grasped. It depicts the very different view of the world you have when you have been spiritual for a while, and are becoming a citizen of other dimensions.
Seven of Cups: Illustration of the strange objects in the cloud is about either Pandora’s Box or the Sorcerer’s Apprentice. It is about spiritual things invading physical reality … which reminds you of what I just said about the Hanged Man. It brings forth many different phrases but they are pretty much on the same target. Here are the words we find for it in this spread: fog, makes no sense, each separate unrelated instance, all sorts of things, only seeing things, all these things, damn-fool thing, shit has hit the fan, out of control, disintegrating, individual pieces, losing control, runs wild, imagination runs wild, seeing things and makes a mess of things.
