Tarot Readings for You for April 27-28, 2017 Thursday-Friday©
GUIDANCE Here I am incubating a change, like a chrysalis in a cocoon who doesn’t know that it’s wings that are pressing against him in the cramped space … yet. Then suddenly he bursts forth with new perspective, new abilities, even a new physical form. Nothing exciting about being a worm, and the next thing you know, you can flutter.

Eight of Swords – In Tarot Verbatim, Eight of Swords is the actual death card. On one hand, it means limitations, can’t and unable to and disabled, being stuck or being in a rut, locked up (jail, prison), or any sort of incapacity. Being locked up, as in jail or prison, or your items in a safe also is ruled by Eight of Swords.
,
Actually, ‘contained’ is the key word for this set of meanings, so you find Eight of Swords appearing when you ask where a lost item is, meaning it’s in a container (a glove box, drawer, etc.).
.
On the other hand, note that the victim (yes, Eight of Swords also means victim) is loosely tied, the swords are stuck in the mud by their tips, and no one is around. Eight of Swords is often the kind of ‘can’t’ that is an excuse and means ‘ain’t gonna.’
.
Use your imagination, because Eight of Swords expands to more miscellaneous related concepts like being in a rut, cocooning, being fenced in (a literal fence, or the one in the cowboy song), what holds you (or anyone or anything) back, what suppresses, or suppressing something, ‘hands are tied,’ when that is an excuse and when it isn’t.
.
This is rarer, but the woman is isolated from the house on the hill, which gives Eight of Swords a category about being marginalized, the glass ceiling, a helpless feeling, self-imposed limitations and blocks, and even being shunned or untouchable in some way.
Judgment – Judgment is one of the cards that has a lot of meanings related only by the illustration – so it’s not an anchor card. Usually, you identify the subject of your Tarot talk, and then fit Judgment in.
.
You see people who were dead coming alive, getting out of the coffins (from whence come all the confinement and containment meanings). The recovery from death brings Judgment a whole kingdom of words beginning in ‘re-’ which mean ‘again’ in some way – like recover, resurrect and resurrection of, re-do, remind or reminder, regenerate, regain, repeat, reinstate … and so on forever. Keep in mind that Judgment is one of many cards that translate ‘again.’
.
Recovery from death also brings various concepts that mean ‘a return to the former state or condition,’ and also, by extension, to go back to a place. (More on this later.) Obviously, Judgment is your go-to card for near-death experience.
.
Coming up out of the coffins brings Judgment phrases like: get over it, gets out of, bursts out of, pops up, release, launch, unexpected appearance.
.
Being alive after being dead is a change, so Judgment is one of many cards that translates ‘change.’ Since it means a big announcement as well, these two concepts combine to also mean: an instantaneous change of perspective, as in epiphany, revelation, realization, and ‘getting it’ – in which case you may very well see Hanged Man hanging around because he means these things too, more than Judgment does.
.
The people who are no longer dead but alive also have a whole new life, a new level of experience, are a whole new person, and Judgment is the lead card for conversion, revelation, epiphany, and changing your mind or your ways. This can combine with recovering from something that held you (or whoever) back – or not.
.
Then there’s the horn. It’s the big announcement. It brings three main trunks of meanings to Judgment. First, Judgment is a member in very good standing of the large speak/tell/say Tarot tribe. Today Judgment translates: people saying, they tell you, they say, the word, calling you, and tell them. In the military, you may see Judgment saying the ‘Now Hear This.’ And of course, the ‘big announcement’ can be a proposal of marriage or a declaration of love when romance is the subject.
.
The second class of meanings that arise from the horn is ‘alarm.’ The noise wakes the dead, so Judgment is about waking up, about the alarm or loud noise that woke you up. So it means ‘loud.’ This includes ‘alarming,’ anything alarming, anything that immediately gets your attention. Not only the alarm that wakes you up from sleep, but a car horn, fire alarm, siren, etc. These may very well bring Judgment to your spread.
.
The third class of meanings that arise from the horn refers to musical instruments (especially horns, of course). Since we don’t have pictures of other instruments on other cards, Judgment covers all of these when you ask. Especially with Star (who is singing), Judgment will refer to a performance of any sort of music.
.
Judgment is also a new thing, the start of something, the first time. That’s because of the new life, of course. But note that the new life Judgment refers to is the second time around – so Judgment also means the second time, or going back to the old way or the old thing … or the old love interest. These meanings conflict potentially – the first time or the second time.
.
Judgment is also a legal card, which we are not referring to today.
Four of Swords – Meditating on the purpose of his future life as a knight is what the fellow lying upon the stone container of a coffin is doing; he isn’t dead. But Four of Swords can be a support card for death, especially if Eight of Swords (Tarot Verbatim’s™ actual death card), or sometimes the card labeled ‘Death,’ which isn’t a death card, is present. Four of Swords also is a funeral, and means phrases that have ‘death’ or ‘dead’ in them but refer to something else: dead to the world, dead drunk. Four of Swords is also the deceased.
.
Four of Swords is the main card for coma, being bed-ridden, getting a good night’s rest, being a ‘couch potato,’ the dormant phase of anything, and of course meditation. It also means ‘time out’ and detaching or cocooning.
.
Four of Swords is staying in one place, isn’t participating, isn’t doing (whatever the subject is), isn’t doing anything, can’t do anything. ‘Let the world turn without me tonight’ mood. Although he isn’t strictly a negator card, Four of Swords can act as an ‘isn’t’ or a ‘not’ at times.
.
Four of Swords also is staying the same, and things are as they usually are, status quo, what you’re used to (all true of Hierophant too). Sometimes he is just waiting, and sometimes he is serving time.
.
Four of Swords is indifferent, turned off, not interested, isn’t responding (including the medical term ‘unresponsive’) and definitely not excited about it.
.
He meditates in the town cathedral or church, so Four of Swords also belongs to the church theme as well as the meditation theme. It is the main card for vision quest, of course.

LEARN TAROT BY PICTURES..
Eight of Swords and
Four of Swords both refer to death, and to limitations.
Judgment is recovery, right there between them.
Eight of Swords means
can’t, and
Four of Swords can mean that in just the right settings. You can think of
Eight of Swords as being prevented from or unable to, and
Four of Swords as simply
not doing, or
refraining from action by choice.
.
Judgment has a wardrobe of meanings, loosely related. Both ‘
again’ and ‘
say’ belong to
Judgment, which allows our spread variety.
.
Judgment is to
get free, or
get out of, and
Eight of Swords is
jail,
prison, or
being locked into anything (like a contract, for instance).
Judgment is to change, and
Four of Swords is to
remain the same. You can see ‘
can’t
change’ in
Judgment and
Eight of Swords. On the other hand,
Eight of Swords is
fenced in, and
Four of Swords is
not going to participate in that.
.
Judgment is the
big announcement, and
Four of Swords is
waiting for it.
.
The main theme is found in Judgment’s
getting out of the
confinement of
Eight of Swords, or getting free of its
limitations. That story is hampered some by
Four of Swords
not doing anything, or
having nothing to do with the
big change there.

I’m thinking how people change for the better without their participation, even without being able to change. It’s called growing up. The passage of time mysteriously matures us into a new life, new perspective.
