Tarot Readings for You for March 16-17, 2019

Today we demonstrate how you (yes, you) can read Tarot (at least Rider Waite Tarot in Tarot Verbatim) as a dialog; you and Tarot in a conversation. You can learn to do that piecemeal right here free, or you can organize and speed it up by buying the Tarot Email Training which you will find under the green ‘Get Them Now’ bar. Or you can just enjoy how it’s done here. We have a good true story.

The ‘Shortcut!’ navigation tab above will allow you to purchase Emily’s interpretation of your three-card spread, for less than nine dollars. It is especially for when you are doing your own cards and wonder. (It is not a reading on a question. You enter three cards, the TOPIC, and payment.)

Three examples (three questions) from one person of Email Reading are a study in going ahead and (carefully) answering when the material seems contradictory. They are also an example of why my instructions to Email buyers are that it’s better to say that someone in a love story is married (especially, not to the love interest). In the questions of this reading, I do not know that, so I read in the alternative – meaning, I say it means this, or that, or that. It turns out that it all does make sense to Querant, who explains that it’s all true ….

Then – third question – she asks what conflicted Love Interest is going to do: action in the real world. And this is a demonstration of how … just because someone is in a dither about something … doesn’t rule out their getting on with it decisively.

My question is: What does he feel for me? What will he will do regarding to me in next 3 months?

GET A SINGLE CARD’S MEANINGS: TYPE ITS NAME AND ‘TAROT VERBATIM’ INTO GOOGLE

.

Knight of Swords – The sure things about Knight of Swords are: his hurry, his high energy level, his movement. See him go! Change is a leading meaning for Mr. Knight of Swords.

.

In the illustration, he is pursuing, chasing, running after – hot pursuit, even. That’s because he holds that heavy sword all the way up like that. But in real Tarot life, this Knight of Swords can mean all sorts of directions: He can be running away or fleeing. He commonly ‘returns’ and ‘leaves.’ He goes back and forth, as in commuting or driving by his lady-love’s house. He can be making a U-turn, which can translate ‘turnaround’ of a situation.

.

So how do you determine? – the surrounding cards, and the question you asked. (We don’t have questions or even questioners (querants) here.)

Knight of Swords goes back and forth, which can be about switching – switching anything. He leaves one lady or job or city or apartment for another. He switches sides. He doubles back. He comes back home.

(Frequent translates that DON’T have anything to do with moving on out for Mr. Knight of Swords are: suddenly, change, emergency, immediately, instantly. He is associated with forceful action … strike … and great effort because of this high energy you see in his illustration.

Eight of Cups – A pilgrim’s (the red robe) progress is disrupted by a mountain with a river by its side. So the pilgrim detours, but will resume course. (Note Knight of Swords also may come back or go back or return.) Eight of Cups is about unfinished business since it’s about dropping out in the middle.

.

A detour is an unexpected and abrupt surprise (no GPS back then), and it means you’re off-course. So Eight of Cups is about unexpected interruptions. It means last-minute; it means ‘drop everything’ and drop out. It means ‘Get it over with.’

.

Eight of Cups means to quit, because, yes, he quit going the way he intended. Eight of Cups gets to mean A. W. O. L. or ‘quit without notice’ this way, and gets to mean ‘unfinished’ this way, and gets to mean ‘abandon’ or ‘abort’ this way, as well as saying ‘without notice’ about any old thing. It also means the ‘leave’ part of A. W. O. L, Absent Without Official Leave. Eight of Cups says ‘That’s the end of that.’

.

Eight of Cups is the card for running off the road, missing your turn on the road, as well as for anything being canceled.

.

Watch for Eight of Cups to say ‘not anymore’ in a divided way: The ‘not,’ then the meaning of another card, and then the ‘anymore.’

.

Eight of Cups often means the end of one thing and the phasing in, or the beginning, of another. The sliver moon pasted onto the side of the full moon is how that’s expressed, and you see it elsewhere in Tarot (Moon). The moon in Eight of Cups also contributes ‘in the wee hours’ or ‘in the middle of the night.’

Eight of Pentacles – You are looking at a working man working. He is hammering repeatedly and making one identical item after another. First, Eight of Pentacles is anything at all to do with job, work, labor or profession; with workplace or work site; with workers, staff, or employees. Next is repeated items or actions: one thing at a time, one thing after another, keeping at (anything), consistent, constant, persistent, unremitting, steady.

.

Next is actually hands-on doing anything, or being the one (say, the worker, the doer) who is doing or has done whatever it is. (Magician too is associated with this ‘doing,’ and ‘being the one who does’ concept.)

.

LEARN TAROT BY OBSERVING

… .. ….. … .

.

Only three cards, and two of them are about abrupt change and leaving, and the other one says over and over. So we are about movement … fast movement even … and not about arriving or progress. The times, they are a-changin’, as the bard sang. Eight of Pentacles is all about work, so that puts our story there, in the absence of any other scene. We are about interruptions, disruptions, detours, switches and cancellations. We don’t do it that way, or we do it fast and get it over with.

.

The gist of our messages today is a heads-up about unexpected change that may be temporary but is swift too.

.

Seven of Pentacles – He wonders whether his cucumbers will bear because it’s one of those plants that have gender. That means there has to be a plant of the opposite gender close enough to be visited by the same bee. Seven of Cups is when you don’t know, you doubt, there are questions, and you don’t get it. Duh. He has done the work for the result he desires, and he just has to wait and see.

.

Seven of Pentacles, with its few and well-defined meanings, is an anchor card: You look at it early or first to determine what Tarot is talking about.

There is doubt; there are questions. Considering, pondering, asking. Uncertainty. Makes you wonder. It seems. Maybe things may …. Why …. I think …. Must be some way …. It could be.

Knight of Swords – Knight of Swords is moving fast, is speeding. That, we know. Where he’s going, or whether it’s just one direction – whether some change is underway – is another question. (But there’s no question about that today, with Eight of Cups by Knight of Swords’ side.)

.

Knight of Swords is getting out (So is Eight of Cups), leaving (So is Eight of Cups), is in a rush or hurry (And Eight of Cups means ‘immediately, right now) and changing (So is Eight of Cups).

.

Knight of Swords (and not Eight of Cups) means ‘again,’ and uses the prefix ‘re-‘ for that sometimes (re-do, for instance), often is part of something forcefully underway (blown, for instance).

.

And Knight of Swords often means more than one direction (rush back; to get back to where I was; turn this around; leaving and going back; leave right now … and get back; go either way; back and forth.

.

Knight of Swords means rush, speeding, rushing through or speeding through, hurry up, immediately, quickly, suddenly, sudden change, leave right now, running away, and hot pursuit (not today though).

Eight of Cups – Eight of Cups also means several conflicting things, all neatly contained in its illustration if you know the story of the illustration. So here’s that story. A pilgrim’s (the red robe) progress is disrupted by a mountain with a river by its side. So the pilgrim detours, but will resume course. (Note Knight of Swords also may come back or go back or return.)

.

A detour is an unexpected surprise (no GPS back then), and it means you’re off-course. So Eight of Cups is about unexpected interruptions.

.

Eight of Cups means to quit, because, yes, he quit going the way he intended. Eight of Cups gets to mean A. W. O. L. or ‘quit without notice’ this way, and gets to mean ‘unfinished’ this way, and gets to mean ‘abandon’ or ‘abort’ this way.

.

Eight of Cups is the card for running off the road, missing your turn on the road, and it supports the theme of a road block (Two of Swords being the chief card for that).

.

Watch for Eight of Cups to say ‘not anymore’ in a divided way: The ‘not,’ then the meaning of another card, and then the ‘anymore.’ But Eight of Cups isn’t the only card who can do this. Watch for Eight of Cups also to … sometimes … be a negator to other cards’ motion. I guess that’s because the pilgrim didn’t make it (at least for the present time).

.

Eight of Cups means the end of one thing and the phasing in, or the beginning, of another. The sliver moon pasted onto the side of the full moon is how that’s expressed, and you see it elsewhere in Tarot (Moon). The moon in Eight of Cups also contributes ‘in the wee hours’ or ‘in the middle of the night.’

.

Quit thinking about it and get on with it, we tell ourselves. I think, I change my mind, I go back to square one, I wonder and I ponder. Doing something – anything – is better than being frozen into indecision. If you go in the wrong direction, you can double back. At least you will be in motion, you know?

.

Both Knight of Swords and Eight of Cups are a change of direction, and both mean ‘immediately’ too. Knight of Swords means change in a general way, means to go back or go in the opposite direction, and means a turnaround (which usually happens in a positive way).

.

Eight of Cups is to run off the road, desist, disappear, quit, drop out, and it also suggests getting back on track later when that’s possible – because Eight of Cups is often disrupted by something (mostly temporarily, as I said).

.

We wonder, we change our minds, and then at some point we quit changing our minds and resume motion in whatever direction because things can’t stay up in the air forever.

.

We describe those moments of confusion and befuddlement between the brake and the gas pedal today.

Eight of Cups Knight of Swords, Queen of Cups, Nine of Swords

There are next to no business or romantic themes, so I have not labeled these.

She changes her mind, it wasn’t so awful after all. She is a changed woman, isn’t the sweet nervous lady anymore. She decides to leave her troubling situation in a flash. His worries are over, he meets the woman who understands him and turns his life around. She grieves the man who is gone, and the change that makes in her life. Suddenly he is gone from her life and she is very upset thinking about that. She grieves the unexpected change in her life. Her thinking changed; she isn’t sorry anymore. She changes her mind about him and is the hell outa that aggravatin’ place. She quits dreaming of her prince and gets back to what is troubling her. When her troubles are over, she is a changed woman. Her thinking changes with the exit of the man who upset her. Now that her insomnia is over, she can get on with a different direction in her life. He switches back and forth about leaving her, which gets on her nerves big time. She just quit worrying about it and is on to something else entirely. Mental anguish to her, his comings and goings. She decides not to be upset anymore and changes instantly. She changes her mind and decides not to be upset anymore. No more is she crying all night because her man dashed off. Her sleep being disrupted is a drastic change in her thinking. Well, obviously, the key card is the lady in the middle, the nice girl/good woman, the Queen of Cups who is thinking, and thinking about her man; and obviously someone left and there’s a huge change in her life, what with two cards that mean those things (Knight of Swords and Eight of Cups); and obviously, this is a source of aggravation, trouble and grief (Nine of Swords). However with two cards that mean change, some of the meanings are that she is getting over the grief quickly or that whatever or whoever leaves comes back. These are things an experienced Rider Waite Tarot reader immediately perceives just looking at this simple spread. Advice here is that changing your thinking is changing your life, and/or changing who you are. (By the way, this is a generality that would apply to men equally as women.) Advice is to ‘get over yourself’ and get on with it; to get over your grief and get on with it.

Meanings and Illustrations:

Knight of Swords: To reverse direction – to leave in a hurry and to come in a hurry – is what he is all about, along with just being in a hurry. Speeding, running away, that kind of thing. The illustration skillfully depicts the hurry: Even the clouds are moving fast. Queen of Cups: She is a softie, a dreamer, a romantic and usually simple soul who dreams of and thinks of her man. Water – a symbol of being emotional – surrounds her throne as she contemplates. Nine of Swords: Up nights crying, grief and insomnia, worry and aggravation. The illustration shows someone sitting up in bed, hands holding the head. Eight of Cups: The end of one direction, the beginning of another (similar to the Knight of Swords); to suddenly exit, to drop out. Disrupt. To drop out of ‘life’ and go on a quest. The illustration shows a forced change of direction in the traveler’s path: There is water and the banks of it are 90 degrees.

Puzzling about how the spiritual plane dominates practical (physical plane) affairs

Page of Cups High Priestess, Ace of Swords, Queen of Wands

So, which lady shall it be for him: The bookworm or the one who is actively engaged? She is a stay-at-home wife: Is that an achievement? Why was the bookkeeper made the manager? Why is the quiet woman so bossy now that she is his wife? Two women made a fool of him, didn’t they? How did his wife win without doing anything? She is totally into solitude; it would be ridiculous to be a wife. What kind of wife is she – an absolute lady. How can a woman who runs a household, runs a business, be so very contemplative? It’s one way or the other: to be single or to be a married woman. Her challenge as a wife is whether to be the passive lady. Can he make her his wife, when she is so ladylike? He feels silly. This quiet woman is the total boss of the household affairs. Puzzling about how the spiritual plane dominates practical physical plane affairs. How did she get to be the expert who knows all about running a household? He feels silly challenging mama in her house: She stays there. Why does she have to stay home? Who would have thought such a practical woman would be a spiritual master? He wonders how his wife dominates him when she is so quiet and ladylike. How did he get such a tyrant for a little woman? How can he make this woman be quiet? Once again, the story is obviously about a woman or two. The women contrast, in that the High Priestess is (1) passive, a ‘lady,’ which means staying quietly in the back seat, (2) knows all or is an expert in something probably scholarly and (3) is at home on the spiritual plane, is a spiritual adept. And, in contrast, the Queen of Wands is a hands-on day-to-day manager of mundane activities. Between the two females is the Ace of Swords, which means force, totally one way or the other, a challenge or achievement. Above the two females is the Page of Cups, who means ‘silly,’ ‘Why?’ or any other question form. The advice here contrasts mental activity with mundane activities of managing an enterprise (house or business) and asks whether one can excel at both. It contrasts a woman who is a scholar of some sort (and is her own person, single) with being a wife running a household, and again asks ‘How can it be?’ It also expresses a guy’s wonderment that the little lady he married now runs his affairs (a dude’s primal fear). The spread sort of suggests the contrast between a stay-at-home wife and a working wife, but not quite. “Why must she choose between being a wife and being her own master?” in other words.

Meanings and Illustrations:

High Priestess: The High Priestess has several layers of meanings, but the common one is about being a lady, a quiet woman, about knowing and being passive rather than doing and being active. (She is the opposite of the Magician, who is active without thinking.) With the focus on ‘knowing,’ she is also an expert or master, a scholar. This Rider Waite Tarot card also refers to the spiritual and/or mental plane, so it also means ‘spiritual master,’ which is what the High Priestess is in witchcraft. The illustration of this Rider Waite Tarot card is less obvious than most. The book in her lap, ‘Tora,’ suggests the scholarly theme. The initials, B and J, on the pillars refer to the Kaballah, hence to spirituality or being a spiritual master. The equal-armed cross is also about planes. Lots of other symbols as well, but this is enough. Ace of Swords: Win, challenge, achievement, all one way, to force, must, gotta, the hard way, dominate. The illustration shows the crown of victory atop a sword in hand. Queen of Wands: She is the one who runs the enterprise, be it house or business. ‘She runs a tight ship’ describes her. Very physical, very competent. Very physical-plane as contrasted to the High Priestess, who can be ethereal or ‘out there.’ Page of Cups: Huh? This is one of the ‘duh’ cards. It means ‘silly’ or ‘ridiculous.’ It means an idiot or confused/confusion. He is dressed funny and carries a fish in a cup.

She is a changed woman, isn’t the sweet nervous lady anymore. She decides to leave her troubling situation in a flash. His worries are over, he meets the woman who understands him and turns his life around. She grieves the man who is gone, and the change that makes in her life.
