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.

Four Card Spreads, Our Daily Spread
Advice When you have a bad day or lose your nerve, the situations you finessed before reapply to aggravate and distress you. The Booger-bears are back; how shall I handle them this time? What was that I did before? – it’s hard to remember when I am crying and cannot sleep … At this juncture, seeing the humor in the situation is a great tool for re-conquering and getting a grip on already-dead opposition, whether the opposition is internal, external or all of the above.




Strength
Judgment – Nine of Swords – Page of Cups
What works with Booger-bears (Nine of Swords + Strength)
Tell the clown how bad you will make him feel if he does that again.
Okay, how can I make him as nervous as he made me – his turn!
Must be some way to return the grief to the aggressor?
Don’t you hate it when you rediscover it’s the stupid things that work?
Why do they cry the second time you keep them from getting to you?
Realize the fear is silly to get a grip on it and have yourself a new phase.
Conquered my fears. What next?
Ask ‘What did I do about this scary situation that worked, before?’
Having a bad time now?: Go back to when you were on top of the world.
Figure out something to do to overcome letting this get to me again.
Some nightmares are fixed by realizing how stupid they are.
Recurring fear is best handled by seeing its humorous angle.
Realize what I was afraid of, I ask myself ‘Why didn’t I just do it?’
When you ‘get it’ about what you are afraid of, you can ask yourself “Why don’t I just …?” and it’s done.
Overcoming fear and uncertainty opens a new chapter.
A sense of humor is a great tool to use on revived fears.
What, you worrying? (Page of Cups + Nine of Swords)
What is there to be upset about? I handle that and go on to the next phase.
Are stupid things popping up disturbing sleep? – let’s fix whatever it is.
Note to myself: What are you worried about? – you are on top of things.
How come I can’t upset her? – she puts me down again!
Why should I cry over him when he does things against me? – Next!
Should I be worrying? – I just handle stuff as it comes up, you know
When I realize what I am afraid of, I ask myself ‘Why don’t I just …?’
Back to Worrying Again? (Judgment + Nine of Swords)
Why am I upset again about something I already handled?
Why am I so damn worried when I have already done what it takes to be on top of it?
Enlightenment is questioning your fears to overcome them easily.
Back to worrying about whether I can handle this challenge?
I thought I handled that stress – and here it comes back.
The second time around, will I be keeping (him) in (his) place? – I hate that.
The second time around, how are you going to keep it from aggravating you?
Back to worrying about how you are going to make this idiot behave.
Stressed about how to handle the same thing again?
Worry about feeling awkward when you do again what worked before?
What did I do for stress, before, that worked ? … and do it this time too.
Why do I have to conquer those fears again?
The Booger-bears are back. How shall I handle them this time?
Why do I have the jitters over this now when I finessed it before?
I feel stupid crying … again … when I could be doing something about it.
A strong (gal) like me has the jitters again?
Feel Stupid about Being Upset (Nine of Swords + Page of Cups)
Crying about it is stupid: a reminder to do something effective.
Crying over that fool? – get your mojo back!
I feel stupid crying … again … when I could be doing something about it.
Are stupid things popping up and disturbing sleep? – let’s fix whatever it is.
A strong (gal) like me has the jitters again?

Strength
Judgment – Nine of Swords – Page of Cups
LEARN TAROT BY OBSERVING
Oh, how interesting this panel of Tarot citizens is!
Worry (Nine of Swords) is the star card;
Judgment [Again, return (return to, return it) realization];
Page of Cups (Why? – a question is being asked; feeling stupid, awkward or silly; some idiot);
Strength (overcome it, handle it, to finesse it).
So, why worry, just handle it like you have done before: That is the main message. Lots of frills to it, though. Quite the conversation these four Rider Waite Tarot cards make in Tarot Verbatim ™ today. (Note to Self: Listen up!)
Nine of Swords is being jittery and Page of Cups is uncertain and unsure of itself. That is as close as we come to a theme, unless you want to stretch Strength’s overcoming to Judgment’s new phase because overcoming something usually opens a new chapter.
This spread is very rich in two-card phrases. I am tempted to make a separate entry under Tarot Talks about this spread. (Have not developed Tarot Talks yet: That is what its function is, but am not sure there is a demand for it.) Check over there in case I get the time to!
LEARN TAROT BY THE PICTURES
Judgment Again. Return. Rediscover. Popping up. The second time. A new phase, the next phase. Next! Before, and now. Go back to when … Realizing. Reminder. Note to myself. Seeing the recurring. Realize or ‘get it.’ New chapter. Get your (whatever) back. These are phrases from today.
The phrases arise from the illustration of Judgment Day when the angel brings the dead to life with his trumpet and they pop up out of their boxes. A return to the former (condition), go back to (whatever). You get it. Yes, it’s one of the cards from the Middle Ages to Christianize Tarot so as to avoid prosecution (torture).
Nine of Swords What you see illustrated is what you get. Person is up nights stressed, fearful, crying, worrying, anxious. How bad I feel. I am nervous, overwrought, upset. It’s a scary situation, a bad time, grief and angst pop up unbidden. I hate that, it’s aggravating me, I have the jitters. The Booger-bear is here.
Page of Cups What you see is what you get with this illustration, too: A silly-looking fellow wearing women’s clothes and carrying a fish in a cup.
Today’s phrases for him in Tarot Verbatim ™ and Rider Waite are quite a few. I am going to list most of them in a line because they don’t get along in a string (I tried). The question mark indicates simply making the sentence into question form. This give you the idea of how Page of Cups functions.

Strength has appeared in three of the four recent spreads, including this one! And I don’t even use the same deck. Our messages are about overcoming.
Strength shows a spiritual master (indicated by the white robe, the garland she is wearing, the symbol above her head) preventing an attacker from doing harm – loving her enemy, petting the foe. This Rider Waite Tarot card is not limited to the female gender but often refers to it. It stands for the doing of these overcoming-procedures as well as the person who does them, so a fellow can be the subject as well. She overcomes not only the lion (attacker, opponent) but its very resistance. She deftly handles the problem and solves it without any fuss. She keeps opposition at bay by being able to finesse it. She gets a grip on whatever is in her way and makes it behave to suit her purposes. Her influence is to straighten out a situation (or a person) by her presence.
