Tarot Readings for You for July 4, 2018 Wednesday© Email
Here’s a special Wednesday treat for all of you who do your own Tarot using this site as a library of combined meanings of Tarot cards. The treat is a peek into why your question should include pertinent factors that the cards are not precise about. The big factors are dates, person(s), and time.
Ask ‘who did it’ and you get a description you may not recognize. Ask the motive of who did it, and you will get a description of the scene that usually tells you whodunit. Don’t ask ‘when’ about anything because Tarot is mass-consciousness based ‘out there’ or ‘in there’ somewhere, and isn’t earthbound with clocks and calendars. Instead, you ask ‘Will X happen in Y time?’ as I call it. Not ‘When will he call?’ but ‘Will he call this week?’ That converts the question into a yes-or-no one which Tarot will answer well (or pretty well) giving details that are applicable (cogent).
First thing here is the question I did answer for our client ‘as modified.’ She wants to know ‘what a relationship is going to become,’ not specifying the relationship. Tarot Verbatim is fine (is excellent, really) with that. With no background, however, once the cards talk about marriage and leaving or switching, you as the reader don’t know who’s who. The answer is to be from Client’s perspective, but you don’t know which position Client occupies unless that is in the ‘history.’ And there’s no history required in these cold Email readings. This is why the instructions on the Email Reading tab suggest saying whether love interest is married
I wrote Client, and when she did not respond right away, simply modified the question to include just Dude and her. That is the first set of spreads you see.
Then Client answers with history and perspectives. Tarot did rise to the occasion in its answer.
THEN I include the original set of cards which are confusing to apply if you don’t know the history. Now, you can put these together and see how to handle this – how to phrase a general relationship question which gives no identity of parties or background.
If you subscribe to Tarot Email Training, you know things like this about doing readings and forming questions. Click Here to try that out.
You can also get email readings just like these for a mere $18.75. (Sometimes you wait. These are underpriced because I love doing them, so other parts of the work come first, AND the email readings require peace-and-quiet which isn’t scheduled on my calendar (or yours?).
And by the way, you can also call for a telephone reading and ask that the pertinent cards be identified and explained for you. I do a lot of that.
Question: What will I see this relationship situation actually become in the real world in the next, say, three months?

Emily writes to Client, re the first set of spreads:
This looks like a married man who has ‘the other woman.’ And it looks like that stressed guy you can’t make up his mind but is being affectionate.
If I type up what I have, it may not make sense without me knowing who’s who.
I will wait a while for you to respond, and write these spreads down, and ask the question again limiting the answer to just him and you.
Client writes to Emily re the above Note:
Hi Emily,
Thank you for this.
He is not married, but recently divorced with all sorts of drama with manipulative ex and 2 very manipulative/manipulated kids.
In this sense, even though we are very much in a committed relationship (it’s been almost 2 years, and we met well after his separation but during the final months of divorce litigation), I guess I am the other woman because of all the claws and fangs still gripping him and pulling him in directions his heart does not agree with?
I should add that he has said many time that he will “never get married again”… perhaps he is conflicted about that belief and the prospect of me walking away from him and the drama that he may have to continue to deal with for the next several years…
Emily writes to Client,
This thread of conversation here is a perfect example of the limitations of verbatim Tarot – a perfect example of what should be put in a question to get a focused answer (because the question best contains what the cards are likely to be imprecise about).
I am thinking of publishing it along with the original spread that I replaced when I asked another question limiting the answer to ‘just you and he.’
How do you feel about that? Your name isn’t mentioned, of course.
Client writes to Emily
Sure, go for it. Thanks!
