GUIDANCE Working on a new me, I am. With steady effort, a piece at a time, I change. I can change from who I am, – appearance-wise, personality-wise, and even soul-wise – to who I want to be, and that change brings me better things to do, along with being a better self. One epiphany after another makes me who I am as I change my image over and over. I am young again, over and over.

GET A SINGLE CARD’S MEANINGS: TYPE ITS NAME AND ‘TAROT VERBATIM’ INTO GOOGLE
.
Judgment – Judgment is one of those cards that bridge the physical and the spiritual realms. In its setting here, it applies to physical reality. Judgment is about change, equally applying to the old, to the new, and to the change itself. Judgment is all about change … obviously!
.
Judgment also applies to going back to the way it was, to reverting. (They used to be alive, and are again.) When Judgment refers to going back to, there are many many words it uses besides the very common ‘again.’ Words that begin in ‘re’ abound. Today it’s: renewal, repeating, recovery, re-do. Another very common phrasing for going back to is just those words, and ‘getting back to.’ Here are today’s: get back with; got back; getting back; bring back to life; old (job) calls you back.
.
The angel is making a big announcement with his big horn. This part of Judgment’s story brings words like: discovery, epiphany, surprise, loud enough to wake the dead – and also publicity, advertising, press release, news. The ‘discovery’ part of Judgment’s meaning tree includes recognizing and realizing, but other cards usually appear for this, not Judgment.
Eight of Pentacles – Eight of Pentacles is one of those old reliables, one of the anchor cards that you learn to recognize and apply very early in your Tarot practice. Like Magician, it concentrates on doing and making, especially when the story is about an individual.
.
By far the main meanings of Eight of Pentacles are three: work and job related phrases; repeated action, or the same thing again; keeping at it, being consistent and persistent. And that’s it. He is a carpenter at his work bench, which makes the work meanings. He is doing the same thing and making the same thing over and over, which creates that set of phrases – and there are a few of them. And a carpenter keeps at it, which you know if you have ever been around a professional one hammering away. And of course, he is making some things.
Page of Wands – As a page from feudal days, Page of Wands is the young man who intends to please others as he is starting out in life, so he is associated with a good personality, with youth, with being a good person, and even with looking his best and being well-dressed. So Page of Wands is all about identity. This makes him all kinds of pronouns, and all kinds of types-of-people phrases. And of course, Page of Wands appears for being good-looking, for appearance itself, for image itself.
.
Today’s phrases for identity are: me, himself, until you are yourself, who I am I am, I am myself, who I really am, I’m a (different) person when – and also these about image: her name, her image, I stand for, as the good guy.
.
The other primary application of Page of Wands is talk, telling, and being a spokesperson making an announcement. So today we have: notice; you are told about; a message. And you have: the way I talk; told to; talking is what I; talking; he says he; saying; what people are saying – and, of course, ‘talks.’
.
The words for appearance that we see here today are: my appearance; that good-looking man; good-looking fellow; cute fellow; my good looks.
.
Page of Wands says ‘physical’ and ‘body’ too. He can say ‘in good shape’ as well as looking good and being in good shape. In medical questions, Page of Wands will appear for the body itself.

At a glance, the strongest statement you see with these three cards is a new person at work, or being the new person at work, or having a new job you are proud of. A lot of work sentences here, and we also have a good-looking fellow suddenly appearing; we have saying (Either Judgment or Page of Wands) the same things over again; we have changing his/her image, or changing appearance, or changing the way you talk. Those are the leading translations that occur right way – to me at least.
.
Both Judgment and Eight of Pentacles mean ‘again.’ Judgment more means doing it again just another time, and Eight of Pentacles means doing it over and over … so you can say ‘over and over again’ with them.
.
Both Judgment and Page of Wands mean ‘tell’ or any similar word. When you have two cards that strongly mean the same word or phrase in a three-card spread, you tend to have sentences with similar words, and phrases like ‘report what people are saying.’
.
We also have Judgment meaning ‘come back’ and Page of Wands being a Prince Charming type, so Prince Charming comes back again, or comes back and talks to you – because of course Page of Wands is Prince Charming and is talk too.
.
Eight of Pentacles is working on something (anything, really), and Page of Wands is known for being concerned with looks, so ‘working on my appearance.’ Page of Wands can be a foppish dude – antique language. Today we say ‘metrosexual,’ I think.
.
Once again, our spread has two cards that mean the same thing on the ends of the spread, and an unrelated one in the center. (I don’t do this on purpose.)

.
Nine of Wands – The pressure of looking over his shoulder for the next attack, still on duty wounded after having survived the earlier one – still defending the position: That’s our Nine of Wands border guard man. The feeling of being pinned down by some threat that consumes your attention: That is Nine of Wands’ emotional tone quite often in your spreads.
.
Nine of Wands applies whether the battle is wise or not, whether the battle is real or not, whether the battle is physical or not. Think the feeling of being pinned down and under potential fire; it’s a common feeling unless you live on a planet I have not visited yet. Nine of Wands is the guts to hang in there, and is also simply something you are afraid of, or that you have to live with that produces anxieties. Yes, it can just be a headache! Yes, it can just describe a defensive person or a defensive feeling.
.
Here are today’s words for the just-stress category of Nine of Wands words: stress; nervous about; ill at ease about; you live with [i.e. put up with]; things you worry about; what makes people uncomfortable; what you are worried about; being anxious.
.
And here are today’s words for the ‘hanging in there’: wait around; what you are going through; when something’s up; someone who is in a tight spot; the ordeal.
.
Nine of Wands is the card for scary, for fear, for afraid, for what you are afraid of.
.
Nine of Wands is of course all about defending one’s turf or one’s position. Here are the words in today’s sentences for that: feel defensive about; the guard; have the guts to hang in there; take a stand here; on my watch; defend that position; you held out; this is a battle.
Eight of Cups – You have to know the story. See the twin moon phases? – that’s about timing, often a month. That’s the end and the beginning, the stop and/or the start: one phase ending and another beginning, like moon phases. The story is that the river and the mountain are in the way of the pilgrim’s path (Pilgrims wore red to indicate they are on that mission, so people would accommodate them.) so the pilgrim goes out of his way, turns off his path. There’s an assumption, a tradition to this card, that Pilgrim will resume course at first opportunity. Therefore, Eight of Cups means a departure or interruption of (whatever), and means ‘avoid’ (the mountain and river) and ‘go out of your way’ but it also can be a story about the resumption of the voyage.
.
Eight of Cups is dropping out, not doing, ducking out, going A. W. O. L., not showing up, running off the road, not anymore, quit, no longer. These things grow directly out of the illustration of an unexpected departure. Eight of Cups is running off the road too. (Watch for literal road situations in the cards that show a road or mean travel.)
.
Unexpected and premature events, events that did not happen or were disrupted, belong to Eight of Cups which expends its categories somewhat to include these: running off the road, not showing up, ends prematurely, doesn’t do (‘doesn’t fight’ today), is dismissed, won’t happen, not to, ‘it will blow over,’ escape, avoid.
.
The ‘unexpected’ part of Eight of Cups also includes things that do happen unexpectedly, such as, today, ‘prompts us onto’ and ‘appears out of nowhere.’
.
Hermit – Knowing who he is and what he is doing is imperative in order to use the far-flung applications of Hermit in your spreads. The surrounding cards have more effect on Hermit than on most other cards. His story is about this wise old man going to help people who are traveling on a mountain road in winter, offering them an overnight in his warm monastery (because he is a service monk) and some spiritual wisdom and guidance. So Hermit is on the road, is on the path.
.
Hermit knows, and his slant on ‘knowing,’ which is a huge Rider Waite/Tarot Verbatim category of meanings, is wisdom, is realistic, is truth and facts, is objective and analytical.
.
Taking a good look; the view in your headlights; looking for your car keys: All of these are in the ‘looking’ classification of Hermit’s meanings. Since Hermit is out looking, Hermit is all about searching, whether it be physical search (including organized search parties) or spiritual search (seeking). Add this search with the facts, the objective and analytical approach – all of which belong to Hermit – and you get investigation. Hermit is the main card for investigator, investigations, and investigating (anything).
.
The fact that Hermit is an old man brings themes of being old or older, being mature, and even being calm. Hermit is associated with a calm person, and with calming other people, being of comfort to them. Hermit appears as the friend who helps, and as the take-care supportive person (counterpart to Queen of Pentacles in that sense).
.
So many other meanings to this kind old man in the mountain. Here are some mentioned only once in today’s spreads: night time; doing without sex; a friend; and treatment. Hermit’s clothes designate him as a doctor back in the Middle Ages.

Like I keep saying, if the cards in your spread have unrelated meanings, you have stories. And I always have the feeling, no mater how many, and how diverse, my sentences are for these posts, that there are a lot of others I did not think of. Diana, my assistant who has become an overnight Tarot Verbatim guru, proved this suspicion correct when I mentioned the cards I was working on. She blurted out at least eight sentences entirely different from those I had captured, and one variation. She is a not-too-long avid student of Tarot Verbatim™. Could you be Diane in a few months? She organized the text for Tarot Email Training, so she does have that benefit. And she has her own astrology-based Tarot, which enriches her expertise.
.
Nine of Wands is hanging in there guarding his post. Eight of Cups quit without notice and walked off. Hermit is coming to help as a friend. So we have coming, going, and staying. We have abandoning position, guarding position, and examining or analyzing position. We have being threatened, escaping, and being comforted by a friend. We have knowing the way out of a tight spot, and we have the wisdom to avoid getting trapped there. We have the guts to hang in there and the wisdom not to.
.
Here are the sentences Diana let loose with, nonstop, to my amazement:
Watching for the next attack, to curtail it.
Stop looking over my shoulder and start looking at the facts
Not under pressure about you anymore – I’m on my own.
Lived through the attack, gained wisdom, and onto the next
Gave up being anxious and looking for something to make sense.
Panic attack aborted by a good doctor’s help.
No longer afraid of being the wise old man.
Go to the doctor immediately for a head injury.
Got around to going to the doctor for headaches.

Nine of Wands is hanging in there guarding his post. Eight of Cups quit without notice and walked off. Hermit is coming to help as a friend. So we have coming, going, and staying. We have abandoning position, guarding position, and examining or analyzing position. We have being threatened, escaping, and being comforted by a friend. We have knowing the way out of a tight spot, and we have the wisdom to avoid getting trapped there. We have the guts to hang in there and the wisdom not to.
.
Here are the sentences Diana let loose with, nonstop, to my amazement:
Watching for the next attack, to curtail it.
Stop looking over my shoulder and start looking at the facts
Not under pressure about you anymore – I’m on my own.
Lived through the attack, gained wisdom, and onto the next
Gave up being anxious and looking for something to make sense.
Panic attack aborted by a good doctor’s help
No longer afraid of being the wise old man.
Go to the doctor immediately for a head injury.
Got around to going to the doctor for headaches.
…………..…………. …………………….
.

.
..…..………..
Not under pressure about your cause anymore – I’m on my own. I was watching for the next attack, to curtail it, but now I have stopped looking over my shoulder and started looking at the facts. I lived through one attack, gained wisdom there, and am onto another direction entirely. A good doctor, a wise man and a friend, aborted my panic attack when I went to him for headaches with your name on them.

Tarot Verbatim
Guidance Are we living in an unsafe place, and are we dealing with mounting pressures that intimidate us? Today we sing ‘Fifty Ways to Leave’ about the battles we were conscripted or recruited for. Quit counting your fears, we say, because they can’t all happen anyway. On the other hand: That ain’t happening on my watch. Not fighting on all the fronts gives you the focus to fight the battle that is important to you. On the other hand, “The list of things I haven’t got around to is haunting me.” That list gives us the same feelings the conflicts do.
.
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 commenter here would love for you to join in (the very last thing, at the bottom).

Tarot Readings: Scary Things (Eight of Wands and Nine of Wands)
Quit telling yourself the ordeal you survived is lurking out there.
One by one the things I feared do not happen.
There’s a whole lot of things I don’t worry about anymore.
When the going gets tough, I move on.
Telling me the same thing over and over doesn’t intimidate me anymore.
One change after another in quick succession makes me uneasy.
I am the one who holds my ground while y’all chicken out.
When I say the mantra over and over, I am not anxious.
One after another, they quit under pressure.
Quit counting your fears.
To all my fears: Dismissed!
…………………………………………
Tarot Readings: Things that Don’t Happen (Eight of Wands and Eight of Cups)
It’s the things that don’t happen that I worry about.
You are waiting but he doesn’t talk to you.
Quit listening to the news: It only makes you nervous.
In a hurry to leave an unsafe place.
He feels so defensive he doesn’t even talk to you anymore.
I no longer defend myself when I am accused.
Avoid talking to people about things that make them uncomfortable.
I used to defend my position on everything.
The list of things I haven’t got around to is haunting me.
I have to live with you not showing up time and time again.
I avoid talk of what we have to watch out for.
That ain’t happenin’ on my watch if I do say so myself.
…………………………………………
Tarot Readings: Not Hanging Around (Nine of Wands and Eight of Cups)
I hang in there until I am told I’m dismissed.
All the border guards are off duty.
Don’t wait around – get out of there.
One detour after another gets on your nerves
Not able to get out quickly – I’m stuck here.
…………………………………………
Tarot Readings: The Words Escape (Eight of Wands and Eight of Cups)
Not speaking that language is a handicap.
Words escape me when I’m under pressure.
It’s embarrassing to stutter.
.
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 THREE 2-CARD COMBINATIONS is 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.

LEARN TAROT BY OBSERVING
……………..………….. Nine of Wands is scary things;
………..…….……….. Eight of Wands is a whole lot of them;
…………….………… Eight of Cups is they don’t really happen.
You could also say
…………….………… Quit (Eight of Cups)
………..…….……….. talking about (Eight of Wands)
……………..………….. your fears (Nine of Wands).
You could also say
…………….………… No longer (Eight of Cups)
……………..………….. be intimidated by (Nine of Wands)
………..…….……….. one (damn) thing after another … any or all of it (Eight of Wands).
……………..………….. In the center of today’s story is Nine of Wands, the injured border guard who dreads the next battle: fear, anxiety, hanging in there, holding your ground, defending your position, something lurking out there.
………..…….……….. To the left is more and more, one after another, all, increasing, talk and quickly: Eight of Wands.
…………….………… To the right is Eight of Cups getting outta there, cutting it short, premature ending, walking away, things that don’t happen or are over with before they begin, not showing up, not getting around to it. Eight of Cups is when the team who does show up on the field wins because the other team doesn’t show up: default.
You could say
……………..………….. hang in there (Nine of Wands)
………..…….……….. until everything (Eight of Wands)
…………….………… is over (Eight of Cups).
Or you could even say
………..…….……….. Talk yourself (Eight of Wands)
…………….………… out of (Eight of Cups)
……………..………….. hanging in there (Nine of Wands).
And now a bit of existential poetry:
………..…….……….. All the (Eight of Wands)
………..…….……….. border guards (Nine of Wands)
…………….………… go AWOL or walk off the job (Eight of Cups).
Can you, now, supply the appropriate Rider-Waite cards to “I quit defending all my positions”?
.
.
.
The gist of our many one-sentence readings today is to choose your battles because you don’t have to fight them all, or any of them. In the same breath, we subtly suggest going over that ‘things to do’ list and cull the less important ones.

Eight of Wands………. Sticks flying in the wind here suggest one thing after another, quickly, a list, and ‘any and all of the above.’ Eight of Wands also is about talk, text, documents – any kind of communication at all. Yes, it has nothing to do with the illustration: It just is. The lines that the sticks make suggest the lines on a paper … sort of.
.
Nine of Wands …………. The illustration is the injured border guard who dreads the next battle: fear, anxiety, hanging in there, holding your ground, defending your position, something lurking out there. Tension and stress, pressure. He won the earlier battle, with injury.
.
Eight of Cups………. Things that don’t happen, no-shows, quitting, getting out of there, cutting it short, ends before it begins, walking away in the middle of something, dropping out, not getting around to something: Eight of Cups is a detour. The pilgrim encounters terrain that forces him to go around the mountain before resuming his course.
