Our Daily Spread for September 30, 2011 Friday ©

Advice is about family problems,  and embraces both problems within the family and problems the family faces from the outside.  No matter what kind of difficulties they are facing,  she expects their life together to be loving.  She expects him to be sweet to her family-from-hell.  Paying child support to his ex-wife has him in Dutch with his family.  The idea is to be a loving family no matter what the problems are. (At the time of production,  there’s no way to correct the lack of spaces after punctuation.  I am writing around it now!)         ========================================================================= Is this the first time you come here? Well … what to do:

*Go to Daily Message Tarot Analysis below. One or more of those sentences has something to say to you. Pick those out. They are about you and the people around you. They are about today and the days around it. (It is a group message like a horoscope, except Tarot isn’t based on someone else’s birth data, so it can be specific, accurate, detailed and direct. Our experiment here is “How much more accurate is it?”)

*Go to Advice to apply what those sentences say to you.  (Advice is everyone’s favorite part.)  Did you come here for your predictions? –  You are done now –  See you tomorrow.

Without a question to focus the answer,  four cards can mean contradictory things especially when the Spread has a card that negates other cards.  Without a question also the pronouns in a group reading are more flexible,  especially in some of these Rider Waite Tarot spreads.  When a pronoun is in parentheses,  feel very free to substitute.  The question in a ‘real’ individual reading supplies at least half the information!

============================================================= Six of Cups Queen of Swords –  Ten of Pentacles –  Nine of Wands   DAILY MESSAGE TAROT ANALYSIS  Tell the visitors here something useful and meaningful to them.   Family Togetherness Positive Perspective No matter what kind of difficulties they are facing,  she expects their life together to be loving. She makes sure this is a loving family no matter what the problems outside are. His childhood with a strong mama who faced all the challenges –  and he was loved. Mama was a disciplinarian,  so you were a good kid no matter what mischief others were doing. Hey,  we are the crowd that are mellow with one another,  and it’s we who get criticized? They are such good kids because their stern mama scolds them when they make trouble. Has a cozy life in spite of how annoying people around here can be. She has such good kids it makes other families feel they don’t measure up to her.   Family Togetherness Negative Perspective She is angry and he is defensive about the trouble his romance is making. He is so sweet to her and she is so mean to him that he is uneasy around people. He loves cranky bitchy women who nag him and make his life uncomfortable. Being in love and married to a woman who has high standards, you are put on the spot. Family puts her on the defensive about the way she raises her kids. She expects him to be sweet to her family-from-hell;  he is nagged about that. Paying child support to his ex-wife has him in Dutch with his family. Maternal in-laws (mama’s family) have high expectations for the kids and put pressure on them.   Kids are the Problem Perspective That wench accuses your kids of being the troublemakers. You dread complaining,  but the neighbor’s kids are a problem. That is the woman whose kids disrupt the neighborhood.   Miscellaneous The trouble you go through when you have kids! Being sweet to the demanding public can sure get to you! Kids get on her nerves and she is not even happy living with people. Growing up in the old-country culture was a handicap.   ============================================================= Now,  Part Two, Do you want to know a little, or a lot, about how this Tarot Verbatim ™ thing works?  If so,

*Go to Meanings and Illustrations:  Observation of the Spread section below.  This tells about the combined four pictures in the Daily Spread –  the pictures above here.  It explains how these four cards get together to mean things.

*Go to Meanings and Illustrations:  Individual Rider Waite Tarot Cards.  It is what each of the four cards,  by itself,  has to say.  It describes how that illustration makes that card’s meanings in this Spread.

You can put all this together and intuitively see yourself how Tarot Verbatim ™ works.

========================================================================= Six of Cups Queen of Swords –  Ten of Pentacles –  Nine of Wands   MEANINGS AND ILLUSTRATIONS:  OBSERVATION OF THE SPREAD Uh-oh.  No way are we going to be all sweetness and light here!  Three Tarot cards that in Rider Waite mean aggravation,  and one that means romance or children or the past,  Six of Cups.   Queen of Swords is not getting her due and is dissatisfied.  She gets called the bitch –  and you can count on this card to mean that with the right neighboring cards.  She is demanding and has something to confront or complain about.  Yeah,  she is the nag.   Ten of Pentacles is the dysfunctional family situation.  It is the troublesome neighbors.  It is the family problem.  Nine of Wands is being or feeling defensive,  put on the spot or accused.   The closest we come to a theme is that Ten of Pentacles is about family and Six of Cups shows children and includes a loving home relationsip.  You could also say that the dysfunctional family of Ten of Pentacles includes the nagging bitch.   MEANINGS AND ILLUSTRATIONS:  INDIVIDUAL RIDER WAITE TAROT CARDS   Queen of Swords is the strong disciplinarian who lets you know when you let her down.  She is also the confrontational nag,  the bitch,  the complainer (even whiner),  the demanding woman.  Your ex-wife.  Your mother from hell.  She is the Plaintiff or Complainant in a lawsuit.  She lives by a high standard and expects people to do what they said they would.  See her hand out,  and that ‘now would be good’  look on her face?   Ten of Pentacles is one of three family cards.  The other two are positive ones.  This one can mean ‘family’ in a larger sense too:  the culture,  the neighborhood,  the mob,  the political arena.  It is about family problems.  The illustration depicts a typical family quarrel scenario,  with Grandpa on the throne smugly possessing the family dogs and the couple having a  ‘discussion’  that upsets the kid who pulls on mama’s clothes as daddy stares in the other direction while wife talks to him.   Nine of Wands is an uneasy feeling you get when people don’t approve of you and you expect some consequences from the situation.  It is more of a chronic situation usually.  The head wound on the fellow indicates he has already fought this battle and expects to have to again.  So this situation is a headache.   Six of Cups is a hopeful shower over this sorry spectacle that was forming above.  There is sweetness and a good home –  romance and children,  usually good children.  This card turns what could have been a snarly situation into one that has at least some goodwill to it.  Little boy gives sweet little girl flowers in front of home under a blue sky.

Our Daily Spread for Feb. 4, 2011

Rider-Waite Tarot 2-4-11

She has the drive and the uncompromising intimidating attitude to succeed

Queen of Swords Chariot, Nine of Pentacles, Nine of Wands

Re a man’s perspective: *When she is angry, she can live without him so well, which threatens his command of the situation. *She is in charge of her life and she expects him to be in charge too:  This is pressure for him. *He is scared of the bitch; she rules the place he intends to manage himself. *He is a very capable man when he is with her, so she minds her own business regarding that nagging old woman he is in fear of. *He can handle this rich bitch at her most intimidating. *It’s his choice to be in fear of  this hard-hearted lady who doesn’t need anyone. Re a woman’s perspective: He is a success and she is a success but it’s her demands you can live in fear of. When she is angry, she can live without him so well, which threatens his command of the situation. She has everything but is afraid she isn’t getting what she wants:  a successful man. She does just fine with her controlling mama’s scary criticism of her. Mother’s criticism is intimidating but daughter handles it coolly. She has nerves of steel, can handle anything:  She is ‘calm, cool and collected’ under fire. She handles this controlling guy so well that his ex lived in fear of. Re business: *The widow inherited this business; managing it makes her nervous. *Ambitious businesswoman intimidates with her critical attitude. *It’s her business, she is strong enough to run it despite an adverse environment. *She has the drive and the uncompromising intimidating attitude to succeed. Well, we start with the successful woman who runs the show, and the successful man who runs the show, then we have fear, apprehension and intimidation, then the critical woman who is dissatisfied and strong.  What to do with this?  There is an intimidating factor, most likely her criticism, her holding someone up to HER standards.  But whatever this intimidating factor is, both the man and the woman are succeeding, are doing fine, and are in control of the situation. Today I divided the spread into whatever categories it embraces, and putting all the sentences that are, say, about romance, about business, etc. together, to make it easier to digest.  Because I mean for this blog to be something you can rush through when you are busy, and get the gist of.  No fillers!

Meanings and Illustrations:

The first card of today’s spread is the Chariot, a Tarot card that in Rider Waite is mainly a man’s or male card about command of the situation, being in charge, managing a project successfully, being capable, being a success, and about choice and voluntarily taking on a challenge.  Controlling the elements of your situation in order to get where you are going is what it’s all about here – even about being controlling.  Being ambitious, having the drive to run an enterprise or project.  The idea of driving a vehicle is what holds most of these meanings in common. The illustration is a person driving a vehicle, controlling its direction in spite of adversities. The Nine of Pentacles is our second character in the spread.  Whereas the Chariot is the man in charge,  a man who is a success, this is the woman in charge, a woman who is a success, the woman who does beautifully all by herself running an enterprise and living alone, single, minding her own business and not needing nobody.  She is rich, she owns the place and does as she pleases. Her illustration shows a snail, which means ‘in her own good time.’  It shows her with a falcon, an expensive and powerful hobby.  She owns the place, she lives a live of leisure.  She don’t know ya. Nine of Wands, we have met a few times already here.  Being or feeling intimidated or nervous or threatened, in fear.  Something is scary or a person is ‘under fire.’  The environment is adverse, even intimidating. Queen of Swords: This is the strong uncompromising demanding woman who expects much of others and has nerves of steel.  She can be a nagging old bat too, in the continuum of the card.  Stereotype is the nagging ex-wife or mother.  She may be angry.  She complains.  She is a bitch at times.  She is Ray Charles’ “hard-hearted Hannah, the vamp of Savannah.”  She is sometimes a widow who misses the life she would have had and is bitter.  It also stands for a woman whose child has died, and she feels bitter about what could have been. In the illustration, an old or older woman whose hand is out, with a stern unsatisfied – even angry or disapproving – look on her face is what we see. I did a second spread for the  fun of it, mainly to see where the relationship thread was going.

Rider-Waite Tarot 2-4-11b

This relationship is so sweet it scares him into an outburst

Tower Six of Cups, Page of Swords, Page of Wands

He is divorced and afraid of romance. When he is nervous about feeling trusting, he talks about breaking up. He afraid to divorce because of the children. He got mad and had a temper tantrum at the girl he loves. He is afraid to say something that destroys the happy home. Afraid he will be rejected if he confesses his love. Anxious to be the best loving person he can be, and split with his past. Being the sweet guy he has always been makes him nervous about rejection. He was afraid to split up but now he is a happy person in an old-fashioned love relationship. All of these are romantic.  The most influential Rider Wait Tarot card in this spread is the Six of Cups, the ‘home sweet home’ vibe of romance, trust, children, the good old days.  Then we have the anxiety – second card, the Page of Swords – of the sweet guy, the third one, the Page of Wands. We close with one of the divorce cards, one that means rejection, a temper tantrum, an outburst – the Tower.  You can see, in the sentences above, how these meanings play into one another.  He loves her, he is afraid to be so warm and fuzzy, so he talks about breaking up – things like that.  You can put these together several ways, and I invite you to think up some more ways.  Comment here about that, if you would.

Meanings and Illustrations:

Six of Cups: This is THE romance card in the deck.  Little boy gives little girl flowers.  Home sweet home, sweet old-fashioned love, trust and other warm fuzzies. Page of Swords: Nervous, fearful.  You see him looking all around, and nothing is anywhere near him. Page of Wands: Fine fellow, good guy, nice looking, he talks up, he is himself up front. Tower: Being thrown out of the house, in a disaster.  Temper outburst is suggested by the explosion you see in the illustration.  The picture reflects the Tower of Babel.
