GUIDANCE Love, trust, power, and things you feel you have to do: What a mix! – and we have questions about the mix. How much power can you, or they, be trusted with?, we ask. Why do I have to be good to these people anyway, and how come I have to have your grandchildren? Can I be assertive and be a good girl too? – or boy? And I guess he is ruled by his kid. Why do I feel that warm fuzzy moment is such a threat? And why are we dominated by our childhood, anyway? But somehow we can clash and still be best friends. Underneath it all is that balance between doing what we want to, and pleasing others.

It explains how these 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 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.

Six of Cups – Seven of Pentacles – Ace of Swords

………………….
…………
………… In the middle we have a big Tarot question mark in Seven of Pentacles, one of the leading ‘Duh’ cards. To his left is Six of Cups – sweet feelings, warm fuzzy home life, children, romance, and trust. To his right is, well, Ace of Swords, the dominant factor and the dominant anything. It adds the ‘must’ to the ‘why’ of Seven of Pentacles. So we are asking questions about love, trust, power, and things we feel we have to do.
………………………….. Six of Cups shows Little Boy giving Little Girl flowers in front of a large dwelling (estate or apartment house). They are both warmly dressed. The style of the artwork on this card is very sentimental, as is Knight of Cups’, and both of those cards are warm fuzzy ones. Six of Cups as several categories: trust, love, children or childhood, giving, sweet home life, romance, and cozy or quaint home – or good neighborhood.
………………………..… Seven of Pentacles has done the work tending his garden, and is wondering whether those cucumbers are going to produce for him. He won’t know until they bloom or not: They are gendered plants. So Seven of Pentacles is wondering, pondering, doing the effort and waiting to see if it pays off, and asking questions. It is one of the cards that puts a question mark on sentences.
..………………………. Ace of Swords is victory or winning, force, must or imperative – orders, and the most important. It’s a threat or a weapon too, but not in today’s Tarot Company. Today it’s power, having to, being assertive or dominant. The meaning is inescapable: A double edged sword, held aloft, crowned, and then the laurel leaves for victory crown the crown.
……….………….
Six of Cups and Seven of Pentacles Six of Cups is romance and love; Seven of Pentacles is doubt and not knowing. So it covers doubting the love, doubting one’s own role in the love, and doubting the lover – as well as having a funny feeling about an encounter. So Six of Cups and Seven of Pentacles make sentences like these:
Why do I feel that warm fuzzy moment is …?
I think I love you.
Romance, huh?
I guess love has ….
How much _ does someone you love have …?
Somehow, that li’l gal ….
Is the person I have a crush on …?
This may be romantic.
I think it’s puppy love.
I guess I feel … give her things.
Six of Cups is trust, and Seven of Cups is wondering and doubting, so together they make sentences like these:
Whom can you trust?
Who’s the person I trust?
How much _ can you be trusted with, anyway?
I doubt I trust anything at all.
Six of Cups is best friends or old friends, as well as a person from the past, and Seven of Pentacles is musing and feeling and wondering, so here are two sentences along those lines:
I feel I … in touch with an old friend.
Somehow we are still best friends.
Six of Cups is being good, is good people or nice people, and Seven of Pentacles is wondering and questioning about that sort of thing today, so they say these things:
So why do I be good to people?
How _ can I be, and still be considered a nice person?
Can I be my sweet self …?
Ever wonder why we are so generous …?
Six of Cups is children, and Seven of Cups is wondering, thinking, and asking questions, often of yourself – especially today. So these two card mean these things in our spread today:
… love your children, he thinks.
Tell me why I have (your) grandchildren.
Why does childhood … anyway?
His kid … huh?
Six of Cups is an old or quaint house, a cottage or a cozy place to live, and the same concept holds true for the home life (warm fuzzy, trusting type home life) with Six of Cups. So Six of Cups and Seven of Pentacles say ‘Looks like an old house.’
Six of Cups is doing a favor, an act of kindness, and Seven of Pentacles speculates, so we have: ‘Is someone about to do you a favor? x..
……….…………
Six of Cups and Ace of Swords Six of Cups and Ace of Swords Six of Cups is warm fuzzy moments and warm fuzzy love, and puppy love (since it means children too, you know), while Ace of Swords means a threat, means ‘in a big way’ or ‘unconditional,’ means ‘has got the best of me,’ means ‘dominate,’ and means ‘the most.’ It also means a clash, must and supposed to. Together, they make sentences like these:
That warm fuzzy moment is such a threat.
I love you in a big way.
Unconditional romance.
Love has got the best of me.
… power someone you love has over you.
That li’l gal has grabbed my attention.
The person I have a crush on is going to dominate me.
The is the most romantic I have ever been.
You’re supposed to love your children.
It must be puppy love.
We can clash and still be best friends.
Ace of Swords means force, so it produces words like ‘I have to’ or ‘I’ve got to.’ ‘Assertive’ is one of its words, and it says ‘power people’ sometimes. (We are not using ‘aggressively’ today.) Ace of Swords is ruling and dominating, of course. Together, they make these sentences today:
I have to be good to people.
I have to have (your) grandchildren.
I’ve got to get in touch with an old friend.
I feel I have to give her things.
How assertive I am, and am still considered a nice person.
Childhood dominates us.
His kid rules him.
We are so generous to powerful people.
We have got to do something about the old house.
Six of Cups is trust and sweetness, and Ace of Swords means power, totally, absolutely, and ‘the most.’ So they make these sentences:
You can be trusted with power.
I totally trust everything.
Trust absolutely.
The person I trust the most.
I can be my sweet self and be influential too.
The little boy is doing the little girl a favor giving her flowers, and Ace of Swords means ‘really big,’ so this sentence also belongs to these two Rider Waite Tarot cards:
Someone is about to do you a really big favor. x..
………..…………
Seven of Pentacles and Ace of Swords Seven of Pentacles and Ace of Swords Ace of Swords says you have to and Seven of Pentacles says ‘Why?’ or I feel or think some way. Together they say ‘Why do I have to?’ and things like this:
You’re supposed to _, he thinks.
Looks like we’ve got to do something ….
So why do I have to …?
Tell me why I have to ….
I feel I’ve got to ….
I feel I have to ….
Ace of Swords’ imperative category of meanings often translates ‘must’ as well as ‘have to,’ so you get ‘it must be.’ Seven of Pentacles says ‘I think’ a lot – so the two of them are saying ‘I think it must be.’
Ace of Swords is a clash or confrontation, and Seven of Pentacles calls things into question, so ‘Somehow we can clash and’ ….
Ace of Swords rules and dominates, and is assertive; Seven of Pentacles is questioning that (Who rules who?’), so together they make:
How assertive can I be?
Why does _ dominate us, anyway?
_ rules him, huh?
Is _ going to dominate me?
Somehow __ has grabbed my attention.
Naturally Ace of Swords is about the power people, power and influence; and Seven of Pentacles’ job is to shine a question mark on that, so here are those sentences:
Can I be influential?
Why are we _ to powerful people?
How much power?
How much power does someone have over you?
Ace of Swords is all one way – totally, absolutely, unconditionally and emphatically; Seven of Pentacles brushes this, too, with his question mark, to say these things:
I doubt I totally _ anything at all.
Whom can you absolutely _?
Unconditional _, huh?
Ace of Swords is the most, the best, the biggest … you know – the Ace! … and Seven of Pentacles questions that, with these sentences:
Who’s the person I _ the most?
I think I _ in a big way.
This may be the most _ I have ever been.
Is someone … a really big …?
Ace of Swords is a threat, and Seven of Pentacles is pensive about that, asking:
Why do I feel __ is such a threat? x..

We ask ourselves questions today, questions like ‘Why do I have to do that?’ and ‘How assertive can I be, and still be a nice person?’ and ‘Why is childhood such a dominant factor?’ Even ‘Why do I have to have your grandchild?’ Here’s a list of us musing about power, trust, love, whether we have to do one thing or another, and old friends. The gist of all the questions is the big question of how much to please yourself as opposed to pleasing others.
.
.
Six of Cups ……….. Six of Cups pictures a cute and kitschy sweet and tender moment that brings up cozy home life, romance, love, friendship, gifting, children and childhood, and a cozy or quaint home in a good neighborhood (safe one): A little boy gives a little girl flowers in front of a residence.
.
Seven of Pentacles …………. Seven of Pentacles is you when you’ve done everything you can, and you just have to wait for the result … wait and wonder. ‘Will I get mine?’ Will the fellow who plowed and weeded and watered that plant his cucumbers from it? So Seven of Pentacles is a ‘Duh’ card in Tarot Verbatim™. It makes your sentence into a question, which is what it has been doing today in just about every one of them. It means doubt, wonder, ponder, and that sort of thing.
.
Ace of Swords …………. Ace of Swords is all one way, no gray zone: Total victory for one side is total defeat for the other, so watch for it to mean defeat sometimes – usually of the other guy, and not the questioner (querant). The double-edged sword held aloft obviously is about force, imperatives or orders, a threat or challenge. The laurel leaves crowning the crown that crowns the sword is obviously about victory. Ace of Swords reads ‘must’ or ‘gotta’ pretty often, and ‘challenge’ belong to Ace of Swords too.
