Tarot Readings for You for October 11, 2013 Friday(c)

Guidance      In this uneasy situation, it seems to be up to a woman to finesse a settlement that all sides agree to. Everyone in the meeting is worried and wonders whether she has a solution. (I hear the Beatles singing ‘We can work it out.’) Are we really going to live up to our end of the agreement? You are called upon to be a diplomat.  And in a personal relationship, she just takes the lead because he is so uneasy and doesn’t know why.

 

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 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 commenters here would love for you to join in (the very last thing, at the bottom).

Tarot Readings: Her Influence in Our Relationship (Strength and Three of Pentacles)

Shall you wait or shall you be proactive in the relationship?

 

He is nervous when she somehow gets him to do his part.

 

What kind of a relationship is he in, that she has this affect on him?

 

He suspects she has undue influence on him that he is agreeing to defensively.

 

Why is our relationship so strained that she takes the lead?

 

Can she handle an affair like this? – she is uneasy about it.

 

She does not seem to be as pushy as he feels she is in their affair.

 

How can she handle the pressure of this triangle?

 

She is uneasy because she may be involved in a bisexual relationship.

 

She somehow gets him to do any darn thing she wants him to as if it were his fair share.

 

 

Tarot Reading: Pressured to Deal with This (Nine of Wands and Three of Pentacles)

Concerned about what kind of a deal we are doing here:  Do we have a grip on things?

 

The three of them are up to something again, and you are not about to let them get away with whatever it is.

 

It’s embarrassing the way she can get us together and pressure us to agree.

 

Once we figure out how to make a profit, we have things under control.

 

She is under pressure to find a way that is fair to each of us, and we have no idea what that might be.

How can I handle my nerves at these meetings?

 

She is under pressure to chair the meetings somehow.

 

She is the one who knows this kind of transaction; it is strange territory to him.

 

Why won’t she let us come to our own agreement instead of asserting herself like that?

 

She is the one who handles that so well, so why are we involved?

 

How come we all have to be involved in working this out when she is the one who knows what to do?

 

 

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.

*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.

 

Page of Cups

Nine of Wands – Strength – Three of Pentacles

 

LEARN TAROT BY OBSERVING

.

Nine of Wands is uneasy about what may happen next; Page of Cups is uncertain and feels awkward. Both Nine of Wands and Page of Cups are feeling inadequate to their situations.

 

Nine of Wands is under pressure, apprehensive of another attack. Strength is preventing an attack by a would-be aggressor.

 

Strength is the solution to a problem or obstacle; Three of Pentacles is settling up an issue by coming to agreement. Both are about fixing a difficulty. Three of Pentacles is about coming to agreement, and Strength is someone who exerts influence toward resolution of a difficulty. So we see a picture of a woman taking assertive charge at a meeting.

 

Nine of Wands is apprehensive (nervous, uneasy, feeling pressured, things are scary around here); Page of Cups is uncertain and feeling out of his element and awkward. These two are guy cards. Strength is using influence to make the situation the way it should be. It is a girl card. This is a picture of a woman firmly and diplomatically taking charge where the others are anxious and uncertain. Three of Pentacles makes that a business meeting. And since Three of Pentacles is also relationship, we have the woman in a romance taking the lead where the fellow is nervous or insecure.

 

It seems to be up to a woman to finesse an agreement acceptable to the parties. That is our main message for today.

.

LEARN TAROT BY PICTURES

.

Nine of Wands You have a feeling “it’s out there and it’s coming to get me” – acold dread something may happen like that again. Here’s a soldier, wounded from a previous assault, still standing his ground, defending his position, expecting the onslaught. He is afraid next time he won’t fend them off. He is under pressure to do something that makes him very uneasy.

 

 

Strength can handle this.  She knows just how to finesse the situation, to make it purr when it has potential to roar.  She stands for a similar concept that we explained for World just past. Being spiritually adept helps a person in dicey situations.  She is holding the mouth that wants to roar, petting the lion who came to attack her.  He has fallen under her charm, her strength of character.

 

 

Three of Pentacles shows a real estate closing of sorts:  The architect who built the place is finally about to collect his last big draw, and this is the final inspection by the owners.  Three people are often involved in this meeting, especially if it is business.  This is one of the reliable cards, anchor cards, because it so frequently says ‘relationship’ or ‘deal.’ Three of Pentacles is working out an agreement that is fair to all concerned in a face-to-face meeting. It is each party actually performing that fair share too. It also talks about a contract, negotiation, and legal settlement or legal proceeding.

 

 

Page of Cups Feeling like a misfit, are you? – out of place, awkward, dressed inappropriately for this occasion? Page of Cups is feeling uncomfortable in a strange place or uncertain situation. “I don’t get it – huh?” Duh. Somebody is a weirdo. This idea is depicted by a fellow dressed in women’s clothes who carries a fish around in a big cup.

Our Daily Spread for January 22, 2012 Sunday©

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.
