Four Card Spreads, Guidance, Tarot Verbatim
‘Seek and ye shall find eventually if you are patient’ is today’s mantra. The relationship you want is hard to get to, but you are on the road looking for it. Likewise, you patiently search for what you want, and you will find your price to buy it at. Tired of the people you are with, so you are out looking for what you want. This is yet another example of Tarot’s paralleling relationship with commerce.

Miscellaneous Tarot Readings
We all want to get together, it’s just such a long trip.
Tired of old people; wants to be with peers.
When I got the understanding I sought, it was so hard to deal with it.
Long term (Ten of Wands), I can see (Hermit) I’ve got everything I could want (Nine of Cups) in this relationship or deal (Three of Pentacles). This is the mother message for today.
Three of Pentacles is almost always the star card because it means a deal (business or otherwise, an exchange) and it means a relationship in which each party does his part fairly. It means a meeting of any kind, including a meeting of the minds. These meanings intersect with every card in the deck in at least one way.
Ten of Wands is long term, difficult or hard, eventually, a long time or long term, goes out of his way, in every way, slow, tired or exhaustive, and anything that means ‘a lot of,’ like high maintenance, so much, overwhelming, burdensome, backbreaking, bend over backwards, and so on.
Nine of Cups is called ‘Your wish is granted.’ It mainly means the situation serves your wants or needs, you get what you want, you are pleased, content, satisfied. It is also satiation, as in ‘I ate the whole thing,’ or drank the whole thing. It also embraces wanting to please, and the thing that you want, as in Nine of Cups and Three of Pentacles are the relationship you want, your dream relationship.
Hermit is kind, is seeking or looking for, is looking at, is an understanding counselor type person, is an old (or older) man, is being patient, being supportive.

This is yet another example of Tarot’s paralleling relationship with commerce.
Ten of Wands You know, when you decide you’re going to do it all at once instead of piecemeal? It’s an ordeal, progress is slow, but you get through it somehow and are done. That is Ten of Wands – It is long term, difficult or hard, eventually, a long time or long term, goes out of his way, in every way, slow, tired or exhaustive, and anything that means ‘a lot of,’ like high maintenance, so much, overwhelming, burdensome, backbreaking, bend over backwards, and so on

Hermit A monk in a service order goes out in the cold night to invite travelers to the warmth of the monastery. Hermit is about being kind, is seeking or looking for, is looking at, is an understanding counselor type person, is an old (or older) man, is being patient, being supportive. He is also about a trip, being on the road. Sometimes this card in Tarot Verbatim(TM) refers to being out at night, or simply to nighttime.
Three of Pentacles is almost always the most important card in its spread because it means a deal (business or otherwise, an exchange) and it means a relationship in which each party does his part fairly. It means a meeting of any kind, including a meeting of minds. It applies equally well to any exchange with fellow humans, whether social, romantic, commercial or exchange of ideas.
Four Card Spreads, Guidance, Tarot Readings for You
Guidance Our story today is about how suffering and bad times bring people together. We are also about how relationships that are terrible are still relationships as people are ‘friends through thick and thin.’ People put their heads together over their friend’s distress. People are still friends with messed-up people.
Instructions: 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’ is a summary of what the cards are generally advising visitors to be aware of that day. ‘Tarot Readings’ is the actual word for word messages the cards are conveying. Tarot can come up with a wide variety of sentences (sometimes even completely contradictory sentences!) in a group reading as there is no specific question being asked. So, go ahead and pick the sentences you feel are yours and decide whether to encourage or reject them for yourself.

LEARN TAROT BY OBSERVING
.
Our configuration shows three cards that refer to friends and relationship. In the middle of them is ‘the worst card in the deck,’ Moon. So right off the bat it’s obvious we are talking about friends who get together over a problem.
Both Hermit and Knight of Cups are friends, and both are coming to, and both are offering help. Having two such similar cards indicates emphasis, indicates that that is the focus, that is what is important.
Three of Pentacles is a relationship, a meeting, and working things out or negotiating. It is people getting together on something, putting heads together on something. This card equates business with romantic and social life: It is about exchanges. Business meetings and legal proceedings are part of it.
Moon’s illustration shows the Left Hand Path, the road to hell. It means ‘horrible,’ and ‘worst.’ It means suffering, fear, addiction and sickness, and anything awful. It means ‘lost.’

Three of Pentacles is a relationship, a meeting, and working things out or negotiating. It is people getting together on something, putting heads together on something. This card equates business with romantic and social life: It is about exchanges. Business meetings and legal proceedings are part of it. The illustration shows an architect, blueprint in hand, demonstrating he is worthy of his last draw, the big one.
Moon’s illustration shows the Left Hand Path, the road to hell. It means ‘horrible,’ and ‘worst.’ It means suffering, fear, addiction and sickness, and anything awful. It means ‘lost.’ It means twisted, messed up, wrong. Chaos, miasma, insanity (literal and figurative). The lobster goes on a land journey, coyotes are hanging out with a dog, and those two pillars there are symbols of evil.
Hermit is out on the road at night with his lamp, seeking travelers who could use his help. He is a monk, a healing monk, so he stands for physicians and counselors. He is sincere. He is a true friend. He comes to help.
Knight of Cups is your friend who comes to you to offer help. He is the guy we all like, who can sell us anything, the good guy, our friend. He has a gift for putting his hand out first. Of course, this is the Boyfriend card too. He is about being agreeable, and getting others to agree.
EXPLANATIONS:
Each and every ‘Tarot Reading’ sentence you see is a literal interpretation of the four Rider Waite Tarot cards drawn and pictured for today. (The literal interpretation is from the illustration on each card.) These sentences are put together by only combining the phrases of what each cards says. In other words, there are NO “filler” phrases added just to make full sentences, and no psychic ability or spirit guide is ever involved.
*Without a question* in a group reading to focus the answer, the four Tarot cards can mean quite contradictory things, especially when the Spread has a card that means ‘no,’ ‘never’ or ‘not.’ These negative modifiers can apply to any one of the other cards.
*Without a question* in a group reading, the pronouns (you, him, her, me, us, them, they, etc.) are more flexible. Whenever you see a pronoun in parentheses, please *feel very free* to substitute another pronoun than the one used. I try to drop pronouns when possible, which, if you’ve noticed, can make for awkward phrasing.
Now in an ‘real’ individual reading, the questioner asks a specific question and thereby supplies at least half the information! In an individual situation, the parties are identified and sometimes a time frame is too. Here, in a group reading we cannot do that and so we get a variety of sentences.
Horoscopes are group readings, too. Astrology is based on someone else’s birth data, though, so a ‘solar’ group horoscope never really solidly applies to you! (Astrologers know this!)
Tarot, on the other hand, is perfectly capable of flexibly addressing any group, including all of the visitors that come to this site. It can also address people you might not even know personally, such as all the people at your job who have a say in whether or not you get a raise.
We have been wondering here lately whether the Tarot Verbatim(TM) sentences are more accurate for regular visitors than they are for people who visit this site only once in awhile or for a short time. Would you help us with a comment please, if you have not been a regular visitor? Just let us know if the sentences are relevant to you. So far, people say they do apply.
Return to this site often and you can put all this together and intuitively see yourself how Tarot Verbatim(TM) works. Regular visitors actually learn to read Rider Waite Tarot cards with very little effort.
