Tarot Verbatim
GUIDANCE Tarot is talking about New Year’s. Really. We describe the thoughts, the parties, the resolutions … all of it. It is saying things like ‘Just when I am getting over one, another one comes around,’ and ‘As we leave it all behind, we act silly and make loud noises’ – even ‘Maybe I can put the past behind and start over.’ So Happy New Year to you from Tarot!

Tarot Readings: New Year’s party (Two of Pentacles and Judgment)
As we leave it all behind, we act silly and make loud noises.

Maybe I will go out for New Year’s.

It’s almost over and it’s almost starting up.
This is an ongoing story of getting out of one thing and beginning a fresh one.
Drifting into starting over one more time.
On the way out of the past, here comes another go-round.
Just when I’m getting over one, another one pops up.
Here we are beginning at the end again.
Out with the old and in with the new.

I am making the same announcement again about having a better life from now on.
One big announcement after another about what I’m not going to do anymore.

Leaving it all behind again and starting over again.
…..…..
Tarot Readings: Maybe Put the Past Behind (Six of Swords and Two of Pentacles)
Maybe I can put the past behind and start over.
We are getting over things as we are getting into New Year’s.

Leaving it all behind in the process of a new phase, a new life.
Phasing out of a disappointment and into a recovery.
Putting the dreary parts of the past aside and celebrating a renewal.

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 meanings of the three cards in the pictures in the Tarot Readings. It explains how these cards get together in your mind to make the messages. HERE ARE PHRASES FOR ALL THREE 2-CARD COMBINATIONSis 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.
This is a group reading, with no Questioner and no Question to limit what the cards say, so there’s more variety – even contradictions – than a personal reading would give you. Also, pronouns are flexible: If the sentence feels like it’s yours, and it says ‘he,’ but you’re a ‘she,’ well, it’s yours.
*AND if you write names of any two cards into the Google search bar, it will give you meanings of those!

Six of Swords – Two of Pentacles – Judgment

LEARN TAROT BY OBSERVING
.
………………….…………………… New Year’s and New Year’s party is one of Judgment’s meanings because of the horn and the fact Judgment’s main meaning is a new phase, a new life. Two of Pentacles chimes in with a cycle, going around one more time, dancing, being goofy, and tipsy. Six of Swords is putting the past, the old year in this case, behind. If I had hand-selected three cards to talk about New Year’s, I could not do as well as this.
………………………….. Six of Swords is leaving for a better time, a better place, a better life – putting the past behind and starting over. The illustration shows a mother and child leaving in a shallow open boat like refugees. It is both a melancholy and a hopeful card. ‘Tomorrow is another day.’ The mood New Year’s brings us.
………………………….. Two of Pentacles is about cycles and movement. So it tells of going through the same movements, the same cycle, repeatedly. It is also being goofy and doing silly things, wearing strange clothes – a dunce cap, even. You see a juggler with two balls or plates, dancing as he keeps them going. There’s the math sign for ‘repeated indefinitely’ around the items he juggles.
………………………….. Judgment is about a new phase, a new life, mainly: people alive again up and out of their coffins. It also means to recover, again, a re-do or another go-round (which Two of Pentacles means exactly). Then there’s the horn that wakes the dead – the horn we blow at midnight when the change takes place of a dying year and a live year.
……….………… Six of Swords and Two of Pentacles Six of Swords and Two of Pentacles mean the process (Two of Pentacles) of putting it behind you (Six of Swords). Leaving (Six of Swords) again (Two of Pentacles). Drifting out of (Six of Swords) one more time (Two of Pentacles). Leaving it all behind in the process of …. Avoiding (Six of Swords) another slip-up (Two of Pentacles). It’s almost over – Two of Pentacles’ ‘in the process’ mode combining with Six of Swords’ journey out of a place: There’s no arriving. We are also avoiding (Six of Swords) doing something stupid or silly (Two of Pentacles) again (either Two of Pentacles or Judgment). Maybe (Two of Pentacles) put the past behind (Six of Swords). Phasing out of a disappointment (Six of Swords) and into … (Two of Pentacles). Two of Pentacles is ‘in and out,’ so here we have ‘Out with the old and in with the new.’ Going to avoid (Six of Swords) doing the same thing over again (Two of Pentacles). Maybe (Two of Pentacles) put the past behind (Six of Swords). Leaving it all behind (Six of Swords) again (Two of Pentacles). Dress up and dance (Two of Pentacles) the night away (Six of Swords). x..
……….…………. Six of Swords and Judgment Six of Swords and Judgment are putting the past behind (Six of Swords) for a new life, or for renewal (Judgment), and they also are leaving (Six of Swords) again (Judgment). Both of them mean a better life than in the past. Judgment means both ‘the new life’ and ‘again.’ These describe a New Year’s resolution: Judgment is the big announcement, and Six of Swords is to head away from where you are now. They say ‘not going to do that again’ by Judgment meaning the re-do and Six of Swords meaning leaving that behind, avoiding it. They say beginning (Judgment) at the end (Six of Swords). x..
………..…………… Two of Pentacles and Judgment Two of Pentacles and Judgment both mean ‘again’ and both mean ‘another phase.’ They say ‘keep doing it over and over’ or ‘the same thing over and over again’ because Two of Pentacles is ‘keeping at it’ and Judgment is a re-do. They also say ‘something stupid (Two of Pentacles) again (Judgment). (Six of Swords makes that avoiding doing something stupid again, see?) We did not use ‘I told you that was stupid,’ with Judgment providing ‘I told you.’ x..
Here we have an intense and detailed look at New Year’s, even including a warning not to drink and drive. We have a resolution not to do some dumb things we did last year, and making the same resolution again and again. Just when I’m getting over one, another one pops up, we say. Out of one phase and into another. Tarot is joining you in your thoughts about the day, and saying ‘Happy New Year.’ I say, ‘Happy New Year, Tarot.’

Six of Swords…….. Six of Swords is the times you had to just give up and move on. Six of Swords is starting over after you run out of gas. Being broke and leaving town for a better life. Going on with life after someone dies. Picking up the pieces when husband leaves you with a kid. Better times are ahead because it can’t get any worse. It is one of the cards that represents depression but its meaning is that things are improving, you’re on the mend, you’re getting over it, and the worst is over. A mother and child are huddled together, leaving town as dark falls, with the clothes on their back, being paddled away from there in a crude open boat. Sometimes the import and emphasis of this card is that friend who is helping them leave: A friend helps you out.
.
Two of Pentacles …………. Two of Pentacles You see movements here: back and forth, up and down, round and round, sideways, diagonally and even spinning. You see on and on, continuing. That makes cycle or cycles. You see over and over repeatedly. Two of Pentacles can mean any of these, or combinations of these. It makes odd phrases like ‘every which way’ and ‘any way but loose’ at times. You also see silly and goofy in his clothes, and of course in the dunce cap. He is performing, and he is dancing, so Two of Pentacles can mean these. The ships tossing on the waves behind him suggest ‘unstable’ and ‘instability.’ Two of Pentacles can mean dizziness, and can indicate a person or animal’s way of moving is abnormal, which appears sometimes in medical issues.
.
Judgment …………. Judgment today is all about New Year’s, so many of its meanings are irrelevant here at the moment. Right now, the ones we are using are the fact that Judgment is a new phase, a new life, and means an announcement (resolutions), and the horn that will blow at midnight (hopefully not waking the dead). It shares the ‘again’ meanings with Two of Pentacles, and accounts for ‘pop up,’ ‘renewal,’ ‘fresh one,’ and ‘I am saying’ too.

Tarot Verbatim
Guidance A change of heart, mind, attitude, etc. is a new life. A vision re-frames one’s past reality. Preoccupation with the disappointing past brings us to a change of circumstances for the better if we let the sadness progress in our minds until the vision snaps on like a light bulb. You regret doing the same thing over again until you change. Sometimes she goes back to being the silly blond again.

Judgment
Five of Cups, Two of Pentacles, Queen of Cups
LEARN TAROT BY OBSERVING
.
Two of Pentacles is a cycle, an ongoing phase; Judgment is a change and a new phase or new life. Turning points are what Two of Pentacles and Judgment are about.
.
Five of Cups is about preoccupation with the past in a depressing way, missing someone, mourning someone or something, melancholy, a sense of loss, a loss you don’t get over, regrets, a waste that haunts you, the kind of mood that doesn’t care what is still there for you, you just want what you had … or what you could have had. Five of Cups is the ‘coulda-woulda-shouldas’ in the rosary of our lives.
Queen of Cups links up with Five of Cups along the lines of being preoccupied and gazing at a Cup. She is thinking, figuring something out, and she is famous for having faith in that man she loves, being a naïve believer in something. Naïve faith tends to involve disappointment and recovery; doesn’t it?

Five of Cups will always be preoccupation with the past in a depressing way, missing someone, mourning someone or something, melancholy, a sense of loss, a loss you don’t get over, the kind of mood that doesn’t care what is still there for you, you just want what you had. This is one of the cards a newbie could pull from the deck and know exactly what it means. A black robed figure with a bowed head, gray sky, spilled wine … how many hints do ya need?
Two of Pentacles is getting out of one end of a phase and into the beginning of another, as well as continuing, oscillating in some cycle. It also means a lightheartedness, even silliness. You can see the ships tossed up and down, the juggling going round and round, the ‘eternity’ mathematical symbol. Again, how many hints do ya need?
Queen of Cups is so blond. She dreamily contemplates some artifact, all dressed up in white, with water (emotion) swirling around her seat. This is the true believer of the female persuasion. She loves and admires her man, and she is figuring some things out.
Judgment is the new phase of life, the realization, the big news, the big announcement, the change or shift. People coming out of their coffins to the trumpet of an angel … like I said, how many hints …

Advice is about how a change of heart, mind, attitude, etc. is a new life, how a vision reframes one’s past reality.

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 (in the best way) for you. (Advice is everyone’s favorite part.) Did you come here for your predictions? – You are done now – See you tomorrow. The Question for weekdays is: “Tell the visitors here something useful and meaningful to them. The Question for weekends is stated right on top on those days if there is one. 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! ======================================================================== Judgment Five of Cups, Two of Pentacles, Queen of Cups DAILY MESSAGE TAROT ANALYSIS Tell the visitors here something useful and meaningful to them.
