GUIDANCE         One day you wake up different. There’s this new person putting on your shoes and brushing your teeth. You have shed your old shell, your old skin, and are some new creature you may just like. This new perspective is fun, we say here. Spiritual growth proceeds under the surface and breaks through and breaks out into conscious awareness as something of a surprise, often. We are talking about a change in who you are. We liken it to kids growing up.

.

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.

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!

Knight of Swords – Sun – Page of Wands

LEARN TAROT BY OBSERVING

.

………………….……………………     All our cards are guys today. Both Knight of Swords and Sun are high-energy, and both are leaving someplace. Knight of Swords overtly involves change (his main meaning, along with ‘speed’) and Sun is a picture of leaving the restrictions of home behind (prematurely, in his case, of course!). So we have a movin’ on out feel to our spread. Page of Wands is identity, and a young man (also in good physical shape, and good looking), so this change can be happening geographically, internally, or both. Those often occur together, as we all know.

…………………………..      Knight of Swords is one fast-moving son-of-a-gun. He gets out, he gets in, he is a turnaround, a switch, a sudden change … and anything sudden, really. In the picture here, he is about to use that sword: You would not hold it in that position for long. So he is more likely to be chasing than pursuing, but, hey, in real life, the dude does both. In real life, he make contradictions in your sentences because he … literally … goes either way AND changes back and forth. So he can be that good-looking young man now that he has grown up, or he can be having his second childhood … either way. With Knight of Swords, you look around for what he is saying from his companion cards. Knight of Swords also is ‘sending that man on his way.’

…………………………..      Sun is an adventuresome tyke, a reckless liver, a callous bratty rule-breaker. He has snuck out of mama’s house naked to cavort with that wicked pony, that pony who shares his reckless philosophy. But we catch Boy-child in his moment of glory and exhilaration, grandly displaying that banner, hands-free and bareback. He counts as ‘reckless’ in his application, but somehow the consequences, which have not happened at the moment the camera was clicked, are not in his meanings. Instead, we have that freedom, that enjoyment of life, that fun … and applications about child, children, and childhood. This card also comes around to mean leaving the house, as in pulling out of the driveway, even.

…………………………..          Page of Wands is a fine young man, Prince Charming, the handsome dude every girl wants and every mother wants to create. There’s his picture, proud and attractive. However, he stands for traits that apply to female entities as well. (I am mindful that ‘person’ cards can refer to animals and other things as well.) This is the clean-cut straight-arrow stand-up well-spoken and well-dressed guy. This is the perfect salesman. Page of Wands further means to talk, to say, to be the spokesperson, to say what you mean, to speak your mind or speak from the heart. Page of Wands is standing up for what you believe in, declaring clearly who you are and where you stand. (What’s a nice guy like him doing with these other two, anyway?) Page of Wands is one of the identity cards, which means it applies as a pronoun sometimes, and means ‘type of person.’ For example, with Sun, ‘I’m a happy person’ and with Knight of Swords ‘changes who you are.’ Page of Wands also means ‘name’ and ‘in the name of’ so that Page of Wands and Knight of Swords can be a change of name, for instance.

……….…………       Knight of Swords and Sun     Knight of Swords and Sun combine a change and suddenly with a kid, with getting out or leaving, with fun, with freedom, and with enjoying life. These two cards in Tarot Verbatim™ represent things like a change that makes you feel good, getting over childhood, getting over something (I called it ‘a hump’) and feeling good about that. They say life is fun again (because Knight of Swords means ‘again’ as part of its ‘return’ or ‘coming back’ category of meanings). Sun means vacation or time off (via his leaving the restrictions of the house, getting out of it) and Knight of Swords is a change, so you come back from vacation a different person. Sun is a fling too, so a fling changes you. (Add Page of Wands, and it changes who you are). Knight of Swords is a change and movin’ on, and Sun is being a child, so ‘You’re not a kid anymore.’ Sun is a brat too (obviously!) or a callous playboy type, so the cute guy (Page of Wands) leaves you to have his fun not in your house – which strings out three of Sun’s meanings (leaves, fun, not in your house). Also, he went away (Knight of Swords) a brat (Sun). x..

……….………….     Knight of Swords and Page of Wands     Knight of Swords and Page of Wands combine fast and talking to say fast-talking, which becomes ‘blurt,’ and which would often be ‘fast-talking fellow’ because Page of Wands is usually a well-spoken young man. Knight of Swords and Page of Wands combine that comes back or leaves (Knight of Swords) with ‘the cute guy, or the fine young man or identity to say ‘come back a fine young man,’ or ‘the cute guy leaves.’ Knight of Swords is change, and Page of Wands is identity, so: ‘ a change in identity – a new you’ The identity can be the name, so then we have a change of name. Since Knight of Swords means ‘suddenly,’ we have sentences like: Suddenly he is a fine young man. Page of Wands’ identity meaning makes phrases like: I’m a new person; I’m a changed person; I’m a different person; and ‘changes who I am.’ Knight of Swords’ leaving category of meanings combined with the cute young fella that Page of Wands can be says things like: The cute guy leaves you. Since Knight of Swords can be running away, we also have: That cute fella runs away. (Be aware he could also be chasing you … or switching back and forth.) x..

………..……………     Sun and Page of Wands     Sun and Page of Wands both are young, both are male, both are cute or attractive. We have a fun-loving (Sun) handsome fellow (Page of Wands), a playboy. Since Sun is the reckless brat, we can have a callous playboy, the ‘I just wanna have fun’ monster. But we also contrast the brat the fine young man used to be. Page of Wands is talk, and Sun is childhood, so ‘talk about your childhood.’ Since Sun is the kid, and Page of Wands the young man, we have the kid growing up. The young man (Page of Wands) leaving home (Sun) is Page of Wands going off to college, say.

Sun and Page of Wands, relating to Page of Wands identity category of meanings (especially with the influence of their other card companion) mean personal development things like ‘I feel good about myself,’ and ‘I’m a happy person’ and ‘a breakthrough in who you are’ and ‘delighted with my identity.’ We speak of getting out from under restrictions (Sun) and being that fine young person (Page of Wands). x..

.

.

The satisfaction, the good feeling, of expanded awareness that sneaks up on us and pops up so that we notice it on some particular day. Sometimes it’s the passing of time (Maturity is a four-letter word for this.) and sometimes it’s something we are seeking and finding. Another dimension to our vision has sprouted within us like a gift, and we are bigger than we were. While this is a natural progression, it doesn’t feel natural; it feels special.

LEARN TAROT BY PICTURES

.

Knight of Swords     …….. Knight of Swords is one of those changeable guys who is always in a rush, dashing here and there, so he means: change, sudden, sudden change, switching from one to the other, chasing, pursuing, fleeing, running away, energetic. You take two cards that mean different things, add him to their mix, and (most times) your spread can mean A becoming B, B becoming A, or switching back and forth. So the main thing to count at a glance with this fellow in your spread is the hurry and the energy. Look to his environment for the rest of his action or direction. You know people like him, don’t you? The picture shows the dashing forth.

.

Sun …………Sun just wants to get free of the rules and have him some fun. He is about child or children or childish, childhood or boyhood, enjoyment of life, relief of getting out from under something that held (you) back, free and freedom, vacation or party time, playboy, leaving the house, boyish charm, reckless disregard, a fling, uninhibited and impulsive actions or that type of person. (King of Wands appears with him often to bring out the ‘uninhibited and impulsive’ interpretation.)

.

Page of Wands    ………….      Page of Wands is the respectable one here. His main meanings are the respectable person we all like; to speak, talk, say or tell; to be a particular type of person – identity; to stand up for what (you) believe or are. His stereotype is the good-looking Prince Charming type young man. He is the spokesperson – he is public relations. He can be vain and too well-dressed sometimes (foppish). This card in Tarot Verbatim™ can mean ‘name’ and can simply be a pronoun, usually he, myself and himself.
