Guidance A cat-fight, they call it, when women go at one another. Girls don’t fight fair, you know; they can be sneaky and they can be more forceful than guys who think fighting is sport. When the boss – whether it’s the wife and mother, or whether it’s the manager – is faced with defiance or covert trouble-stirring, she must make order out of disorder.

LEARN TAROT BY OBSERVING

We got some ladies in an family fight, or we got workplace rivalry involving females. That is just about the only story here, folks – variations on a theme.
In the middle is Ten of Pentacles, the dysfunctional family or group of people. Trouble stirred, malcontents in the tribe, rivalry and power struggle in the human clan. This is the Rider Waite-Tarot Verbatim(TM) take on Ten of Pentacles. Other decks and other Tarot maestros have a different perspective on Ten of Pentacles. In Rider Waite, look at the picture: It’s a family dispute. And in Tarot Verbatim(TM), we take the picture literally and apply it. So there.
On either side of Ten of Pentacles are two woman, both homebodies: Queen of Wands and High Priestess.
Queen of Wands runs a ‘tight ship’ of a household: She keeps order. She is The Mama … got a flower in one hand and a big stick in the other. Got that alert look you expect from mama. She is of course the wife as well.
High Priestess sits there with a book in her lap. She is well-read, knows all, and is quiet about her expertise. She is in the background, associated with being alone, staying in one place, being single, being ladylike and quiet – passive. These meanings arise from her position as the female principle in Tarot, as Magician is the male principle – esoteric perspectives from the magic department. So she is secretive and behind the scenes, and even behind things that are happening: possibly even an instigator.
And at the head of our Tarot table today sits Ace of Wands, dominance, defiance, dealing strongly with something, assertive action. It often means ‘must,’ ‘have to’ and such terms. It can be a smackdown, since the hand with the club in it is what’s illustrated. Here, in present company, that is more likely than usual.
A cat-fight, they call it, when when go at one another. Girls don’t fight fair, you know; they can be sneaky and they can be more forceful than guys who think fighting is sport. When the boss – whether it’s the wife and mother, or whether it’s the manager – is faced with defiance or covert trouble-stirring, she must make order out of disorder.

EXPLANATIONS: [Use the arrow at lower right to skip this and go to Comments.]
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(TM).
In these group readings, there’s no question (and no Questioner) to limit what the four cards can mean, so they can mean opposite things.
When there is a negative-meaning card (a ‘negator,’ I call them), the readings contradict one another because that card can make any of the other cards in the spread negative. Negator cards mean things like: no, never, not, end, can’t, etc. Never be queasy about the number of ‘bad’ card because it takes two bad cards to say ‘not dead’ and only one to say ‘dead.’
Without a question or a Questioner, pronouns (I, you, he, she, we, they, etc.) are very flexible. I leave out pronouns in writing this as much as possible – awkward to do that sometimes. When I put them in parentheses, feel very free to change them around to suit yourself.
Now in a ‘real’ individual reading, the questioner asks a specific question which provides at least half the information! In an individual’s reading, the parties are identified and sometimes a time frame is too. Here, in a group reading, we cannot do that and so we get more 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 want you to know this!)
Tarot successfully addresses the group of visitors, whoever they are. It provides useful information that applies to their daily lives: They tell you this in the comments, for three years now. Tarot can tell you things about people you don’t know personally – such as whoever on your job has a say in your raise or continued employment there, whether that is one person or many. Visitors report that the information is equally accurate for new visitors as it is for the family of regular visitors.
Do you want to read Rider Waite Tarot, yourself? Start with Learn Tarot by Pictures to get the day’s cards’ individual meanings; then read Learn Tarot by Observation, which gives you the thinking those four cards inspire in a qualified reader. Next, Group Analytical Tarot Cards Reading is the various things those four cards can say (without a question to guide them). Then, Guidance is a summary.
In this way, your intuition allows you to learn to read the cards without much effort if you come often enough. Regular visitors can just put it together.
