Guidance       There’s the real world; there’s our assumptions about it, and about ourselves in it; there’s agendas of other people, and our own agendas, some of which … and not all of which … we are aware of.   So we go out into this real world that we cannot trust, and maybe cannot trust ourselves in.   We mindlessly slip into routines and don’t pick up on something, we accept surface appearances without paying attention, and we don’t catch ourselves at some deceptive maneuver.   Today our message is playing Devil’s Advocate about this sort of thing.

 

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.

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.

Tarot Readings: Playing it Straight (Six of Wands and Hierophant)

My new phase: getting real in a crooked world.

I just let people pretend they are straight.

Due to circumstances beyond my control, I usually am not paying attention.

I just assume they are okay when it appears that way

Something gets us to conform, to go along with the program, without even thinking.

Without even thinking that I’m only pretending, I play it straight.

An honest person’s subconscious works against that.

I go along with the program as if I don’t know any better.

Get free of the games by being factual.

Tricked into committing before I even knew it.

It’s perfectly okay to be open-minded when you can get away with it.

…………………………………………

Tarot Readings: Mindset About My Own Agenda (Six of Wands and Hierophant)

Mindset to just skip over that I’m faking it.

Not even thinking about the way things are – not admitting it to myself.

You have some agenda, some bad motive, as soon as you assume you are entitled.

I usually act as if I don’t worry.

I’m used to being considered respectable when I’m up to something.

I fit in, I look like I’m one of them; they do not suspect.

…………………………………………

Tarot Readings: Mindlessly Sucked Into Something (Six of Wands and Fool)

Such a straitlaced guy is tempted to slip up with a flirty little filly.

You think it’s real when you fool yourself.

Mindless routines suck us in.

I assume religious people are backstabbers.

The con artist is so respectable you never know.

 

Now,  Part Two,

Do you want to know a little, or a lot, about how this Tarot Verbatim™ thing works? If so,

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. 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 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.

Six of Wands – Hierophant – Fool

 

LEARN TAROT BY OBSERVING

.

Hierophant is surface appearances, official reality (the acceptable face we, and our organizations, put on, that we all politely pretend to accept (or be considered uncivilized).

Six of Wands is deceit using those surface appearances and the pretenses that go along with them: the pretense with more of an agenda behind it than is tolerated.

Fool is the assumption, being unaware or oblivious. It also means to be free or free-spirited, unfettered and optimistic. It is the unconscious part of us too.

…….…..………………………. Six of Wands and Hierophant Six of Wands and Hierophant are the heart of our message. They say the con artist is so respectable. They say ‘Playing it straight in a crooked world.’ They state the routine, the rituals, suck us in. People pretending to be straight. It’s so real when you are fooling yourself. Here is the clash.

………..………………………… Six of Wands and Fool Six of Wands and Fool picture being oblivious to the corruption, not even thinking that person is out to get you, not admitting you are up to something. Your subconscious works against you, get free of that game, they say.

………..………………………Hierophant and Fool Hierophant and Fool depict our blithe assumption that everything’s all right, and it can’t happen here.

.

.

Our spread is playing Devil’s Advocate with our ordinary reality. It invites us to question our own motives and mistrust our respectability.

Six of Wands.………….. So why is Six of Wands such a complex and mistrustful fella? Well, pictured is the abduction (kidnapping) of King Richard Third by Arabs at the behest of the fella who was next in line for this throne. He was enticed into winning a battle that exposed him to the enemy. England never saw the king again. Appearances are deceiving, and friends are out to get you, and you are tricked into going with the program. Six of Wands, which is about bad inflluences, is a bad influence on its Tarot companions, every time.

 

 

Hierophant …………”A clean nose,” my daddy used to say, “indicates filth higher up.” Here we have the stinking righteousness. Its core meaning is that the surface routines in a culture have a different meaning for the inner circle which is in the know, and the public that supports them. Hierophant means being decent, behaving, conforming, the official story, committing, ordinary, normal and okay. It is in bad company today: Six of Wands is sitting on its ‘assumptions about surface appearances’ nuances.

 

Fool ………….Fool represents insight and the unconscious. Spring, optimism, and youth, too. It expresses the concept that one who lives through his higher self (the subconscious, for example) is free, unfettered, and immune to petty physical realities. It can mean faith as well as assumption and being oblivious. Many of its meanings clash just as ordinary life clashes with spiritual life.
