Guidance Today it’s really about words, about what we say and what is said, how a talk can explain what is confusing, or can make us feel unexpectedly good, or can rattle us when either we have opened our big mouths or are afraid someone else will open theirs and mess us up. The main concept is sharing good feeling with likeminded people or with our girlfriend or boyfriend … uplifting people you know by praising them in unexpected ways.
Instructions:
Are YOU here for the first time? People love this place!
Here’s what’s going on. See the pictures? Those are the four Rider Waite Tarot cards that make today’s messages (group messages) for you (and the people around you).
The site is divided into four sections. The first is a summary, an overview. That’s Guidance (above).
The second is the actual one-sentence group readings, Group Analytical Tarot Readings. If you have come just for your day’s trends, you can go now. You pick out the ones you intuitively relate to, and decide whether to seek or avoid that. People relate to these! See their comments, at the very bottom. We would *love* to hear from you. Don’t be shy!
.Answers don’t have a question (or a questioner) to frame them, so, yes, they can be contradictory – especially when one of the cards means ‘not’ or other negative word. The negative can apply to any of the other cards. And many of the pronouns are flexible. Feel free to substitut
The third section, Learn Tarot by Observation, is the reasoning that makes those four cards say the things you just read in the sentences. It’s what an expert would be thinking.
The last section, Learn Tarot by Pictures, is the individual meanings of each card, based mostly on its picture, which you are looking at. Read this frequently, and you remember what some of the cards mean.

Seven of Cups
Star – Three of Cups – Hanged Man

LEARN TAROT BY OBSERVING
.
At a glance we got ourselves a story .. or two or three. Star is talk (and it includes flirting). Three of Cups is getting together and sharing you life and good times (whether with girl friends or a fellow). Hanged Man in ‘getting it,’ intense feeling, inspiration, and even being turned on. And Seven of Cups is things are out of control and/or don’t make sense.
Both Seven of Cups and Hanged Man are a kind of ‘what the fuck’ feeling and both are about you realizing as you are hit in the face with something. ‘Scrambles his brain,’ it says. But Hanged Man is a new perception of a reality – an enlightenment, even, and it emphasizes intense feeling, and may involve the paranormal(especially telepathy); and Seven of Cups is chaos, confusion, losing control, and realizing you’re gonna crash.
Both Star and Three of Cups are about joy and feeling good, and they are support cards for romance and love. Star is expressing and confessing and feeling good all over like singing in the shower; it is chat and flirting. Three of Cups is getting together and celebrating, sharing the good times and the good feelings. It is a dating card too. These two’s meanings overlap, so sometimes a phrase will refer to both of them.
Today it’s really about words, about what we say and what is said, how a talk can explain what is confusing, or can make us feel unexpectedly good, or can rattle us when either we have opened our big mouth or are afraid someone else will open theirs and mess us up.

LEARN TAROT BY PICTURES

Star Feeling good and talking are Star’s main categories of meanings, and the picture of a nude lady doing a ritual bath also obviously refers to a shapely woman. This is the lead card for saying ‘I love you’ and for confessing feelings (good feelings). Sometimes it is about a performance, singing, a speech or presentation. Most often it brings up words like say or said, talk (as a noun or verb – and any form of the verb), and related words and phrases like praise, babble, conversation or converse, explain, chat, say so, ‘spill your guts,’ and so on. It is such an upbeat card it is also about cheering up, cheerleading, etc.
Three of Cups Today, in the company of Star, Three of Cups ‘girlfriend(s)’ streak is to the fore. (Its business meanings are untouched.) It is a dating card, and the women are together as girl friends, but the card also refers to a fellow sharing his time (or life) with his girlfriend. It’s generally ‘enjoy the company of people.’ The celebration the three girls in the picture share can be a party, and they can be ‘party girls.’ Since Star also means ‘girl’ and ‘happy feeling,’ the two cards together make phrases that belong to both, and thus ‘steal one another’s thunder,’ in a nice way of course.
Hanged Man Remember the word ‘grok’ that Ray Bradbury coined, that mean to really take it in and get it? The way Italians use ‘capeche’ too. Hanged Man is you in the moment of ‘getting it,’ when your subconscious – that has watched and documented occasions of the subject enlightenment – dropkicks it onto front and center stage of your poor physical awareness, and you’re feeling upsidedown with your hair on fire as you catch on. Hanged Man is that moment, and it’s main word is ‘realize’ or ‘realization.’
Hanged Man is also about inspiration (including the Muse’s), sensing, instinct, psychic awareness, telepathy, intense feeling (mostly positive). Understanding, learning, brainstorming, ideas and getting an idea or being struck by an idea are also Hanged Man’s bailiwick. He attracts slang like brains are scrambled and getting in over your head.
Seven of Cups Its odd opaque illustration is instantly transparent when you see in it the two myths of Sorcerer’s Apprentice and Pandora’s Box, both of which involve evil spirits unexpectedly on the loose. Similar to the Hanged Man, there’s a paralyzing ‘what the fuck’ shock to this card, and it’s odd when they appear together in a short spread like we have. Things are out of control in Seven of Cups. A lot of unrelated detritus or debris, a mess, things FUBARed, things that don’t make sense, things falling apart … all kinds of (anything).
So a person is confused, his brain is scrambled, is amazed, is befuddled, is crazy as all kinds of ideas hit the fan and the situation disintegrates. Ridiculous! Anything can happen – bizarre – shattered, messed up.
EXPLANATIONS: SKIP THIS (AND THE TAGS) TO GO TO COMMENTS, BELOW. (Use the down arrow in the lower right on the screen.)
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.
Now in an ‘real’ individual reading, the questioner asks a specific question and thereby supplies at least half the information! In a personal 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 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 want you to 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.
