Been lagging on my daily draws, but I do a reading for March..
1) Overall theme:
The Tower/Ace of Pentacles
Well, looks like there will be some more shake ups this month. Eek, changes for sure. Although this could be something as simple as personal changes – in that my expectations of myself and others will be shaken up and knocked down a peg. With the Tower/Ace of Pentacles, this is likely saying that there will be some unexpected changes coming my way either from a new opportunity, or creating a new opportunity over the change. Looks like it won’t be a boring month at least 😉
Keywords: Sudden change, release, downfall, revelation
I think the descriptions of the Tower that best fit me currently are:
“Are you too full of pride? Expect a blow to your ego. Are you holding back your anger? Expect the dam to burst. Are you stuck in a rut? Expect a surprise”
It could even be that I’ll go through some sudden change, that will either help me to release some feelings or will reveal something important to me – and this will help me to find or take advantage of a new beginning.
Mice – Storks – Dog
Lily
Looks like there may be some small problems with a friend, or with multiple friends (Mice/Dog). There might be something that needs to be revealed there – that goes back to the Tower popping up before/
With Lily/Storks it looks like there will be some positive changes, or positive new beginnings when it comes to my finding peace/harmony with myself.
The progression of Mice – Storks – Dog, could say that a negative situation from the past (something with more difficult emotions connected to it) will move positively, resulting in feelings of loyalty/friendship taking the place of the feelings of hurt or betrayal. Lily, again, says this likely will have some effect on my overall peace/internal harmony.
So doesn’t look bad overall. Looks like there will be some unexpected changes or challenges that will come up with Storks/Ace would imply that there will be something positive that comes out of them.
2) Energies Leaving my Life:
7 of Cups/4 of Pentacles
I’m happy to see this pair as what’s leaving my life!
The imagery on both of these cards is very complacent – showing figures either looking down and away and off into the distance.. focused on themselves, daydreaming, things out of reach etc instead of focusing on the present. So my feeling with these cards as energy leaving my life this month, would be that I will be feeling less complacent, less bored and less “stuck”. I won’t be holding on to things as much as I may have been recently, I may be less concerned about maintainig the status quo, and be more open to change. So basically – energy of “stagnation” will be leaving my life this month.
Heart – Woman – Heart
Snake
Hmm, odd cards for “energies leaving”. The combo of Snake/Woman could be pointing to me as a woman healing from betrayal and from relationships that might have been false or painful in the past.
With Heart/House, I’m not too sure, maybe these energies will be leaving my house? In the sense that I won’t be holding on to them all the time, in my day to day life type thing?
I’m not sure otherwise. Maybe it could be certain feelings that I’m holding on to in regards to my living/home situation will change?
3) Energies Continuing to Influence my Life
Death/5 of Wands
Hmm looks like I may still be continuing to deal with some challenging changes. Tower combined with this would definitely say that there are going to be come major changes coming my way, although with Death here, it’s likely that these have already been set in motion. So I would see this as that I will continue to struggle (5) with changes or endings that have occured in the past and trying to move on in a positive beginning from them. Think this is probably pointing to a relationship *sigh*. Although with the cards above for leaving, this combo might be a more positive in that I’ll be more open to those changes moving forward, instead of holding on to the past as before.
Scythe – Dog – Heart
Letter
Hmm, interesting. Scythe/Death pretty much echo each other in that there are definitely unexpected changes, or energy around that that are going to keep influecing my life this month.
I’d take Dog/Heart to point to someone I care for deeply, or someone that I was in a relationship with. So some feelings regarding a sudden change, and likely communication (Letter) with that person is going to keep influencing my life this month. So I guess this situation is going to continue to be ongoing, and there will be some communication about it (likely following the communication that started in Feb.. so it is continuing in that sense.)
4) Energies Entering my Life
5 of Wands/King of Swords
5 of Wands showed up before, so don’t know how “new” this is 😛
5 of Wands here could either go 2 ways:
I will either be feeling more conflicted about things surrounding this King of Swords figure (not sure who this would be representing)
Or it could be that there will be more of an energy of challenge and competition around me, which will make me push myself – creating that type of KoS energy of being analytical, quick thinking, on your toes. Actually – I think that makes sense when looking at the fact that the Tower/Death etc have come up before.. while that will likely create some feelings of being conflicted, I could see how those types of situation will bring in a challenging energy, that will make me think in a different way in response – so maybe the energy entering will be this energy that makes me thought process about these changes change.
Stars – Fox – Fish
Ring
A lot of these cards are traditiona business cards, so there may be energy that makes me approach things from more of a business mindset, or there will be more energy/focus coming into my life when it comes to preparing for the new job that I start in May. I guess similar to business, these could also say that there will be more of a hard-working attitude (Fox/Fish) adopted to try to reach my goals (Stars).
Only other thought here is that I may have renewed commitment (ring) to reaching my goals (Stars) which makes me act more indepently and look out more for myself (Fish/Fox)
5) Developments: Work/School
The Empress/3 of Cups
That looks promising – looks like I may accomplish a fit bit in these areas in the next month (Empress), things that may even be worth celebration (3). I think this is pointing to that in terms of school, I may be more dedicated because I will enjoy my work (3) and approach it with an outlook of nuturing/loving what I’m doing (Empress) instead of it just being something that I have to do. Looks pretty good.
Rider – Sun – Woman
Key
Key makes me think this will likely be an important month for me in this area. Rider/Woman makes me think that I will be in control of the direction that things go, of setting things in motion etc. Looks like I may be working hard/quickly, and with Sun there (especially with Sun/Key) – those are good cards of being successful in these areas throughout the month of March. So overall, especially with Empress/3 of Cups above, it looks like this will be a good month when it comes to school – I should be feeling pretty good about what I’m doing, and will probably be pretty successful in doing it.
6) Developments: Love/Relationships
3 of Wands/Death
I’m not too sure on this combo, this doesn’t seem to say that there will be any large developments or relationships starting.. it more says that I’ll open to possibilities, following some change..
Death could be saying that I’ll be going through some changes as the month begins (as the base), with the 3 maybe saying that I’ll be more willing to explore new possibilities when it comes to love (new beginnings) throughout the rest of the month. That’s all I got here =/
Clouds – Dog – House
Fox
House I’m not sure on here. But it looks like there will be some confusion about someone in particular (Clouds/Dog). The light side of the Clouds are pointing towards the Dog, which should mean that the confusion surrounding this person will be lifted/cleared throughout the month. I guess with house on the end there, it could mean that the confusion around the Dog will clear (Clouds/Dog), and give way to greater stability/security (House). So that may not be all bad.. House doesn’t point to anything overly romantic, but just says more that the relationship will become more stable and rooted.
Fox as the base says that either I won’t trust the intentions of this person (hence the foncusion maybe), or that this situation will make me really be on my toes and have to do some quick thinking.
7) Developments: Self
2 of Wands/3 of Cups
Looks like I can expect to be in greater control and to be more open to others throughout the month. With the 2, I think that I may be feeling more confident/brace this month – more viousnary, willing to look a head instead of being stuck in the past, while with the 3, I may be feeling more free spirited/happy in general, and will be more open to engaging and going out with others.
Woman – Cross – Key
Snake
Looks like this may be an important month, primarily focused on my finally overcoming/dealing with some emotions of the past and finding “new life” (Snake) after that. So it will be a month of trying to start a new, following some important emotional issues that may need to be dealt with.
8) Advice for the Month
Page of Pentacles/Strength
Advice is to take things slowly and not to overreact in either a positive or negative way to anything that comes up. I think I need to be practical about things this month, and to be sure to temper myself so that I act with compassion/patience instead of overreacting or automatically becoming angry. I think it’ll be important to keep things in perspective, to be self aware and maintain some self control when dealing with things.
Mountain – Book – Snake
Ring
Ring I think is telling me to stay committed/true to myself. Mountain I think is just reinforcing that there will be some problems/challenges this month and that the best way for me to approach them is to be informed (Book) and rely on my own intuition/my own self (Snake)
Cards for Wed:
Base: Ring
Ring as the base would point to a commitment or an agreement, perhaps some concern or movement there.
Key – Mountain – Woman
Key: Success, something important, something opening/closing
Mountain: Obstacles, delays, blocks that seem hard to overcome
Woman is likely representing me, or in this case it could be someone who brings me insight.
I take this as tomorrow I will experience some new insight (either from my own doing, or that of another woman) about a blockage or delay I’m currently experiencing, that likely has to do with some form of agreement or commitment. I kind of get the feeling that it will be a bit of an “uh-ha!” momement about how I can move forward and stop being so stuck.
Update: I think I know what these were frerring to..I think Key/Mountain was pointing more to “gauranteed delays/obstacles”. I got the news today that I have to apply for reliability and security clearance for my new job, and it took forever and was very exhausting for me to get done today, and definitely caused delays for the rest of my work.
Slightly confusing draw for tomorrow…
Base: Cross
Something karmic or fated in nature, “bearing a cross”
Ring – House – Garden – Rider – Tree
Hmmm not sure on this one..
Ring + House: May point to my search for a housing contract – somewhere to live in the summer. A commitment/agreement regarding somewhere to live, or something else to do with a home/family type thing.
Rider + Tree: Long-awaited news or movement in a situation. News about health.
Ring + Tree: Again, long-awaited commitment, a health agreement (seems unlikely).. this could have to do with the growth of an agreement or commitment, trying to bring something to fruitation and make it more solid.
House + Rider: News coming to me, news to do with my housing hunt.
House/Garden/Rider: News coming to me, perhaps of an event or at an event.
Really not sure on this one, Garden seems to throw it off a bit too – although that could just rpresent something that will draw me outside throughout the day.
Rider would say that I’ll receive news tomorrow, although it looks like that could be health related, or related to my housing hunt. Although House/Rider could just be news coming to me at home.
Ring/Tree would seem to say this is something that I’ve been invested in for a long time (Cross could also reinforce this)
Cross as the base would connect all of this to either a situation that is somehow karmic in nature, or one that is important to me and has been weighing on me.
Nooo idea on what else this could be :S
Cards pour tomorrow:
Base: Anchor
Flowers – Storks – Ring – Birds – Letter
Well, 2 cards here that are the same as my cards drawn for today.
Anchor as the base would imply that the events of tomorrow will all have an underlying theme or focus on long-term stability, or something that is rooted and currently deeply engrained in my life. With the Ring in the center, it looks like the focus of tomorrow may be on long-term commitments, relationships, contracts etc.
Flowers + Storks: I’d see this as a positive invitation, perhaps a celebration of something new. Happy news about a change or new part of my life that is beginning.
Birds + Letter: This could be communication the will make me nervous or anxious. Birds could be representing my roommates, so the communication could have to do with gossip. With these 2 cards, I would definitely think there will be some important news tomorrow.
Flowers + Letter: Positive news, an invitation to go out is received.
Storks + Birds: This could be feeling nervous about a change, having communication about a change etc.
Hmmm, so again, it looks like there will be lots of communication tomorrow. With Flowers/Storks/Ring I think that some of this might have to do with communication around the job that I was offered and will be accepting today – there may be some happy messages exchanged around that.
Ring – Birds – Letter makes me think that while there will be some positive news/communication there will also be some nervous back/forth coversations. Not completely sure what this will be about, it could also be about the work contract, or a relationship in general.
Sandy’s combos..
Flowers + Storks: joyful change, happy move/relocation
Flowers + Letter: Happy news, invitation, present
So it does look like part of my day tomorrow will likely be about having happy conversations about my move – perhaps hearing about other friends who have also accepted new jobs or are making new plans.
Storks + Ring: Change in relationship, good changes caused by a new contract, commitment, engagement, marriage
Ring + Birds: Many contracts, talk concerning partnerships, contracts
Storks + Birds: Change in combination with difficulties, agitation
Birds + Letter: Many messages, dispatch is connected with anxiety
Interesting – as it almost seems like while there will be lots of happy news being exchange tomorrow (likely connected to my new job offer), there will also be lots of anxious communication, which I would think would be connected to another matter. I don’t normally have success when I say something relationship related is going to happen, but with Storks-Ring-Birds, there could be some change or discussion/anxiety about a commitment to someone. News could come in that makes me anxious about a relationship.
Anchor + Flowers: Long lasting happiness
Anchor + Storks: Change enhances stability and security, new work
Anchor + Ring: Stable association, long-term agreement, employment contract, fortunate and mutual relationship
Anchor + Birds: Anxiety/nervousness about long term stability/security
Anchor + Letter: Letter/documents concerning long-term stability/security
So again – tomorrow will be focused around issues that are more important in the long-term, though I feel like there will be 2 issues of importance here. One focused around my new work (Anchor/Storks/Ring), which will generally be of a happy nature (Flowers-Storks), and the other being about my happiness/stability in relationships (AnchorStorks//Ring/Birds), which may involve some communication that brings about some anxiety (Birds/Letter)
Update: Well, not sure on this one. Maybe the cards were just trying to reassure me preemptively LOL I spent most of the day really upset because of a relationship that ended about1-2 months ago.. I guess part of it that I hadn’t dealt with just hit me, making for a pretty bleak and very unproductive day. Which leaves me with a whole 4 page essay towrite tomorrow (eek!), but I’m hoping if I wake up early, hopefully in a better state of mind then I’ll just be able to bang it out 😀
Anyways – cards for today. Not sure, I know they were probably pointing to a relationship, but there’s nothing here that would point to anything upsetting/painful. I guess the Book could be those feelings being revealed to me, but again, if they weren’t “good” feelings I’d expect different cards. Maybe it was a “cheer up, there’s something you’re not seeing yet draw” 😉
Cards for today
Base: House
Ring – Book – Heart
Interesting combo. The Book as the center I take to mean something that hasn’t been revealed, or that will be revealed. With the Ring/Heart combo, it could be something revealed about a relationship. With the House at the bottom, this could be something about my relationships at my home – so maybe with my roommates. There aren’t many “active” cards here, so it could even be a relationship will be on my mind while I’m at home today, and I’m thinking about long-term partners (House/Ring/Heart)
This is one of those draws where I’m really not sure, since Ring/Heart would generally point to a relationship, and Book combined with them can point to kind of a secret admirer, but well, I’m not attached and don’t think I’m going to be anytime soon so they seem a little out of place haha
Ring: Partnership, contracts, agreements, offers, proposals, gifts, marriage
Book: Secrets, a mystery, knowledge, paperwork, studies, training, education
Heart: Love, happiness, romance, passion
Houes: Home, stability, family ties
Ring + Book: Paternship documents, secret love, secret organization
Book + Heart: Secret Love
Ring + Heart: Marriage, life partner, love match, love relationship, commitment
House + Ring: House contract
House + Book: Screts concerning house/family
House + Heart: Loving home
So the Book is definitely more likely to be pointing to something unexpected that I’m not aware of right now, it could be that I will become aware of it today, or even that it will be going on in the background somehow and I won’t be aware of it, perhaps. This one is really throwing me off, because it seems quite simple about what it should have to deal with, but that doesn’t really fit in with the context of what’s going on in my life right now.
I have gotten some readings recently about a partner/relationship coming my way, so maybe the cards are just trying to reassure me that that’s in the works lol Who knows 😛
B
So in the past few months I’ve done the same monthly spread as is below, but I normally do it with Tarot cards, drawing only one card per position. For this reading, I’ve combined Tarot with my Lenormand deck – looking at one Tarot card and it’s base for each draw, then 3 Lenormand cards and its base for as well. Lots of information came up during this reading (or more so than I feel I normally get :P), so I’m interested to see how the month goes!
Feb. 2012 reading
1) Overall Theme for the Month
The Magician Base: Wheel of Fortune
Magician: Taking action, acting consciously, concentrating, experiencing power
The Tarot draw makes this look like a good, and rather important month – with the Wheel saying that the month will be one where things will be changing, and in motion.. and the Magician implies that I’ll have control over some of these changes, and will likely have everything “at my fingertips” to help make those changes move to my benefit. This may be an empowering month in the sense that I get back on track and more in touch with myself and my own power.
Base: Flowers
Ring – Ship – Tower
Flowers: luck, invitation, gift
Ring: Partnership, relationship, contract
Ship: journey, business, dealings, luck in business
Tower: Authorities, Isolation, person in a position of power
This month is when I find out the results from my first round of co-op applications, so I’ll find out if I get job offers or if I have to keep applying/interviewing throughout the term. This could be a positive indication, with the Flowers saying that I can likely expect some good news and the Ring/Tower could indicate a contract being created with a well known or established company, and the Ship representing the changes that come from that.
Flower/Wheel as the base definitely make me feel that there will be positive changes this month, with the Wheel it can sometimes be difficult to point the direction of the changes.. but I think that the Flowers probably puts a positive spin on them.
The Lenormand with the Magician makes it seem like a pretty good month, though it looks like I’ll mostly be concentrated on landing that co-op job and may still have periods of feeling lonely/isolated. Though I think the Ship as well ties in with the overal general theme of positive changes.
2) Energies Leaving my Life
Ace of Cups/8 of Pentacles
Hmmm, not to sure about this draw. Ace of Cups normally represents something “new” on an emotional level, so as something leaving it could mean that I may be leaving either a time of being overemotional, or emotionally stagnant.. I’ve felt a bit withdrawn from others this month, so maybe that general overemotional energy will be leaving.
With the 8 of Pents as the base, combined with the Ace, I feel like maybe this is representing work I’ve been putting in on an emotional level. So it could be that I’ll find it easier this month to stay balanced on an emotional level and that it won’t take as much focus/intent on my part to stay emotionally stable/balanced. This seems promising! I’ve been rather back and forth emotionally, and have felt like it’s been a struggle that has needed that focus/work, so if that energy can start to leave than that would be a very positive change this month.
Lenormand…
Base: Birds
Flowers – Snake – Heart
Birds: Nervousness, sorrow, communication
Snake: Betrayal, lies, woman, feminine energy
Heart: Love, relationships, kindness
Another odd draw for “leaving energy”, with the Birds as the base I’m kind of getting a “woman scorned in love” type feeling from these cards haha. The Birds say that I’ve been nervous or anxious about something, and with the other cards it looks like maybe my personal joy, optimism and hope in love may have been tainted by past experiences where I have been mislead or betrayed (that created that anxiousness). Could also be saying that I’ve been nervous/anxious waiting for an invitation or message about a relationship, and that that anxiety will leave.
With the Birds/8 of Pents as the base, it looks like I may have been struggling to stay focused amongst being anxious and that this energy will become easier for me. The Ace of Cups and the Lenormand draw I take to mean that any extreme emotions will be leaving, likely negative, but this could also mean that an unrealistic hopeful outlook will start to fade too.
3) Energies continuing to influence my life
The Tower/8 of Cups
Hmm more changes. The Tower I take to the mean that I experienced a shake up in the past (since this is continuing to influence), and that I’ve been working on regaining stability and on making my expectations of myself and others more realistic (someone once mentioned this card as “Setting yourself up for failure, and that’s kind of stuck with me).. with the 8 of Cups as the base, I think that’s pointing to my trying to move on in general from a difficult or stagnant situation, with the Tower showing the shake-up that was initially needed to take the first step forward from that.
So overall, I take this to mean that I’m still going to be struggling with finding some internal stability and with creating realistic expectations/perceptions for where I am now.
Lenormand..
Base: Moon
Scythe – Mice – Child
Interesting that the Tower and the Scythe came up!
Moon: Success, acknowledgment, emotional issues, intuition, psychic powers, the soul
Scythe: Sudden changes
Mice: Loss, sorrows, something being revealed
Child: Opportunities, new beginnings
Moon + Scythe: Sudden mood swings, emotional hurt
Moon/8 of Cups seem to line up as well..representing feel the desire (“in my soul”) to move on from a situation.. following a gut feeling to leave something behind, even though it was an emotional decision.
Scythe again reenforces that I’ll be recovering from changes in the recent past, and still dealing with the loss from that (Mice), Mice/Child also makes me think that that loss/changes are going to slowly start to develop into a new beginning as that energy/changes starts to settle.
4) Energies entering my life
8 of Wands/The Tower
Tower again, this time as the base. Which I think shows that those energies will be influencing, but also starting to fade as the 8 of Wands starts taking over (likely later into the month). The 8 of Wands could be an indication that things are going to be set in motion, there might be a rush of activity (or the feeling of that in general in the month) but also a feeling that “things are up in the air”.. so even though I might have control with the Magician coming up previously this month, there’s going to enter a point where I’ve done all I can (Magician) and then all I can do is wait and see where the energy I’ve put out lands (8 of Wands). So both busy and active energy coming into my life, but then followed by feelings of not really being certain of where things are going (which might be further influenced by the Tower).
Base: Key
Moon – Stars – Child
More repeats here from the energies “contuing to influence”.. so even though there will be some changes, it looks like parts of that energy might remain more dominant throughout the month.
Key: Success, luck
Moon: Success, acknowledgment, emotions, intuition
Stars: Luck, Success, intuition, spirtuality, pscyhic powers/astrology
Child: Opportunities, New beginnings
Moon + Stars: Fame, creative genious
Stars + Child: Luck for a young lady
Key + Moon: emotional security, trust in self, success
Key + Stars: winner, awards
Key + Child: New start, young lady is good in what she does
Wow! looks like very successful/lucky energy should be entering my life this month. The Key bodes well as the base, even combined with the Tower the Key could be an indication that things will start to rebuild and rebuild strongly at that making me feel more stable and secure.
Moon/Star are both cards of success, as are the Key, so I’m going to reach a point in the month where successful/lucky energy comes into my life.. probably more so influencing my academics (and hopefully my job hunt!) more than anything else (since Stars can be business related). This also makes it look like this month I’ll get more in touch with myself on a spirtual/intuitive level which is always nice to see. With the Child ending, I think this also means that I’ll be successful in starting to move forwards to a new beginning.
Combined with the 8 of Wands, the 3 Lenormand cards make me feel like anything I put into motion this month (probably mostly later in to the month) will have a stroke of luck/success to them, meaning that even though I might feel like things are up in the air and out of my control, they’ll be likely to land in my favour.
Overall – looks like good, stable energy will be coming in after some of the changes I’ve been feeling and dealing with.
5) Developments: Work/School
King of Pentacles/Ace of Pentacles
I’m hoping those 2 cards will be a positive indicator for my co-op job.. they could represent a practical business man (King) offering me a new job opportunity (Ace). *Crosses fingers*
Other than that, it could mean I’ll be interacting with businesmen in hopes of getting that opportunity, or I’ll be bringing that practical, grounded and hard-working energy into my studies in general.
Overall – not a bad draw!
Base: Moon (again!)
Tree – Woman – Stork
Tree: Life, Karma, something long growing
Storks: Changes, moving house, new beginnings
Moon + Storks: Changes promises success, emotional satisfaction
Tree + Storks: Change happens slowly
So I think these cards are more focused on me than on anyone else, so this may be my approach to work/school this month instead of being external factors. Tree could be an indication that I’ll be “setting roots”, or taking the knowledge/skills that I’ve developed in the past and applying them to new situations.
Looking at the bases – Moon/Ace of Pents, tihs could be that I’ll be successful in getting that offer/fresh start in business (or in school even, maybe I’ll find a successful new approach). And with the other cards, maybe the King of Pents will be causing me to set (or reexamine) my roots and then make or prepare for necessary changes.
So they’ll be changes that I have to make here, I wonder if Tree/Storks could indicate moving from somewhere where I’ve set roots..
This looks pretty good in terms of my co-op jobs though, but we’ll see. I could just be being overly hopeful in my outlook on this draw 😀
6) Developments: Love/Relationships
3 of Swords/8 of Pents
Well, not the happiest cards. I feel like this almost mirrors what I picked up on in the “Energies leaving”. I’m not currently attached to anyone, so I take the 3 of Swords/8 of Pents combo as saying that I’m not going to be involved with anyone for at least the majority of February, and that I’ll still be working and focused on healing from a past relationship or past hurts. Workingo n forgiving myself and others. (So much for that energy leaving :S)
Base: Woman
Bear – Anchor – Storks
Bear: Luck, power, wealth, strength, a businessman, older person, ex-lover
Anchor: Work, stability, long-term issues
Storks: Changes, moving house, new beginnings
Bear + Anchor: Stability, work related man
Anchor + Storks: Change enhances stability and security, changes at work
Bear + Storks: Change in work/work related people
Stork is ending this “developments” draw as well, that’s interesting.
The Bear falling in the left of the draw could be representing the person that the 3 of Swords is pointing to – an ex-lover. Doesn’t seem like he’ll be popping up, but more that I’ll be continuing to deal with issues of finding long-term stability/security again after what happened with him. Bear also implies that I’m going to be relying on a lot of inner strength to do this. Storks is a positive sign at the end,saying that by the end of the month I’ll be open to new beginnings and changes and possibly ready to open up to new opportunities.
The Woman/8 of Pents as the base cards really do say that this month I’m going to be working on myself, probably my relationship with myself, more than anything else.
Not what I would have liked to have seen here.. I thought I’d moved on from things better than that by now to have the 3 of Swords pop up as the developments.. but oh well. Hopefully the Bear/3 aren’t indications that he’ll be bringing any more pain into my life this month.
7) Developments: Self, internal development
3 of Cups/2 of Swords
This combo with the 2 of Swords as the base makes me feel like I’ll be opening myself up to new experiences and new friendships this month. With the 2, recently I may have been more focused on myself and internal problems, while later into this month I’ll be ready to open up and focus more externally on my relationships with other people. Looks like a positive development overall.
Base: Clover
Birds – Woman – Snake
Birds + Snake: Hectic/worried woman
Clover + Snake: Fortunate woman, woman who brings luck/hope
Clover + Birds: Fortunate discussions/partnerships
Well, the woman in the middle I think reinforces that I will have some focus on myself this month. I think with the Birds/Snake combo this could be saying I’m going to be working on overcoming any inner doubts and anxieties, and instead turning them more into my own “feminine power”. With the Clover as the base I think developments from the Birds/Snake will be positive, so I see this as overcoming anxiety and any past betrayal and growing from them in a way that brings more balance into my life (since the Woman is the center).
Clover/2 Swords could indicate that it will be something sudden that snaps me out of that internal focus, nothing bad, but just something unexpected.
8) Advice for the month
Ace of Swords/Ace of Pents
Since these are both Aces, I take this to mean I should embrace any new opportunities/energies that come my way. With the Ace of Swords, I need to really make use of my mind and words this month.. I’ll have a lot of internal power, but how I use that will ultimately determine the effect of it. I may need to be blunt and truthful at times this month, and then the oppposite – more tactful at others. Ace of Pents since they’ll be some good opportunities opening up for me, and that I should proceed onwards with trust.
Base: Stars
Mice – Mountains – Ship
Mice + Mountain: Frustration, exasperation, failures
Mountains + Ship: Obstacles in a journey
Stars + Ship: successful journey, journey to make a new start
Mountain + Stars: slow progress, dream on hold, late bloomer
I guess the advice here is to keep my eye on what I want or am working towards (Star) and don’t turn small issues into big ones and cause unnecessary anxiety or worry for myself (Mice/Mountain).. I should keep moving, don’t get bugged down by the small things.
Ace of Pents/Stars says there should be good energy around me, but I could be my own worse enemey this month if I don’t make that energy work to my benefit and just end up causing my self anxiety/worry.
This was definitely a fun experiment if nothing else! I’m open to any other readers thoughts/opinions (if there’s anybody out there.. lol ;))

Update: No real idea how this fits 😦 Maybe it could be an indication that my general weekly “theme” was being set in motion..No news on anything I mentioned below. I guess in some ways I set goals with myself (Ring) to find longer-term stablity/comfort with myself (Anchor/House) in motion (Rider).. but again, seems like it’s stretching is :S
Cards for tomorrow..
Base: Ring
Anchor – House – Rider
Well, I`ll be making a short journey to my parents place tomorrow which the house could be describing..
The Ring as a base means that the overal theme of the day (or event, if the draw is picking up on something specific) will have to do with commitment – business, romantic, friendship etc.
Anchor, House, Rider makes me think that I might receive news about a long-term living situation.. my roommates are looking at housing for next Fall, so perhaps this means that we`ll find out contract details then, and that the news will come faster than expected (Rider). But since we just talked about it tonight, I’m really not sure if my roommate will have had time to look into it tomorrow.
Hmmm that`s really all I got. I could stretch it at bit and say my long-term stability (Anchor/House) will be effected when I receive a message from someone I have a present or prior commitment to (Ring/Rider), but that doesn’t seem as intuitive.
Let’s see if Sandy’s Interactive Oracle can give me some more clues on the combinations here..
Anchor + House: Long-term studies, work in connection with books, documents for work
Anchor + Rider: Reassuring news
House + Rider: News about a House
Anchor + Ring: Stable association, long-term agreement, fortunate and mutual relationship
House + Ring: Lease/Sale contract for a house
Rider + Ring: Proposal of marraige; contract
Hmmm, not much there. I still think the best bet is that it has to do with my housing for the Fall – but again, highly doubt to hear on that tomorrow.
Otherwise, I guess I could receive positive/reassuring news about applications (“documents for work”), I submitted for my co-op round in the Summer (the Ring could be pointing to that commitment of a job)
Again – stretching it maybe, but Rider/Anchor/Ring say it could have something to do with receiving a proposal in a long-term relationship.
Well, with 3 different options, hopefully I”m not off 😀
It’s also interesting that Anchor Ring and House popped up since they were a part of my weekly reading, so this could just be pointing to that the events I described there (which seem to be mostly pointing to job related things, but could also be about a relationship/friendship) might be put into motion with the Rider moving towards them.
I’m reluctant to say that the whole week theme is about jobs though, since today I received one interview and was prescreened for another and that didn’t seem to come up in my daily cards atall.. so I would think that the communication that the Letter/Birds (and now the Rider here) is pointing towards would be something bigger than that? But I guess as well, it could just be saying that I’ll receive more than one piece of news about jobs?
Not too sure on this.
Night all!
I decided to try a weekly draw for the first time to see how it works in combination with my daily draws, I’m hoping they’ll work well together and put each other in context.. *crosses fingers*
This week:
Base: Letter
Anchor – Birds – Dog – Ring – House
The Dog is the central focus here, so it can either represent a close friend or an ex-lover. I think too, in this case, it could also possibly represent a potential employer. In any case, Letter is the underlying theme of the week which means that communication will be important.
Anchor/House are flanking, which means that this week will be centered around long-term thoughts or ideals, creating greater stability for myself and the feeling of being “at home” both with myself, where I live and also the place I’m at in my life.
Birds can indicate that the communication that will be going on will make me a bit nervous, and it also reinforces that there will be some important (it may not be lots – but likely something bigger/worth mentioning) communication going on. The Ring here, being to the right of the Dog, makes me think that the Dog will be offering me some kind of a commitment. Whether it be flashing a job opportunity in front of me, the potentpial for a relationship etc.
So overall, lots of communication that might make me nervous throughout the week as I search for greater long term stability and sense of self right now, this could be job or relationship related – but will likely involve some kind of offer that looks very good from the “Dog” figure.
Card combos for reference:
Anchor + Bird: anxiety and nervousness about long-term stability, or work
Birds + Dog: Communication with a friend, a nervous friend, many friends
Dog + Ring: club, society, association related to a man
Ring + House: contract related to home life
Anchor + Letter: Letter/documents about long-term stability, job cntracts
Birds + Letter: Many messages, maybe anxious exchanges
Dog + Letter: Message from a friend
Ring + Letter: Contract/agreement
House + Letter: information/letter received at home
The combo’s from Sandy’s interactive tutortial seem to reinforce the conclusions I’ve already drawn.. that this week I may be anxious about work/long-term stability, but some interaction/communication will make me feel better towards the end of the week. This could either be job related, through being offered interviews, contracts etc, or it could be some kind of a stable commitment offered by a friend.
I drew 2 cards for today, focusing on what would be the most significant event of my day.
Base: Ring
Paths and Fish
Ring: Partnership, relationship/connection, binding contracts
Paths: Being infront of a decision, alternaties and choices
Fish: Money, finances, business, businessman
As I’ve just started a new round of applying for co-op jobs through my masters program (basically, every 4 months us lucky students get to hunt for jobs while we’re in school through a competitive application/interview process).. so I just finished applying to about 25 jobs on Tuesday, interviews start Monday which means that employers are able to start picking people to interview now.
At first – I thought with the Paths/Fish that I might receive news of interviews today, with one or more interviews representing a “different” path. I thought this made sense with the Ring, since interviews are a binding commitment once we are picked for them.
But no such luck! I heard from one job, but was turned down for an interview, so I’m not sure how this fits.
I was reading another blog where someone mentioned that sometimes her daily readings take a couple days to actually take place, but I’m not sure if that’s the case here.
It could be that being turned down for that interview, and given that I’ve applied to less jobs than I have in the past (last time I was co-op hunting I applied to 40-45), it’s made me a little nervous about how/if I’ll get a job this round.
I guess overlaying everythough, I could be worried about not getting a commitment to a job (Ring), which is making me re-evaluate the job related choices I have made (Paths/Fish)?
I’m not sure, that may be stretching it..
I’ll check in a couple days to see if anything clicks then.
