⇢ what say the Cards?

[starkissed]

Did some tarot reading for a couple of folks on Plurk, and putting them here for convenience's sake.


✖✖ Please note that I'm using 2 books for the interpretations, btw. The first bullet point will be the interpretation from the Vertigo tarot booklet which came with my Deck. The second bullet point will be from the interpretation from a book called "Tarot: Plain and Simple" by Anthony Louis (though not the full interpretation, otherwise, it'd be too long).

✓ Zephy (school)

Seven of cups in reverse

Nine of swords in reverse

Turning away from something. Avoiding a painful situation.

You may still be suffering the aftermath of a trying situation, but the pain is mostly over. Your imaginings, however, are far worse than the reality of your situation. You have upset yourself unnecessarily by worrying without sufficient reason.

Page of wands

Strength, eagerness, especially for new projects, great activity. A person who is forthright and positive, who keeps no secrets.

Even in its reversed position, the Four of Wands is a generally positive card, but there is a greater price to pay for success…. May represent some form of obstacle or restraint that you need to overcome.

There may be a delay in receiving what you truly deserve.

★ Naru (general)

Queen of pentacles in reverse

Ten of swords

Intellect, abstraction, perfection of thought, detachment from emotion or daily worries.

You have hit bottom. Your plans are not working out. You have reached the outer limits. A situation or relationship is coming to its irrevocable end, and you maybe feeling on the threshold of depression because of your loss. You have done all you can and it is time to make a definite break or suffer the consequences.

★ Noey (general)

Seven of pentacles

Production, material success, though this may be flawed. Immersing yourself in your work.

You may feel like you have been wasting time on a project, but this is not the case. You have reached a logical place to pause and asses the development of an ongoing project or enterprise.

The high priestess

Stillness. Wisdom, intuition. A sense of knowing things which cannot be explained in normal terms.

Something is going on beneath the surface. Hidden knowledge needs to see the light of day. The High Priestess appears when you need to attend to your innermost feelings and listen to your inner voice… Trust your feelings. Your dreams and intuitions give the best counsel.

Knight of cups in reverse

The dreamy, introverted side becomes stronger. He may resent demands people make on him.

You may receive an offer that seems too good to be true. Someone is probably lying to you. Avoid being too passive and easily influenced by others. You are in danger of being misled.

Eight of wands in reverse (this card wanted to come along - it practically popped out of my deck as I was doing the reading)

Possible delays, confusion. May indicate the need to make a choice.

You may be feeling overwhelmed by the fast pace of events… Your hasty actions don’t get you where you want to go. Be careful not to force issues just now because you may precipitate violent opposition. Expect delays.

♡ Linh (relationships)

The hanged man

Eight of pentacles in reverse

Beauty, perfection, especially in work. Possibly shallowness.

Your impatience or desire to take the easy way out may involve you in an unethical or unrewarding work situation…. In any case, problems regarding your work or lack of it preoccupy your mind and affect your behavior.

Eight of cups in reverse

Stability becomes emphasized. Seeing the value in what you have. Resisting a desire to move on.

May be telling you either that your current relationships are better than you think or that you are refusing to heed the advice of the upright card (that is, to leave an unsatisfactory emotional situation behind and seek more fulfillment in your life). You should appreciate what you’ve got more before casting it aside. You may be having trouble letting go of an unsatisfactory relationship… It is possible that a change you are contemplating is the wrong move at this time.

★ Linh (general)

Strength

Strength of character and feeling. Gentle persuasion.

You will need to rely on inner strength, patience, and gentleness to solve your problems. Now is a time to have faith in yourself… A tactful, diplomatic approach leads to success.

Ace of pentacles in reverse

Difficulties or arguments around money. Dissatisfaction with simple security.

Something is likely to go wrong with a new venture you have recently begun. A loss is possible. Circumstances surrounding health, job, money or business matters seem to work against you. Excessive greed or materialism may cause problems.

Eight of swords

Concealing or burying feeling of aggression. Acting polite or nice when you don’t necessarily feel it. Allowing other people to confuse you.

Represents fear, blockage, limitation and restriction that are often self-imposed. You feel boxed in, trapped, and unable to move. You may be acting as your own worst enemy because of your fear of the unknown and your reluctance to try something new or assert yourself… You must face your fears before you can make an important decision. With courage, you can transcend your anxieties and resolve the problems that surround you.

Sorry this took so long, guys. Typing (and formatting - hush, I like to make things look pretty) everything took a while, plus I had other stuff to finish today.

Hope this helps. ♥
