I'm making this thread as a tarot thread for the readings done by me.

At this time, I'm not asking for querants, as time is getting away from me fast.
Though, at some point in time, i'll be open for readings, and will post again when that time comes.

Hi, I will be reading the Gilded Tarot, using a three card spread.

Past: King of Pentacles

the King of Pentacles, usually refers to someone of the earth element.
Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn.

Earth is stability, hard work, and security.

Someone who is able to get out and work with people, giving as much as receiving.
A jack of all trades, and pretty good at most.
someone who encourages other's, and growth, and is a great support to the cause.

Present: 5 of Wands

This card usually relates to disagreeing, hassels, some type of competition.

Small, or petty arguing, or disagreements.

Be patient, and work for the common good would be a good stance.

Future: 2 of Cups

This card relates to attraction, truce, and connection.
Coming together into an argeement.

I'm not sure what the "Premiership this season", is all about.

I'm thinking it has to do with some type of contest, or election.

I'm not sure the 'who's who' of all of this, or what they are doing.

But...

I'd say, that the King of Pentacles, would be a good leader, or has been a good leader.
He is one to help, and look out for the other's that are involved.

The 5 of Wands, also lends to the idea of a competition, of sorts, where there is more than one group involved, or different ideas being discussed.

This King of Pents, would be someone who maybe able to get everyone sat down, and working together, rather than tearing themselves apart.

By figuring out what can be worked with, and agreeing to disagree, and work for the 'whole', things will settle down, and be in unison.

If the people involved considered the best for all, rather, than some petty single concern, all will be well.

Please give me some feed back on this, as I'm not really sure what the subject is.

Your reading was very accurate and it talked about a current situation I find myself in. The situation is playing out quickly however, and its just the way you say it is. Just to clarify slightly...

Sometimes if I am part of a group, I dont like to see discord between people. But often to solve discord, you have to stir things up, raise tensions and allow people to release their pent up frustrations. This is what I do - give others the opportunity to speak freely and act bravely, challenging them and others.

I am using the Gilded Tarot, and working with a Celtic Cross for your reading.

1 You - 6 of Wands
2 Crossing - 10 of Swords
3 Foundation - Ace of Cups
4 Past - 8 of Pentacles
5 Present - 5 of Cups
6 Future - 4 of Cups
7 Yourself - The Heirophant
8 Enviroment - Temperance
9 Hopes and Fears - The Devil
10 Outcome - The Moon

You've done well, and deserve to be recognised. Don't rest to long on your laurels.

Your at the end of a hard situtaion, and the tide is about to turn.

You are at the start of an exciting adventure.

Your discipline and drive will serve you well, just take time to relax.

You have experienced a loss, and must mourn, but beware of prolonging your time of morning, out of a desire for attention, or fear of the future.

You must know the difference between convictions, and fantasies.

Make sure all beliefs and practices make sense to your own heart, and mind before you make them part of your life.

Do not let the fear of making a mistake lead you to constant inaction. While inaction is sometimes the right choice, it is not always.
Do not let any belief of practice overshadow all other aspects of your life or your responsibilies to yourself and others.

Pay attention to your dreams and your intuition. Face your fears, even if you do so a little at a time.
Be aware of not seeing clearly, of being afraid of shadows, or of being led astray by shadowy images that aren't what they seem.

^Those are the meanings of the cards from the book.

Now, I'd say you feel kinda trapped in you situation.
You feel betrayed in someway, and your doing the best you know to do, but still trapped.

What you consider your being there for in the first place is not what is reality, or not a give and take reality. You feel taken advantage of and have tried to make the best of it, only to find your getting no where.

It may be hard, but all is not lost, get yourself together, and do what will be the best in the long run for you and your son.

The Strength card had jumped out of the deck while I was shuffling for you.
I'd say that you do indeed, have what it takes to do what you know to be the right thing, and the Moon card is a card of wishes, and dreams.

So, pack it up, and follow you dream!

Hope this helped.
{but you knew the answer to begin with didn't you, just needed a voice to agree with what you already knew, so get out of there!}

On the cosmic level (what I call the "big picture") I DO already know the answer...I feel it, I feel it every moment of every day pretty much. But on a different level, I've put all my eggs in one basket and now I can't see my way out. If I just up and left, I'd be doing it without any money, not even a car! And all I keep thinking about is my kid. Oh how I dispise being enslaved by material things, yet here I sit.

I'm not in a BAD situation, in fact, most people would love to have what I've (luckily) found. Some women look their whole lives for a man like the one I live with; the kindness; the constant support...etc. He deserves the chance to find someone who's WHOLE heart is with him because mine isn't.

I just look around and KNOW I don't want to get old here, I don't want my son to learn the views of the "bible belt", there's more to life than this, even if it IS harder. I've NEVER liked North Carolina but for a little while, I thought I was doing the right thing. I always tryed to find things to do to keep me busy, always looking for something to take pride in...something to make me content. Obviously, it didn't work.

"Trapped" you say? Nothing could be more true than that! No one tryed to trap me. I can't help but think I did this all to myself. I worked really hard to get this way...LOL

"Constant inaction" is ALL I've been doing.
Life just keeps zooming by me.

THANK YOU again...
I'm gonna' end this asking you to pray or make a wish that Nathan (my son) ultimately has every thing he needs. Here's hoping that he doesn't mind the potentially bumpy road ahead one bit.

P.S. I'm sorry my blog crashed your program. No one else has had that problem that I know of but it DOES take awhile to load. I've been learning html (SLOOOOWLY) and I've posted banners and other stuff on there. My computer has been the only thing I have that allows me to use my mind for about 2 years now. I USE it!!!

Just a step at a time, now that you know what your heart is telling you is the best for you, and your child.

I pulled another card for you.
The Page of Pentacles.

something will come along...

Have you ever tried a knot tying spell?
Use the hair from your brush.
Or use cotton string.

Here's a search link

"This too shall pass" is what I keep saying to myself. Not that my thoughts will change but hopefully the sadness of it all will leave soon... and just turn to "acceptance"...for everyone.

It's so sweet of you to take the time for me... a stranger. Bless you...

((Oh and tomorrow, I'm trying the knot spell!))

Thank you,

thank you

1. Your topic: 7 of Swords
2. That which challenges you: 5 of Wands
3. This is how you react or should react: 5 of Pentacles
4. Outcome: Ace of Wands

It seems that this reading has to do with either work or finances.

There seems to be a bit of sneakyness going on, and many are at odds of a decision, or confronting the situation.
Everyone has different opinions, and results they are striving to attain.

Figure the best means by truthfulness, and do not be afraid to ask for help.

Be mindful that your situation is not made out to be worse than it really is, just be honest, and know that resourses are avalible, if you search for them.

(a reiki healing, would be most welcome, do as you see fit.)

ILove

1. Your topic: 3 of Wands
2. That which challenges you: 4 of Wands
3. This is how you react or should react: 9 of Wands
4. Outcome: Ace of Wands

Wow a whole round of Wands!
Lots of firey Mars energy going on here...

You feel that you've put alot into the situation, and now your having to wait, a time of introspection, a going within yourself, to heal and to grow.
Be patient, it's worth it!

I'm thinking it has to do with either homelife, or family in some way, something that means a great deal to you.

Do not despair, and do your best to release any negative vibrations that you carry around inside you.
Sit outside, somewhere quite, and just give those worries to the wind, let them go, bring into yourself, calm and healing vibrations from the earth, and ground yourself with them.
Holding on to anything negative will not get you where your going...

Do not ignore opportunities that come your way.
Once you've gathered yourself back together, there is a gift of will, inspiration, action, passion & courage on the horizon!
Heal, gain strenght, and it shall come!

TWS

1. Your topic: The Hanging Man
2. That which challenges you: The Star
3. This is how you react or should react: 9 of Swords
4. Outcome: Queen of Pentacles

Well, it seems you have just come thru some challenging experience, and are now at peace with it, waiting to see the outcome, though detached in a way.
It's perfectly fine to come to this place in your life, it's kinda strengthing thur patience.
Laying your card on the table, and backing away from it.
There it is, that's how I feel, and that's just the way it is, kinda feeling.

The Star promises hope, keep the hope alive.
It may be what is in front of you now, but something to come.
Dreams are like life, and life is like dreams at times...

You've closed yourself up, or either you are in the state of being bothered form sleeping, by worry of the situation.
Let that go, release the negative vibrations.
Take into yourself positive affrimations. (you can search the web for these, or make up you own.)
The comfort & wisdom you seek are nigh at hand, do not be afraid to open yourself up to it, or reach out for it, it is there.

Be flexable when things don't go your way, let other's be themselves, even if you do not agree with their ways, or actions.
Be open with your feelings, do not gaurd them for protection.

1. career Page of Wands

Put your thoughts into actions.
A message concerning your career is soon coming.

2. love life Page of Pentacles

A young person of an earthy vitality, could be Taurus, Virgo, or Capricorn, may have a bit of a weight problem, but that's just more to love.

Be aware not to become careless.

Alright, I've got to go work in the storage unit.

3. This is how you react or should react: 5 of Cups
4. Outcome: Ace of Wands

You have a fear inside you, it is of your own making.
Do not give up your own power. Take control of your own life.

Be aware of dissatisfaction, this is not the time to be critical of your accomplishments.

There has been a sense of mourning in your life.
Let this go, things just happen.
The reason's we go thru hard times is to experience them, then let them go, so we may grow.

Wow! How very generous of you, GingerB... Tarot has always been something that, in my own experiences of getting a reading, came off as so vague... I don't get that from the reads you have done for others, in this string, though!
Beautiful and, very giving Is having an outlined question vital to a read? I wonder if it is possibly due to my lacking any clear question, that I have had the 'vague' reads...? Just curious

thanks geministone,
Well, these are just short and sweet, fitted into place while taking a break from other things.

Actually, in reading in person, i don't ask anyone to ask a question.
I tell them to concentrate on what they want to know.

I'm kinda free with the cards, and try not to put any type of limitation on them.

With these readings, i just asked the cards to allow us (me & the cards), to help, so & so...

You are such a generous person! Thank you for sharing your energy and gift with me. I will take and use it wisely.

1. Your topic: 3 of Cups
2. That which challenges you: Strength
3. This is how you react or should react: The Devil
4. Outcome: The High Priestess

Your surrounded by people who bring you joy.
Remember to acknowledge, and appreciate them, family & friends.
Rather than focusing on your problems, put more effort into practicing graditude.

Trust your intutition, and natural instinct.
Learn to live and improve your natural gifts.
Be aware of any reckless extremes, in any manner.

You must take your inspiration, and turn it into action.

1. Your topic: Queen of Cups
2. That which challenges you: 5 of Swords
3. This is how you react or should react: The Emperor
4. Outcome: Temperance

Look to the needs of your heart.
Do not let your own emotions, overshadow reality.
It's ok, to be concerned for others, just remember we're all here for experience, and growth, some of that comes from mistakes

Whatever it is that's bothering you, step back, and take a really good, realistic view of it. Maybe look at it from a different viewpoint. Does each stance seem balanced? In the long run, is it worth the effort?

Seek a stable, and well functioning order in your life, and realise sometimes, it's alright to question the patterns that seem to need more answers.
