I have been just the tiniest bit swept off my feet but I haven't by any means forgotten about this arrangement we made

So I've done your question about your thesis so far and will totes get round to doing the other two over the weekend

So far I've got this

7 swords crossed by ace of wands
Page of pents above
Queen of swords below
Magician on the left
5 cups on the right
Hanged man - 2 cups - king of swords - 8 cups

I haven't really seen anything like this before

So it seems you've got two main drives - your wish to take the shortcut and secure yourself an easy pass mark for this module and a surge of enthusiasm about a certain theme you're willing to explore, sort of requiring a lot of your energy.

The queen of swords in this case stands for your curiosity and intellectual preoccupations, you might have actually made this your priority. This theme means a lot to you, like it has the potential of things opening up to you. However if you stick to whatever your approach currently is you might first reaiise you've been doing it wrong and then whatever the outcome and the mark you get it will have proven a waste of time, you'll never come back to it again

The advice to draw from this would be to let it ripen a bit more thoroughly ( as in the hanged man), let ideas accumulate, perhaps strategise a little bit and consider how else you could benefit from exploring whatever you're writing about. The page of pents clearly indicates that if you think outside the box that the module framework offers you might be on to something exciting (not right away, more in a beginning-to-see-the-light kind of way), academically or perhaps professionally or otherwise.

I also feel that the king of swords is whoever is gonna mark your thing and might become a factor in how you work on it. Conceivably you have to decide in what way this influence is beneficial and in what way it is not.

Basically I'd suggest investing your energy with caution and keep yr eyes peeled for whatever might contain something more than just a potential line in your bibliography. And yeah if something starts feeling wrong I think you will be able to figure out how to get it right

I will post the other 2 from your thread in this one as well if that's all right

Wishing you a good weekend

The part about 2 main drives is probably talking about me juggling internship and thesis. They are usually taken on separate terms, but seeing as I'm an irregular student and have a few credits remaining to fill, they allowed me to take them at the same time, so that I may graduate a year early. So it is the easy way out, in a sense. Your reading is valuable advice, and will definitely take it to heart.

Now on to the one about you and B, if he'll get in touch within a few months

4 cups crossed by 4 pents
Sun above
King of swords below
Strength on the left
Knight of wands on the right
10swords - queen of cups - the hermit - 10 pents

Well with those 4s describing the present I imagine you're almost convinced the situation will never change. Whatever happened it depresses you very much, and well this is further reinforced by that fear of being on your own and listening to platitudes such as that being on your own is actually beneficial and an invaluable stage in learning lessons, all that hypocritical song and dance. Supposedly B is not really a feelings person, and can act sort of authoritarian, willing to inflict pain if he considers it well deserved or withholding sympathy/rewards if this is what he deems right. It might have been that you learned a lot from him and this excruciating strategy of his.

Knight of wands does promise news BUT it might be out of a sudden desire to become passionate/whimsical/fiery/driven by impulse. How permanent this is likely to be no one can say. If the king of swords is also a stage as opposed to the predominant state of mind/organization of the soul then well chances are higher, but still people don't change overnight, at any rate these core things about people don't. Having said all that looks like through this news things between you and B will get blissful and harmonious, security and joy will prevail, so it's a definite yes. I can't really see anything you might be able to change, the choice will have to be made once he makes all his moves.

And yes let me look at the other romance-related options in 2013

Knight of cups crossed by the king of cups
High priestess above
Ace of cups below
Ace of wands on the left
Knight of pents on the right
7 cups - wheel - star - death

Hmmmmm

Courtship and a man who literally lives off feelings, water energy potentially. You have both life in your body and love to give, perfect combo. You might be progressing towards meeting this person but something is kind of not letting you see things clearly. You might be deluded re: what it is that you're looking for or even re: what part of your soul should be cultivated so you could choose a lover on this basis. With the wheel it gives me the impression like you're fumbling through a labirynth of opportunities without being able to press ctrl+z and try again. Lovers that come round will depend of how you handle this 7 cups situation.

You might discover that love is not what you thought it was or totally belong to a person you haven't had any feelings for so far. And you'll be feeling very beautiful and desirable if this happens. But proceed with caution, remembering who you are and with a clear (Virgo clear so to say) idea what you are expecting to find

Thank you for these, as they touch greatly on the situation.

About B,

He did contact me a couple of nights ago unexpectedly! The thing is that last month, I felt like I've finally 'paid my end of the deal' and learned whatever I had to regarding this situation. It's an unrequited love you see (he's in a relationship). I've learned to let go and accept things as they are (tamed my inner lion as they say). So yes, I do felt like the situation will never change anymore and have finally laid it to rest, and even if there would be any changes, it would have to come from his end this time. He's Leo Sun, Pisces Moon, and is far from authoritarian. Many consider him as frail and wimpy. lol though very enthusiastic and intellectual, he does fit the King of Swords/Knight of Wands persona. He's quite sensitive being a Piscean moon and rising, but has the tendency to intellectualize/rationalize, sometimes even block his feelings because he can feel almost too much about everything.

I guess my stability was shaken when I had another precognitive dream about him, it usually happens then he would contact me out of the blue. Truly enough, he did. I thought the connection we shared had already died... seems like it's not over. *shrugs* Let time be the judge... Which brings us to the next reading you gave.

Several readers had also picked up on new developments regarding my love life, which is always good news! I just dislike stewing on that murky pool I had to deal before, so if changes are afoot, then bring it on! lol the confusion part was probably regarding B, I thought the connection ended, but the fact that I still got shaken up may only be because I still feel a lot for him. Anyhow, I'll remember your words. Will channel my inner Virgo Mercury and be clear about what I want.

"I think there is one more pending and it will not keep itself waiting."

That's very interesting! I'm not entirely sure if I understand, but it sort of makes sense and it had put a smile on my face.
