4 of pentacles
Tower
2 of swords

Makes me think you are working a lot. Focusing on work more than anything else. Like as in work before love and romantic matters at the moment? With the tower...I hafta wonder if you are planning on switching jobs or departments, changing career, moving, something like that. Bc it feels like a major change is coming. And it may be a little tense for you. I have no idea if I'm right or wrong here (and feedback is appreciated as it helps me) but I feel stress with these cards with the focus being work related. Is any of this making sense to you?

Thank you for allowing me to read for you I would love to hear feedback on whatever does/doesn't resonate with you.

I have no particular area for a question either. Anything I need to know concerning any happenings this summer? I really don't care what area either. I'm not looking for anything specific. Just whatever your cards wanna tell you.

How you want to feel: Queen of Swords (R)
Environment: 5 of Wands
Advice: 6 of Wands
Future outcome: 3 of Swords (clarifier 3 of Cups [r])

Seems like this is going to be a summer of learning for you. I feel like an injustice has been done to you... I want to say romantically, but it feels like work a bit more. Like a partnership that you valued, a team, sort of took advantage of you or cut you out somehow? I dunno. It doesn't feel 100% romantic, but it has that sort of love association. I think it's already happened for sure, and you're already dealing with it, and that's good. Temperance says that there's a balance in your emotions, how you are handling it.

You're moving on, but it is tough, I think. The 8 tells me that while perhaps you've dealt with the situation, you haven't dealt with the way it made you/is making you feel. The 9 of Cups is a wish card, to be sure... but also a card about proudly displaying who we are and what we want. A brave face maybe. A "nothing can hurt me" attitude in front of these people?

The Queen of Swords reversed tells me you've be wronged too, and that it's taking a toll. 5 in the environment... lots of busy work. Lots of hustle. Relocation maybe? Somebody's moving out?

The advice is to be strong. Be proud of who you are and what you've done. I feel like in a lot of ways, you cut the snake's head off. You stopped the injustice, and now you are dealing with it. But be sure you let yourself feel whatever the pain is... that will be important. I think this is asking you to be okay with it affecting you.

I get all the pain from the 3 of Swords with the 3 of Cups reversed. This combo is always an affair for me, or at least, cheating. I think this spread is asking you, this summer, to deal with the feelings associated with this... and you'll be better for it. Justice and Temperance are majors; this is a karmic lesson you have to learn to become who you were meant to be, both in and out of this life.

I hope any of this is right!! Please tell me if not. I'm much like you; I love feedback. How can you get better if nobody points out your mistakes? As far as my reading went... nicely done. Very spot on. Lots of work stuff going on, and hopefully, a productive job change. We'll see. I feel guilty, because I'm burned out, and I want to worked harder, but I'm tired.

I just have a specific question, it is pretty simple.

posted June 18, 2013 05:54 PM            

will you: page of wands
why/why not: ace of swords

can it change: 3 of cups
why/why not: death

because it's a page and an ace, i think it's possible. it's a question of passion meeting practicality though. still in the early stages of development as far as the follow through goes. it's been established that this is what one or both of you wants; the page makes me think you two are getting closer to the act, but the ace is holding someone back a little. maybe because of the 3 of cups reversed... a lot of times for me that means there's a 3rd party involved. either one of you was with someone recently, and you're leaving them for this person, or this will happen if you to engage in romantic activity.

The 2 and the Tower back to back scare me though. Like there's going to be some major decision that's going to change things for the worse... did you feel that? The Tower generally strikes me as a good thing, but here... it seems a little wonky and bad. Also, thank you so much for reading for me!!

Sigh...I KNEW there was someone who read for me awhile back and I've been sitting here searching trying to find it. I am so sorry I didn't get a chance to respond sooner. I remember reading it but didn't have time right at that second to respond. I meant to reply later on but I've been busy with the kids being out of school and I just started another job and I never got around to it. I'm so sorry! Better late than never lol

Has an unjustice been done to me? There's always some kind of injustice being done to me lol Story of my life. I understand why you would pull temperance. Yes I am learning to balance my emotions. That's been a hard lesson for me but I'm getting there. I'm so senstive I take the injustices to heart when really the truth is I'm not in control of anyone's actions except my own. I've had to learn to stop trying to 'own' the injustice, thanks to low self esteem I always thought I deserved it in some way. No more I don't give as much as I used to. When you're a giver, it tends to attract those that seek to take advantage of it lol Just needed to set limits/boundaries. Perhaps this is what temperance is about. Has it taken its toll as you stated? Yes. I won't lie. My significator is actually the queen of swords. I used to identify more with the queen of pentacles but my mindset has significantly changed. Yes I've been wronged plenty of times...and now I find it hard to be as open with others, trust is no longer naively given, its earned. It takes a lot of will power on my part and controlling my thoughts to keep myself from being a man hater lol I don't think that's fair to punish all the men out there for what a few have done...but I do have this lack of trust now.

Lots of busy work? Oh goodness yes lol I've been off this past week thank goodnes but my new job is very physically demanding for me. I've got the bruises all over my legs to prove it lol I hope they rotate me more then they have been.

I'm not sure about the 3 of swords/3 of cups r just yet. We'll see how that plays out this summer.

Just felt a major change coming for you and it felt like a shock but yet necessary. I don't view the tower as a 'bad' card to begin with. The 2 is what made me feel the stress. In my deck, the 2 of swords shows a woman that is blindfolded and unsure of which path to take and she is stressed about this, as it creates an impasse for her. So perhaps you will be unsure of which way to go/how to proceed when the tower comes. Keep me posted....if you remember lol Sorry it took so long for my feedback!

No problem at all! Life comes first, especially before internet strangers

So FUN FACT. THE TOWER STRUCK LAST WEEK. I was all rip-roaring and set-up to accept a position at the University I've been attending grad school at (a position I'd been told by a friend on the hiring committee that I had received...) AND TADA!! They changed the policy, and I DIDN'T. Almost everyone I know didn't. Some old hats who had been there for 6+ years too.

Second fun fact, I have no idea what to do or where to go. I applied for a 100 jobs, both in and out of academia, but I'm terrified and stressed. This economy is a nightmare, and as of September, I am out of job. Hard. Not to mention my last two paychecks are reduced pay...

It was extremely shocking and upsetting, and I am coping with it as best I can (idle hands are the devil's play)... I just really do hope it was necessary. Someone on this site was sweet enough to read for me right after it happened, and they said the same thing. It was divine intervention and had to be done.
