I'd like to start testing out my own reading skills on here, and have bought a deck of playing cards to start practicing with. If anyone wishes to exchange this reading for one of my practice readings to see if it fits, that would be awesome. If not, I can try reading an astrology or horary chart in exchange, since I've got experience with that.

I usually try not to ask about the same situation too much, but my situation with a guy (N) seems to actually be progressing in the way I want it to lately.. but at the same time, with him it still seems to be two steps forward, half step back.
He was in a short-term relationship with another woman that ended maybe 2 weeks ago that I assume he's still getting over, which could explain the behavior.. Anyway, he's been putting in more effort lately with me than usual and we actually went out for the first time last night.

I was wondering if anyone would be able to do a reading for me in regards to what's going on here? Long or short is fine.. My question is: What should I know about how my relationship with N is progressing?

I do want to quickly note that when I most recently asked whether or not we would end up in a romantic relationship, the card pulled was 3 of cups (which from what I'm told is a very good omen for love/relationships). Any insight is helpful!

Hey Kay I would like to try if you don't mind. Did you get the 3 of Cups before or after he ended his relationship with the other woman?

Okay Kay, reading is ready. So this should cover the next 3 months. First thing that popped up is the ex girlfriend. Yes, I literally went "SIGH..ex gf" outloud..lol. If you want I can e-mail you the cards so I can break them down for you.

Within the next 3 months I sense jealousy happening over his ex, however I'm not sure if the jealousy will come from you, or from her. It seems like someone will try hard to control their jealous emotions, but it may fail. This will be the biggest test for you and N within the next 3 months that I saw sticking up -- and that you should be highly aware of. I do not see that he still has feelings for her, so that's good, but she's still 'lurking in the background' -- maybe not in the physical sense, but I think she will be brought up in conversations that you two may have, and this will just drive you 'mad' - literally. I see jealousy..passion perhaps with some slight anger. You will try your best to control it though. I see a lot of worry about this, but in the end I believe you two will sort this out, and you will stop feeling that way, but that is beyond the 3 month period - so hang in there!

Edit - It could even mean that the ex will be the one 'jealous' of you.

If you want me to e-mail you the cards, please let me know. Good luck. Keep me updated if you can =).

Haha @"sigh-ex gf"! I am curious to see the cards, so please do email me! Is there a way to pm on here? If not, I'll go ahead and post one I don't use often. Also (and you can email me the answer to this if you want to) do you believe the cards are saying we will end up in a relationship? He and I aren't official at the moment, but I believe we will get there within the next month.

Your reading is coming soon.. had to take a breather because I heard some sad news right after I responded to your last post. I'm going to pull your cards now though.

No PM here . Sorry to hear about the bad news . Well, honestly speaking I didn't see the relationship forming within 3 months, it might take longer..[sorry]. It seems you guys need to talk, or will talk more though within that time period.

Okay Empress, I decided to do a 5 card spread. The best way for me to interpret at present is to directly link the playing card meanings to tarot, so I'm going to use the meanings from BiddyTarot as a guideline, and then try to interpret on my own. This is what I got for you when I asked, "What is coming up for EmpressMendez?":

1st card, Past-
9 of Hearts/9 of Cups:
According to this card, you've had a very happy, and perhaps indulgent past.. luck in love, finances, health, etc. Complete satisfaction.

2nd card, Present-
Ace of Clubs/Ace of Wands:
This should be a very creative time in your life. Ace of Clubs tells me that you want to undertake something new.. have you recently become inspired to undertake a new project or pursue a new career? If so, this card is telling you to go for it, and to follow your instincts.

3rd card, Hidden Influences-
8 of Spades/8 of Swords:
Now, I was a little taken back to see this in the hidden influences slot, but paired with the Ace above, it does make sense. It looks as though your thoughts are running wild, or you have too many ideas swirling around in your head that aren't beneficial to you at this time. You have options, so try not to victimize yourself. According to Biddy: "The Eight of Swords can indicate that your interests will be opposed by other people, and this may create restrictions to what it is you want to achieve. Take back your power and realize that you have options whether others oppose you or not. You do not have to be constrained by their way of thinking or their rules."

4th card, Advice-
Knight of Hearts/Knight of Cups:
For this one, I'm just going to put a portion of Biddy's meaning, because I think it said it best: "As with all Court Cards, the Knight of Cups can manifest as an event, a person in your life, or as a part of yourself.

The Knight of the Cups often appears as a messenger, an invitation or the arrival of someone or something with an emotional benefit. He offers an interesting invitation, which will result in an emotional experience that will bring high energy and lift you to an exhilarating state as new situations appear from nowhere. In addition to the physical sources of information, the Knight of Cups can also represent wisdom that comes from your dreams and that helps you to surmount life’s obstacles.

The Knight of Cups represents the undertaking of the creative adventure hinted at in the Page of Cups. Whereas the Page encounters the mystical fish out of the golden cup and is thus initially inspired with creativity, the Knight has already encountered his inspiration and is about to undertake the journey of imagination and creativity to which the unconscious has impelled him. If you are about to start a new creative project, direct your imagination into the ‘real’ world. True imagination feeds on ‘action’ thus if you do nothing with your dreams they will remain vague and unrelated to the rest of your life. The Knight of Cups brings a warning about getting too caught up in fantasy and the romanticism of life. Fantasy excites but it lacks any real meaning as you deny your basic commitment to the world and your imagination produces nothing.

Be open to exploring your passions and your grand ideas at this time. You may find that you have been drawn to a particular passion or hobby and now is the time to start turning into ‘something’."
One again, I feel like this card corresponds with the rest (which is pretty cool!). With this in the 'advice' placement, once again the cards seem to be telling you to make your dreams a reality.

5th card, Outcome-
Ten of Diamonds/Ten of Pentacles:
"As a Ten, the Ten of Pentacles is such a great sign that despite challenges and setbacks along the way, you will finally reach a point of completion and accomplishment in your journey. This sense of accomplishment is likely to be as a result of an improved career path, more solid financial reserves, a stable home environment and a possible committed and long-term relationship. This is one of those cards that shows that everything will eventually come together in a wonderful way and you will feel highly successful and proud of everything you have achieved."
^^another one from Biddy.. once again, I feel like the cards are all saying the same thing. So, all in all, I feel that you'll be entering into a pretty successful period in which you'll be able to achieve success in whatever it is you're thinking about pursuing.
I wasn't sure if this would apply to you at all, but after seeing how all of the cards' meanings linked up nicely, I'm feeling more confident that I may be on to something. Either way, please keep me posted, and thank you for being my first real 'practice reading'! I hope that you're able to find some accuracy in my reading.

Oh, it's okay.. thank you for your kindness. I'd obviously love to have things pick up prior to 3 months for us, but I can be patient if I feel like it's heading there eventually.. I mean, I've waited pretty much since February, so a few more months won't kill me.
Edit: got your email.

Thanks Kay! I really don't try to rely on book meanings, but this made sense when I saw the cards. I guess I'm starting to show up as the Knight of Cups again. I definitely think this is about a new company I started working for, but recently got swamped with other things/projects, so I had to stop for a bit

I guess it's telling me to go for it, and in the end things will be good for me [10 of Diamonds]

But thing is playing cards have a different meaning than Tarot, heeh ,but it still makes sense . Thanks again.

9 of Hearts
Ace of Clubs
8 of Spades
Knight of Hearts
10 of Diamonds

Yes, looks like in the end things will sort themselves out I'll keep you updated

Oh! Haha, sorry about that.. I am learning mostly through my readings online, so I didn't realize they had different meanings.. good to know though. I'll keep that in mind next time.
Either way, I'm happy that they made sense and that you were able to relate them to what's going on with you! Best of luck to you in the meantime!

Yes, don't worry it makes sense anyway. They are somewhat made of each other anyway, lol.

Yes now that I think about it some more this might have been my ex interfering and causing imbalance in both health and my life when he came back in the picture, which didn't allow me to focus on my job. Wow, it makes sooo much sense. Thanks again

Hi Empress!

Interestingly enough, N and I basically stopped talking in early August when I told him I'd met someone else.. he was leaving the area for basic training in late August and I didn't want to continue down the path I was on with him. Long story short, I discovered he'd lied to me about being with his ex for the entire time he and I were involved..although we were never intimate physically, I still felt betrayed in a way and knew I wouldn't be able to fully trust him if we were to ever enter into a real relationship. If he's in contact with his ex, and has mentioned me, it very well could cause her jealousy.. but I've only briefly talked to N once since August, so I'm not really sure.. :-/ Wish I had something better to tell you!
