I'm in the mood to do a few exchanges again, if anyone else is up for it. I need to flex my 'psychic' muscles, haha. I'll take as many questions as I can.

Sure, I'll get on that now.

My question: What will happen if I attend an event I've been considering going to on this upcoming Thursday night [9/4]? I.e., will it be an overall positive or negative experience?

Cards work fine for me, but if you'd rather do an astro event chart I can work with either.

OK, I'll see what insights I get about that!

My question: Will I meet anyone [romantically] in the upcoming month and what will this person be like? I have the sense I might, but I'm not 100%.

@athenagoddess

How U feels about you: 4 of Cups/Lovers Rx/Temperance Rx/Ace of Swords Rx/10 of Swords Rx

How you feel about U: 6 of Cups/Magician/Knight of Swords/Page of Cups rx

Interpretation: I get the sense that you and U have been together before or you had some hook-ups. You two have some kind of longstanding emotional history, maybe some failed attempts at getting together. Overall, U feels that you two aren't extremely compatible. He isn't looking for love, he may not understand your advances toward him. His 4 of Cups to your 6 of Cups possibly indicates you're trying to re-enter his life OR your sweetness and affection aren't being understood by him. He may be too self-involved or think that it couldn't work in the long run as evidenced by the Lovers and Temperance both reversed. You see him as someone charismatic and you'd like to give it a go but the reversed Page of Cups indicates that intuitively you may feel that 'block' coming from him and you're unsure about where to go with this, if it will mean anything or develop further.

The presence of the Knight of Swords shows that you need to re-evaluate or analyze your emotions and not fancy U too much at the moment since all signs point to him not wanting to have a relationship. Mainly in general, but also because of some rocky history you two may have or a feeling of just being on the wrong page. I hope it doesn't disappoint you, but I pulled cards twice and they both came up very similarly each time. Your spirit guides are definitely emphasizing some kind of imbalance - one of you [more likely you] cares more than the other person and it's not exactly the best mix of personalities for true love.

Knight of Wands
Queen of Coins
Four of Cups

Looks like it would be kinda exciting at first if you go to this event. I don't know if you would be going with someone who represents the Queen of Coins, or if this is you. If she is you, you would be very appealing to people and maintain an air of dignity. But i think as the night proceeds you would get awfully bored by your surroundings. Surrounded by much but not all that interested anymore as when you first arrived. All in all, it wouldn't be a bad experience, but if you passed you wouldn't be missing out on anything either.

We don't have a history of hooking up. We have only met twice in person...

I can do an event chart as well. What is the time and place of the event?


I'm really confused about him not being interested. Because I feel like he is always focused on me and is trying to control me astrally.


Can you just ask if he is trying to control me astrally as well?

@cherful24

1. How you feel about moving/going forward:

a) Sun Rx/4 of Swords rx/10 of Cups rx/7 of Wands rx
b) 8 of Pentx Rx/2 of Swords rx/4 of Pents rx/ 9 of Pents rx/6 of Wands/8 of Swords/Queen of Cups/2 of Wands Rx

2. How you'd feel about Urbana/hiring prospects: 3 of Cups rx/5 of Cups rx/6 of Cups rx/the Magician

3. How you'd feel about Wash. U/hiring prospects: King of Pents/3 of Wands/4 of Wands rx

Interpretations:

1. In a), we can see that at this time in you're life you probably feel somewhat unhappy with your surroundings. There's some sort of sense of discontent that is making you want to expand your boundaries. I sensed family/personal issues in relation to some career setbacks. Almost as if you feel you're not 'belonging' where you are now. The 4 of Swords asks you not to get too anxious or overworked in your desire to move ahead. Your guides will help you with the right path - it'll fall into place. In b), which is your general feel about the move [career, location], you may be suffering some financial setbacks and you fear worse if you potentially choose the wrong place to work. Financial security is your big aim right now. Your guides are asking you to remain calm and clear sighted in your objectives. The potential for change lies within. Deep down, you know the best path for you to take to move ahead from whatever setbacks you're encountering now - you may worry it won't work out, but it will.

2. I sense that the better of the two prospects is Wash. U. First of all, you'll be more financially secure there. It seems less far away than Urbana from your current location. Having a good support network is important to you. You may be reluctant about leaving certain things behind, whether it's a good friend or multiple friends, some connections you made in your current location, etc. At Wash. U, your biggest challenge will be integrating yourself, getting to know the local spots and more importantly setting yourself up at home. I don't sense any major difficulties, it's just a big shift that demands you to focus on integrating yourself into the community for a better sense of 'home'.

With Urbana, I sense some emotional upsets. Though usually a clearheaded person, you may have strong feelings about this. You may not like how you feel socially estranged for some period of time at Urbana. I feel like you'll be starting over from square one, but not in as positive of a way with Wash. U.

Overall, I get the sense you're more likely to be hired at Wash. U, and although the transition may not be 100% easy, you'll more likely enjoy your time there more than at Urbana, location-wise and in terms of financial security. I hope this was accurate, since I don't do these kinds of readings very often. :')

Sure, I can ask that too. Sorry if I was off at all, that's weird... the cards indicated either show that there's some kind of history that's been complicated, or just a sense that things might not go as planned. Do you feel like you are the one who is perhaps less interested? 4 of Cups kept coming up strong and I had strong feelings about the card appearing.

I did pull Judgment Rx, the World and Knight of Swords Rx, so now that I'm intuiting the situation again, I'm getting the sense that maybe he tries to feign disinterest at times but he can actually be a manipulative[ish] person in terms of how he's directing his energy. Judgement Rx is Scorp ill-dignified. The Knight of Swords in combination with this card could point to some kind of potential mental manipulation on an emotional/spiritual or potentially astral plane.

Edit: Here is the event chart w/ my natal chart as synastry. The event's info is on the outside, I'm on the inside.

Yes thats the sense i get as well.

I'm very sensitive and ever since we met (and I could tell he was extremely interested in me) I've been feeling his presence so strongly like he watches every little thing i do and he has the ability to do these things as well.

But he is very manipulative and is acting like he isn't interested in me and doesn't know what I'm talking about. But I've already talked to two remote viewers (one works for the government) and they said yes he is and its because he is very interested in me.

This situation sucks. And i can't get away from him. He wasn't even my type, but now I think I'm in love with him and this is exactly how he wants it to be I'm sure.

Anyway, thank you Sweet!

HEY SS! Got your email, will reply tomorrow when I'm less tired. But I can still exchange if that's okay with you? Can you tell me if / how my social life will increase this fall? I'm not going to school this semester and I feel calm right now about having pretty much no friends (I kind of cut them all off in my head) so I'm wondering who they will be replaced with and whatnot.

No worries! Take your time. I'd love to exchange - I'll definitely focus on your question and see what comes up for your new social life/transitioning to school.

A question I had: What is holding me back from writing my first book and how can I get past this block? I need some insights about how I can give myself a creative 'boost' and be a little productive, so to speak...I really don't know what's holding me back. :'/

Sorry I was a little off...honestly I did feel a bit 'rusty' lately so I'm glad we could converse and I could help you find some insights into this. I'm a bit tired tonight too. Thanks for reading the event chart, I added it above and I hope it's OK, let me know if that's the correct/best format for you to work with!

With the clarifying cards, I did get the sense that he is a kind of underhanded person. I totally misconstrued it and that was my mistake - you're the one who doesn't want a relationship. It's very clear to me now. Whenever I see Judgment Rx come up in terms of a person's disposition I cringe. He isn't the kind of guy you want in your life. I think the appearance of the Swords cards shows that some boundaries need to be drawn by you openly communicating that you need space, etc...kind of let it wane gradually, he'll try to hold on and it will be worse if you try to cut it off cold turkey.

Even if you think you're in love with him, Judgment Rx shows some serious manipulations of feeling and with the World, he may be dominating your 'world' right now so to speak. I can see the tarot cards playing out literally sometimes and this works. I just don't get a good sense of energy here. Definitely an imbalance.

The event chart shows moon in Capricorn with Taurus Asc in your 5th house. So it would be good for you to go and try to have some fun. Moon in Capricorn make harmonious aspects to your chart, so you wouldn't be heavily disappointed in anyway.

Thats Mars/Saturn I feel is something more long term you have been dealing with.

I say go to the event!

As I said before, worse that will happen is you will be bored. Lol.

Thanks for the insights! I think I will try to go, it seems like I'll enjoy it but I just wanted to make sure. Maybe the Cap Moon will be grounding to me. No emotional upsets. That's a good thing obviously, haha... it's kind of an intense situation and I expect it to be a little odd [long story] but it's adventurous and I think I want to be adventurous. Yeah, Mars conj. Saturn is going to be a big thing I'll have to deal with long term especially because of where it's at in my chart...

Just a question, do you think Mars transiting my 12th now is bad for meeting someone? Because with the event at hand, I might meet someone romantically there [again long story lol], I just don't want to run into any 'shady' characters and I'm not sure how I feel about being vulnerable to anyone with Mars going through my 12th the night of the event.

Hi

Washington is further away. I thought I had a good chance to get that job however I haven't heard from HR and I know they're also looking at other candidates.

I do the same position but have a job in Urbana but it would be a step up same school just different location. But I would probably feel more isolated in Urbana. Financially this would have paid the most

The thing you said about how I currently am feeling is correct


Thanks!!

.... Would you meet someone for more than just several dates.... I'm getting a no...sorry

But hey i could be wrong. If you're just content with a date or two or three that I can see the possibility are you setting yourself up for friends setting you up or something like that it just don't think it's going to last longer than a handful of dates

with Mars transiting your 12th, I don't want to say its 'bad' but what it will be is secret sexual attraction that will not come to light. either someone will be too shy, or circumstances just aren't going to allow it to be a real fulfilling relationship. however that may change when mars leaves your 12th.

I'm too tired to list all the cards but I'll still go in-depth in my explanation. X')

You're going to go through a total shift in energy. You'll be in more social situations, more outgoing, etc. with time. Initially you may be wary of trusting others, I feel like your recent relationships have definitely spoken to you cutting off others [I got Justice rx and 2 of cups rx] and your spirit guides are telling you to make sure to be positive and warm in your self-expression so you can attract a good new base of friends at school.

Look out for intellectual characters and seek out intellectually stimulating friendships. You're probably apt to encounter Gem/Aqua/Libra in your new location [pulled queen of swords] and this really speaks to your desire to have more intellectual/cerebral relationships. You'll definitely attract those kinds of characters with the new aura you'll be exuding! That's good news. Make sure to be open and seize friendship opportunities, just be clear sighted in your objectives in what kinds of friendships you want and those people will gravitate to you. Your guides are telling you to make sure to 'put yourself out there' to try to get past the crappy social problems you've been having. Ace of swords came up so be keen and don't trust TOO easily but also make sure to let people in when it feels right.

Strength RX 4 of Cups RX 7 of Wands RX

Okay from this I feel you're kind of all over the place when it comes to writing your first book. You're not confident in your ideas which makes you open to other ones but then you aren't sure which ones to nix. I think you may ask other people for ideas to brainstorm but then get overwhelmed by how great they think THEIR idea would be for you. You need to get a clearer, more detailed picture of who will be reading your book before you begin writing as I feel you're more concerned about the audience than self-expression overall.

How you can get past this block:

Ace of Cups rx The Hierophant rx 9 of Pentacles

You don't have to do it all by yourself, and you should be more patient and understanding towards yourself. When you get frustrated and feel blocked it shuts your creativity down, and a lot of that also comes from your intuition. You should think outside the box and believe in yourself more, believe that you have something valuable to say and this should help release all that tension you've got going on. Form some weird ritual before you write and complete it each time. Even if what you write is nonsensical at first it will spur the idea for the core about the subject you want to write about.

That's a-OK, nothing to be sorry about. I'll see what happens but honestly I don't expect love until after my Saturn return, haha. But yeah, I'm honestly open to just meeting new people and going on dates, so that's not bad news. Maybe through the dates I can make new friends which is actually my #1 focus right now so good job picking up on that! Also, I'm glad my reading was accurate and highlighted some truths for you.

I hope everything goes well in your transition to your new job! I'm sure you'll get hired one way or the other, I did have a good sense about Wash. U but Urbana isn't out of the picture, obviously. Just keep at it, show your interest for both. I did get a sense of isolation w/ Urabana because of the 5 of Cups and 3 of Cups rx but you would definitely be able to pull through if you got the job. It's just temporary sadness that can be abated eventually. :')

Ok, that makes sense...maybe things will change when Mars transits my 1H. It's kind of up in the air honestly, I did some readings for myself and I feel that my energies are 'undecided' if that makes sense... I kind of had the premonition I might meet someone at this event but whether it goes anywhere after Mars finishes transiting the 12th is another story. Happened to me before where I broke up w/ someone after Mars finished cycling through the 12th so we'll see.

I think you may ask other people for ideas to brainstorm but then get overwhelmed by how great they think THEIR idea would be for you. You need to get a clearer, more detailed picture of who will be reading your book before you begin writing as I feel you're more concerned about the audience than self-expression overall.

How you can get past this block:

Ace of Cups rx The Hierophant rx 9 of Pentacles

You don't have to do it all by yourself, and you should be more patient and understanding towards yourself. When you get frustrated and feel blocked it shuts your creativity down, and a lot of that also comes from your intuition. You should think outside the box and believe in yourself more, believe that you have something valuable to say and this should help release all that tension you've got going on. Form some weird ritual before you write and complete it each time. Even if what you write is nonsensical at first it will spur the idea for the core about the subject you want to write about.


Thank you. This was amazingly spot-on. I'll really take all your advice to heart and try to form some weird ritual, LOL. X') I mean I think that will actually really help me, I just need to sit down and write for a little bit each day. I'm not really confident in my ideas either, I get blocked and frustrated mentally with them very easily [thanks 3H Saturn *facepalm!*] so I think I need to listen to my intuition more about what will work best for the book...no easy task but it will give me direction.

I just don't have a target audience yet and I want it to be concretely successful and possibly on a larger scale so yes, the audience is really important to me. Sometimes however, I worry too much about how it will be received and that can impede my writing...so I gotta strike a balance between what the audience likes and what I think is good. Very difficult but I'll work on changing my thinking little by little. Thanks again!
