Any spreads you did for yourself and others, that impressed you? Memorable spreads?From a reader's POV or otherwise, because of what happened? Please share. I rarely ask about myself and my own issues, my cards are mostly devoted to others But yesterday I asked if the special someone misses me and got a lovely spread I want to share: Queen of Swords Temperance Moon 10 of Pentacles King of Swords Feel free to give an interpretation or insight if and when you feel like it. ------------------ I seem to have loved you in numberless forms...

Both Temperance and the Moon are connected with the Hierophant. The lessons of the Hierophant, learned before, we need, to find our balance in Temperance. To find our balance in our Female and Male Archetypes and effects in Life. To find the balance between Feelings and Thoughts. The perfect mixture of Gold and Silver (on other XIV cards one chalice is silver (Moon-Female) and the other Gold (Sun-Male) The lessons through the lilies and the Roses of the Hierophant, taught us How to mix the uppermost holy water on XIV. The Mixture of the female and the Male, as Waite states: the angel is both Male and Female. Maybe the Moon, we can connect in this insight, with the 15 Yods, The Heavenly sperm, needed for the Union of the Male and the Female. ........
-Temperance and the Moon and the Paths on the Tree of Life Samekh is the 25th path between Tipharet(6) and Yesod(9). A path on the Middle Pillar. The Path from the Sun to the Moon. The Path from The Fire of The Sun to The Water of the Moon(Albano XIV , Temperance is depicted with a Rainbow). The Path from Male to Female and from Female to Male. (The Union of the Male-Female) The path of Beauty of foundation and the Path of Foundation of Beauty. Qoph is the 29th path between Netzach(7) and Malkuth(10). A path from and off the pillar of mercy to the Middle Pillar. The Path from Venus to Earth. The path of the Morning and Evening star to the Elements. The path of Victory of Kingdom and Kingdom of Victory. The Moon rules our earthly waters, in the oceans, in our bodiess, in our cells. It rules the Sperm of Man and the fluids of the females which are needed to create New Life so the Union of Female an Male in the new-born life will be possible. -Temperance Male and Moon Female On XIV The Sun Symbol on the head of the angel, the Moon is located on the same place on XVIII. The Sun, Symbol of our Father ( the Angel of Temperance is Both female as male, but the Sun is the symbol of our Father) and the Moon, Symbol for the Womb, The Waters of The Mother. Our Heavenly and Earthly Creators. Also XIV is Sagittarius, a Male mutable Fire Sign and XVIII is connected to Pisces a Female mutable Earth Sign. ......
When we experience the Moon we might “fall back” on Temperance in order the feel the message of the Moon. ------------------ I seem to have loved you in numberless forms... AstroMandala Summer Readings IP: Logged |

Lee,this spread is flanked by the Queen of Swords to the left and the King of Swords to the right, which is you and him, the King and the Queen, of swords thou, so you both are pretty strong tenacious unyielding heads. Just this alone speaks of attachment to each other but unwilling to make the first step, out of pride, hence - the longing feeling/missing each other. 10 of pents is to his side, to the King - he may have family obligation ( pents) elsewhere which may make him feel stuck and unable to make a move. Temperance is to your side, next to the Queen, which means you are waiting and reflecting. Moon is in the middle - the dreamy and fantasy card. He does miss you a lot, in his mind. IP: Logged |

Thank you, Orange, nice interpretation! He is making moves that I don't accept for now.The most beautiful part here, apart from the pair, of course, is the path of the Moon: Moon represents the gate of longing and flowing emotions between two people, in the context. They are eternal, with Temperance (time) and 10 of Pentacles (a card for eternity, everlasting). Temperance is my current Life Stage card, so it is mixed with evertyhing important to me. On his side, there is probably planning and looking for the best solution in regards to us, a final one (10 of pentacles "looking for a solution that will last") the family card also points to missing someone like they are part of your family, your tribe, a very strong bond...my side is more "artistic" so to speak. ------------------ I seem to have loved you in numberless forms...

I've been noticing something amazing lately, doing lots of readings. No matter the question, if you have a more complex spread, if you put the cards from 1 to the last together, in a lineup, they seem to show the STORY of the matter/relationship and extrapolating, its possible evolution.It's like a film script. Giving as example Enneline's last spread for me, the karmic one. The string is this: Magician 4 of sw (rev) Knight of Swords Star (getting together around the time my father suddenly passed away one night , extensive internet communication, and many other things apply here, the interaction between us on many levels) - the past/present seems to end here then we have King of Wands 10 of Cups 3 of Pentacles Queen of Cups Queen of Swords Magician Knight of Wands Empress - this looks like a huge gathering of people, maybe in relation to my exhibition/project then 10 of Cups 6 of pentacles Queen of Pentacles King of Pentacles 5 of Wands Ace of Wands - which remains to be seen Can you put together your spreads as a story ( a string of cards) and see if it resonates with what I'm saying? I have been noticing this over and over again. ------------------ I seem to have loved you in numberless forms...

you are killing me Wow, so a spread put together can show a movie?! WOW! Never thought that since a spread consists of different questiosn. But you really seem to be right. What is to be seen: I see a come together, forgiving, the queen & the king is a couple and the wands are the discussions but not necessarily bad ones, more of "speaking out what is on your heart" IP: Logged |

It looks like a theme of fighting and winning and possibly a new beginning, especially since 5 of wands + ace of wands means 6 of wands. I would love to see some of your "movies" I noticed that by doing spreads for others or myself. When people give feedback, looking back at the spread I can see that not only it answers the question, but it also has this other level of showing the "movie' of the matter/ relationship. Literal chain of events, the "history" of the matter, so to speak. IP: Logged |

Isn't the ace the very first card? So Ace of wands must be something about new beginning. I once asked what happened to a casual love interest: 7 of cups king of wands lovers 7 of swords -> the adventurous guy was indulging himself in illusions but then he was falling in love and slipped away IP: Logged |

when i got a new project offer: unexpected joy, widow, some money (or was it gift?) -> out of the blue (unexpected joy) the woman (widow) was offering a project (gift or some money). Ridiculously accurate IP: Logged |

7 of cups king of wands lovers 7 of swords -> the adventurous guy was indulging himself in illusions but then he was falling in love and slipped away oh WOW so it does tell the whole story and then the project offer not only answered you timing question, but also showed the movie of events OK, another example: this spread of yours, about my current project which was supposed to start in june how will the project develop: Queen of wands, 5 of pents and page of swords -> of course an enthusiastic beginning. But I "saw" you and your partner leaving the path, maybe you need to change your plans. I see a change, some discussions with your partner, maybe even tears. I def. see a re-creation and this one will be for good. outcome: 7 of wands, clarification card: queen of pents -> some struggling, some delays, some fights but the queen of pents shows that you will be able to stand on your ground. what you need: 2 of cups -> emotional cooperation; understanding each other, respecting each other heart's desire what you need to be aware of: judgment -> maybe your partner is not very sure if he/she wants to continue- that was my first thought. Another look and I saw the angel and this with combination of 2 of cups tells me again, that you really need to listen to your inner guidance, inspiration, flow. parallel to the sections you asked (what I need, what I should be aware of etc.), the history and the movie of the project is here queen of wands ( I am the one who proposed the project in the first place + the project was planned and initiated) 5 of pents page of swords (the partner had some money issues and had to postpone) 7 of wands ( despite our personal problems, each of us had, we both fought to restart it somehow) queen of pents ( the partner received some money from a lady and was able to solve his financial issues) 2 of cups judgment ( we got together and started the project, called each other and finally got together to do it, and judgment also shows the project is ongoing; also we work on it mostly on night when everyone wakes up - judgment - we go to sleep lol) IP: Logged |

Apart from this obvious fact - that you are a genius lol - I think when we draw cards (images) no matter the question, the cards show the chain of events, the history and the movie of the matter. It's like a button you push in those archives. I don't think emotional connection matters here; for example, I noticed while doing many readings here or otherwise people gave feedback for, that my cards at least, pick a LOT on what the other person in thinking. Just to give an example, I think it was with MineAgain: she was thinking which fruit she liked, out of two fruits, my cards picked on both fruits,on her thought process, not her final decision. It's as if the connection is made through thoughts. Another example: while doing the physical attributes thread, and guessing someone's appearance, I got two cards showing someone being a bit more round (Hierophant and Empress, I think). The person I was reading for was just thinking, those days, that she gained weight (in her eyes, you know how relative these things are and was worrying about it) BUT without being plum in itself. So the cards picked on her feeling round, her thoughts, rather than actually being it. Quite awesome! IP: Logged |

This is a very interesting confirmation, IMO, that the power of thought trumps matter, and that reality is more or less a creation of our ways of thinking. Reality is fluid and follows the trail of our thoughts. Thoughts have huge power of manifestation.IP: Logged |

This is interesting, Dani however, I am thinking the snake here could be a bit of a warning lol luring you in...but I guess it is suitable for being "converted" to a religion.I am being subjective here, I am allergic to religions and cults, I mean to being part of one. It's just the way I am though, not that is anything wrong with that, in general. ------------------ I seem to have loved you in numberless forms... AstroMandala Summer Readings IP: Logged |

LeeLoo2014, I understand you... I was like this, but I may tell you that I like to go there. I'm not a fanatic, and things are going to me very well. Sure, the snake could be a warning sign, but I see this one as the priestess, as I'm the snake card in Leno too!! Leno throws in your face all the time! Hahhaha!! I saw the spread, but I didn't understood until I returned home that day! Another thing I remember that was very very memorable is when I was pulling a lot Knight of Cups in the weeks before I met my ex-boyfriend... I can't remember the other cards, but I fear when I get this Knight now..

I was just thinking to start a thread discussing tarot combinations, but this one is in that spirit. My post is about the QUEEN SWORDS and KING SWORDS together.I just did a reading for myself asking whether I should go ahead and post my work somewhere online. I got QUEEN SWORDS, KING SWORDS, FOOL. I interpreted this as "take a leap of faith and you'll receive justice for your work." Then I asked "what should I expect if I post my work there?" I got (surprise) QUEEN SWORDS, 4 WANDS, KING SWORDS, DEATH. It's rare for me to get the same cards twice in a row, even if the questions are similar. I guess in this case (career wise) the couple of swords together would point out to a go-getter situation in which you must uphold the highest standards. Or possibly meeting a person who is very active and rightful. Alternatively, I found the king of swords explained as "making your peers look bad" the the queen of swords, "potential to presenting yourself well," which is twofold "you'll do well in this situation." The DEATH had me worried a little, but it may mean the end of my current situation, which isn't peachy. Anyways, I have no feedback whether I'm right, as I just did this reading, but I can update in a couple of weeks. IP: Logged |

No, it doesn't deal with a couple, though it's about someone fighting back the (evil). Metaphorically it's about women and other abused people fighting for their rightful place in the world and not letting themselves be cowered. Thank you for pointing out this aspect. I didn't think about it. IP: Logged |

In this case, if it's about women and abuse, for me this particular pair is very fit here, it makes total sense. I think the first spread says Yes, as you said. then the second may say: women will like you project, and support it, men won't. As a possible first thought. Is there something with a touch of misandry in your project? but again, it doesn't have to be, these things are wrongly interpreted this way anyway, in many cases. Also, is the platform male or female oriented? IP: Logged |

No, no, there is no misandry in that project! Some of the abused folks are males. I didn't present this project either as female or male oriented, but you are right so far I've receive positive response *only* from women. IP: Logged | |
