When the Five of Cups appears in your reading, you are going through a transit of emotional disappointment. The lesson from the Four of Cups is extended to this card, but it also includes an extra layer of regret and loss over a pleasure that you thought you would get a chance to experience.

There is a duality in the Two of Wands that refers to doing a job well and then seeing the benefits. The figure on the Two of Wands card is looking out over a great distance and often is thought of as Christopher Columbus type individual. They are ready before he set sail on the voyage. Often this card comes up when you are feeling distracted. You know that you have tasks at hand and you are not ready to complete them.

When the Three of Cups has a central focus in your reading it is a sign that you are being blessed by a season of success and abundance, for which you can achieve much. This card is a celebratory one. There is no work, only play. Now you have done what you needed to get by and you have some time to relax.

When you have received the Queen of Swords in your reading, you are seen as an assertive perfectionist who is also hyper protective and ambitious. You have ideas that are ruled by the drive of the heart which is what makes you so uniquely you, and someone that others enjoy being around and depending on. You have ideas that are ruled by the drive of the heart which is what makes you so uniquely you, and someone that others enjoy being around and depending on. You are highly informed and an excellent communicator.

The Emperor is the counterpart of the Empress, but where the Empress is care free in her abundance, the Emperor is almost strict with his own form of stability and can symbolize many different things depending on the context in which he represents himself. If you receive this card during a general reading, then the Emperor is going to provide you with a solid, continual energy to benefit your life. He does not leave a lot of room for excess change or random behavior. The Emperor is pragmatic, regal and stately. His energy is full of action and drive, and there is no room for mistakes.

The Hierophant is the ruling power of external religion. It is representative of the need to be accepted by society, of conforming to the norms presented all around us. Sometimes this card is representative of feeling like an outcast, judged by society and sometimes this is the card that represents one’s own desires to be a part of the religious world. The Hierophant expresses that life is your teacher, providing you with lessons to learn for growth opportunities and the understanding that conflicting issues exist for the purpose of bringing new growth into your life.

You are a dedicated, motivated, emotional, tender, sensitive and loving person. The Knight of Cups is symbolic of a younger kind of love, but one that is greatly enhanced by the ability to take action. The Knight is innocent but is maturing, a student of life, he sacrifices for others in his path for wisdom. This is very much the same for you.

The Justice card in a reading is one of the more ‘feared’ cards in the deck.While this can be true, as Justice does symbolize in some forms the legal system or the fine tuning of business; something else to consider is that the Justice card lays everything out for you exactly as you have prepared for it to. While this can be true, as Justice does symbolize in some forms the legal system or the fine tuning of business; something else to consider is that the Justice card lays everything out for you exactly as you have prepared for it to. In essence, the Justice card best illustrates the just Law of Compensation: that which you put out you will receive back tenfold.

The Strength card exemplifies the need for order and discipline in your life at this time. Try to think about the ways in which you are allowing yourself too much excess whether it is drinking, spending, eating, or anything else. Avenues of your life that you are exerting too much energy into right now are going to be exaggerated in your reading in order, which hopefully will bring attention to them and to get you back to a point of balance. Many people when they get this card will be in denial and state that they aren’t engaging in any healthy activities that could cause them any harm.

In all my readings this is a good card to draw. The Empress represents mothering love, an authority figure that is looking out for you and is often a kind guardian.
