Celtic Cross

If you have received the Nine of Wands in your reading you will be receiving a strength of vision that you never thought was possible in the past. You are making the right choices for yourself. You have gained much knowledge from what you have been through and now you must establish a certain level of mastery. As a part of this mastery over your reality, you must hear what others have to say so that you can gain multiple perspectives which will help you make better decisions, choose better roads to cross and will teach you a tremendous amount about yourself.

When the Four of Swords appears in your reading your ability to negotiate circumstances that are not to your liking is magnified tenfold. You are a flexible person; you wish to have a commitment in you life that stays in balance, which is not fluid. A knight lies in effigy upon his tomb. His hands are folded together in a prayer. This is symbolic of a time of peace after war, the necessity to contemplate one’s future moves.

If you have received the Five of Swords in your reading, then you are experiencing evidence at this time that you are having a hard time communicating your ideas to others. Anything that is not vocally communicated is painstaking and speculative and is an unhealthy waste of your time. This is the card that is known for ‘writing stories’ in your head that don’t really exist in real life. Really what is happening is you are feeling self-conscious, and you have come up with reasons in your mind to believe that others are out to get you.

The Page of Cups shows up in your reading to represent either yourself and the role you have in the reading or someone else and the role they are playing. You are ruled by the desire to transform. Usually a youth or a girl under eighteen or even a young person who is unmarried with light brown hair or hazel eyes.

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.

The Hermit card is often very much underestimated. He’s the underdog of the tarot that when viewed invokes a reaction from readers and querents alike. Often he is not welcome and that’s just sad. The Hermit doesn’t hide from people; he merely likes to live life on his own terms. He has chosen to retreat into solitude above all of the madness of society. He beckons you to turn your view inward and allow yourself the time and space to think, feel, and meditate on what it is that you truly want in and from your life. By doing this you will be able to unlock your true desires and find a complete happiness.

In all tarot decks I own this is a card is about movement. It is about what is coming next and action. When this appears in my readings it means that now is an excellent time in your life to consider what you can do to cut back. Rather than thinking of your journey as one vacation, the chariot usually indicates something a tad more active, a journey of the spiritual sense or even one for work and finance. Whatever struggle you are going through in your life right now, do not worry that it is going to be all for nothing. The Chariot assures you that you are definitely going places!

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.

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.

Following with the story line of the pentacles you will find that there are ups and downs regarding stability, money, and work. The Six of Pentacles is now that realization of charity and good works. It is a representation of either you receiving charity that is much needed to get you to where you need either financially or in regards to a living situation. Base needs are now being met and positive changes are happening.
