Reading Notes: Something to take into consideration



Your Interpretations

Self: The Magician

© Tarot.com

POSITIONAL (MAIN) MEANING
You have a talent for creating something from nothing.

The card in the Self position reveals aspects of how you perceive yourself right now.

The Magus symbolizes imagination, creativity and an inventive nature. Your unique intelligence and talent for clever experimentation is a valuable asset. The Magus serves as a catalyst, an agent of change. His influence is a fresh breeze blowing through any situation.

So be playful, and stay open. Don't limit yourself, the possibilities are endless. Try things, see what happens and correct your course as you go. Tease open the minds of those who are watching to see what you will do.


Situation: The World

POSITIONAL (MAIN) MEANING
You drew your arrow and hit your target with the style of a skillful archer.

The card that lands in the Situation position refers to social or circumstantial factors which could be affecting your life at this time.

When the World is in this position, you appear to be approaching circumstances that previously existed only in your imagination. After years of effort and struggle, matters may seem absurdly easy now. Your ambition, inspiration and perseverance have taken you toward your desired outcome. Now you are zeroing in on the bull's eye, having explored the territory and brought yourself to its center.

Pause for a while and enjoy this moment. Recognize that you have completed what you set out to achieve. You are the person you wanted to be in the presence of the company you wanted to keep. You now inhabit what used to be a dream.


Challenges/ Opportunities: Three of Wands

POSITIONAL (MAIN) MEANING
Be ready to act on what you instinctively know is a good opportunity.

The card that lands in the Challenges/Opportunities position refers to ways that you can turn obstacles into stepping stones.

The Three of Wands in this position indicates that your instincts and impulses may be aroused by new trends and possibilities. Take a good look at the tide coming in and be ready to take advantage of its power to take your ships out to sea.

Act on these changes -- you are the right person at the right time. If you disregard this opportunity you will regret it later.


Foundation: Eight of Cups

© Tarot.com

POSITIONAL (MAIN) MEANING
When you assert inner wisdom and strength, you will not repeat patterns of victimization.

The card in the Foundation position points to influences from your personal history, your roots and background.

The Eight of Cups in this position suggests that lack of protection or boundaries has caused you to be wounded in the past. Setting aside the question of who is guilty and how scores might be settled, ask yourself if you are still expecting the worst.

Do you continue to be passive, waiting for the ax to fall, or for another's actions to determine your fate? To the extent that your boundaries can still be violated, you continue to collude with victimizers, losing power and self-esteem. Summon your courage to graduate from a chronically defensive posture in order to stop attracting traumatic experiences.


Recent Past: Ten of Cups

© Tarot.com

POSITIONAL (MAIN) MEANING
Something that used to hurt you and hold you back has been healed; you have arrived at a new level.

The card in the Recent Past position refers to events that are just departing, recently influential but now diminishing in power.

With the Ten of Cups in your recent past, you have just completed an extended exercise of self-discipline, intense focus and cooperative teamwork. These labors have brought you to a new level of self-esteem, usefulness and enthusiastic service in your life.

Even when you are feeling down, you no longer slide back into the same ruts. Challenges no longer deter you -- you don't despair or feel abandoned. Instead, you know how to refill your cup from the inside and let it overflow, becoming an inspiration for others. Having seen positive results and the impact of your efforts, you can now hold yourself in higher esteem. Take your advancement to heart. With it you can operate from a stronger position of strength and creativity than you could before.


Higher Power: Nine of Cups

POSITIONAL (MAIN) MEANING

POSITIONAL (MAIN) MEANING
You know there is a benevolent presence in the universe that blesses you.

The card in the Higher Power position reflects the broader perspective and influence of your conscience, Guardian Angel, inner wisdom.

The Nine of Cups in this position points to great blessings. Because your ego has remained pliant and teachable, your Higher Self has arranged abundant rewards for you. Although you are clever and creative, in your heart of hearts you know that divine providence and synchronicity have had a lot to do with whatever success you have achieved.

Be grateful to a Higher Power; acknowledge that you never could have accomplished anything worthwhile without its backing. Other awakenings may come as well: that you are not alone, that you are being protected, that the Greater Whole supports your endeavors. When you want what is best for everyone, spiritual forces arrange what is best for you. That may seem illogical to some, but when you have experienced it, a tremendous amount of fearful anxiety goes away. You can directly acknowledge the light that shines upon you from on high. The evidence lies right here in this experience.


Near Future: Two of Cups

© Tarot.com

POSITIONAL (MAIN) MEANING
A relationship is blooming. Trust the process and open with it.

The card in the Near Future position indicates which way the wind is blowing with regard to your situation. If you follow the Advice card, however, you can improve on or neutralize tendencies.

With the Two of Cups in this position, a newly emerging or existing friendship can develop into something more. You may feel as if you want to know this person or situation better and better. This optimistically placed card encourages you to trust and let yourself open up. It is telling you to go for it -- why hold back? One of the strongest human drives is to relate more deeply, more honestly and with fuller consciousness.

As long as you're not frivolous with this relationship or foolishly scattering your energy around, there is no reason to repress your feelings or pretend that an amazing alchemical occurrence isn't in the works.


Blocks & Inhibitions: Three of Cups

© Tarot.com

POSITIONAL (MAIN) MEANING
Is it possible that you think you won't receive the love and support you need?

The card in the Blocks position points to self-undermining tendencies, areas where you could be in denial, where you could get stuck -- unless you examine yourself and make some corrections.

When the Three of Cups falls in this position, a part of you doesn't believe that you can attract the kind of love you offer to another. Is it possible that you have a double standard you are holding against yourself? You wish to be seen as a person who cares about others and takes care of them, remaining open to the ebb and flow of the needs in your relationship. But what about receiving?

For some reason, you may not expect or ever ask to be taken care of in return. When you come up short after having poured out much love and energy to a partner, ask yourself why you tend to starve yourself. Once you understand that, you can put a stop to this self-undoing tendency. True love requires a two-way circuit of giving and receiving.


Allies: Seven of Pentacles

© Tarot.com

POSITIONAL (MAIN) MEANING
Listen to your mentors, so their experience and wisdom can guide you in your endeavor or special relationship.

The card in the Allies position points to people who can be supportive or helpful to you at this time.

In this position, the Seven of Coins implies the presence of experienced people who understand your situation and can give you advice on what to do next. Listen so you can begin your progress from the highest point their shared experience and wisdom can take you.

This is what evolution and progress are all about. You are blessed with great human resources around you, and they are positively disposed toward you, happy to share their accumulated experience. Seek these people out. Perhaps by helping them on their projects you will earn the right to have their help on yours. Be gracious to friendly resources that are available to you.


Advice: The Emperor

POSITIONAL (MAIN) MEANING

POSITIONAL (MAIN) MEANING
Draw upon the capable inner resources you possess to get the task completed.

The card in the Advice position suggests a course of action which will harmonize what you want with what is currently possible.

When the Emperor is in this position, get in touch with your inner sovereignty and natural self-possession. Realize that somewhere deep inside you is the memory of royalty. Reach within to find that strain of natural nobility and leadership. These innate qualities will help you manage your current situation.

The Emperor suggests that you have the necessary abilities to be the final authority. This situation is an opportunity to showcase your competence and skill. Act with the confidence of someone who knows how to take care of business.


Long-term Potential: Knight of Swords

© Tarot.com

POSITIONAL (MAIN) MEANING
You can direct the situation without controlling it. Be creative and flexible.

The card in the Long-term Potential position points to unknowns still taking shape. It is the "wild card" yet to be played.

With the Knight of Swords (in some decks, a Prince) in this position, change is afoot; no longer drifting with the currents, you are assertively directing the flow. Although we often wait until things happen to us, the Knight of Swords likes to be the prime mover in a situation.

If you are respectful of natural timing, the innate enthusiasm of this horseman can facilitate change. Nevertheless, be careful not to try to control the outcome. You will serve the situation best by being receptive, so the finest ideas have a chance to emerge. Avoid second-guessing what the highest and best outcome should look like. The best this horseman has to offer is creative intellect combined with mental resilience.
