Tarot Tuesday!
Mar. 30th, 2021 03:32 pm![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)

Here we go with another iteration of Tarot Tuesday. I didn’t quite manage to finish writing the essay on divination, and though that will be ready soon, we can go ahead and start calibrating the card-o-scope and check what the Astral Light is up to today, this week or the coming months. So if you have a question, bring it on.
I've been studying and practicing the Tarot for about 2 years now and having cast a few spreads for friends who found it helpful I thought I might make a deal with anyone that happens to read this.
Here is the deal, I will repost this on the last Tuesday of every month and will try to answer your query before the end of the month. Post a comment below requesting for a reading within the week of posting, depending on the number of comments and the situation I can either offer a lengthy reading or a three card reading. What I request back from you is some feedback about your situation and in case of some outcome what I got right and what I got wrong.
So, if you have a situation where you want to know what the Astral Light is up to, be it personal, general or on a broader scale, or want to know what the week or month ahead has in store for you, why then, you know what to do. I would encourage you to post it publicly below, as for others to get an idea of what I have to offer, to encourage discussion and what divination is about in general but if your situation is delicate post a comment marked NOT FOR POSTING explaining your situation and I'll consider it on a case by case basis.
That said, divination is like weather forecasting not a tablet of truth handed down from above, so take the advice I give you through the cards as such. Any unfortunate situation you get yourself into is entirely the responsibility of the querent!

Date: 2021-04-15 11:49 am (UTC)In the immediate sense of what I am wondering about for myself when I talk about external threats - I am wondering if there might be any new health policy or such that would close me down or make me go "underground" to keep doing what I do. In any case I think if something like this does arise I can bring that up for a future reading, maybe.
Of course this reading instead suggests internal work. Grrrr. ;)
In general my clinic is hopping and people are giving good feedback. One of the things that may have to die (literally) is the last remnants of income support I have been claiming (a tiny stipend for self-employed people working less than 24 hours in the week). Last year I would have been delighted to see 10 people in a week. Right now I am changing my clinic schedule to provide me with 30 instead of 25 weekly appts. And they are filling up rightly. The income support is looking like a mental dependancy (rather than a financial one) that I do not need to have any more. I think I will take this prompt and wind it up. Although the meanings here are probably going in other directions too.
Please feel free to ask what you like on MM. Including for this. It might be good to do the work inside of some banishings.
As to what I left on the table (I was mostly testing my own astral abilities) was this: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/bd/Saint_Brigid's_cross.jpg/1200px-Saint_Brigid's_cross.jpg and with it Brigid's blessings. Although the one that is on my altar is resting beside a vase in which I keep yellow flowers... ;)

Date: 2021-04-15 07:53 pm (UTC)Yes, please do go over it bit by bit as the events start to unfold. I made the connections carefully for you to find out what is being said. There is also a typo that is relevant but I won't give it away ;-). I think this might've been Brigid hand in a way. This reading has layers, much more than the last one which was pretty straight forward so if you can meditate on it by picking themes of the reading it will help a lot to unpack it. Also, I asked about the most important thing of the months ahead, so perhaps the fact that nothing really indicates the issue you mention could probably be a 'no'.
Internal work readings are the hardest ones to understand --I talk about that on my essay on divination particularly-- because by definition it's things we don't see about ourselves and thus it needs a third person perspective in order to look back at us in a way. They are also hard because we are subconsciously protecting our limitations and our mind comes up with ways of discarding or evading what needs to be seen. Many times trying to find something that would fit and settle it, but it has only been dodged in a clever way. Hopefully, the readings will help you jolt out of those pitfalls once you start encountering the events this reading talks about.
Hmm. Is it much money? I don't think it is that unless it is crucial but it very well could be, or an aspect of it. However, there are three Major Arcana in the reading and two on the first month so it seems unlikely that is what is ending, but again, it could be. One thing to consider is that it is the theme of the month, not something in particular necessarily but the mood that will permeate the whole month.
I can do a yourself-situation-outcome reading for that specific issue you have in mind. Geomancy would be much better suited to this, as it deals with the mundane and the material very well, the Tarot on the other hand is built upon the structure of the Trumps which relate to Spirit so it tends to be much more about ourselves in my experience. It will take me probably 6 months to start offering Geomancy readings as I need to get familiar with the oracle but we can see how it goes. Can you point me to some sources, if any, regarding the alt health-care in your country? If this is something particular for example.
Feel free to come back any time to revisit it or ask questions! I will probably change the dynamic of the readings, perhaps leaving it open for the whole month and reposting every once in a while or maybe doing it weekly but just for that day. What do you think about this?
Regarding Brigids Cross, that's beautiful! Holly items glow golden in the astral as they are charged with energy and certainly my image gets closer to golden than green-yellow, maybe that is why. The shape I didn't get at all, but that could be because shapes in the astral are tricky and require quite a bit of effort to make them sharp instead of fuzzy. But that is seriously cool though! I've heard of full magnificent temples being built in the astral. Apparently there are also libraries and stuff like that.

It would also be interesting to see how that compares to the other reading.
All the best, as always

Date: 2021-04-18 07:51 pm (UTC)Also, my period of spare leisure time, which I have really enjoyed over the past year (since I left my office job and its morning alarm, rush to get dressed and out the door routine, in March 2020) is fairly well ended, now that the clinic is getting busy, and filling up every single week day.
In a less emphatic way, the winter is fairly well ended, but (also) the fruitful planting opportunities that I am waiting for are not available yet, as the weather has remained rather poor. So, there is a certain amount of frustration here.
These are the things that are coming to mind, and I may keep the question before me for the next day or two before moving on to the next card. I shall remain alert for any other prompts that come to mind.
