(Early) Tarot Tuesday!

[open_space]

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 like political events, 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 show 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. The conditions that divination taps into are also in constant flux, the same as atmospheric pressure and the Moon. Any unfortunate situation you get yourself into is entirely the responsibility of the querent!

Just popping in to let you know I'm still chewing on this. :)

Here's what's occurred to me so far (just the first two topics):

All reversed cards - this is pretty in-tune, as I mentioned, with my own divination on the topic (the blocked reception or resistant flow of communication). The sense I get on further reflection is that this is the sign given to the "bigger picture" and it strikes me that this could be understood in the context of the (and here I blank on the astrological term) age we're in being furthest from the Divine, at the nadir. While lots of people have free-flowing connection/communication with the Gods, it appears that I'm just experiencing the to-be-expected and kind of run of the mill effects of transmitting over "great distance" as a result of the times. There may be some karmic effects revealed here, but my strongest sense is along the lines of "them's the breaks this time around."

Center, situation The Five of Wands, reversed.: This card suggests to me five people who are learning to create a pentagram - they got one corner!, but they are unpracticed, and having difficulty working together. Following the sparring analogy, it seems a bit like working on martial arts' forms - you have to put in a lot of awkward practice before you achieve flow and non-thought. Reversed indicates that the forms/practices are felt to be compulsory, or done with a sense of compunction (doing the thing your sensei tells you to do, over and over, without connecting to it or connecting it with the bigger picture - so you don't get yelled at, mostly). I don't feel like my case is quite that bad, but there's definitely been the "here I am doing the same exercises again and again without seeing results" feeling. The key is to simply practice, but let the practice become the "result."

Anyway, I know you have a lot to do with all the readings, so no pressure to respond. I just wanted to let you know (by the attention I'm paying it) that I appreciate your help. There'll be more in a few days :)
