Hi
I did a Celtic Cross reading for: Will I find a job (in the next 3 months)?

1. Present:  W.Forture
2. Influence:  5 Pentacles
3. Past Issue:  The Emperor
4. Immediate Past:  Q. Pentacles
5. Crowning thoughts:  A. Cup
6. Immediate Future:  The Lovers
7. Your Fears:  The Star
8. Other's View:  The Fool
9. Your hope:  3 Swords
10 Outcome:  King of Cup

My situation is: Currently out of work and not in a relationship.   The thing is, The most important thing on my mind is financial security.  

So my question is why "The Lover" card and why is "The Star" under your fears...most important why is the 3 of Swords on #9 for your hope's.  I would not "hope" for the 3 of Swords.

At first glance 5 Major arcana cards out of ten, that is a BIG reading, very important to you. The rest of the make-up is Cups, ( emotions, feelings) and Pentacles ( Finances and money) The 3 of Swords seems out of place really but Swords indicates thoughts and words.

1. Present: W.Forture
Great card, The wheel can spin and stop anywhere, life goes on and on and there is chance and luck all around

2. Influence: 5 Pentacles
The beggars in the snow outside the warm church, a driving force of money and physical comforts here, to be loved and finanically secure.

3. Past Issue: The Emperor
Strong male dominance here? Past employer, Past lover?

4. Immediate Past: Q. Pentacles
Money again were finances an issue?

5. Crowning thoughts: A. Cup
Dreams and inspirations. The possibilities of a new relationship rest on your mind

6. Immediate Future: The Lovers
A new relationship, choosing between one thing and another in matters that affect you greatly.

7. Your Fears: The Star
Fearing new things, new ideas, fresh starts.

8. Other's View: The Fool
Others see the fool an innocent that is naieve and beginning a new journey.

9. Your hope: 3 Swords
Three swords,  someone already taken , someone that you fancy? Arguments and sadness over an issue.

10 Outcome: King of Cup
Warmth, safety and security

what a wonderful reading lady of avalon
