Dear Members,

I have been reading tarot for quite some time using waite deck but i have not been able to predict the events such as marriage,aboard travel and birth of child (especially the year month and date ) which most of them ask for in reading.


Especially most of my known circle are asking me to do this reading for them i find it difficult to tell them that i am not able to read them help me out to make this a good reading session.

thanks

Oh, the wretched topic of timing again ;) I know...... we all want to know timing of events. But is timing always accurate? I doubt it.

There are many ideas and concepts on tarot timing and whichever works for you best.

This is how I work, but I tend not to emphasise too much on timing.

Cups: Spring
Wands: Summer
Swords: Autumn
Pentacles: Winter

Aces stand for the season when the event may take place...... and after that II, III, IV...... I take them as the number of weeks within that season.

Court cards are viewed upon as the transitional period between seasons.

But,then again, court cards have their own astrological attributions in terms of the zodiac signs. Would that be another factor for timing?

If you dont feel comfortable giving timing, then it is best to say that you dont do timing.

Hi cedars,
Its nice of you to give your experience on the timing however people tend to seek the timing of event so that they have belief in the reading because we tend to speak of the vibration of the client during particular session.

I had tried some times to give this reading based on pip cards and court cards eg aces means January,two - Feb etc but when it came to Nov & Dec i had got confused for i used to get court cards (such as page,king or queen) where i used to get stuck for not able to ascertain the month.

Hope you would share your experience on this reading and tell me if this method is correct as i have tried this while doing it for my clients.

I would like you to throw some light on giving the exact date of such event eg. Mar-May, 2nd week,15th etc sort of ...

Regards,

The way I do it (If I had to) would be II of Cups the second week of Spring..... now it depends when you are giving the reading.. If the reading is in the summer, would you like to tell the seeker whatever they are looking for may happen the second week of next spring?

That is why when I give readings, I usually tell them that the time span is around six months. There is nothing worse than giving timing and letting the seeker wait on the clock..... I dont like doing that.

Hi Cedar,

It seems that you have been trying to play safe however my question would be to know the kind of spread you tend to use while having such occasion since sometime i doubt about the outcome of the reading especially while doing the same for career spread.

Hope you would share your views and experience on this space.

eg. Person who is undergoing turmoil in his career wants to know when he would get a good job in near future, can you take up this for your explanation.

thanks
