Hi,

You have now proven to the entire Tarot community, how a self-reading should not be done!

Your reading is biased to favor you and you read what you want to beleive. The Hierophant and Justice does not necessarily mean "marraige" Justice pertains legal matters as a face value.

Firstly, when you ask for advice on MB. You need to specify your spread, deck and whether you read only upright or upright and reversed!

As you asked a specific question, regarding your possible "love relationship" How did you word it? Cups normally point to relationships, but in this scenerio, with the specific question, you can interpret wands and pentacles as beneficial or obstacles. Knights are fast moving and tend to be impulsive and at times not reliable, depends on which Knight you are looking at and the placement of the card.

You have practically interpret your cards and for us to give you clarity on certain issues is very difficult, because your conclusion is as "how you want it" Thus-biased.

There is absolutely nothing wrong in doing readings for yourself, but then you need to have the ability to "rise above" your emotional perspective, and read the cards as a reader to an unknown querant. This is not always so easy to do.

I also do readings for myself, but, do it tongue in cheek, and don't really trust these readings. I will record them and then look to see when the first influence or circumstance correspond, then I start looking for the rest to happen.

One thing which is really great, is that you posted your reading and gave another perspective to the cards. As we are always learning, every single bit of info is just soaked up and remembered.

We would also really enjoy your views and revere your participation in other topics we discuss, and perhaps becoming a reader in our community, how about that?

Thanx for your interesting posting and may you enjoy our forums.

Blessed be

Well, after two years of starting with tarot I still consider myself a newbie so thanks for pointing this out. Ironically I didn't interpret them on how I'd like to see it more on how I SAW them working in the situation.. I guess its the same thing?

And I'm using the Vanessa Tarot.

I think you are doing far too many readings for yourself on the same topic and are starting to see things the way you want to see them. I am not interpreting your layout of cards above, but speaking in general ONLY.

Only one comment though: I think the Devil shows your obsession with regard to this situation. Go easy, go with the flow... and stop designing your wedding dress so soon.

Others are more than welcome to give their interpretation of the above layout.

Happy New Year.

Yeah I agree.. as a beginner I don't know how many readings is appropriate per topic... and when they kept showing similar combinations took it as a hint..

Hi Girl,

Let's look at "how many times" How much is too many and how many are to much.

U can not do multiple readings on one subject frequently. Your first reading will reveal the circumstance and actions as it manifest!

In this regard then, you can attach a timeperiod to your reading. You can even design a spread of your own to indicate, what you could do in a x number of days to ensure success, in a certain matter.

So:
Day 1--Motivation,
Day 2--Initialisation,
Day 3--First action,
Day 4--Possible reaction,
Day 5--Obstacle or beneficial influence.
Day 6--Advice for me, or action to be taken
Day 7--The possible conclusion.

So here you will now have a spread that is valid for the forthcoming week or seven days. Then to do another reading halfway through is folly, what you want to find, will be in the first reading, you just need to search for it, that's all. In this scenario, even drawing a "oracle" tarot card for the day, will not be beneficial either.

Normally, we consider readings to be valid for 3 or even up to six months. That is why, when I do readings, I record each one. I've got readings in my Book of Shadows as far as 4-5 years ago. This is a very important thing to do, as you can monitor your querant and get feedback, on your accuracy, and then also "time-periods".

Therefore, when you do a general reading, how long will it last or be active?

I agree with Pirbid and Cedars in everything they say, you need to take heed and truly wonder how your hormones are acting? The Devil can also see you being slightly "naughty" and chained to your "Wroom wroom" side, catch my drift?

Blessed be.
