Hi,
Please remember that these are purely theoretical and I didn't draw any conclusions from the spread or the lay of the cards at all. We can discuss the CC in detail so you can understand how it fits together and you will then be able to really get an answer to your questions. Your spread may even describe situations you would not even have considered at all.
The Significator.
This is a card the reader may want to use to ground the Querent, or understand it as a pivot; all the cards refer to a central point or person. This card give indications to the querant, physical, psychological or may also bring into focus the current situation.
In your reading, You used the Knights, relating to your age, but it may also signify the energy they bring along.
Knight of Pentacles.
A young man with an adventurous spirit. Possesses great potential, but does not fulfill it as yet. A materially minded person, one less likely to look beyond the surface; an adventurer, a gambler. Given a task to perform, he has courage and can be responsible, but is not yet able to set his goals and follow them. If not a person; a departure or arrival; possible discord or quarrels, usually concerning unfulfilled expectations. Investment, new career, new means of income. You are also being told that you could be more than you are if you’d simply settle down and work at it.
Card Description.
Card 1:[b]
[b]Present influences or the subconscious intention of the reading. This card is randomly drawn from the fanned deck by the Querent.
General atmosphere, state of mind, people & other influences now at work.
One can be related to the Magician, it signifies the root force, origin, first spark. In essence, that which started and maintains this reading and how the cards are influenced.
Two of Swords
You have or might enter a business or personal relationship in which both parties are working together to achieve a mutual goal. The deal is that, both of you don’t really trust each other enough. You can see this relationship based on a game of chess, by which every move must be well considered and done to only ensure balance. Although you may work together in harmony, always check your back. Make sure that whatever you do, you strengthen your position. Be sure this is what the other partner is doing. You may be able to balance the situation using your intellect and experience.
Card 2:
Obstacles and blockages,
In representing obstacles, this card indicates people or any forces at work influencing the Querants present circumstances or blockages existing about which the querent may not be aware off.
The twos are related to the High Priestess. As such they indicate duality but, more importantly, they indicate instinctual knowledge. Aces are undirected energy; the twos are, in a sense, the knowledge of what the direction for that energy should take.
The World (Reversed)
Disappointment, small advances. Failure, stagnation.
Card 3:
This crowns you.
It describes your goals in this matter, and if it will be achieved at this time. This card explains your ideal aim, what you hope to accomplish in this situation and or the best that you can make happen under the circumstances—whether or not it is what you want. It also represents the immediate future, in that which the card describes is still to come.
Ruling over the threes is the Empress, of course, whose card is all about creation. The child in the womb, the seed in the ground. So, with the twos, a choice has been made about what use to put this passion, emotion, brainpower, craft. Now we get the first results of that decision, the initial offspring[/b]
Justice
Equity, victory of the right in general; also triumph for the deserving side in legal matters. Ability to judge without being swayed by personal considerations or bias. Fairness, reasonableness, proper balance. Impartiality. This card also indicates (and sometimes influences) lawsuits and legal matters.
Card 4:
This is beneath you.
It describes the foundation under discussion; a specific event or different things happening in the immediate past which, because of their influence on you, are the reason, or direct cause of the situation you find yourself in. This card signifies, that which has happened to you and how it changed you. This card also signifies what you can do, to help you reach your final aim or goal.
Fours are ruled by the Emperor. Like both the Emperor and his throne they signify a kind of stability, a holding pattern if you will. For a moment, everything is still, solid, rooted, established. This can be positive, a solid foundation, or negative, something that refuses to budge or change.
Six of Pentacles
You have or will ensure your financial stability. You are or will be in a position whereby you can truly see the change from a tumultuous past to a stable and balanced future. In fact you are able to share that wealth and have enough to ensure the brighter future. A very important matter to remember is to be in reach of all those you may assist, don’t elevate yourself above them, you were also in their position, not too long ago. With your knowledge, abilities and tenacity, expect, and accept a better way of life and the beginning of greater achievements.
Card 5:
This is behind you.
Card 5 is placed “behind” the Significator. If the image on the Significator views to the left, card 5 is placed to the right, should the image on the Significator have a forward view , or no direction, Card 5 is placed to the left as it signifies “the past in coming to an end now”, should it have a view to the right, this card is placed to the left; It gives the influence or set of circumstances that is busy happening now and will soon end; the situation which has just passed or is now in passing. In effect, events or circumstances in your past, as shown in the first few cards, created a general personal environment in which you were operating. This environment is now busy changing, either because you took steps to change it, or because some influence is forcing a change. This card is the current from which the Querent is passing away, and it may be the past of the matter. When trying to read the Fives think of the Hierophant. The Hierophant represents a teacher, counselor, or priest, someone who advises people when they're in trouble. Likewise, the Fives are unique cards in that each one seems to pose both a problem and an answer. After four fairly smooth cards of growth and development, the fives represent the fly in the ointment. Instability; the changes that make one humble and allow for growth. Of the question asked of the Hierophant by a troubled supplicant, the problem is real world. The answer, however, appropriate to the Hierophant, is usually spiritual or at least pragmatic. Understand that all Fives temper the Querent - you go through the fire, the low points, the hard times, in order to come out stronger[/b]
Hanged Man.
Self-sacrifice, growth and wisdom. Devotion, surrender and renunciation.
The Hanged Man requires that you be willing to suffer some loss or surrender some pleasure in order to attain your goal. The greater the goal, the greater the sacrifice required to win it. If this card represents you are going to have to pay-and pay dearly- for whatever it is that you want. If you are willing to pay the price, you can attain your goal. Just remind yourself throughout this time that the choice is yours: pay the price, or sacrifice the goal.
Card 6:
This is before you.
This card describes the future influence or set of circumstances you can expect; the change in personal environment that either should (if you are advised what to do) or will (if you go with the flow) take place. The past described by card 5 is giving way to the new situation as a result to the actions you have taken. If the situation in card 5 has been described exactly and a specific timeframe can be added to it, card 5 and 6 can act as timing factor, as that which is described in card 5 timed until now, card 6 can then be applied adding the same time period but into the future. In general readings the timeframe is also general and can be from a few days to 12 months. When asking a specific question, you can include a time period of say within the next two months etc. It is the current coming into action and will operate in the specific matter.
Sixes are balance and harmony, especially after the upsets of the fives. These cards predict a solution, and not just any solution; there will be an exchange, a give and take that results in a new equilibrium. It may not last, but for that moment, everything is stable. With this card, there is an almost "Ah-HA!" of recognition, of understanding in the solution, and more than a little awe at the symmetry achieved by it.
Wheel of Fortune.
Good luck, destiny, fortune. Success, an unexpected turn of events. Promotion or elevation. Victory or obstacles overcome by good fortune.
We are all bound to the Wheel of Fortune. Some of us are fighting our way upward while others fall by the wayside. Some sit on top of the heap, apparently unaffected by the vagaries of fortune. But the wheel is turning for everyone, whether or not we are aware of it. What results for everyone is pure chance, and has nothing to do with individual worth, or lack of it. The message here is in direct contrast to Justice. In both cards, each individual is treated with strict impartiality. In Justice, however, the result is fair; you get what you deserve. In fortune you get what happens to come, no matter what you deserve. What’s worse, the forces controlling your life don’t consider you, or anyone else, at all; they don’t even see you. In effect you become like the objects on the jugglers table, tossed about at random. In fact you are even less than that, for at least the juggler watches what he’s working with, even if he doesn’t care about anyone but himself. The Wheel of Fortune teaches us that there are things in life that just happen, and over which not you, and not even blind fate has control. You must be aware that the wheel is constantly turning, and that your life is being affected by it. If you want success, you have to fight to take control of the uncontrollable; to force fate to give you what you choose, whether or not you deserve it.
The secret of good fortune is to learn to use your psychic, or inner powers, to control your fate, rather than allowing yourself to be shifted around by any wind that blows. Blind fortune has no interest in who wins or who loses; she simply turns the wheel at random. If you want to come out at the top, you have to learn to care enough about what happens to you to take control of the Wheel of Fortune.
Card 7:
This is you.
This card represents you. In general it puts you in perspective in terms of the circumstances of the reading. It shows your stance or attitude towards yourself or towards your situation. It also reveals how you are likely to behave or react in this situation. Therefore this card signifies the Querent’s self, his attitude to the matter.
Sevens relate to the Chariot, a card about finding and maintaining complete control and mastery over wild or opposing forces
The Lovers.
Love, union, marriage. It also signifies a choice you need to make between spiritual or sensual, and between intuition and reason.
Card 8:
This is your house.
This card represents your environment, or surroundings, in this situation; that which is going on around you at this time. It shows your effect on people especially those close to you, or closely involved with you, it also shows your general effect on events. More importantly, it shows what kind of effect, other people or events, has on you, what they are doing and how they are reacting and what their intentions are regarding a situation or in these circumstances. Therefore it signifies your house, your environment in the affair—the influence, people and events around you.
We relate the Eights to Strength. Eights are about moving, taking action, as Strength is a card of courage and transformation. It's very easy to let things stay as they are inside yourself or without (though, as the Eights warn, it's easy but damaging). It is much harder to gather up the willpower and mental strength to make a real change. A scary change. Like the Strength card, it is scary to approach that lion, but you can alter the relationship you have with it
Nine of Wands.
I included the upright and reversed descriptions for you.
Upright.
The task is performed successfully, the job is done. The person to whom this card refers has learned discipline, the ability to plan wisely, and courage under fire. Even if there are problems (which may be shown by the other cards), you know how to deal with them, they no longer defeat you by just happening. If there is opposition, you, with your skills, strength and courage will make you a formidable opponent. What you seek most, leadership, a successful career, is right there. You’ve only to shine the Hermit's light upward to see it. You might feel tired, wary and on guard; but remind yourself that you have reserves of energy and strength for that final push. Completion of all you've worked for is right there, all you need to do is, go for it!
Reversed.
Indicated you may see that your success was halted partly to your own stubbornness. It’s as if you learned nothing from previous mistakes. What is worse, you have been given good advice but are fighting to keep this environment of failure. Expect more obstacles, even injury and illness. Try to get yourself together, learn from your mistakes, take good advice and maybe you’ll be better of in future.
Card 9:
This is your hopes and fears;
This card reveals your inner thoughts about a situation; it shows how you feel about people, events and circumstances surrounding you at this time including your feelings about yourself and your chances of success or failure.
You need to understand 2 things clearly.
First. The card describes how you feel, not what has happened, is happening or will happen. Not everyone’s emotional perspective is always right. Your reaction may be reasonable given the current set of circumstances, but it could also be entirely wrong!!(Not being able to see the forest from the trees).
Second. This card still affects the final outcome, whether your emotional perspective is correct or wrong. As an example, if you have to take action, but is afraid to, how positive or successful the card predicts, a big possibility you will still fail, because you can’t make the change or move
Nine is a card of completion. Like the Hermit, who connects to the nines, it is a card where something is finished and the person in turn steps back to look on what he's done, earned, or gained. Nines are among the most powerful cards, usually granting the Querent what it is they, like the Hermit, are seeking
Five of Pentacles
The meaning of this card has far-reaching consequences. You are or will soon be in a position where you have been ripped to pieces by those wanting their money. You’ve been left with nothing. The unfortunate part is that you may have been the cause of all this turmoil and destruction. You based everything on one single project to ensure financial stability. With all the eggs in one basket, you risked all and lost the battle. You dropped the basket or the handle merely broke. Not only is it your financial stability, but also your spiritual and mental position that is suffering. Nobody could foresee this happening, although you saw it coming you didn’t act fast enough to ensure your well-being. This is an all time low for you and will not disappear overnight. The only thing for you to do is to weather the storm, get it over and done with. Then start building again, for anything will be better than what you have now. Remember to, then, keep this cycle in mind and take precautionary measures.
Card 10:
Final outcome.
This is the result. It reveals what will happen or is going to happen; the culmination which will result from the influences shown by all the other cards in the reading. If this card is a Minor Arcana Court Card, it represents a person, who holds the key to the realization of all things predicted.
This is then what will come.
You need to remember one thing, all the previous cards put together creates this outcome, should you not follow the advice, and your final outcome will change.
Consider that life exist around choices you make, sometimes it’s easier to make the correct choice if you know the secrets of the Tarot, so is it also important to remember the choice you make should fit what you want!!! After all you have to live with your mistakes or successes.
As the aces were the pure, elemental spark of the suit, the tens are the element of the suit complete. Not as in the nines, which are physical completion, but in a transcendent fashion. It is the ultimate good or bad of that element. In this card we see attainment as opposed to completion in card 9.
The Devil (Reversed)
Pettiness, weakness. Blindness, jealousy, illness. Evil fate. Wrong choices. Disaster for you.
You’re being offered a quick fix for your problems. If you are impatient enough to take it, you may see the destruction of all your dreams and plans. You can succeed on your own. Don’t be tempted by shortcuts, however attractive; or dismayed by the hard work involved if you continue alone.
If this card represents you, beware. The power you are exercising over your subordinates is heady, and you may find it satisfying to manipulate, control, and even destroy their lives. But even the real devil has no place to go but down.
Looking at your cards, what I think you should take into consideration is, the opening with 2 of Swords, The Lovers in house 7 and the Devil(R) in house 10. In house 9, we find 5 of Pentacles and it's connotations to the matter. In house 4 we find 6 of Pentacles (past). Don't be fixed on "financial" matters when reading "Cups" issues. Look at the bigger picture in this lay. We find strong references to "balance" and perhaps less to equity.
Blessed be.
