Hi. I would really like and appreciate a reading concerning my love life. I'm a 26 year old taurus, born on April 28, 1982. male and homo. It's been a year since I've left my country, friends, family and lover to come to Italy.  And currently I am living here. I'm lonely as I have never been before but I'm taking it pretty well so far, It really hasn't affected me yet because i have other things to worry about. So basically I wasn't feeling the loneliness per se until yesterday. It really did hit me yesterday after talking to my ex-bf. We broke up 3 months after i came here so basically it's been a year since i'm alone.

will something interesting happen -new friends, someone special, ...anything?- or am i more likely to spend another year alone?

I have only just one more question, this one regarding my professional life. I'm about to start studying literature in college but I'm not sure that this is the right time to do it. I will love to do it and I really want to but the other day i had the feeling it wasn't the right thing to do... to me it almost seemed that life itself or god was trying to tell me something, and now i'm really confused. So, should i really do this?

Hello Rising Sun

I have seen your reading request once before and today I felt I should reply to you, as you have not had a reading thus far.

To begin with, for someone who writes as eloquently as you do, I cannot see you being on your own for a long time. It is sad that your relationship with your partner has come to an end, but I am sure I can see you with people around you making new friends.

For the social side of your life, I picked three cards from the Rider Waite:

The Hierophant. The Fool. Queen of Pentacles.

What can I say? You are in a foreign country, things are different to what you have been used to back home; you are grieving your broken relationship and you are in the land of the Pope, to mention but a few. What you have done might be something unconventional for you – leaving your home to foreign shores and three months afterwards breaking up with your partner. The Hierophant (also known as the Pope in other suits) is possibly testing your faith in yourself. It is also trying to teach you practicalities in life that you ought to learn along with your s p i r i t u a l ones. I almost feel that this journey that you have taken, like the Fool, has got a lot to teach you along with the risks involved and the element of adventure that it presents to you. On one hand I feel you like being independent and carefree (like a loner) and, on the other hand, I feel you are missing the tender things in life, like home, parents, a mother figure who cares for you and who probably is still supporting you in her own way from a distance. I do not know why you came to Italy in the first place, leaving a partner behind, and broke up with him after three months of coming here. However, I feel there is a lot to learn for you before you start partying. The partying is there waiting for you, as I picked a fourth card and got the Three of Cups which is celebrations, social encounters, partying, nights out and so on. But, forgive me if I say so my friend, I feel there is more to your move than meets the eyes at this very present time.


As for the professional side of your life, I picked three more cards from the same deck:

Four of Swords. Three of Pentacles. The High Priestess.

There is dormancy here, if you like to call it that, where you have given yourself some time off to think things over – possibly trying to find out if you should go ahead with your studies? A sort of with withdrawal from the mundane until you find the answers in your head. I feel you will give yourself that time come autumn and by the beginning of winter I see you exchanging ideas about a plan, presenting your case to those who may give their seal of approval. My friend, I see this being in a hall, in a library, almost like a big building representing a learning institution. Make of this what you will, but with the High Priestess (the female equivalent of the Hierophant as above) there is again more learning coming your way, but this time things of intangible nature, acquiring knowledge far and beyond the physical realm. I cannot separate the two archetypes or the embodiments of knowledge here in the form of the Hierophant and the High Priestess – one urging you to gain knowledge on the earthly realm of things and the other on the spiritual realm.

I see you juggling between the above – after picking a fourth card, The Two of Pentacles – quite successfully and also having some fun in the process.

The friends and the social life are there and will come to you, but I do feel that will not be the major player in your life in Italy. You got there for a purpose, for a reason, and soon you will be able to tackle those purposes by getting to know yourself and your inner workings a lot closer than you have done in the past.

I hope this made some sense to you Rising Sun and I do hope things work out for you.

Blessings to you young man


p.s. I do hope you call yourself gay or homosexual, rather than ‘homo’ which to me sounds derogatory – almost self critical – which I am sure you are not.

Hi cedars,
Thank you very much for the reading   . I have no words to express all the gratitude that i'm feeling right now. I was needing this reading and now i feel relieved. I am amazed at the veracity of the whole reading, it honestly surprised me as i didn't expect it to be that accurate and precise.

I do feel that the main purpuse of this journey was to learn, practical and spiritual lessons, and that's kind of the purpose of life itself, isn't it? I mean, we are all the time learning new things, practical and spiritual, in order to evolve and become a wiser person, aren't we?. I am learning a lot of practical stuff - i didn't know how to cook before coming here and now i can cook! and i'm very thankful for that, i mean 26 ^%&*%^&% years. it was about time! i also have to deal with situations i didn't have to back home -stuff like doing the dishes, cleaning the bathroom floor, etc, lol- because i have always been a very spoiled kid and all my life i've had cleaning lady, but now i feel so much better and prepared.

In regards to the spiritual learning, I feel like there is a big spiritual thing going on that i need to learn but I'm not being able to see it clearly. I can feel it but i can't recognize it yet... I know there's a huge spiritual reason that i'm all by myself now and i wish i know what it is... i don't know to get more in touch with my inner self, do you think meditation can help me?

thanks again for the wonderful reading
Blessings to you too

Oh Rising Sun
Thank you for your feeback and your kind words. More so, thank yourself and spirit for making you aware of the path you are in... and recognising why it is there for.
I am sure the spiritual development and awareness will come to you in due time. Dont force it, but recognise the signs, the subtle hints in your
gut, in your mind and in your dreams. Follow them at first instinct without doubt.
Yes, meditation, if you can do it, can help a lot. Shame I am no good at it myself :(

You look after yourself and enjoy the wonders and the different beauties of Italy

thanks again!

i think i can meditate - i´ve made yoga for 2 years and meditation was one of the things they taught me-, ironically i´m no good at tarot readings, but that's kind of obvious really, i mean, i wouldn't be asking for a reading if i knew how to do it myself. I own 2 tarot decks and i´ve tried several times to learn and read them but i´ve failed, so i gave up... oh well...
