New Moon in Libra, October 2012 (Updated)

New Moon!

This one is in my second house & CafeAstrology has something to say about this:

Heightened sensitivity to the world of the five senses, to your physical environment, and to the security you gain from the solid ground you have built for yourself is in order for this period of time. Attunement to, and appreciation of, the physical world of the senses is the focus, and this is a time to start fresh in terms of how you arrange your life in order to feel a sense of value and worthiness. Financial issues come into focus. Setting realistic financial goals, as well as formulating such things as budgets and other sensible financial planning projects, will be favoured during this time. Discovering ways to increase your income is featured. It is also a wonderful time for taking moments to pleasure yourself through earthy, tactile, and comforting endeavours.

Here is the reading from this New Moon to the next New Moon:

New Moon In Libra

 Look at the cards related to financial security appearing in this draw. Fish (financial matters), Bear (financial security) with Key are present here.  Taking moments to pleasure yourself looks like Flowers - Key -Clover here.

Theme Card:
Key
Key is the card which adds a sense of "certainity" to any card around it. Here we have this card as theme card which tells me this lunar period is very important in terms of solutions, new beginnings & finding an answer to questions I have. Its also a new start to something as told by cards around it.

This success or important solution seems to be coming from a charming lady or the sense of joy I have been having. This may be because of the Venus transiting through my first house.This will be leading to some small happiness or a surprise coming up. I'm very much liking this spread, it foretells a surprise or happy time is coming up.

Well, the Key card was very appropriate. Since the New Moon was in second house and I should have seen some money pouring in, or at least some financial situation coming to forefront, but unfortunately nothing of that sort has happened during this Lunar Month. The Key on other hand has resolved a few important matters for me in my personal life. 

Four Corners:
Flowers - Clover - Bear - Garden shows me there is some luck & Happiness, a joyful event which brings what I need in terms of power & strength, specially to do with public matters.

I did socialize a bit during this month and it turned out to be very happening.

Inner Cross:
Fish - House - Dog - Letter I see financial security & a message from a friend. Possibly two men who are friends are writing to each other, to do with a house mortgage. I don't know why I'd think of that but who knows!

Two friends, discussing a business was more appropriate. The one of the friends is a mortgage advisor so it figures. The Other one is my brother so that is also very appropriate. They have been thinking about starting a business together and since I'm friends with both of them and one of them is kind of important too, I am the third party in the triangle.

Columns:
Past: Flowers - House - Garden
Over last new moon I have had new furniture added to the house & also had a small gathering.

Present: Fish - Key - Letter
Some money or a work opportunity is definitely coming up right this week, I can tell.

I received the cheque for a large sum , the security fee refunds and the scholarship money from University.

Future: Bear - Dog - Clover
ohk. A powerful & dominating friend/man is bringing some happiness in my life.

Oh boy, does he make me happy!

Extra Information:
Flower + Bear = a dominating female, a female boss is presenting with an opportunity (Clover)
Garden + Clover luck will be found in social settings, leading to some financial gain (Fish) or a man to do with financial work.

There are two 8's which mean gathering & happy times & Two Tens which mean a visit out of city. I have plans for this weekend, so we have to see.

I did go out of city and it was a pleasant trip. The fun was in the dining out and movies I watched this month.

Update:
Before the Lunar Month ended, on the very last day I got a call from the National Internship Program where I have been selected. Its a small opportunity but it seems promising since it will be a new beginning in terms of my career and finances. The Key, very much opened up a lot of aspects in my life.

Week 38 (already?)

Time is like flying seriously!!!

Week 38

Theme card: Flowers
I have this card in this placement after a long long time. This card signifies invitations, happiness, joy, & gifts. The most common association of this card I have is with invitations & offers. There is Dog & Key around it so I believe this offer or invitation is from a friend and its very significant for me.

Most important event of this month/of the year has happened this week. This was regarding an important friend. Dog-Key

Left arm:
Tree - Mice - Dog
Loss of health, or feeling moody & gloomy (PMS?) and as a result a fall out with a friend or someone close. It often happens to me.

Tree - Snake = health issues, complication related to health
Mice - Heart = loss of love
Dog - Key = important friend

It has been happening for last three nights that I'm having weird dreams, about a friend & I am feeling weird in terms of mood. My head is usually full of worries these days & its effecting me negatively. This is also resulting in me closing off from a friend really close to me. I feel like I should not talk to anyone until i'm feeling better.

Right arm:
Key - Heart - Snake
Some very important complications in matters of love between a man & a woman.An important event of love for a woman.

Well it was expected wasn't it? I had a detailed discussion & an unexpected encounter with my first high school crush. During Pluto transits last week, I realized I hadn't really gotten over the complications we had between us, so I told him I needed a closure. We ended up on a good note. I hope we will talk again.

Other information:
Two sevens indicate a change of events.

Well, definitely yes! Things have improved.

Lets see what happens!!!

Answer Spread with Lenormand

I did this answer spread reading in the first week of May 2012. I was not sure how the spread is going to pan out in future but it seems like a good idea to put it up now.

Answer Spread

Q: What should I do in order to attract the right kind of relationship?

The two cards on the left indicate past influences, or the premise of the question.
Stars - Coffin is a place where you have lost hope, and honestly, when you lose hope you are like half-dead already. Hope is the essence of life, it keeps you going, you always strive because you know at the end of the day its going to be ok. In my past experiences and specially my really bad relationship being over and me getting nothing out of it and then for 3 years I was trying to find it again, to feel that way again, but it just did not happen. It seemed like I had given up on idea of love. The Stars-Coffin was my hope of being in love, or even feeling it again failing. So actually I was just trying to ask if I will ever start believing in love again.

The two cards in the middle indicate present influences, and answer the question.
Key - Scythe shows that some really important "surgical procedure" is going on where I'm cutting off from the negative aspects. I'm taking some sudden decisions which are really important. The Key indicates that I'm at a really important point in life.

The two cards on the right indicate future influences, or contributing factors.

Well, this looks like falling in love with a friend. 

Here is the link to the GT from May 2012 and you can see the diagonal in future cards, yes...Heart + Dog

And it turned out to be just that. If you guys remember we had Venus Retrograde in May2012 and that was precisely the time when this friend, who made a re-entry in my life and just the day when Venus turned retro, I felt a shift in my feelings towards him. I was and am scared if the shift was because of Venus not acting sober, but the retro has been over and my doubts were nothing. 

I just wanted to share, you guys know how much I love to share when a reading of mine manifests *show off*

Update:
Here is an update after 8 months. The Key always tells us what is important & what must come to pass. The key also represents solutions. The Scythe is the card which clearly means cutting off or getting rid of. The combo Key + Scythe on its own says "must get rid of". Scythe is also Jack of Diamond which represents a really aggressive person who is also blunt. 
That time when I posted this spread, I was single & not seeing anyone. I realised I had to get rid of the negativities in my life & most importantly my blunt nature where I quickly, and fairly quickly become judgemental.After this draw, the cards for future influence actually turned out to be pretty accurate *winking & skipping details*

Where is he busy tonight?

So this person I'm wondering about has been off since morning today and its very unusual for him. I just wanted to know what my cards say because I will ask him eventually and see how it matches my reading.

Q: Where is he busy tonight?

A:Tower as theme card tells me either he is at office (he is a Government Official) or he is alone and just cutting off from me.

Key-Anchor = This looks like he is busy with his work today. Something important about his work.
Clover-Heart = he is having luck with whatever he is doing.

Reflection:
Key - Heart = he is busy with something that is close to his heart
Anchor - Clover = lucky at work

Other Combinations:
Key-Tower = important task which needs to be done alone
Key-Clover = definite success

Tower - Key = success with authorities
Tower - Anchor = work place
Tower- Clover = success with authorities
Tower- Heart = coldness from love

I gather he is busy with his work so much he is just not in a mood to talk to anyone.

Update: This turned out to be his work & some personal matters he had to take care of. I ended up having a huge argument with him "how long does it take to type a text message saying "I'M busy" but he is the Tower-Heart kind of guys AKA workaholic. My idea was right, he was actually busy with work.

What to expect on the date

So Sarah and J have a date and she wants to know about it.

Q: What should I expect on my date with J?

A: The theme card is Letter, which is all about news, mail. As a theme reading I think he is going to tell her something important.
Tree - Snake looks like a complicated boredom. Tree in love and date questions has often represented something which is slow and boring. Besides that this can also be a complicated illness.
Ring-Key is a very positive sign. It looks like there is a definite stronger connection between them. The Key in the end looks very promising next to the ring.
Snake-Letter-Ring shows that this lady (Sarah) wants some information about her relationship.

Reflection:
Tree-Key shows there is definitely some growth happening, though slow but its there.

Snake - Ring shows that she is having strong connection with him.

Other combinations:

Tree-Ring = a steady never ending growth
Snake - Key = Success for the lady

Letter-Tree = a medical or sickness certificate
Letter-Snake = a letter for woman
Letter - Ring = a contract
Letter-Key = important letter

I think he will tell her about some sickness certificate or some letter concerning a health matter. Its an important thing for her to know.

Overall, The second half looks very promising for her. Lets see how it goes!

Daily Draw June 3, 2012

Weather : Partly Cloudy

Cards: Roads + Key + Dog

Key Card: Roads
Key words: Choice, alternative, short journey

Prediction: The Roads as the key card would be a choice or a decision which must be made. The Key adds a level of certainty to this. Whatever lies to left of the Key must pass and the result is whatever lies to the Right. Today looks like an important decision or a choice when it comes to a particular friend. Key + Dog also shows that its a friend who is important or who could help in making a decision.

So I have following interpretations:

An important choice has to be made concerning an important friend


A decision has to be made and a friend will be of help

I could not help but notice numbers 22 and 33 appearing in this spread. Number 18 is also equal to number 9 which is a powerful number.

What Happened in relation to cards: The situation mentioned above, the first one happened. I waited all day long for him to at least send one text but its so disappointing. I understand the big conference and everything but one text would not have hurt, would it? Friends do not do that to friends, do they? Enough with the drama, but all day long I was finding myself constantly trying to make a decision, and considering my alternatives. Its very important for me to teach him a lesson so that he stops taking me for-granted. One of the alternative was whether I should not talk to him after the conference ends and he calls me on 7th or 8th June and he finds that my cell phone has been switched off. Then I somehow control myself from texting him and I go have fun travelling around till 24th of June and keep him wondering wherever I have been. Fascinating. Or may be I should just take his call and talk to him in my coldest tone and pretend that I don't care about his presence or absence. Must make a choice, its important.

 Observation: Card 2+3 is always a good description together for card 1. 

Daily Draw June 2, 2012

Weather : Cloudy

Daily Draw June 2, 2012

Cards: Key + Stars + Lady

Key Card: Key

Key words: Guidance, new path, success, hope

Prediction: The Key is a very important card and it always unlocks something in our lives. The card which is modifying Key is Stars. So the nature of this answer or solution is abstract, in terms of hope and new path. Together they say finding a way to a new path or finding hope. Whatever lies to the left of teh Key is something which will definitely happen. Key is the solution, the answer, the key to a locked door. I have the key to finding hope for myself (if the Lady is me) or a psychic or astrologer Lady brings me some answers (Stars + Lady).

What Happened in relation to cards: This turned out to be my research on which house and which part of my natal chart the upcoming lunar eclipse would be falling. I came across a blog which is a combination of tarot and astrology. A good read for horoscope. I was on ipad otherwise I would have saved the link for sharing.

update : Here is the blog I liked for this tarotscope.

Observation: Lady is not always me in the daily draws. It has represented several women in the daily draws. The card which is next to Lady is usually a description as to who she can be.

New Moon in Gemini Reading (Updated)

We had a Solar Eclipse with the New Moon in Gemini on 20th of this month. The New Moon was at 0 degrees Gemini I pulled two sabian Symbols for last week and this week, both in Gemini. This New Moon, energized with the Solar eclipse was in my 9th house of higher education, travel and foreign matters. I am expecting to make some travel plans this month, and I hope that it happens just as I want it but nothing has been confirmed yet. The New Moon reading says the following.

New Moon in Gemini 2012

The First card usually expresses your thoughts at the moment. The 27-LETTER shows that I have been anticipating a news which I am. The Clouds and Bear around it shows that the news is expected to clear up some doubts and provide me with the strength which I need. The Mountain however, is blocking the news.

This was right since its been five days now and the expected news has not yet arrived.

The Mountain in the middle will cause delays. The central card anchors the reading and this time the anchor is the Mountain which is card of obstacles and delays.

Past: Letter - Clouds - Garden
There have been anticipated a news which is causing trouble, confusion among me and my peers.

Present: Bear - Mountain - Scythe
A lot of power and strength is required to get over the mountain and make a quick decision.

Future: Roads - Child - Key
A decision promises a fresh beginning and new start.

Rows:
Letter - Bear - Roads = A news about someone strong and protective is making me make a choice
Clouds - Mountain - Child  = I have no idea how to get to the other side of the mountain where my new start is awaiting me.
 Garden - Scythe - Key = a cancelled event, cutting back from socialising will bring some solutions, answers.

Diagonals: Letter - Mountain - Key
The delayed information will arrive, but after a while.

Roads - Mountain - Garden
The decision is tough one to make but it will bring joy.

Letter - Child - Garden
A news about a gathering involving young children.

Roads - Clouds - Key
The uncertain options are making the answers unclear. No options, no answers, no certainties.

Letter - Roads + Scythe
a news about parting ways will come up unexpectedly.

Garden -Key + Bear
some event is definitely happening and it will bring security, strength and power.

Update June 3, 2012
Delays have been in everything I'm doing. The email I sent to my instructor which included my almost completed project was not delivered and I got late by two freaking days. (Letter-Mountain)


The longer it takes the Letter to get past the Mountain, the longer my confusions will stay (Clouds) because I need the instructor to have a look at my developed project and let me know if he needs any modifications. There is so much going on and its not going on like it should rather too slow. I have been facing delays in everything. The energy of the Mountain is risen really high around the Full Moon coming on June 4. 


I also had some data copied from the Uni lab into my flash drive and after an hour and half, when I came back home and checked it, there was NOTHING in the flash drive. The quicker I need the data, the more delays  faced. Turned out Uni was closed for the weekend. Further delays. I'm feeling even more crabbier now (Bear-Mountain). 

Daily Draw: Key + Stars + Lilies

This looks like a really nice day. The key usually opens up something for us, and here the two other cards are nice, where Stars represent guidance, inspiration, hope and wishes and Lilies can be an important person, family, peace of harmony.

Overall, a good day, I should meditate today because it looks promising.

This turned out to be a very important heart-to-heart conversation with a really close friend.I was feeling relieved  because I thought because of our misunderstanding I've lost him forever.

Week 19 (Updated)

Weekly draw for Week 19

The central card is Snake which represents a lady, a trouble or a detour. The Snake and Clouds is a couple and the Rider suggests they might be some visitors.

Coffin - Flower - Rider

Some ending is definitely happening and something pleasant is coming up. The Coffin-Flowers also suggest some recovery from illness.

I believe the recovery pertains to the emotional healing (Flowers-Moon) from last few weeks. Things are getting better both externally and internally.


May 10, 2012
The Snake was representing me. I can say this because I was talking on phone (Rider) with a friend (Clouds) and he said why you always talk the way I cannot understand its so complicated (Rider-Snake). Clouds was the thunderstorm in the background when we were talking. 

Flower-Rider might be a gift or an invitation coming up.

May 12, 2012
A female cousin of mine has come to stay with us for a while (Rider + Snake). She is emotionally disturbed these days , I guess this will help her recover a bit.

Clouds - Moon - Key

Some emotional disturbances, some unclear dreams and problems which will eventually be resolved.

May 12, 2012
This reminds me of my dream from last night which was a strange one. I was having a baby girl in my arms and I was feeding her through a milk bottle. There was also a cousin of mine in the dream who is also a good friend of mine. It was a strange dream. All I remember from the dream is the baby girl. This is what I would call, an important (Moon+Key) but unclear dream (Moon+Clouds).


The Sky has literally not been clear for last three days. Every night its been raining so there is practically Clouds +Moon out at night. 

May 13, 2012
My team lost the league champions title and that too to rival Football club. This was my Key+Coffin moment. Their success was our loss. Key + Coffin, a literal loss of title.

3 positive, 2 negative and 2 neutral cards

Overall a mixed week.

Another Dream interpretation reading

I had another disturbing dream last night which is keeping upset even after waking up and trying to forge it. This dream had one main character who was a friend in high school and he had a crush on me. I on the other hand was more interested in his friend. So after many years we came in touch last year when he invited me to his wedding and he was insisting that I must come. I was happy for him. In my dream things were different. I had joined high school again to improve my grades (which I have always wanted) and this time he was the teacher (wow) besides that there were two more people in that dream, my high school boyfriend, and the guy I was with few months ago.Both appeared for very short time . So my past was kind of theme. 

Q: What did this dream mean to tell me?

dream interpretation

Row 1: What was the Dream about:

The theme was my relationships, and them too romantic ones, from past. The Key indicates there were some important lessons in this dream about love and relationships. Ring is the first card which represents your current thoughts, so yes I was wondering all morning, if he still thinks about me. My best friend(our mutual friend too) says he does, although he is married now and has a kid.

Row 2: What the dream symbols mean:

Rider + Lilies = a man of foreign origin. Rider+Lilies has represented one of the guys from the dream. He is older and wiser than me and it was more like a Ring+Lilies relationship. The Stars symbolise new path, guidance and hopes. I believe someone will come towards me, who can bring me some guidance and hope.

Row 3: How the dream affects my waking life:

Snake - Storks - Man

There are complications which will resolve and a change is needed regarding a man. 

Columns: Past: Ring - Rider - Snake

There has been a relationship which ended badly.

Present: Key - Lilies - Storks

A definite help for moving on once the key lessons have been learnt.

Future: Heart - Stars - Man

new love, with a new man.

Corners:

Ring + Man + Heart + Snake

This is a man who is bound in a relationship , which makes our love life complicated.

I know who this is about. 

Central Cross:

Key + Rider + Stars + Storks

There is sure arrival of some guidance, hope and a change.

Diagonals: Ring + Heart with Storks a definite change in love and relationships

Snake + Man and Key , a Man with a lady or a man who is complicated or troublesome, will prove helpful.

Over all what I gather from this spread is that there is going to be a change in my life which involves a man. The cards which touch this Man are new (Stars , Lilies, Storks) I have no idea who he is. 

Project Dream Interpretation (updated)

I am a dreamer, a heavy dreamer, that's what I call it. I have a Neptune influence stronger since I was 13years old and I have a fantastic mechanism in my head which makes me remember my dreams for years. There are many childhood dreams which I can recall right now. So my dreams have always been an integral part of my life since forever. Sometimes its a down time and there are no dream recalls, which upsets me. I'm so used to seeing them every night. Sometimes there are more than one and I would remember each incident from each one of them. So the long story short, I love my dreams. Their absence makes me miss them.

So when dreams are an important part of your life, so does their symbolism and interpretation. I think this is what keeps me interested in them, the solving the mystery part. Over the long time and my practice with interpreting them, I have found that the main thing about any dream is the overall feeling. The minute you wake up and this feeling you have, yes that's the root of it. I have had this really amazing yet confusing dream last night and was very much interested in knowing what it wants to let me know.Another reason this dream was very important because sometimes when I'm very much disappointed in my waking life, I call out to my soul mate in dreams, I mean I meditate before sleeping to invite him in to my dreams, and last night he appeared.

I was inspired by Madame Seaqueen's Trigger Layout, therefore, I first chose to do a box of 9, but then rather did the Trigger Layout.

While putting the cards down, I focused on the events in the dream. The people , the colours, the feeling, the events in the dream. So here is the position meanings:

1--2--3--4

5--6--7--8

9-10-11-12

Cards 1-2-3-4 = What the dream was about

Cards 5-6-7-8= What the dream symbols meant

Cards 9-10-11-12= How it is/will effect the waking life

The central Trigger Row is the key. No cards were pre-chosen. 

I will first write what the dream was. So I had a one-to-one self-talk session for the first time last night. I put my thoughts on recording, for myself, so that I will listen to it later. It was like I was talking to a friend, out loud, I'm voicing my concerns and my opinions about myself. I'm having some rough time for about few weeks now. This self-talk did help me a lot. After that I was about to sleep and I called on to my soulmate, like I usually do and somewhere in there in middle of it, I slept.

The Dream:

The dream as I remember it started with me in my parents home. There was an event going on, I think my brother was getting married. This guy was our guest. He was in the room which is away from rest of the house. I went in there and somehow we ended up finding a connection between us. I was staring at his face and he was staring at me and then he was kissing me and I got up from the couch and started looking for something. Someone saw us kissing a while ago and all of sudden someone came there, and gave some negative remarks about us. I wanted to say that nothing wrong was going on between us but my voice did not come out because in my head I said "I was kissing him how can I deny, no one will understand". It was more like he was told to leave immediately and I was wondering what happened because no one is going to believe me that I had some soul connection with him, we were not just playing around. Then he left, he was hurt, I was hurt and quiet and everyone else was busy with the bride or something.

So the feel of the dream was a sense of having him, feeling love, feeling those emotions intensely and then losing him just because others won't approve.

Cards:

Row 1: What the dream was about:

The First card is the Heart, which definitely shows that there was love (lovers) in dream. The Mice right next to it brings the idea of stealing, or doing something without letting anyone know. The Coffin sums up the painful feeling, the loss. The Scythe in the end however assures that I recovered quickly. I did not cry or scream or anything, I was just quiet, wondering about how he made me feel. So this row has excellently summed it up.

Row 2: The meaning:

Sun -Rider looks a good news, Rider looks like someone is coming towards me, but what's worrying me is the Snake and Tower. This could mean that someone will bring some happiness in my life, but may be I'm too cold and distant for him. In the dream too, I was feeling like I was not warming up. I was mainly quiet in the dream. The Tower also suggests that I need to stand up for myself, I should have stood up for him in my dream, I should have made him stay. Now I'm realising why the dream left me uneasy, because I did not do the right thing. Just because someone won't approve didn't mean he had to leave, right?

Row 3: How it effects the waking life:

In waking life, I have got a confirmation that I should carry on with my self-talk sessions more often since they are opening up the emotional blockages I have in me. I'm usually not good at voicing my concerns, I will rather keep them juggled in my tiny head. So this looks like an affirmation that I need to open myself up, more in terms of emotions.

The spread looks positive even though the dream was fairly negative. I have actually liked interpreting my dream with this spread. I will see if I can get a few more (dreams) to practice the spread on.

So far, very glad I did it!


Update July 09, 2012


It was literal, and I mean very literal. I'm dating this guy, someone who made a re-entry in my life and just the day Venus Retrograde started I had a shift in my feelings. Throughout the Venus Retrograde I was scared if the feeling goes away when the retrograde ends, and if I end up hurting him again. After the Venus Retro I have realized that I'm actually in love with him. I have not felt this way about him before but now I do and it feels amazing. The most creepy part of the story about this dream, the guy in the dream was wearing a Maroon shirt and this guy, on our first date was also wearing a maroon shirt! 

Key + Dog + Garden: Sex and the City (2008)

April 24, 2012

I'm not really a movies person, I am more a "books" person. To me words are deeper and more expansive that the movies which are usually based on these books /words.

When I drew these cards for today, I knew I was going to find some revelation today which has something to do with friends.Not one friend but many or may be all of them (Garden represents "many" as an adjective). 

Last night was a depressive one. Its just one of those phases, but its getting worse and worse.

I decided to give myself a good day, watch a fun movie and then just stay in bed all day long, not worrying about anything at all. I ended up watching three movies in a row, and the last one I watched was Sex and the City. This movie reminded me of my daily draw today. Friends are what we have in our bad times, people we can rely on, turn to when there is no one to help us get up again. My favourite scene was when Big tries to apologise to Carrie in the middle of the road and carrie is hugging Charlotte tight and Charlotte is almost crying but she still manages to scold Big, and then at the end she takes her anger out on Big for hurting her friend. That was really cute. 

This daily draw is all about that wonderful person in our lives, or a group of them (Garden) who we can rely on. Its very important to understand their importance in our lives, and to hold on to them and not letting them go when we think we do not need them any more, because few years down the lane, in one weak moment of loneliness and depression, we do realize that we do need them.

They say nothing lasts forever; dreams change, trends come and go, but friendships never go out of style. -Carrie Bradshaw , Sex and the City (2008)-

week 17 (Updated)

Theme Card:

This week looks all about money but in a good way, since the surrounding cards look supporting.

Fish + Man = A man who is good at investments, an entrepreneur, a business man
Fish + Book = secret finances, money kept away, business books

Man - Fish - Book = A man who studies finance or who is a publisher or something to do with studies. I guess I have an idea who he is.

April 25,2012
I have just finally made the payment for the project modules.I have been unable to make any decision for about a month now and I really have no idea that how I ended up deciding because of this Man who does these small projects independently. I'm just keeping my fingers crossed that he does not break my trust just for this one time.

Left arm:

Whip - Clover - Man
Cheerful conversations with a man

Whip + Key = important conversations that must happen
Clover + Heart = luck in matters of heart
Man + Book = A man I know about, a man who studies, is introvert

so there are some important and definite conversations with a man who is an introvert or who studies. These discussions will be happy and cherished ones.

April 23, 2012
Whip+Key = Yes very very important discussion which went wrong. wrong as in heated. I wanted to discuss it calmly, easily but guess I'm not a very tolerant person. It ended up as a rather heated argument.


Had some argument with my Dad over last three days but I did realize there was a need for proper conversation with sitting down, controlling the emotions and then finally putting my words out in a proper manner , which I did, and me and my family ended up coming to a resolution for the problem which has been holding us apart for quite sometime now. 


April 24, 2012: Clover + Heart ; Clover + Man (heart to heart with Jay).
Had some Heart - to -Heart with Jay. It helped me a lot recovering from whatever I was going through. Interestingly he was studying for his lecture next day when I rang him at midnight (Man + Book).


April 25, 2012: Man + Fish + Book = payment acknowledgement receipt from him
He rang me today because I deposited the money for the coding part of the project I got done and he sent me the Payment acknowledgement, besides that he assured me that things will be sorted in time. I'm much much relaxed now.

Right arm:

Book + Heart + Key

This looks like a love which is not yet known, but is important.

Book + Man = A man not known yet
Heart + Clover = lucky love
Key + Whip = a solution which arrives for the second time, clearing up of a new opportunity

This looks like a week where a man about whom I don't know yet will bring some new chance regarding something pleasant, but there is an element of secrecy around this man.

April 27,2012
Book + Man ; Book + Heart 
I today finally received a reply from M.A, yaay!


April 28, 2012
Heart + Whip ; Heart + Clover
SO I finally rang "M" and we did argue a little about the last time we had a fight and then everything was fine. Lucky day indeed!
There is also an interesting thing that I drew these cards from the Psychic tarot:

Throat chakra - memories of love - love begins

I have been meditating a lot on the throat chakra recently and I have realized that it helps me being calm and collected. The love begins is at the end, which looks promising. 

Message in blog header!

I have been thinking about putting up a header picture on my blog since after I put one on the Tarot Blog.
I was not sure which cards to put up there, since its about the very first impression when someone visits the blog.

I asked my cards what should be the message in the header:

Fox - Book - Cross - Mountain - Key

I was sort of disappointed to look at so many negative cards, and the Cross sitting right in the middle, but then it hit me. The message was clear, exploring the knowledge and the hidden truth is a tough and painful task. One has to be patient and carefully climb the Mountain of Learning and in the very end you will find all the answers and you will realize that the journey has been worth while. The Key at the end also suggests that there are no short-cuts. You Must go through these tough tasks in order to find the key to the wisdoms.

Fox are the intelligent workers, in some schools they are taken as free-lance working. In my readings too I have seen Fox as coming on a very sharp minded person. With the Book it usually means to explore the hidden, the unknown wisdoms. Fox and Key suggest using the ability to put story together to find meanings. Book and Cross puts you to test your knowledge and practice often will help you climbing the Mountain through what you have learnt. These long-standing problems will put one to test his knowledge and abilities and eventually find the solution.

Love Reading with Madame Seaqueen's Trigger Layout

Here is the spread. I have already done a reading with this spread. Worked like a charm.

This question is from Sarah about her love life since she is single for about a year now and the guys she is seeing are not generating any interest. She asked me that she wants to know about her love life and if she will soon feel "the feeling" again.
We are setting the time frame as:
Immediate: Next three weeks
Soon : Till May 23 (two months).

I'm choosing the card 24- HEART for significator.

The cards are:
Dog - Garden- Man - Birds
Key - Heart - Lady - Roads
Book- Sun - Mountain - Lilies

Past: Some friends (Dog-Garden) helped her unlocking some secrets, and also helped her becoming more open. The Key to left of Book unlocks the secret.

Present: She is having some non-serious flirtations and she is quite positive and optimistic about finding the love of her life just now, one of these days.Her thoughts are on socialising and making more public appearances and her feeling are energetic.In Andy's Small Lenormand Theory, Garden near Heart signifies an open relationship , no strings attached (This one is quite true!)

Immediate: Wow, we see a man coming up soon who probably makes her feel stressed or blocked or its a man with whom she sees no future. The Mountain explain that the Love will be delayed or blocked over next two weeks.

Soon: We wee her nervous because of a decision she has to make about a fling or a wise decision.

The Trigger row: Key - Heart - Lady - Roads
She had a sure help from a friend/a boyfriend in past who helped her learn about love or help her open up. She is quite hopeful and optimistic right now and thinks about socialising and opening herself more. In next two weeks we see her with a man but they are heading a difficult phase or she is facing an obstacle regarding her feeling. He is on top of her, so she has him in her thoughts, but her feelings feel blocked or difficult to express. In the future we see she has to make a choice, or a decision. The Birds and Lilies show she might have more than one options and she might be seeing more than one guy in next two months. Lilies is an affair, Lilies can signify a man who is older than her, Queen of Pentacles and King of Spades can signify an affair. Birds is a couple, and Roads shows she has choices.

Answer: She will soon have some alternatives and choices but she would have to make a decision.

Update April 26,2012
Its been longer than two weeks and I totally forgot to update this one. The row Man-Woman-Mountain, it did signify that there is a man who is her friend, more like a long-distance thing, but she is just not interested. The guy is good and everything but she finds it difficult to see them together as a couple.


We should wait for the Lilies guy.


Update May 17, 2012
The Lilies guy has popped up in her life. She was totally nervous about taking a decision when this guy asked her out, but then she took her chances and they have had two dates and things look favourable so far. She just asked me to do another spread for her now.

Mountain + Key: Definite delays!

Note:
These meanings and associations are personal, learnt through time and experience. Your cards might show you the meaning of this combination in a different way.Last, but not the least, this is not the only meaning associated with this combination. 

Mountain is the "hard" card. It brings delays, burdens, blockages that are longer lasting and stresses you out (just like climbing a mountain will). The word "delays" is associated with this card because whenever we have to climb a mountain, it slows our speed, besides adds extra miles to our journey. Its the "tough" card. 


This card can also represent barriers, which can be both for good and bad as well. Whatever is behind this card is being blocked. As a person, I will call this person stubborn.

The Key card is the Yes card of Lenormand juts like Mountain is "not now" card. This card unlocks things, brings answers, solutions, confirmations, the surety, it is something that will sure happen. This card tells us what will happen with certainty. That is why its a "yes" card.


I was going through "A playing card Reader's Notebook" by Kapherus  and I read this for Eight of Diamonds "From an older meaning of "Spectacles" the 8 of Diamond denote "being insightful" or "looking into the future".


This card tells you what is coming up (cards to the right) after you have gone through what you must (cards to the left). 
The cards together can show:

Definite delays. No matter how many efforts you put in, there will be blockages. You will have to be patient and wait if you want a resolution to your problem. You have no other option!

This literally happened to me the time when I got them together in a daily draw. I had no choice but to be patient and face delays. 

Week 11 (Update)

Ring -Child - Lady  - Whip - Key - Anchor - Letter

Whip in the middle suggests some important discussions this week, emphasized by Key next to it. Whip-Lady suggests these discussions will be by me, or mine with a sensitive, young, naive lady (Child-Lady).

Left arm:
Ring+Child+Lady+Whip

A new contract or relationship seems to be developing for me, but that will leave me a bit argumentative or some important discussions about this matter.

Right arm:
Whip - key - Anchor - Letter
Ring+Anchor appeared yesterday as my daily draw and since I do not have a job, I look at anchor as something stable and long-lasting. The Anchor+Letter and Letter+Ring looks like a message or communication about a stable relationship which I discuss with my brother a lot these days about his relationships which tend to be pretty short-term, besides all his efforts. Key-Lady looks like it will resolve things for me.

Adding the numbers: 173 = 83 = 11-Whip. Another emphasis on the discussions and documents. Nothing about the project document I hope!

Update: The week was marked by discussions and physical energy I had (or the lack of it). Some discussions did get heated but they gave me a food for thought, specially a discussion between me and my brother about my job (Whip-Key-Anchor). Lady-Key looks like I have found some important answers to the kind of life I want to have. Ring-Letter and Child-Anchor probably relates to the articles and documents I read about vision board, you can see one at the bottom of my blog, and how to make them grow into something stable and long-lasting (Anchor).

General reading with 3x3

After I did those two readings with 3x3 spread, my friend wanted a general reading of his life.A snapshot of my situation is what I call it.

The most astonishing part is we first decided to take Heart out as pre-chosen significator, but then I decided otherwise and went along with a general. The Heart card has appeared in the centre, emphasizing that the cards are aware that current focus is love.


First card: Scythe
At the present moment he is thinking about getting rid of something, something that is no longer needed.He intends to make a decision and a rather quick one.

Lets look at Rows:
1: He intends to make a suddden decision of cutting back at his social life and bring about some changes that will bring improvement in his life.This is true because he thinks he spends too much time just socialising among people who serve him no good.

2: He is having some lovely chats with some one who is financially independent. The emotional side of Fish (water) also mixes well with the Heart card. His love life is sort of going nice, but a little anxiousness is there.

3: He is looking for a solution which unlocks his path and let him decide what he needs to do.

Columns: 
Past: He cut back with conversations with a really clever one. He thinks the conversations were too much fake and not what they seemed like.

Present: He is having lovely interactions with people which is making him realize some positive things about himself.

Future: A clear financial improvement. An increase of wealth through more than one alternative.

Diagonals: Scythe - Heart - Roads = A heartache made him separate paths.

Storks - Heart - Fox = Some changes in love life have made him cautious.

Scythe - Fish - Fox = Sudden sense of clarity. Cutting at the blurriness presented by water in Fish is cleared out and Fox is presenting logic and guarding up for self-interest.

Storks - Birds - Roads = Changes have made him nervous about what needs to be done, which option to choose. (notice the Twos in all three cards, two birds, two owls, two paths) faced with choices.

Scythe - Key - Storks = A sudden solution which brings changes.

Fox - Garden - Roads = Many treacheries and betrayals made him separate paths with someone.

Here in the situation we can see some positivity going on in present and improvements in future. The Queen and King of Diamond can be a couple so I do not look at Roads as a decision, instead its reaching a solution. It looks like a positive spread for future. Another thing I noticed was that he has two 8's (of spades and Diamonds) in present column: which means according to some authors, a brief affair which causes regrets and this is exactly true for him right now. Also 8 of Diamonds and several Person Cards (we have five here) means a social gathering. I think it will be in future.

 I wish him luck and happiness.

An awesome love reading!

Declaration; I do not own this spread, I saw it on a blog in the early days when I was learning different spreads. Unfortunately, I could not find that blog afterwards.
Edit: Found it. Here is the original blog by Madam Seaqueen

However I altered the positions for the cards.I will explain why after I've explained the positions.

1. His Thoughts
2. His Feelings
3. What she does not know
4. What can bring them together (Bridge the gap)
5. The future on this course

Layout:

--------1-------------------
3------Man------4------Lady------5
--------2-------------------

So the man is my best friend's new friend who has asked her out twice. They have an amazing click and they fit together anything. She asked me to do a spread for her.

1. Key: There is a feeling of finding a solution, and answer which can unlock the doors for him. He thinks she is the answer to some questions he has been looking for.

She confirmed that he tells her she is the only one he talks to so regularly because she understands him, his humour and his problems.

2. Anchor: The Anchor card often reminds me of Capricorn, stable, structured, determined. This is what he is like. The Anchor shows he has some stable feelings for her. He feels secure with her. Anchor is a card which tells us something that is long-lasting, which puts a stop to movements (Anchor holds the ship in place). She seems like his personal harbour.

3. Ring: This can be a relationship he has been in before. Ring can also represent a deep devotion, a bond so strong. May be she does not understand but he feels a great bond with her. The Ring is however making me think,if he has been hiding about a relationship he has had before.

4. Stars: Hopes, dreams, new path. The Stars are my "wish card". Stars rule the 11th house of the Zodiac which also rules groups, friends and acquaintances. The Stars in this position tell me they need to dream together, have faith in each other and also the relationship. The Stars also represent new path, they need to move to a new path in order to bridge their gap.

5. Sun: Wonderful. Its a really positive spread with NO negative cards at all. Sun card represents true love as well. Sun is the card of energy, success with luck, abundance and optimism. If they stay on this course of faith and hope, they will have a beautiful future together.

This spread has made me so happy today. For the very first time I've seen such a positive spread where there is no negativity involved. If he brings the commitment(Ring) and she brings the energy (Sun) together they can create a new path to the stars (Stars).
