Daily Draw: Cross + Lilies + Flowers

Weather: Sunny / Cloudy
Cards: Cross + Lilies + Flowers (Boquet)

Key Card:  Cross
Key words: Burden, pain


Prediction:
Lilies represent sexuality, passionate energy. Next to the Cross being key card, it looks like there is suffering because of extra/passionate/sexual energy. With Flowers next to Lilies, I want to term this a booty call since Flowers represent a visit or an invitation of some sort. But Cross is the key card, it will be a painful or rather something that causes displeasure.

What Happened in relation to cards: Hard to jot this one down without getting my blog rated for sexual content. It was related to minor discomfort.

Weekly draw for Nov 12 - Nov 18 2012 (Updated)

Weekly Draw

Theme: Storks, change, improvement, move. I love this card, for one, its 17 which is my birth date, second this card is all about change in a good way so being a change-lover I super love having this card. The Fox on one side and the Flowers on the other tell me this change this week will be a positive one, may be even an opportunity comes up but I find myself cautious when it comes to this change. A hesitance to change may be!

Yes, I have a news on the career front & things are rolling in my personal life too, a definite improvement. 

Left arm:
Sun - Garden - Fox
I gather I have to be cautious about my optimism or my over-enthusiasm in public. The Fox is closer to Garden so it can be all the wrong people I happily surround myself with!

This must be talking about the event I had to attend, a job fair. The Fox was to be sure and alert about the possibilities (Fox-Flowers) and how to tactically proceed to score a place.

Right arm:
Flowers - Moon - Man
Flowers - Moon is a night time fun, a date night or just happiness plain and good. Moon - Man tells me its an emotional/dreamy man. He mirrors Sun too so he is cheerful and optimistic.

I love this part. This man is someone I have been trying to "open up" for quite a while now & I like the fact that its working, finally. The Moon relates to the night time because they say, late night conversations are the sincerest conversations.

Other information:
We have Two Queens so gossip and Two Aces, so authority and leadership (may be an authoritative man who is cheerful) and Two 8's which symbolize happy times.

I have had fun. I attended two job fairs, two family dinners and lots of gossip. 

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.

Daily Draw October 11, 2012

FLOWERS + HOUSE + RING

Theme card:Flowers or Bouquet, means joy, happiness, a surprise, invitation or a pleasant lady.
Flower + House is a man or a woman, a family oriented woman, an invitation comes from a man, or a family invitation. Flowers +Ring is a wedding present, an invitation. This combo can play out as many things but I believe its a man & a woman developing a deeply connected feeling.

RESULTS:
So I proposed to my friend, that he should marry my friend! This friend of mine is a sweet, young lady, I remember during the Cartomante Cabinet exercises, I associated Flowers/Bouquet card with her. She is charming, sweet & very generous soul. A typical Archer Girl. Then, Queen of Spades is a woman who has lost something, & this friend of mine has lost her mother recently.
The guy friend I proposed to, is a very family-oriented guy. I made this proposal to him when he was telling me his personal life goal was to be a good father.This explains why he is King of Hearts & House in lenormand. the Flower-Ring is my marriage proposal/invitation combo but I did not know it will pan out like this!

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!!!

Week 35 predictions (Updated)

week 36 predictions

Theme : Fox
Key words: Slyness, deception.
This week's theme is slyness & deception. I need to stay alert & on my guard for this. The Fox can be me as well, being smart, playing the game, which I have just learnt in the last week.
Scythe is cutting at Fox, so some mental clarity is expected this week where I will be able to see through some lies or deception. There is Fox - Snake which is back biting  or hidden danger or a sly woman. The Scythe is cutting at it, so I'm sure I'll be safer if I'm watching out.

I had such a busy week that I literally had no time to update this. The Fox has clearly be me, I have been feeling quite "foxy" these days. I feel like I can see through lies & deceptions & I can rather map my way out more cleverly. There is a lady, an older lady who looks quite worries about my behaviour regarding a man involved & she might be back biting, I cannot really say.

Left arm:
Flower - Letter - Scythe

An unexpected happy invitation or a letter/news/information which comes out of blue. The Scythe is cutting at the Fox, so I can say some clarity will be evident in a letter or a news. This will be happy news.


Flowers - Lilies = a couple, sexual pleasure
Letter - Dog = news from/about a friend
Scythe - Snake = cutting off from a woman, end to a complication between a man & a woman

I have had a news about a friend this week which turned out to be a fake news about his interview & being short listed at a firm. Besides that I have been having great time, having so much fun. 

Right arm:
Snake - Dog - Lilies
There are complications in platonic friendship between a man & a woman.

Well, this turned out to be an older man, & things are not quite straight with him. I'm mentally too pre-occupied though, to understand.

Extra information: There are two Queens so I expect some gossip & chit chat specially with my Gemini cousin coming over,its totally expected.

Week 32 forecast (updated)

Week 32

The theme of the week is solitude, loneliness. The surrounding cards look so lovely that I'm sure it won't be in a negative manner.
Tower - Heart tells me I will be feeling good being alone.
Tower - Flowers implements the same things.

Well to be honest I don't know if this hadn't been the Tower then what else would describe the situation so well. This Tower card has made me realize my self-worth & an ability to not put up with people's unacceptable behaviour. Detachment is a better word here. I'm perfectly comfortable with this though.

Tower - Rider can be an official message coming this week.
Tower - Lilies can be withdrawal and rest
Tower - Moon is emotionally closed off and coldness.
Tower - Storks finally means by the end of the week I'd have charged my batteries up and will be ready for a change.

The official message or the news I got was not so official. It was rather a helpful step. Most part of the week I was resting & taking a breath from the worries from last week. I agree I have been emotionally a bit cold this week and by the end of the week, I'm ready to flee.

Left arm:
Rider - Lilies - Flowers
This looks like a nice message, or a visit from a couple (King and Queen of Spades). Besides that this can be a nice message or nice easy conversations with a male and a female.

Other combinations:
Rider - Storks = a change which is brought on by a message.
Lilies - Moon = emotional/dreamy man.emotional balance and harmony
Flowers - Heart = a date, a lovely meeting/surprise

I have had several messages coming up this week. No couple visited us but I've had some cheerful conversations with a nice older/mature advisor sort of man.I'm not that surprised because of Transiting Jupiter Conjunct my Venus. 

Right arm:
Heart - Moon - Storks
This looks like emotions taking a flight. A heightened sense of joy.Emotions are improved, changed and it feels good.

Storks - Rider = a change which is on way
Moon - Lilies = peaceful and harmonious emotions. sexual emotions/dreams
Heart - Flowers = happy love

Again I will associate this to the Jupiter (expansion) touching Venus (love & beauty) in my chart. I have been taking a lot care of myself, eating healthy, exercise, sleeping well and everything. Its very important right now during this transit. My skin looks good and I feel good about myself.

This looks like a good week. I will be spending most of my time alone, but its good in a way because of all the happy and positive cards around me. There are two Queens so I expect a lot of gossip again this week. There is a King and Queen again having conversations (Rider) which looks positive. There is also a Jack and a Queen having Moon between them so I expect some emotional talk with someone younger (if the Queen of Hearts is me).

There has been lots of gossiping going on LOL and yes I did talk some emotional stuff with a friend of mine who is younger than me. He is going through a rough time. I'm amazed the way incorporating Playing Cards inserts for the court cards work so well.

There are four cards from suit of hearts in the spreads, which makes the week kind of emotional and relationships oriented.

Result day!

What is the worst part of taking an exam? Getting the result (story of a student).

My friend's result is going to be announced tomorrow, matters a lot to him so he asked me if he will get anything good to tell

reading for result day

Tower as the middle card looks good, specially with Book, it means the university. There are Flowers on the other side. Tower means official or authority but it also means independence and self-reliance.

Lilies - Flowers means a head-to-head or lots of happiness and harmony.
Flowers - Tower is promotion in my LWB
Tower - Book  is my combination for University and
Book - Ship is a change not known yet.

So basically I see excitement he is anticipating an improvement and there is coming a change, of permanent nature, which is not revealed yet.

Other combinations:
Lilies - Tower = Excitement with work, official man
Lilies - Book = a man who has well-learnt
Lilies - Ship = a change for a man, a man travelling

Flowers - Book = surprise
Flowers - Ship = great happiness on the way

I gather he will not exactly have a great news to tell but he might get a few papers passed to tell. Bottom line, he won't be the happiest with his result, but he will get lost of inspiration, excitement, happiness and motivation to re-appear in those he couldn't get through this time.

There are two 10s in this reading, and both two tens usually mean a change of scene, a move.

Say good luck to my friend!

Update: I was very right in this. He is not the happiest with his result, but he has been motivated on a different level for taking another stab at it. It was exactly how I put it. Not what he wanted to know, but not exactly worst of the times too.

Week 30 forecast! (Updated)

Does not look like a good week at all. There are problems, worries, the Cross-Coffin combo and negative cards like Whip and Fox.

The Fox as theme card suggests this week I need to stay warned about betrayals and lies.

The Cross and Coffin are surrounding the Fox which looks like something bad to me.

Since the Coffin comes after the Fox, I believe some lies and betrayals will end. The Fox is after Cross which makes these important.

Left arm:
Tower - Child - Cross
This looks like an organization to do with children, a youth welfare org or a school which is under trouble. The Tower-Cross is not good because it adds an element of problem with authority.

This turned out to be my supervisor finally saying he has no time to take a look at my project's prototype. This actually gives me a problem when for the first time I'm presenting an unchecked project to the panel and i have no clue if its up to the mark. Too bad!

Right Arm:
Coffin - Whip - Flowers
This looks like some troubles ending and then cheerful conversations by the end of the week.

The trouble and the hurtful discussions are over now I guess. There have been lots of discussions whatsoever, and I feel glad I had them.

Over all it looks as bad as it can get.

There are 2 6s = malicious actions / Kapherus = things coming together
and 2 9s= some money received / Kapherus = higher education

The malicious actions I heard about someone spreading some bad words about someone very dear to me, they did not even have a reason for this. No money received :(

Week 27 weekly forecast

weekly forecast for Week 27

Theme card: Anchor = work, stagnation, home-point

This card to me means routine tasks, since I do not work, I usually take that as the routine I have which included day-to-day stuff. Anchor since it represents routine, it says "stagnation" to me. When this card appears in middle of weekly draw, I know there is nothing exciting happening this week.Its same old boring stuff.

Left arm:

Rider - Sun - Cross

A happy news, or a visitor from south, but the presence of Cross indicates something not quite well. The Cross comes after the Sun, therefore, it would mean the happiness or Success received due to Sun will not last the longest.

Update: Sun-Cross, the heat wave of July was a real test today . Its so hot in this part of the world, I don't know how I'm to survive rest of the month.Besides that I have had an offer, something special, but I'm not sure the decision would be an easy one for me.


Right arm:
Flowers- Fish - Clover
The second half looks promising. There can be some monetary present, or a small increase in joy, happiness. Flowers also represent a gathering or a small party, so I'm looking forward to the second half of the week.

There are two 6's in the spread which denote success and things coming together and two 9's which are higher education. I assume it means things regarding my studies will come together as I'm adjusting my routine after I'm back from holidays.

This ended up being a really nice date, with this really nice guy. I kind of like him.

Continued reading from March-May reading (Updated)

Here is the first part of this lady's story and now she has asked me to do another reading using the same layout for she and her Lilies guy.

Using Heart again for the theme card,

Past: Coffin - Child - House

 The past shows an ending and a new beginning which brought her some peace and comfort.

Present: Lady - Heart - Mice

She is in love, it shows, but she is worried at the same time. The cards around Mice are House and the other card is Roads. Mice eat whats to the left and as a result you lose whats to the right. The Mice is eating at her feelings of privacy, comfort and security (of being single) and as a result she is losing her options/alternatives. From the draw we did last time, when she was single and not feeling like binding herself with one person, this looks obvious. The one disadvantage which comes with having an exclusive relationship.

Soon : Next two weeks: Flowers - Stars - Roads

She will feel happy, might get an invite at night, and this will again put her at a crossroad.  Stars with Roads shows that if the right choice is made, it will bring success for her.

Immediate: Next two months (till July 24th)

Fox - Whip - Storks

There is something wrong there. Lies will cause trouble, or extra caution will cause trouble, but discussions will help sorting things out. 

The Answer, Trigger Row:

Child - Heart - Stars - Whip

The love they share is pure and innocent, and is budding right now. There is lots of success for this relationship in near future. The Whips usually represent conflict and trouble but with Stars I don't think it will be any disastrous one. Whip is also physical passion, specially its with Stars which says "music" in Treppner's course. 

We have 5 positive, 4 negative and 2 neural cards (Heart was pre-chosen so not included here). Things look smooth for next two months.

Update: Things were pretty smooth for the Time from May to July.There is a new budding romance which is still in the immature phase. There are some problems budding right now, some aggression issues, the Whips card is showing itself.

Update: By July 24th they had a major trouble, an argument which led to lot of trouble.

Reconciliation, possible or Not? (Updated)

This spread has been done for a lady F who has been married for about 3 years now. The marriage has seen a few good days and mostly bad ones. She has moved out since last week and has been staying with us since then. She asked me if there will be a reconciliation with her husband. The matter which is the point of argument between them is another young lady who is her relative by marriage.

Q: Will there be a reconciliation between F and her husband?

Pre-chosen : Ring

Rider - Storks - Ring - Heart - Mice

There has been a message which caused some improvement in the past. A relative from the other side tried to sort the matter between them. In the coming influences there is a clear heartache. I do see a reconciliation any time soon and a change is on the horizon. With Mice ending the line, it will not be something most welcome.If I take Queen of Hearts as her and the Jack of Hearts as him, looks like he is trying to work things out but she is not (she is facing away from him). Storks - Ring - Heart tells that the marriage will be saved after an improvement. The love however, may not be the same.

Update: A message came by from the husband's side, a middle man who offered his services for hearing the story from both sides and trying to bring both families on a table and put the concerns out. This has been the only improvement in the matter so far.

With the same question in mind, this time without pre-choosing any card, I dealt five cards:

Flowers - Garden - Moon - Lady - Man

woowwhh! Flower and Garden is obviously a good sign. The Moon in the middle suggests that there will be success. Moon - Lady tells me that may be her mother will play an important role in this. Flower - Garden suggest a happy meeting, some chat and then matter reaching conclusion. The story says they might get an invitation to a party at night and they come across each other. The only thing which concerns me here, is that Lady and Man both are facing away from each other. So may be they reach reconciliation but things remain a little colder between them for quite sometime. We have two 8s and 2 Aces in this spread. Two Aces say leadership and authority and two 8's mean pleasure and good time.

Opinions and suggestion are welcome.

Update: There has a been a reconciliation recently. They have moved back together and I have no clue whether they have sorted their differences out or not yet but apparently things look good. The Moon was obviously pointing towards success, her mother played a really important part. A really charming man was also a dominant party to the reconciliation. 

Daily Draw: May 21, 2012

The cards for today were:

May 21, 2012 Daily Draw

Cards: Coffin + Man + Flowers

Key Card: Coffin

Key words: illness, pain, ending, depression

Prediction: Today is the day when some sort of depressing or draining things will happen. The Coffin usually brings something which causes mental depression in a daily draw.

With Man, it can be a Man in pain, or pain coming from a Man.

With Flowers its a short-lived illness, pain, which will heal quickly and the happiness will return. If the Coffin had come after Flowers, then that was a worrisome spread.

What happened in relation to the cards:

My friend is ill. He has allergy (Coffin + Flowers) and he was ultra depressed about it. I told him not to worry because it will be fine soon and he asked me , how soon. May be I should throw him a spread to ask how soon his problem shall be resolved.

Another thing that happened was a small misunderstanding between me and another friend (Coffin + Man). This was depressive too, for both him and me, but we did reach a resolution , the Flowers part. He actually is a gentle and pleasant soul.

Coffin + Man = Man is ill, man is depressed/ man causes pain

Coffin + Flowers = allergy, pain is short-lived, happiness reached again

Man + Flowers = pleasant, charming man 

Home Work: Daily Draw May 17, 2012

Day 6

Day : Thursday

Date: May 17, 2012 

Weather: Clear/hot

Cards Drawn: Storks + Mountain + Flowers/Bouquet

Key Card Focus: Storks

Keywords: A tendency to escape, change, uplift, improvement


Prediction: Storks is the card which usually brings some positive changes. Here with Mountain, either the change needs too much effort or is not coming yet, at least not today. I have not been able to draw some most accurate daily draws mainly because I'm not focusing really good these days. The Flowers are telling me there is positive change which will come when the hard work (Mountain) pays off.




Time: 12am
Accuracy: 100%
What Happened in relation to the cards: When I pulled out the Flowers card I knew it was about this particular thing I have been eyeing for so many days and everyday I have a plan to go buy it but I always postpone. Today I had a done plan with my friend to go buy it finally (its a female fashion thing; thus the Flowers), our plan was confirmed and when we rang the owner to check if he is there, he said he was available for today. So despite my wanting to have it today, I'm delayed.

Observations: The Flowers also represent object of beauty, which you want to add in your wardrobe, jewellery box etc (Storks). If the Mountain stands in between, you are not getting it yet!

Home work: May 13, 2012 (Updated)

Day 2:

Day : Sunday

Date: May 13, 2012 

Weather: Cloudy

May 13, 2012

Cards Drawn: Bouquet + Clouds + Mice

Key Card Focus: Bouquet

Keywords: Invitation, gift, Joy/happiness

Prediction: I saw the Bouquet+Ship combination last night in a dream so I guess I will either get the expected package today or it will be a pleasant day simple because some confusions will be resolved. Mice eat whatever is to their left, so here the smart thieves of lenormand are eating at the ambiguity and clarity about a matter will be enjoyed. What can be more joyous than having confusions replaced with clarity.


Time: Right after Manchester United lost the trophy to MCFC
Accuracy: 50%
What Happened in relation to the cards: I could not have found anything beautiful or joyous today because of the match and my team losing it to the rivals. I mean, what worst can happen, right? Besides that the best part of my day came from my exam which went fine , the only bright side to my day and the Clouds-Mice was the confusion for the match probably coming to an end.

Time: Past midnight 2am
Accuracy: 70%
What Happened in relation to the cards: Me and the friend I call Clouds, we were having our Clouds moment, and it was particularly annoying (Mice). But the Flowers were coming after that.We sorted our confusions for yesterday.


Observations: Flowers were only one part of my day, the earlier part. Flowers can also be a desire to look good. I wore my fav shirt today, also styled the hair, I had some extra time on my hands, so it can mean beautifying. So Flowers can also mean you wanting to look good. Clouds can be my friend who is actually Clouds to me, our relationship is more like hot & Cold kind of and the Mice was me being annoyed by his hot & cold attitude.

Homework: May 12, 2012

This post is for the Lesson 2, Module 3, Task 3 of the home work at Cartomantes Cabinet

Day 1:

Day : Saturday

May12, 2012

Date: May 12, 2012 

Weather: Partially Sunny /Cloudy

Cards Drawn: Birds - Whips - Bouquet

Key Card Focus: Birds

Keywords: Phone call, nervousness
Prediction: I'm expecting some pleasant conversations because of the presence of Bouquet. The presence of Whip suggests there can be heat (more than necessary) in the discussions but the Bouquet also add the element of joy and happiness in that.


Time: 1am
Accuracy:60%
What Happened in relation to the cards: There was lots of text-chat, twitter messages, facebook messages from my Project partner got heated because I refused to answer everything he asked this resulted in some argument at both ends. Neither of us rang the other though. The other text-chats were a mix, some happy moments and some sad ones. 


Observations: Birds can be any kind of communication. The Whips also deal with communication, only that it gets heated which it did. The Flowers, as expected, add the element of fun and cheerful energy. The happy energy of Flowers changed the nervous energy of Birds.

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.

Week 18 (Updated)

Sun - Book - Roads - Mice - Flowers - Clover - Bear

The Central card is the Mice, the little thieves of Lenormand. This week I should expect a loss of some options and some Joy. Mice eat what's to the left and as a result you lose what's to the right, so Mice will steal some of my options, my way out (Roads) and as a result I will lose my happiness (Flowers).

The Mice turned out to be small worries about everyday matters.

What an interesting way to start the new month. I think I will never get a chance to remain optimistic ever again!

Left arm:

Sun - Book - Roads

Book-Roads was a combo from day before yesterday. I was unable to give a meaning to this except that I finished solving two assignments. Sun - Book tells me that there is some luck and success revealed which the options or the choices remain hidden for a while. I can use the extra energy to solve a couple more assignments in other words :p

Sun//Bear tells me there is lots of energy, success, luck, optimism for this week. I must take advantage of this.

Book//Clover = a small secret, discovering some luck and happiness which lasts for a short time

Roads//Flowers = A way to happiness, joyous options, many colourful alternatives. Decision leads to happiness.

The week is really going great so far. I'm feeling lots of positive changes are betterment with adjusting to the new situations that took me off guard last month. Today I went out to my cousin's place and met this really pretty young lady there which reminded me of Flowers card. She was however worried about something. 

Right arm:

Flowers - Clover - Bear

Some joy or happiness which might not last for a very long time but it will be enough to cheer me enough big time. 

Flowers//Roads = Two invites, gifts

Clover//Book = Happiness/luck through some discovery

Bear//Sun = Luck and success which comes in full force.

Overall, the small culprits are at the centre making me lose hope for the next week, otherwise things look quite happy and cheerful

The week ended with situation improvised a lot on all fronts, many many problems resolved and a wonderful dinner with family. Life is back on track.

The Psychic Tarot sums the situation up like:

The Psychic Tarot

The Sun and Clover are represented by Hope. The Prosperity begins and the Passion Ignited cards are also positive in this spread. The two cards are like archetype Aces.

Good luck to me with the next week!

"When" question using 3x3 - Updated

I have found this spread precise, to the point and expansive than a linear spread of 9 cards. I would rather have dealt a 5-cards linear spread for "when" question but I wanted some extra details too. Therefore I used 3x3 spread.

This question/Reading is from journal dated April 19th 2012:

The question relates to the bad depressing time I'm having recently. I am not a person who would like being hopeless, drained, depressed and drowned but this time the situation does not looked quite favourable.

Q: When will this period of depression end?

 No card pre-selected

3x3 for when question

I did not choose the 29-Lady card for this but it fell in the central theme position. It looks like its entirely up to me when I want to end this period of depression and all along I was sure that it was not up to me. 

First card usually tells your current thoughts:

 Heart, oh how I so feel deprived of love and affection for myself these days. 

Columns:

Past: In the past I have had some great time, some thing nice and warm and also excitement. I was very excited for my birthday actually which was ruined by the way.

Present: Mice - Lady - Letter

Imagine how I'm being eaten up in my head, how worries are nagging at me, and I'm anticipating for some news, a ray of hope, anything to come my way. Basically I'm desperately hoping for a news about a change in the situation.

Future: Looks like a negative message or some shocking message is coming my way which will then bring a change after a brief period of this depression.

Rows:

First row: I do feel deprived of love and affection these days and I'm hoping for a news, anything that will make my day.

Second row: The pleasures and joys of the past have been over. I feel really drained of all the energy I have.

Third row: I'm anxious about a news, anything that will bring a change (Storks) in my situation.

Diagonals:

Heart - Lady - Storks = I' d love a change, which seems to be coming in future

Rider - Lady - Birds = I'm anxious and worried about whatever is happening so fast.

Rider - Flowers - Storks = A good news will bring a change

Heart - Coffin - Birds = A heartache followed by some release of emotions through communication with someone. 

Heart - Letter - Rider = A heart to heart correspondence with someone, may be a man.

Birds - Mice-Storks= Stop worrying and change will happen.

The good news is that Storks is the last card which assures that a change in situation is predicted in future.

The When part can be answered by the central row.

Coffin is the pain which is short-lived. It would have been dreadful if I had seen Cross there.

Flowers are what live for short time. They die fast.

Lady is me, so lots of it already depends on me.

Conclusion:

I concluded from this reading that this period is short-lived, may be 9-10 days on the most, Rider is fast card , Mice is fast card, Coffin and Flowers are short-lived and Change (Storks) is just right around the corner.

Update:

I have a confession to make, when my bad time started, I pulled out Rider for that day. When the bad time ended I pulled Storks on that day, sometimes you can tell when a change happens in situation and the cards say so for that daily draw. During the time when I was going through the depressing phase, I was constantly pulling Cross, so so so many times. Then finally I pulled Cross+Coffin and I knew its over now.I now can safely say that today on April 26,2012 things are a lot better. What helped me the most is heart to heart talk with a friend of mine and then some self-analysis. Some pains are short-lived but they leave their impacts for a long-time. 

Blessings for everyone!

New Moon in Taurus

Another month has passed. On every new moon I will do a new reading for what this new moon shall bring me over the next lunar month. Moon card is one card which is most difficult for me to nail in the readings. The Moon can be so many things at the same time. Last time I pulled out 9 cards in line of nine and overwhelmed myself. I should stick to lesser number of cards but in my opinion 5 cards are too less for a period of one month, talk about being under-whelmed.

This new moon I decided to pull a box of nine, instead of a linear spread.
This New Moon is in Taurus, time to relax, have fun in the green grounds, enjoy good food, actually enjoy everything big.
So I pulled myself these cards this new moon:

Did I say have fun in green grounds? Why do I have Cross next to Garden then? and wait, didn't I mention Moon was the card I cannot nail easily, then why is it next to Cross? Talk about fate!

The First card usually tells whats on your mind, Garden, people, parties, parks, social gathering oh this is what I want right now, remember the fun in the green grounds? There is Cross lying next to it which means there is no socialising, and even if there is, atleast its not to make me happy.

Rows:

Garden + Cross+Moon = An event which is not so pleasant , will bring me the recognition meant for me.
Ship + Flowers+House = A pleasant trip with family, A gift from far away arrives at home.
Heart + Clouds + Dog = Affection for a friend is not easy to convey, unable to love a trustful person.

Update: No trip with family but been pleasantly planning one. I had this one dinner where things were not very pleasant for me. 
The last line was the truest. This month I got re-connected with a friend and it was just not easy to be sure about my own feelings about him. The Clouds ,however, did not stay the longest.


Update May 23, 2012
A gift from far away actually arrived and I was happiest.

Columns:

Garden + Ship + Heart

Socialising with a person from foreign lands who is coming closer. The Ship sometimes represents physical distance as well. I have a friend actually who lives in another state, but we are getting closer with time.

Cross + Flowers + Clouds

Right now I'm going through the times when the Cross period is getting over and there is little happiness coming out of blue (lighter side of Clouds towards Flowers). Although I'm not completely sure what the Flowers is signifying, but I'm happier than I have been over last few weeks.

Moon + House + Dog

This looks like the relationship with family is becoming better, which is a good news. There is more trust, friendship and love for them or from them either way is a good news. Moon+House also tells me I will be having better success at home than last month which was a mess.

Update:
Socializing with this person from a foreign place, this was also true. 
I got a surprise this month, which actually knocked me off my own firm feet but I was still not sure if I wanted it at all. (lowers + Clouds).
The relationship with family INDEED improved a LOT. I'm a lot happier than last month.

Diagonals:

Garden + Flower + Dog

This looks like a meet up with a female friend or meeting some new friend in a park or garden.

Moon + Flower + Heart

a date night? Well I have had Flowers +Heart before and it usually results in being asked out.

Moon + Ship + Dog :

This looks like self-awareness will bring trust or a friend needs some dig in himself.

Garden + House + Heart

Fun time yay.

Garden + Clouds + Moon

A cancelled event which clouds my mood.

Heart + Cross + Dog

Things seem like getting bad between me and a friend.

Update; Did not meet up any good friend, but found an old friend on facebook and re-connected. 
I did not get asked out :( *LOL).
Don't I just love myself. This month I actually had some self-realizations, which resulted in me ending up trusting two people I was darn sure I could never trust. I'm positive about one, while I still have doubts about the one who is handling the modules for my project.
The cancelled event was one. A turn off indeed.
Things did get bad between us, they always do, but everything is under control now.

Combinations of Flowers with rest of cards:

The central card number 5 is always the important one, here it tells me next lunar month will bring me some joy and happiness.

Flowers + Garden: joyous event, happiness, contentment, invitation to an event

Flowers + Cross = negative invitation, the happiness comes with a price

Flowers + Moon = romantic present/invitation

Flowers + Ship = a gift from abroad

Flowers + House = happiness at home, gift from family members

Flowers + Heart = token of love

Flowers + Clouds = happiness is not completely satisfactory, uncertain joy

Flowers + Dog = friendship offer, a friend gives a present

So this is it so far, there are good cards, there are bad cards (Cross and Clouds) but they are both in present column. Future looks good for this month. I'm relaxed!

Cheers, to new beginnings!

Update: I'm liking how the spread has picked up on the energy of this month. I got a gift from family. Friend has not given me any present yet, but we are on good terms after a span of about 6months.
