Week Predictions Nov 19 - Nov 25, 2012

Weekly Draw

Theme Card:
Garden
Key Words:
Public, out and about, social interactions, also includes social networking sites.

So this week I expect a message online, or going to an event possibly with an older lady (Snake). Besides this I also expect an event or mostly social interactions on my mind.

Left arm:
Tower - Tree- Rider
Tower - Tree can be a hospital or a health-related institute. So I expect to hear about it this week, since this is where the Rider is heading. This can also be a news about a man who is in hospital or in health institute.

I did receive a message from a really good friend who is ill. But it was just minor stomach bug, nothing so serious.

Now I have another friend having a tooth ache with sore gums & I'm going to find him a dentist, book an appointment with the help of my friend who also happens to be a dentist. I text her this morning & she said she can help us.

Right arm:
Snake - Lady - Coffin
Some complications are leaving a woman stressed & worried. The Coffin is also mirroring Tower, so an indication of self-imposed depression. Lady - Tree as mirroring also suggests boredom & frustration.

I do feel depressed, bored, stressed & a lot many things & the basic source of these problems is the lack of communication or the communication barriers I feel with my friend right now.

Other Information: There are Two 9's, so higher education will be on my mind.

New Moon in Scorpio, November 2012

This New Moon is activating my third house of thinking & communication (& short journeys). According to Cafeastrology.com

The third house rules our communication skills, learning, methods, daily interactions and contact, and general "busy-ness". This is a favorable time for learning something new, feeling at ease in social situations, taking care of the details of daily life, and developing a mental rapport with others. It is a time when you will be more aware of your environment, and when you experience increased alertness. It's a good time to take tests, fill out forms, start a new course, write letters, make phone calls, and take care of daily tasks with energy. 

Taking a Look at the spread for this lunar month:

Theme Card is Tower which is basically Public authorities, anything standing for a long time, long-term goals & ambitions and isolation. Not something new at all. 

Trigger card is Birds, a phone call or mental chatter and nervousness. So the concern this month is isolation and ambition, which is triggered by the mental chatter I have been facing. In terms of work, this can mean the company I will working for will be the concern triggered by the usual nervousness you have in initial months of your first employment.This will lead to Ship, travelling or a big change.

Keeping theme of Birds (nervousness), Tower (isolation) and Ship (longing) I see a sense of isolation and quiet time this month.

Past: Birds- Clover - Letter a phone call presented with an opportunity . This may be referring to the work placement call and letter.

Present:

Heart - Tower - Ring

Very interesting. Tower is what is coldness in relationship and readings. Here this card is between Heart (affection) and Ring (a relationship or bind). Taking is this way Heart-Tower = isolation from love or warmth, a cold heart, will lead to a love for or long-term isolation (Tower - Ring) where I will be committing myself more to my goals.

Future:

Rider - Anchor - Ship

I see a message from an organization (may be international) which may be a work related offer. I was expecting Anchor this month because Anchor is my "work" card and since I have got a job placement I can pretty much looking for Anchor. With Tower, I'm certain I will be placed  probably in a large enterprise. This can be a foreign organization (Anchor-Ship) or a mobile one (Anchor-Rider).

Corner Cards:

These cards tell us the context or concern. Birds - Ship - Rider - Letter. This whole thing screams "communication" to me. Birds are phone calls, mental chatter, Rider is Instant messaging, Letter is also emails and text messages. Ship is messaging someone far away. Well, something very much on my mind, probably for rest of the month too. With New Moon in house of communication, I do expect writing long notes.

Central Cross as answer:

Heart - Clover - Tower - Anchor - Ring

I see a small opportunity which might lead to a work or employment contract. I do expect them to sign me as permanent employee right away but I intend to prove myself and commit myself to my work in coming weeks. This feels really good.

Extra Information:

Birds - Rider with Ring

I see a strong connection developing over phone or messaging.

Letter - Ship with Heart

Again, a message from far away, love notes to someone far away.

There are Two 6's , Things coming together or falling into place

Two 7's, life changing events

Two 9's, Higher education or travel industry (which makes me wonder if Anchor-Ship and Rider - Anchor can be travel agencies!)

See you in a month!

Daily Draw October 13, 2012

Tower + Ship + Moon

Theme card: Tower associated with isolation, powerful, authorities & anything to do with Government organizations.

Tower + Ship = a foreign organization, being alone
Tower + Moon = an asylum, a psychic organization

I think I will feel so alone, I will feel emotionally down.

Oh another sad weekend.

Results: This day was a slow one. I was alone & frustrated & tired for unknown reasons. I did not feel like getting out of bed till late in the evening. Another reason was my sense of feeling separated from someone who is far far away from me. This explains why the Ship appeared. Sad & Alone & missing someone.

I also must say, I was just browsing & I came across a psychic readers network where you can have free chat with Psychics before having a paid reading. I was thinking may be that is why Tower+Moon reminded me of a psychic's organization :D

Week 37- Predictions

Week 37

Theme card: Book
Keywords: Secret, learning, knowledge, learning, studies, project, exams result

Book with Child on one side and Birds on the other can mean there is a new beginning, which I already know about but there is mental anguish related to it which I do not know about yet. This is how I interpret Book. Whats to pages side is what you already know about but what is to the left is what you are unaware of yet.

Book + Coffin = Secret ends, a secret which is hard to bear
Book + Tower = long term learning
Book + Child = a secret about a new beginning
Book + Birds = mental anguish which is hidden
Book + Roads = a decision which is not known yet
Book + Storks = learning to move on

Left arm:
Coffin - Tower - Child
Coffin is ending of some kind & what is ending here is definitely making me strong enough to have a fresh start.

Right arm:
Birds - Roads - Storks
Mental anguish or worries about a decision to move forward. I can actually sense it already because I'm quite quite bad at letting go & in this week I will have to make a transition from one phase to another because of the things that have happened in last week & half.

Other combinations we have is Two Queens, so more gossip :D

First thing first, my result has been announced & I have successfully finished my Post graduate degree with 94%. So Book - Coffin was end to my studies. The mental stress I have is now I'm looking for a job and I'm upset because I have nothing to do now. It feels odd having nothing to do. But I hope something positive will be just around the corner.

Week 36 Predictions

I'm really late with this one since this week has been obsessively busy.

Cards for the week were:

WEEK 36

Theme of the week: Tower
Tower is not only loneliness, independence & authorities but also things from past. There are positive cards around Tower so I expect this means the positive sides & good things happening.

First of all, my week started with my most dreaded Viva & final project presentation. Something went wrong & I swear I'd have killed myself if my insticts had not told me to take some extra preparatory measures. My instincts helped me & everything went very well, far far better than my expectation. This I can say that Clover had brought me luck with the Panel members and I could see their appreciation (Tower-Moon).

Left arm:
Rider - Cross - Moon
A negative message or person comes which brings some emotional pain. This week I have had 2 messages actually that upset me great deal. I can say because sometimes we believe we have moved past certain things in life, but then they just come & stare at us in our face & its very annoying.

Right arm:
Clover - Tree - Mice
Tree-Mice is a bad sign & that too because Mice is the last card. I just banged my foot with the steel door really bad & m afraid it might have hurt the muscle or the ankle joint & I also messed my thumb on the motion ride. I'm feeling very bad now.

Other information: I have three 6's and two 7's which means a get together & social engagements & life changes & trust me I can feel both happening because of each other at the same time.

Week 34 Forecast (update)

Week 34 Forecast

Cards Analysis:
I just wrote a post about 10-Scythe yesterday and I used Scythe-Ring as an example. I here have Scythe-Ring reflecting/mirroring each other. I guess time to revise the lesson.

The theme of the week is Clover. Keywords are luck, hope, small happiness, small gain, opportunity, a small surprise. So this week is all about knowing I have the small window where the lady luck is on my side (literally- see the cards) so I should make the most of it.

Other combinations:
Clover - Moon = emotional happiness
Clover - Scythe = unexpected or sudden opportunity, a surprise
Clover - Tower = work opportunity or happiness which comes from being alone & self reliant
Clover - Lady = lady luck
Clover - Ring = small surprise or happiness in a contract/relationship
Clover - Cross = diminished luck, happiness doesn't matter any more

Left arm:
Moon - Scythe - Tower
Whats to the right is under threat, or cut off from, so I will probably say good bye to being alone and independent. This will result in some instant or sudden recognition or success.

Moon - Cross = emotions put to test, what others think does not matter now
Scythe - Ring = end of a relationship/partnership
Tower - Lady = a lonely, independent lady

So this looks like a threat or breaking a relationship/partnership resulting in a higher sense of gratification where what others think does not matter for this lonely lady who is not going to stay inside her shell now.

So this Scythe-Ring has been three things: For one, my final semester's result has been announced so this is like a relationship & commitment towards my studies ending (finally!). The second is I feel I'm free from a bond which I believed existed between someone & me. Somehow, somewhere they lost my trust & I do not feel that much attached to them now. For third, The Ring-Cross is like a relationship to pain, worries and burdens. I guess I have freed myself from useless worrying too about the project, about this and about that, so many things & I do feel so relieved and so happy now.

Right arm:
Lady - Ring - Cross
This lady is under stress because of this burdensome relationship or this lady is having a deep connection with pain and fate.

Lady - Tower = lonely but ambitious lady
Ring - Scythe = unexpected partnership, the danger to partnership passes
Cross - Moon = feelings and dreams become important.

So this lady is feeling burdened because of this relationship which is not so important now (Ring-Cross) but the relationship does not break, the danger will simply pass and she will realize she needs to trust her instincts more often.

The unexpected partnership bit rose when I was discussing the project problem with someone (a friend) and then he offered his help. He was hunting down every IT guy he knew and finally he found someone who could help me. Then I have forward the documents and everything to him and now waiting for some miracle otherwise I have to develop a Plan B. 

The Ring-Cross has been very nerve-wrecking. Both the contract I had with the developer and the personal connection I had with this guy, are getting on my nerves because both are not going anywhere.Its so heart-warming.

Extra Information:
I pulled an extra card coincidently, I lost count. This happened before and that card turned out to be important. Lets say it was the 8th card like the deck wanted me to know what comes after the Cross. That card was 17-Storks. A change is coming, indeed.

I have been expecting things to change before I start with the next month because I'm finally saying good bye to my student life & yay it does feel so wow.

Multiples:
I have 3 6's = social engagement, party, or get-together. oh yes I totally expect it this week
I have Two Aces : Leadership & authority

There have been more than one social engagement or gathering this week. This is why I have not been updating this week's forecast before Sunday. The Leadership & Authority bit talks about someone very "fifty shades" of love.

Looking forward to this week's great lessons

19 Tower

Key words for this card:

Iris Treppner: Public authorities, court, enterprise, loneliness, Office & authority, independence, diligence, isolation, discipline, ambition, boundaries, city limits, also separation and/or divorce

Brigitte Kienle: School, education, work

French Cartomancy deck: Big, tall, borders, government, official, loneliness, arrogance. A big building ... look to the cards following to explain. ie; Tower + Tree = hospital, Tower + House = apartment block, high rise ... Independence. A large corporation.

Other meanings: The course of your life, life long ambitions, something or someone from past, protection

General meanings: As it depends on the question but this card represents authorities in a reading. It can be any "official" influence to your question, a court, a government institute, anything that is too high. This card also represents ambitions which are beyond your reach, the goals which will take long time and lot of independence on your part.

Another very important side of this card is isolation. This is not the isolation which is beyond your control i.e feeling of being left out or left behind, rather it is more like shutting others out. Sometimes we feel vulnerable and we need to protect ourselves this is where we tend to isolate ourselves, both physically and emotionally. I guess this is why the Mystical lenormand associates the meaning protection with this card. This is not the card which makes you feel stressed, or down. Its rather making the positive out of the isolation. You feel more independent, secure, bold & confident.

Representing a person or next to a person card this card tells us this person is very ambitious and very disciplined. You do not try to change the way they behave or act because they will probably just not listen to your advises anyway.

As an advice this card tells you to be headstrong. have a spine, stand tall with your head held high, and also keep an unbiased view of the situation. Separate yourself emotionally from this situation because your emotions are probably messing with your head right now.

In love readings this card shows when one or both people have gone cold and withdrawn. Its not because they want to chicken out, its simple because they just don't feel like it any more. More like emotionally closed off. In several instances this card has indicated separation. This separation is final if Ring is involved, its done willingly if Flowers are nearby and it will result is you feeling stressed of Mountain is closer. It can be a temporary shut off too look for surrounding cards. If Anchor or Tree are present around, they will take a while coming back in their own.

Astrologically, both Treppner and Mystical lenormand associate this card with Planet Saturn. Some key words about Saturn are :
Organization, career, ambition, law, older persons, traditions, orthodoxy, authority, status, discipline, restriction, limitations, responsibilities. 

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 :(

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.

Daily Draw June 05, 2012

Weather : Partly Cloudy

Cards: Book - Tower - Moon

Key Card: Book

Key words: education, project, secret, learning

Prediction: The Book is the card which represents my studies and specially my Final Year Project. The Tower with the Book represents either my university (I'd prefer Tower-Book for that) or self-study or independent study mode. On the other hand Book-Tower could mean a secret which will not be revealed.
Tower-Moon is an institute which deals with public matters or recognized institute.

A long-standing secret about a well-known institute.


An independent learning about an institute which deals in public matters


Success with the project/document after independent work is done.

What Happened in relation to cards:
I could not possibly place this one today. I have no idea what this daily draw was referring to. I had to go to university but I could not because I was busy with work stuff. The Moon in the end is showing otherwise because Moon means success. Besides that I was discussing the University policies with a friend today.

Week 23 (Updated)

Cards for the week:

Coffin - Mice - Tower - Stars - Sun - Heart - Clover

week 23

Theme Card: Stars
Key words : Hope, guidance, new path, success

The card Stars is also associated with spirituality, astrology, astronomy, and the science. In my readings, this card has also represented astrological transits and a psychic lady. With Tower I'm wondering if there is a association or organization of psychic or astrologers which brings some success (Tower - Stars-Sun). I was reading some Russian meanings I have collected and it said a strange thing "Stars means calmness, it can also be associated with colour Blue". Blue is my favourite colour to meditate on when I feel down, it calms me. Stars - Tower is honours and success.

Stars and Sun is a great combination, because it speaks about success and luck. So at least the theme looks good.

Left arm:

Coffin - Mice - Tower
Where the Mice is eating at the negative energy of the Coffin, the Mice may also be some worries which will upset me a bit too much. I'm not liking the combination of Coffin-Mice and then Mice-Tower. Coffin-Mice will put an end to the problems I am having, specially the feeling of having too much to do and too little time, but Mice-Tower looks like these worries will make me lose my self-confidence and my ability to do it alone.

Coffin//Clover is good pair as it is suggesting after a period of bad luck, hope will be re achieved. Mice//Heart - Loss of love, for the first half of the week, I can say yes.
Tower//Sun = This looks promising finally something nicer to look forward to.

Update Mid-week
I'm really surprised how I was so so so down with worries and so stressed. Then all of sudden I started praying, after a long long time actually. Its the power of faith that keeps me going and my faith was being so strong that I finally got over one of my major problems, one is on way to solution and the others will be solved in time too. 

Right arm:
Sun - Heart - Clover
Sun warms everything that is around it. With Heart it looks like warming of the heart. Ending with Clover it looks all good during the second half of the week despite the fact that Clover is reflecting to Coffin and Heart to Mice. I'm hopeful (isn't that what the Stars are about).

Reading as a story: After a period of bad circumstances, the worries are going away and putting me back in position. There is regained hope and success, which leads to a happy and content heart.

I have 2 negative, 4 positive and 1 neutral card here. There are more Reds than Blacks (5:2) and also there are three 6's. Three 6's either denote money gained or a small gathering or party. I'm expecting a family get-together this week.

Update week ends:
The second part of the week was probably the best part of my week without a doubt. The Sun-Heart combo brought a lot of luck , happiness and warmth in matters of Heart (not romantic, but something like affection for someone). But I did feel some down times, some worries, some doubts (Heart-Mice) swarming in my head. The get together was fun actually.

Week 20 (Updated)

So we are 20weeks far in 2012.

Weekly Draw, Week 20

The central card for the week is Fox, which is a card that may manifest in two ways as said by Mama Whodun. Either you are the Fox or you come in the way of a Fox. If you click on to read the post, you will see there is a wonderful analysis of this logic-driven animal. I'm not sure yet which side of this card is coming up for me this week but I will stay alert to digging it out.

With Tower and Dog, I guess I know who its talking about. The Dog + Tower is a friend who works in a govt. department and is very logical. I actually get advises on being logical from him. This week the situation looks false, shallow and intellectual between us. The Dog + Fox tells me that this friendship is actually just a false friendship, which he has openly confessed today. He clearly said he never saw me as his friend *disappointed*.

Anchor - Letter - Dog shows there is some stagnation with talking things through with this friend.  The Anchor however mirrors Sun which looks comforting. Letter - Heart shows there are some issues regarding feelings which need resolution. Dog - Tower, talk about being authoritative, or may be he is just too lonely. 

Anchor + Letter = long awaited news

Letter + Dog = message from a friend

Tower - Heart - Sun

This looks like there is loss of some feelings, feeling of being alone and cold. but the presence of Sun looks promising at the end. The Heart is divided between cold and warm from both sides. I hope it does not mean a separation from a great love. Sun + Anchor = sustained success, Tower + Dog = a strict friend/male , Heart - Letter = love letter. 

Tower + Heart = feeling of being alone

Heart + Sun = a great love.

Looks like a mixed week. Its important because things between me and a friend are at a crucial stage. I want to sort this matter. All of sudden we are locking horns. May be the message of Fox is to act smart.

Tuesday:
Letter + Dog and Letter//Heart. Well, we did have communication and that too very lovely and rather affectionate today. Things seems good for today at least.


Wednesday:
Dog + Fox and Dog + Tower. Tower, I was told, sometimes represents things from past because Tower is what is there for a long time. Today I encountered, despite my utmost efforts to avoid my past, some friends, or some girls who apparently knew me, but I did not recognize them. They were probably some girls from my high school, junior or senior may be, I have no clue, but they recognized me. The Fox was me, trying to ditch the questions and move on.


Thursday:
Fox + Dog and Fox + Tower
This was a day when my friend (represented by Dog this week) wanted some time alone and he is being a little weird about his whereabouts, which is giving me these Fox kind of mixed feelings. He said he was busy (Tower) but I'm wondering if he is hiding something I should know about *wondering*

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! 

Week 14 (Updated)

Lady - Man - House - /Tower/- Snake - Roads - Sun

This week is a week of being independent and probably de attached from the family (Tower-Snake and Tower-House). The Snake is mirroring House and the Tower stands between them. There is a split of separation in my family because of a trouble. Snake often represents my mother, specially with House in reflection, She just had a bad back today.

Left arm:
Lady - Man - House

The Lady and Man are not facing each other. Lady //Sun and Man//Roads suggests this couple is facing some issues, specially the man is facing some decision and Lady is quite happy. They are getting more comfortable with each other. I am tempted to think if this is related to my mother and father because House is next to Man, and my dad wants to buy this new car which my mother doesn't want him to and they are having some trouble over the matter since after so many years of successful marriage they do not go ahead with anything until they both agree on it unanimously.
Lady + Man = A lady and a Man
Man + House = A family member, a Man who is family oriented
Lady + House = A woman who is family-oriented
Lady + Snake = An independent lady, A lady who is clever can be cold and manipulative
Man + Roads = A man living multiple lives, a Man facing a decision, a man facing an opposing woman (Queen of Pentacles).
House + Sun = No problem in the house.

Update April 05, 2012 I was right about this. The man and Lady were my parents. My dad ended up deciding he was not buying the car. I knew it somehow because my mother is really stronger than him and she will convince him anyway. Its really good to see how my instincts picked up on situation that its them.

Right arm:
Snake - Roads - Sun
The Twisted and shaky way is ending with success. I see that my mother (Snake//House) will help my father in making the decision (Roads//Man) and this will restore things just the way she wants (Sun//Lady).

Snake + Roads = Forced choice
Snake + Sun = Healing, a bold move, good move
Snake + House = Unhealthy situation in family, jealousy in family
Roads + Man =Man needs to take a decision, Man face-to-Face with a shrewd Woman
Roads + Sun =The right way, the right choice
Sun + Lady  = success for lady

I'm sure this has something to do with the car purchase. My mother will force him not to and this will create some unhealthy situation between them. Then my dad will take a decision (the right one) and with Sun//Lady I'm sure he is not buying the car.

Update April 08,2012
My dad actually has not yet made a decision which one he wants to buy. There are some rough issues going on at home, and car is not the only reason. I have spent most of my time alone(Tower) this week.  This week's draw was pretty much spot on.

Adding the cards: 140 = 50 = 5-Tree. This week is a boring one (I can already say) and its slow but some long-term projects might be planned.
There has been some renovation going on at home. I will look at my GT to locate the indication of this. Besides that, this actually was a long week without anything special happening. I've been meditating a lot these days, actually everyday, due to the non-exhaustive spiritual energy I feel.

Tower + Birchrod/Birch/Whip and Rod

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. 

Tower is the card of authority, something that has been standing there firmly for years and years, Government, structure, power, ambition, something that has always been there and never really gone. 
In career, this card talks about ambition, independence, where you stand head held high.
In love, this card is always separation, or split.
In work and jobs, its Government, structured organizations, courts, hospitals and with Book, University.A high building.
Emotionally, its loneliness, a feeling of being OK being alone. 
In terms of medicine, its the spinal column.
As a person, he is someone tall, thin, loves structure and authority, and is pretty organized.It can also be someone alone, single etc.

Whip on the other hand is the card of negotiations, arguments, discussions, troubles, breakups, documents etc. Something is going to be discussed and the discussion is going to get little heavy. Interestingly, this card , like the Tower, also represents separation but in a different way. Tower represents separation because you feel secure and comfortable being alone, or you are alone because of your pride, ego etc. The Whip on the other hand is the separation because of arguments, fights and quarrels. It can also represent something that needs to be done twice. Another theory describes that Rod side is what is discussed behind closed doors and Broom side is what is discussed in public.
This card also talks about emotions that are intense, specially sexual chemistry.
As Jack of Clubs, this is a person who is young, sporty, hard working and active. 
A sports lover or an admirer. 


Together they can indicate:

• A trouble with authority
• A court case
• A negotiation
• A discussion between two people, where one is trying to make the other bend down, and the other person does not give up at all (telling you from experience).
• A separation because of both ego and quarrels.
• Sexual arousal.

Weekly Draw: Week 9 (Updated)

Flowers - Cross - Dog - Ship - House - Heart - Tower 

The Ship in the middle looks like something from far away, a journey, a change , a movement, getting out of town may be. The Ship can be an emotional journey too going away from where I am now to a new place, feeling new, or feeling alien may be!

Update: I was actually out of town for two days this week. It was a trip with family, to meet family (Dog + Ship + House). 


The Left arm:
Flowers- Cross - Dog - Ship
The Flowers are something short-lived, but beautiful while it lasts, an invitation, a gift. It is surrounded by Cross and Tower in combinations, a one-time offer, pleasure in standing alone, pleasure in suffering.

The Cross is fate, suffering, burden. With Heart in mirroring, A love for suffering again. Whatever is to the Right of Cross is what will happen for the person.Whatever is to the left is what stops. Dog can be a person or someone from family (Dog + House). This friend or family member is on a journey.

I think it is referring to my brother here who is on an overseas journey right now. He will be back before this week end. The Flowers might be a gift he brings (I doubt though!)

Right arm:
Ship - House - Heart - Tower
House is my home, family, or my private space. There is everything settled here for the week because of Heart and Dog around. The Tower however brings some isolation at an emotional level specially with the Heart + Cross in mirroring.

Overall: I believe my brother will make his journey back home and there will be love and happiness at home, but I might be feeling a little alone by the end of the week.


The Week was full of restoring energy because I went out of town for two days and it was worth it. I feel so recharged and so full of energy. I can focus better on work now. I had no friend visit me or my brother has not returned yet. The Tower at the end is about my back, which has been hurting a lot lately (since I came back).
King is King of Hearts and Heart is Jack of Heart, I was wondering if they can be my brother and father. They have some issues lately, and they are physically away from each other (Tower and Ship). The Heart-Tower shows me I feel secure and safer in terms of love now. The Flowers were just the fun and company I had at my cousin's place.


Cross-Dog-Ship was my friend feeling bad because I was away. He sort of has developed a deep attachment and doesn't like it when I'm not around. 

More Practice with 3x3 spread

I did one with the Flower card appearing repeatedly for me and it worked just really good. I decided to another one for my friend. This time I won't be using any pre-chosen significator card, instead let the cards choose the central card as the most important aspect of the reading.

Q: What are the obstacles on my way to a serious relationship?
A:

The first card tells a lot about the thoughts at the moment. The Roads in this position tell me she is facing choices. She cannot make up her mind about what she needs to do or she simply has to move on, pick one, while she cannot decide which option (suitor) is better for her. The Clover shows there is hope, about more or better options which is stopping her from moving forward. This is where the trouble(Whip) is lying.

Lets look at the central card which is the focus, Moon. Moon card has been my favourite quite recently. This card represents many thing, illusion, intuition, feelings, emotions, romance, recognition, and above all our Feminine side. Now I understand why this card has appeared here. This friend of mine, is full of Mars energy. She is anything but feminine. This is where the problem lies. She is the man she wants to be with and this is where the problem lies. I think this is why the Roads are there in first position. She needs to get in touch with her feminine side and at the core of it she will realize who is good for her.

Lets look at the columns:
1: There is a decision which needs to be taken before a strong love bond can be established.
2: There is some psychic message or a message from the intuition which can be of help.
3: There is a need to straighten things out (Snake is twisted, Tower is something straight and clear).Whip can be discussions with mother or an independent woman who is someone with a "spine".

Rows:
1: If she makes a decision, she will find luck and a younger guy (Whip) may be. This can also be an indication of a tough luck or troubled luck or she can't make up her mind because she is not very hopeful about her luck.

2: She is not sure about her true feelings. Her heart is not comfortable because of the emotional ups and downs she is feeling.

3: This seems like a bond/contract with isolation.

Diagonals: 
Roads - Moon - Tower: The way to success is going by the books. There can be some illusions regarding the alternatives available, but she needs to see them high and clear. Moon and Tower both are about status in society, and recognition. She needs to make a decision before she can be "seen" romantically.

Whip - Moon - Ring : Breaking up from the illusions and bringing some midnight activities in her schedule will bring towards her some recognition and a strong binding relationship.

Whip - Heart - Tower: This looks like a break up which has pushed her into loneliness.

Roads - Snake - Ring : Clearly the road to a serious romance right now is very twisted.
She needs to work great deal on herself before anything can happen for her.

Summary: She needs to find her self-esteem, a woman who is independent (Snake-Tower) might be a great help. Besides that she needs to make up her mind (Roads). The love for isolations she has developed is what is actually the biggest hindrance in her serious relationship. If she can get over these three things, although it does not seem easy, she can get it on just fine.

Letter + Ring + Tower

This was drawn this morning. My first thought was a message, from my lover about splitting paths. The Tower card with Ring is a clear indication isolation from partner. The Letter would mean it would be probably a text message or an email. The Ring has often represented our relationship.

Letter - Ring - Tower

The cards I pulled out in my Playing cards deck (the one I'm using for my course in Magic Circle School).

King of Clubs - 7 of Hearts - 2 of Spades

The spread is read from left to right, like one card for morning, noon and night.

There is again an indication there might be a problem today. Looking at numbers and suits,  the morning will be busy, I will probably be working hard in the morning, the afternoon suggests an emotional problem, with a friend or lover may be, and the evening brings arguments and disputes.

This looks like a really bad day.I will try to avoid him altogether today and leave him alone if that helps him!
