Relationship Spread!

This spread is a pretty popular one when it comes to relationships and I found it on Madam Seaqueen's lenormand blog.

Key:

Above the Lady: Her thoughts and plans
Right of the Lady: Her hopes and desires
Left of the Lady: Qualities she displays in the relationship
Below the Lady: Her feelings

On the Gentleman’s side:

Above the Gentleman: His thoughts and plans
Left of the Gentleman: His hopes and desires
Right of the Gentleman: Qualities he displays in the relationship
Below the Gentleman: His feelings

The spread is done for me and this guy I met at a New Year Party.

Checking out the Lady side first:

Thoughts and Plans:

The Bear for me is usually a dominating, strong & protective man. Dominating this man is harder than you even think. On other hand this card also suggests I'm more focused on my strength and power, both physical and financial. This card can be both in my case. My thoughts are usually on another guy, who unfortunately doesn't feel as strongly towards me as I do towards him & at the same time I'm more focused on learning and having a strong financial base right now.

Hopes & Desires:

Before I even pulled the cards I was already thinking what will I get in this position & this reminded me of last night when someone asked me "Do you like kids?" and I was like "yeah, I want 3 of them, 2 boys and a girl". Its funny how I'm obsessed with Kids and my thoughts are all on being strong enough, for my kids, who someday will look up to mommy & know who they want to be like! 

Child also suggests I want sensitivity & naiveness, in this relationship.

Feelings:

My feelings are very much open & flighty you might say. I think the last thing on my mind right now is a romantic relationship & my feelings change a lot, when it comes to matters of romance. I'm more concerned with my freedom than with anything. 

Qualities I display in relationship:

Hope, faith, dreams and positive energy like that. I also associate this card with new paths and new hopes. This shows that I bring the element of hope in the relationship.

Now taking a look at him:

His thoughts and Plans:

Looks like he is stressed and troubled. Reminds me of the time when I met him and he was very very keen to make friends with me & I asked him why & he said "I thought I needed someone to talk to". Looks like there is something that is upsetting him in a bad way.

Hopes & Desires:

Ring: Oh that explains a lot of things. He seeks a connection, which he told me in our first meeting. He is looking for a stable commitment sort of thing, (but he says the opposite :/ ) and he hopes for a stronger and deeper connection. He is a Libra, 7th house ruler and ruled by Venus, so if he hopes for a relationship, he is very much in tune with what he really needs.

His Feelings:

House: He feels safe & comfortable. 

Qualities he displays in the relationship:

Heart: Yes he is very compassionate and very caring towards me.

So looking at the situation, He wants a relationship, he is warm and caring & he feels comfortable then what is troubling him (Mountain)? May be its my thoughts of another man I share with him that bother him. But I do bring hope in the relationship but at the same time my feelings are very changeable and inconsistent.

The good part is he wants a stable connection & I want kids.

He feels comfortable and secure & I feel change & improvement.

He shows love & I show hope.

The only thing that bothers me is, he is stressed because my thoughts are on power & strength (& another man) instead of him.

To get the outcome, we have to add the cards:

Mine: 15 + 13 + 16 + 17 = 61 = 7 - Snake

His: 21 + 25 + 24 + 04 = 74 = 11 - Whips

Adding both 7 + 11 = 18 - Dog & 9-Flowers

so Whips + Snake means conflicts and troubles along with arguments. Interestingly both are Jack & Queen of same suit & can be representing me & him, he is very athletic & sporty & communicative while I'm bit colder, career-focused & complicated. The outcome however, leads to good faithful friendship or happy nice company. We can say that troubles and verbal complications are there, we might even have some communication issues, but the outcome is good friends & happy endings with hearts & roses.

Phew! I welcome your views on this. Thank you :))

EDIT: I really loved what madam Seaqueen wrote about Snake as the lover/woman in her blogpost here. It simply explains ME!

Week 1 , 2013 (Updated)

Week 2

Theme Card: Storks

Since the Storks is following the Mice, I see it as a loss of an improvement or an opportunity for an improvement. However the card on other side seems good, with Ship which talks about relocation or a move, like an actual move.

I did think I lost a chance, actually a lot of chances. This weeks been crazy and there has lots been happening really and Mice, well, that was the culprit. I do see myself changing direction, paths , courses, whatever you call it.

Left arm:
Moon  - Bear - Mice

There are large honours and appreciation, but at the same time this results in loss of strength or energy. With the cold and fever kicking in, I can see how hard it will be for me to manage my reputation as an efficient worker and my lower energy levels.

I had big time troubles with some influential and authoritative people, at home. This made me emotional, more than it should have. Mice did make me cry lot many times this week :(

Bear + Mice was also some financial worries and loss of money, last few bucks I had.

Right arms:
Ship - Man - Roads

longing for a man who is unable to make his mind up or is facing a choice.

LOL now that I read it, I can't believe I nailed it down so well. There are two men actually who are facing choices and they just can't make their minds up. They both are physically distant from me, which explains the Ship and it involves women, two, for both of them.

Extra Information:
Two Queens talk about gossip
Two Tens about Travelling and with Ship also there, I see there might be some travelling involved.

Have a fantastic week everyone!

The only travelling I did this week was from home to work and work to home, literally nothing else.

Sorry for the Break

Hello

Happy New Year Greetings to all my lenormand learner friends. I have been away from my blog for a while because my laptop was out of order and my phone is the most scariest device I can imagine using for a blog update. Besides that the blogspot is acting silly with the new format and all.

I will try to be regular with the blogging like before and will also reply all the comments as soon as the blogspot allows me to!

Blessings

Week 50

Mice - Fox - Bear - Mountain - Child - Stars - Storks

Theme Card:
Mountain:

This week there seems to be some delays or blockages. These blockages are small but they are very effective (Bear). This may be a very stubborn person who is also sensitive & naive.

Left arm:
Mice - Fox - Bear
I see a loss of mental strength. Fox tells where you are guarding yourself & Mice shows there is a lack of that.With Bear it can be a strong individual scheming.

Right arm:
Child - Stars - Storks

A new beginning with success and improvement. A young man (Jack) and a woman (Queen of Hearts) are hopeful towards each other.

All that ends well is well.

Feedback:

My laptop is messed up and I have to use mobile for updating this one. This week was my first official week at work and it was a mix. There were good times and there were bad times. I dis feel drained and also mentally deprived. I was more unhappy than happy.

Things on love front are also very depressing but I do see hope in everything. That is one downside to being an optimist.

Week 49- Predictions (Updated)

A year since I started my weekly draws! Time sure flies!

Week 49

Key Card:
House

Keywords:
Comfort, security, personal space, home & family

I feel emotionally (Moon) safer & comfortable with my feelings (Heart) this week. Its a good sign given the fact I have been feeling totally out of place last week. I also feel loved & safer this week.

I do feel very much at home now. It seems like life is back on track & something very good will eventually happen out of it all.

Left arm:
Snake -Mice - Moon
A woman feels worried and sensitive. There might also be a loss of appreciation & honours (Moon). This may be involving another woman (Snake). There is a reduction of complication (possibly with an older woman) but at the same time there is a loss of sensitivity or honours.

Snake usually represents my mother with whom things are usually complicated.

Right arm:
Heart - Tree - Stars
I see a growing hope & faith in love. I need it, really!

Thing are rather good on love front too. I feel lots of hope & want a slow & steady growth.

Other Information:
Mice - Tree = A loss of health or a health concern
Moon - Heart = feeling loved

I had a bad bad stomach ache this week which lasted 2-3 days.

There are two 7's which indicate a significant change.

The most significant change was the start of my apprenticeship this week.

Weekly Draw November 26 - December 2

Time Flies! A Whole year has almost passed.

weekly draw

Theme Card:
Whip & Rod

Key words:
Discussions, arguments

Talk about aggression this week & suppressed aggressiveness (Book-Rods).

First thing that caught my eye is the RING (Ace of Clubs) card. This card represents a contract with Whips or it can be a troubled relationship. In my weekly draw of three cards with the ordinary Playing Cards deck too, I have Ace of Clubs which represents a new beginning or a contract. I think I will be discussing a contract. With Book it can be an apprenticeship or further studies under discussion. I have an interview tomorrow for an apprenticeship. Looking at this way, Book - Whip - Ring, It looks almost positive to me.

So this apprenticeship thing, I am starting hopefully next week, if I get the call letter. The RING is still looking very hopeful because I later intend to continue as an employee with the same organization.

Left arm:
Lilies - Roads - Book
A man & woman have a secret, An advice leads to a decision or exploration of options. An older wiser man advises and shows options to an indecisive woman regarding her studies or options that are somewhat open to her.

This man can be a number of people but I think its this Saturn-Influenced mature guy I know. He did help me making a decision or two this week which I was facing regarding my career & this apprenticeship I mentioned

Right arm:
Ring - Clouds - Clover
A relationship faces some ambiguities, which cloud happiness/opportunities and good luck

I really do not want to comment on this one, because I really don't know whats happening!.

Not good sign!

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!

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. 

Nov 5- Nov 11 Weekly Predictions (Updated)

Weekly reading

Theme:
Letter - email, document, written letter, information

With Mice there, I think this message will be incomplete or will be lost. The presence of Man on other side shows its from a man who can be anyone. With Mercury, the planet of electronic & communication turning retrograde, its a double confirmation. I have to be sure I receive all important documents.

First of all, the theme of the week was basically messages, messages and messages. I had to dispatch the application with attested testimonials during the week but I could not (Mice-Letter). I was intending to have a thorough conversation with this Man I have not talked to in days, but I could not, mainly because I was busy. If I have lost a message, I have no clue.

Left Arm:
Clouds - Rider - Mice

Two negative cards surrounding Rider which is also card for message and communication. Just strengthening the above said concept.

I super hated the lack of conversation this week. There were a few things I got to clarify with this person, but still there was sure a feeling that I miss talking to him !!!

Right Arm:
Man - Snake - Book

This is a complicated man, an introvert may be, this man is with a woman who is not so open, and is rather keeping a secret.

That one is so wicked true. This man, oh how so introvert he is and how mysterious *awed*. Anyway I believe he is with another woman, and he is just keeping it a secret.

I must add here, I missed Rider-Snake but I barely escaped a road accident during weekend on a twisted road. Rider can be vehicle and Snake can be twisted road, watch out with the combo people!

Other information: A lost message or a lack of communication between a man & woman (King & Queen of Clubs). This communication is related to another man (Man) which leads to Book at end of the spread.

There are two 7s = signify life changes!!!

Lets see what changes with the Mercury Retrograde this week!
