Tarot Reading for Saturday, September 29, 2012

Page of Pentacles, crossed by Five of Cups, flanked by Six of Cups and Ace of Swords

Many of us will be pursuing deeper knowledge of something that has sparked our interest lately. This may be something you studied years ago and are getting back into, or it may be something completely new to you. Regardless, this pursuit is helping to take you out of the rut you have been working on for quite a while. There has been a lot of nostalgia lately, and contemplating the path we have taken so far. By the end of today, we will all feel we have conquered something, and not just some small thing. Enjoy the moment and know that there will be more of this to come.

Tarot Reading for Wednesday, September 26, 2012

Seven of Swords, crossed by King of Pentacles, flanked by Three of Swords and Nine of Pentacles

We have been worrying less and less about our pasts, and focusing more every day on the present and preparing for the future. This has landed us in a favorable position for business, and possibly even a partner or a few people to share ideas with or start a venture. There has been a sharp conflict between good friends lately, and while this may be complicating things a bit, it has helped to get us in our current position. We will likely have the opportunity to show off some skills we have been developing to some key people today. Don't be shy. Show off a little. They will be impressed.

Tarot Reading for Monday, September 24, 2012

King of Cups, crossed by The Chariot, flanked by Wheel of Fortune and Two of Cups

There is an interest today and an opportunity to explore higher concepts of love and happiness, such as can be found through philosophy, spirituality, and compassion for others. This, amidst a day that otherwise seems hectic and unpredictable. Lately there has been a pattern of unpredictableness, so it may just be that we have gotten used to going with the flow, but today's ride should feel smoother than it has lately. There is the opportunity for a new beginning or a refreshing interaction with a love interest later. Try to apply the understandings that came about earlier in the day to this interaction, and it will be even better.

Tarot Reading for Sunday, September 23, 2012

King of Wands, crossed by Page of Swords, flanked by Four of Cups and Four of Pentacles

There is someone nearby who has been helping you to figure out how to act and react in a new environment. This person is caring, experienced, and wise. It's good to practice on your own, but be sure to listen to what he/she has to say about it. They are making accurate and helpful observations. There has been some sadness and grief lately, mostly from attempting to make ourselves happy from false sources. Identify what those are to you and try to break that habit. Many will be feeling secretive, selfish, and a bit reclusive later. This may be simply due to some moodiness and hurt feelings. Don't take it personally if someone you are normally close to is somewhat standoffish.

Tarot Reading for Saturday, September 22, 2012

Eight of Pentacles, crossed by Wheel of Fortune, flanked by Four of Wands and The Emperor

Many will be focusing on the learning of a new skill today, likely through another person who is already adept. There will be some unexpected experience, idea, or dynamic that will come about as a result of time spent learning and practicing, likely with another. How you put this to use or whether you even notice it will determine what kind of influence it may have. There has been a desire lately to take time to enjoy your surroundings, especially outdoors. This rest was needed, but may have taken us away from some other important matters. There will be an interaction later with someone who knows business very well. He can lend some great ideas, if you are able to discern the key moments in conversation to listen closely.

Tarot Reading for Friday, September 21, 2012

Temperance, crossed by Justice, flanked by Eight of Swords and Three of Swords

There will be lessons today in moderation and patience. There will likely be consequences, negative or positive to recent tendencies to overdo things or to try and rush things. Many have felt trapped by their situations recently, and this may have led to some anxiety and impatience. This will likely lead to conflict or trouble later in the day, especially between close friends. There will likely be some stress as a result of these events; just remember to learn something and take away with you the lesson that is there.

Tarot Reading for Thursday, September 20, 2012

Ace of Wands, crossed by Ace of Cups, flanked by Nine of Cups and Eight of Wands

Today we will be at an apex of creation and elation for different reasons. The creative process, as we are working on projects or self-reinvention is definitely part of the happiness today will bring. It may be temporary, but it will be an unforgettable high. There has been some recognition recently, and this is also lending to the overall atmosphere of today. There are connections to be made, and today is a great day for networking and talking about ideas.

Tarot Reading for Wednesday, September 19, 2012

The High Priestess, crossed by Death, flanked by Seven of Pentacles and Page of Pentacles

Today, the realization will come that what we thought was a depth of knowledge, either on a particular subject or on life or society in general is either incomplete or altogether false. We have seen the fruits of hard work recently, and while this is great and has filled us with pride, there is also the realization that there is much more to be learned if it is to keep growing. We will start looking today for new sources of information and connections with others who may be able to help in this quest.

Tarot Reading for Tuesday, September 18, 2012

The Magician, crossed by Three of Cups, flanked by Two of Pentacles and Seven of Wands

Many will be trying to control or manipulate situations or others on matters that are out of their control, as they should be. This is due to some compromising situation where they have decided they aren't happy with their end of the bargain anymore, and are trying to force it to be as they desire. There have been some big decisions made (or avoided) lately, and this has a lot to do with what is happening currently and is coming up. By the end of the day, you will be feeling better prepared to step into some new idea or way of being. Remember: those who desire control over others often use it as a distraction from the realization of how little control they have over themselves.

Tarot Reading for Monday, September 17, 2012

Two of Wands, crossed by Eight of Cups, flanked by The Chariot and Ace of Wands

Today is a great day to show others the level of experience and personal responsibility you have gained recently. Today, this will come in the form of purposely walking away from a situation that is no longer good for you. It will be hard not to look back at times, but just keep walking forward once you have made the decision to do so. There have been a lot of extreme ups and downs lately, as well as totally unexpected events. You probably felt like the world was taking you for a ride, but you have gained a lot from it. Later in the day, you will start putting your most recent experiences to use in the creation of something new.

Tarot Reading for Sunday, September 16, 2012

Three of Swords, crossed by Justice, flanked by Eight of Pentacles and King of Cups

There will be conflict today, but this is something that has been coming for a while, and many of us are already anticipating it. Things have been out of balance for a while, and it is likely that no attempt has been made towards achieving balance out of respect for the other. The dynamics of the relationship in question are like that of student and teacher, and each has a lot of respect and care for the other, and this will likely complicate the conflict, as well as making it emotionally hard for both parties. There will be a focus later on principles and personal philosophies, either alone or with someone whom you feel has a good handle on their own and may be able to help you sort things out. This will help put the events of today in perspective.

Tarot Reading for Saturday, September 15, 2012

Queen of Cups, crossed by Knight of Cups, flanked by Two of Wands and Four of Wands

Good things will come today; people are feeling especially happy and caring today, and want nothing more than to share it with others. This can create the kind of bliss we experience very rarely, where everyone is giving and benefiting simultaneously. There has been the opportunity to show our growth recently, and others have been impressed by the foundations we have set, and how we have handled ourselves. This also comes with a sense of pride and self-recognition, which is likely lending to the overall spirit of today. There will be the pull to indulge and relax a bit. I think we all deserve this right now, and should let ourselves give in to it. Just be aware of and prepared for the things that still need to be taken care of when the rest is over.

Tarot Reading for Friday, September 14, 2012

The Empress, crossed by Queen of Cups, flanked by Knight of Swords and Knight of Cups

There is a strong feminine presence about today, as many of us are thinking of female leaders, teachers, our mothers, friends, possibly lovers. There is an admiration for the combination of strong and soft qualities that embody the women we look up to. There has been a desire to rush after things; to be fearless and courageous in the face of our fears. There will be a great opportunity today for starting a new chapter in romance: many will find themselves strengthening the bond with their lover, many may start a new relationship. In whatever form, many will find themselves making a stronger commitment to the pursuit of happiness with another.

Tarot Reading for Thursday, September 13, 2012

Seven of Pentacles, crossed by Four of Swords, flanked by Six of Cups and Four of Wands

Many are finally seeing growth and fruition from endeavors we have been tending to for quite a while now. There has been a lot of work put into these things, and today we are getting a bit of a break, knowing that there is more work ahead. We have all been rather nostalgic lately, looking back on our pasts with that kind of understanding that only comes with time. There will be a pull to get outdoors later in the day, and to possibly indulge ourselves a bit. Enjoy this time and let yourself relax.

Tarot Reading for Wednesday, September 12, 2012

Knight of Cups, crossed by The Tower, flanked by Ten of Swords and Two of Cups

There is the opportunity today for a new beginning in romance. This, while other things seem to be falling around our feet. Many are in a place of rebuilding currently, in starting over from the foundation in many aspects of their lives. There has been a lot of sadness, worry, even depression over what we feel are circumstances out of our control. It always seems easier to rebuild when you have someone else there to help you. Today may very well present the start to a new level of intimacy for us: either with a new interest or a strengthening or change in an already existing relationship.

Tarot Reading For Tuesday, September 11, 2012

Page of Pentacles, crossed by Five of Wands, flanked by Ten of Cups and The Moon

There will be a focus today on learning and academic pursuits. There is a need to absorb new knowledge on a subject, but this in fact can take us away from other important matters and could even cause a breakdown in communications. Recently, we have found new success and happiness, especially in our homes. This may be causing an overabundance of comfort, resulting in an aloofness in regards to certain things that really need to be tended to. There will be a hunt later. This may be a personal pursuit or it could be a group effort to find something or achieve something very specific. Be careful though, as the desire for this is so strong, there may be an impulse to "do whatever it takes," which can sometimes lead to using others as a means to an end.

Tarot Reading for Monday, September 10, 2012

Eight of Cups, crossed by Queen of Swords, flanked by Two of Wands and Seven of Cups

Many of us will be walking away from something that once brought us much happiness. This has been a big decision, and it hinges on the foresight that if we don't walk away now, we will likely end up bitter and resentful down the road. Lately, there has been a real focus on responsibilities, in order to create a stable foundation to be able to pursue other interests. We've all been doing fairly well, but there is still room for improvement. We will likely spend much of today fantasizing about what we want down the road. Some of these once "unattainable" goals may feel like they are closer to a real possibility today. It's good to dream; just remember that real world effort is required for any achievement.

Tarot Reading for Sunday, September 9, 2012

Death, crossed by Two of Cups, flanked by Knight of Wands and Ace of Wands

There will be a drastic change in many relationships centered around today. This will mean the end of some, a change in dynamics, or a new beginning for others. There have recently been some travelling into unfamiliar territories, and some of the things learned or seen while there is likely contributing to this transition. With it also comes the opportunity to refashion ourselves in yet another way. This last week, many of us have been distracted, but today is the day to get back into manifesting what we wish to be and where we wish to go from here.

Tarot Reading for Saturday, September 8, 2012

Many of us are still stuck in a sadness or feeling of loss today. It is currently interfering with our motivation, and especially hindering creativity, passions, and the progress we've been making towards self-reinvention. There has been a tendency lately to stick to patterns and habits that are no longer useful. You will know this for certain by the end of the day. You will go to some tried and true method of "fixing" things to find it is no longer there or functioning. I'm going to be very frank about today's reading: the things we are dwelling on right now are temporary and not as big of a deal as we are making them. This is a time of great transition, and if we all can't realize that and make those changes, things will not get better. There is a lot of potential right now. Don't waste it worrying about things that don't matter, and don't dare the world to hand you the same lessons over and over again. They get harder every time.

Tarot Reading for Friday, September 7, 2012

Queen of Cups, crossed by Justice, flanked by Seven of Cups and Two of Pentacles

Those who have shown a genuine capacity to care for others, and who have selfishly given over a long period of time will finally see some return for their compassion today. There will be a sense of rightness and a refreshing balance that will come about. Many of us have been fantasizing a lot lately about our futures. We are dreaming about them, and the things we want may be out of our reach, but it's good to reach higher than our current realities permit. If you want to get closer to them however, action is required at some point. This may involve a big decision that is currently weighing on us. Both options seem viable, but one is likely more attractive and feels right. The sooner you make the choice, the sooner you can progress.

Tarot Reading for Thursday, September 6, 2012

Six of Pentacles, crossed by The Empress, flanked by Page of Swords and Ten of Swords

There is still a focus on the dynamics of giving and taking in our lives currently. Some are giving too much and some are taking too much; some are likely doing a bit of both. This may be causing one or both parties to take on the stance of someone deserving of respect and admiration, whether that is the case or not, and is straining the relationship even further. There may even be demands that are coming up that were not agreed upon, but rather assumed by this person. We have all been working on feeling out new environments and/or mannerisms and reactions to situations. There has been progress, but there is still much more to learn. There will be more moments of sadness today, likely over personal matters. These can be a distraction from more important things. Recognize the emotion and let it out if necessary, but mind to what needs to be done regardless.

Tarot Reading for Wednesday, September 5, 2012

Ten of Cups, crossed by Nine of Swords, flanked by Knight of Pentacles and Ten of Swords

Many are in a fairly comfortable place right now; we feel at home and are enjoying looking back on our past accomplishments. This is complicated however by worry about loved ones. Likely, we are looking at people we care about in their present positions and both hoping better for them and that we don't end up in a similar position down the road. There has been a focus on organization and more structure lately, which will make it easier to concentrate on other things. By the end of the day, many of us will have drawn ourselves into a sorrow, over present and past matters, loss, or struggle. It's totally fine to feel this way at times; just don't let yourself get stuck there for too long.

Tarot Reading for Tuesday, September 4, 2012

The Empress, crossed by The Moon, flanked by Seven of Wands and Ace of Swords

There will be a great feminine energy about today, which may lend a bit of insight, enhancing our pursuits currently. There is something that we have each been looking for, and that search will intensify today, possibly to the point of encouraging negative behaviors, such as using others to meet our ends. Recently, we have all been working on moving forward from our pasts. Of course the movement happens naturally, but sometimes we need to keep ourselves looking in the right direction and not glancing back. Just as in yesterday's reading, we are reminded that we will come out on top of our present situations. Keep doing what you know needs to be done.

Tarot Reading for Monday, September 3, 2012

Five of Swords, crossed by Nine of Wands, flanked by Three of Pentacles and Four of Cups

Many will be tempted to do things today that they will likely regret later, especially in business negotiations. In fact, you'll probably know going in that what you want to do or say is a bad idea, but will be compelled to do so anyway. Keep this in mind and try to hold back a bit today. Another time will come when you are in a better mindset. This may come as an offshoot to a boost of confidence we've had lately in our abilities. There is no doubt the abilities are there, but this is not the right time. By the end of the day, many of us will have worked ourselves into a sadness, from the lack of something that once brought us pleasure and happiness. The fact is it's not there anymore. It's OK to revisit, but don't dwell.

Tarot Reading for Sunday, September 2, 2012

The Star, crossed by Knight of Swords, flanked by Six of Pentacles and Ace of Wands

There is a sense today that things are unfolding as they are meant to, and that luck may finally be returning to our sides. This is creating a sense of bravery in many of us; we will find ourselves ready to rush towards the things we desire, and ready to challenge anything that stands in our way. Lately, there have been a lot of people who are caring for many around them. This has created some strains. By the end of the day, many will feel that they have come out on top, having won a battle or conquered some obstacle. There is likely more ahead, but this is a refreshing change from recent struggles.

Tarot Reading for Saturday, September 1, 2012

King of Swords, crossed by The Lovers, flanked by Page of Wands and Page of Pentacles

Many of us feel that we have mastered our abilities to handle conflict and matters of control recently, especially in romantic relationships and very close friendships. There may be a tendency still at times to struggle with issues of control, or to try and exert control where it is unnecessary, but overall things have much improved. There is an acquaintance who has helped us see things in a different light recently, and this is likely contributing to our personal improvements. There will be a desire later to research a topic, to read, or to explore ideas in order to gain some specific knowledge.
