I'm taking up the Tarot again after a 20 year hiatus. I would like to practise, if anyone is up for a) asking me a question and then b) giving me some feedback.

(I'll be here until my tea's ready Smile ).

Hey @HopefulM, thank you for replying to my request for questions. I had to take a break from reading today. I spent the day being creative with the cards. I hope to return soon.

I wanted to say that I feel the privilege of you reaching out to me. I hope you can also reach out to more people. Are you in touch with your doctor or a counsellor?

I hope you are feeling more refreshed OP.
If you are able could you please advise whether the new hobby I am thinking of taking up would work as a small business? I can give more detail on the hobby if that’s helpful?

@Apprentic

Thank you for your feedback *@TheDoveFromAboveCooCoo*.

Also celebrating small steps - I am trying to learn to walk again. I am realising that it's the small intuitive interpretations, that I hesitate to include, are the ones that seem to most hit the mark.

I wish you well with your recovery.

Yep and that was the bit that stood out to me the most. Trust in yourself!!!

[quote Apprentic]**@prettyisall* If you get time, I'd love to know: 1) Can you see DP and I moving in together? 2) WilI have anymore children?)

I did a general reading with these two queries in mind.

The cards tell of a new journey and new beginnings. Trust the process, be playful, follow your dreams. This is a time to be open and spontaneous. Play light. I also see success. This is a result of your own determination and concerted efforts. You have worked hard for something.
There's a young blond man, he's confident and sometimes a bit arrogant?[/quote]
Thanks @Apprentic

Here's some feedback.

Makes sense I think...

My Fixed rate mortgage is up in a few months so I have been contemplating what to do... ie, both selling up and buying together.

The working hard part and success may be at work, I have recently (last week) been told of a pay rise for March.

The younger blonde man...
Well my DP is 7 years younger than me, often arrogant but in a jokey way, he is not blond though, brown.

Thanks again Smile

I set aside some time before going out to do a quick reading reading for @HopefulM

I see a woman withdrawing and seeking solitude, she is looking for answers inside herself. She needs quiet and she also needs guidance. In the future I see a successful woman. She is capably juggling the different parts of her life, her career and her household. There are two little girls around, I think they are related to her.
From what you have said, this reading made sense to me, so I looked a bit further from how you get from one to the other. You can tap in to your inner strength, be patient with yourself. Learn how to be gentle towards yourself, practise self-compassion. This is how you will succeed in your goals.
(And get in touch with the professionals for support! There is a kind and wise person out there who will support you).

@WhalesTales Should I back off?

At first I was going to ask if my reading was too late, and you'd already made a decision. But then the cards strongly showed someone struggling with a decision. You're trying to keep yourself safe from harm and that's why you can't decide, but the indecision is killing you. You can't see the wood for the trees?
I also see bright sunshine, a woman enjoying vitality and warmth. I tried to read how you get from one to the other, but again the cards showed the woman struggling with the decision. Presuming I am right and you're still not sure whether to back off or not, I'm wondering how it would feel if you did back off? What would that mean for you?

@joysmoy66 What will happen with my marriage?

I see a big choice for you to make, it's a binary choice. You should trust to your own personal values and beliefs, do not be swayed by others around you. I also see a period of introspection and withdrawing. Again, you must look inside for the answers. The cards showed a period of reassessment, you need to shed excess, remove things from your life that are no longer serving a purpose or serving you. If you do this an older man will bring structure and love to your life.
This was one of those readings which doesn't make much sense to me, but I think/hope will resonate with you far more.

@Apprentic it would break my heart although I think it is already broken. I am struggling so much. But I want to live my life in the future full of happiness and feel content with my lot. I don't know how to get there.

Your reading made me cry. It is accurate.

joysmoy66 · 02/02/2022 09:04

Thank you so so much for taking the time for me. That really all makes sense.

WeatherwaxOn · 02/02/2022 09:13

Will my loved one make positive progress with their issue?

sergeantmajor · 02/02/2022 09:53

May I ask @Apprentic, I reassure my son that things will get better for him, but I am terrified that they won't. What does the future hold for him? Thank you.

@Apprentic

I want to thank you for being so kind and generous to me, I'm so grateful and privileged that you have taken time out of your life to respond and look for some answers for me. This means so much to me, I can't tell you, I'm very sorry I made you late this morning, you are such a wonderful person to do this for me, I wish I could send you the biggest bunch of flowers for even caring and noticing me.

Your reading made so much sense, it was as if you opened my soul and saw everything. I am majorly withdrawing but desperately trying to hold on, for my sake alone. I wish I was normal, and able to cope. I get comfort knowing the future will be okay, and I would love to achieve something and be successful, I'm just so scared. I feel so broken and have been trying to be kind to myself. Your words and reading have really made an impact on me, I'm so emotional again typing this, I get upset when people are kind to me, please forgive me, I just can't handle it. I know I can be strong, but I crumble so easily. And I know how pathetic this sounds, but I'm terrified of being without my mum, it's hindering my life a lot as I also care for her. I'm a mess

I don't have two little girls around me, I've been racking my brains, and there are no connections to me, and I'm so sorry about that.

I've had therapy before but I struggled with it, but I will try again now, you've given me hope, something that I struggle to feel and I need to give myself a proper chance, I don't want to feel this awful and sad anymore

If my post seems all over the place, I'm sorry, I'm trying to process everything you've told me, I'm all over the place!

You are an angel, I really, really cannot thank you enough for what you have done for me, I'm so grateful and I know this will stay with me.

Thank you for your kindness, it means so, so much to me, honestly, it really does, I can't tell you, I feel so lucky. Words don't seem enough here, thank you forever, you're amazing

These are amazing! Not sure if you are still doing it, but if you are..
What does my life look like 5 years from now?

BlondeDogLady · 02/02/2022 12:20

I would love to know if anyone who has passed, is looking out for me. And whether I will achieve something that I am currently really trying hard to do. A reading would mean the a lot to me. xx

Apprentic · 02/02/2022 14:31

@KittensTeaAndCake I'd appreciate your help with the question 'where is my cat?' He's been missing for 3 weeks now 😫 and I'll try anything.

I am not convinced that Tarot can help with this, but I am practising, so I gave it a go.

He's a hot, sunny spot outdoors, near an office or similar workspace. He's very happy.

(I am still not convinced Tarot can help with something like this - let me know).

@howdidigettobe50something My question is should I continue to just settle... I'm actually not sure I'm asking exactly the right question though.

This is a time for letting go. Remove things from your life that are no longer good for you. Declutter. Get rid of extraneous things, this really is a time for for getting back to basics. I see you spending time alone, seeking out solitude and quiet in order to reflect and figure out what's next for you.
There are unsettled feelings around this reading, it's not a comfortable one. It's paradoxical, you must go back to go forward, you must let let go in order to gain.

@Mommabear20 Should I do something risky but wanted our stay safe and forever wonder what if?

This was a strong reading! All about personal action, taking initiative and demonstrating leadership.
I see a start of something new, a new venture. There are high levels of creativity and drive. I can see a woman who has built firm foundations and she has a secure base. But she is looking out and seeing potential. She's not yet decided whether to venture out though.
This was a very energising spread, so much energy and promise about, but it will need effort. You will need to put the work in.

(I keep seeing flowers, like a spray or garland??).

@TheVolturi Is my friend in love with me (I hope not!)

This reading was full of your discomfort. I see someone hiding her eyes from the truth. There is an aversion to wanting to make a decision, you want to protect your heart from being heart. This is holding you back from moving forward. There is a lot of "stuck" feeling in this reading.
I see clear thinking though. You must trust to your intellect. There is a problem that will be solved by your mind or thoughts, not emotions or intellect. Funnily, there was only you in this reading, nobody else. My gut feeling is that this means 'no, your friend isn't in love with you".

@whitewashing My nephew has had a run of bad luck, will things get better?

Wow. This was an overwhelmingly positive reading. I see everything coming together, integrated and falling in to place. Of course, these moments don't last forever in life, but this is a period of rest and "birds coming home to roost" in a good way.
I see an establishment of some sort, I think it's an educational setting. This is a time to fit in, conform to expectations and belong to a group identity.

OP posts:
Apprentic · 02/02/2022 14:57

@AllTheSunshine Please could you tell me if my newish relationship will last

This was an "earthy", grounded reading. I see material comfort - good health and financial prosperity.
You are waiting for a shock or disappointment I think? One of you has been badly betrayed in the past and is holding back because of this. It was a sexual betrayal. However, it's the old cliché, of what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. It's ok for things to be different this time.
