Anyone fancy a quick tarot card reading? (I need practice)

Trying to get better at reading the cards.

Anyone got something they want a quick answer too? Yes/no questions are ideal for the sake of speed but if you really want to know something else feel free to ask.

I'm NOT a psychic so you'll probably need to give some context. Just whatever you are comfortable with.

Just for fun guys. Don't take it too serious x

I love this, yes please! Are my two sons going to find good friendships?

Ok so I draw the two of cups which talks about strong partnerships. A brilliant sign for what I feel is talking about one of your boys. Perhaps friendships with the opposite sex are going to take off too as the partnerships I pull regarding it seem very boy girl, boy girl. Although these can be about energies rather than gender.

For your other lad I get a more complex reading. There is talk of someone who maybe doesn't connect so well with others, there can be drama at times and tbh he may be more inclined to be a bit of a loner. It can simply point towards him being stubborn and independent. Or perhaps, vulnerability. I think he really needs to find 'his tribe' in friendships. That can take time. But it's also important to recognise that we don't all want or need the same things from other people. Some of us are introverts for example.

Yes please - i feel i am changing and a big shift is about to happen but I dont know what or why? I feel so unsettled and restless! Can the cards tell me! Thank you(if you have time)

'I need to shake things up. I need to dance'.

At the start of this year I had a random feeling of happiness and knowing that this year was going to be...different. And it has been. I've done a lot of things that made me feel...alive. It's been a good year. And a tough year too.

Now I don't know if it's a similar thing coming towards you. But I wonder if before we get here, we put some plans in place for things that are going to shake up our lives. And when they draw near, sometimes we can feel them.

The cards talk about celebration. A celebration is coming after a period of uncertainty. There may be something to do with feminity or fertility here too. Assuming there's not a baby on the way? But I get celebration, celebration, celebration. Friendships may be key.

I think you know you're about to shake things up. Your body is telling you it's time. And the unsettled feeling, may be fear of the unknown because the unknown is scary. We feel ourselves changing in order to become who we need to be to make the changes we need in our lives. It's time to ask yourself what it is that needs to change.

Yes please. Will I get either of the jobs I went for interviews this week for please

I see communication coming in quickly.

Infact communication comes up prominently in this reading. As does leadership, if relevant.
There's a lot of fire and determination.
It may be the interviewer recognised that in you.

I do see an offer coming in. I do not know if it is from either of these jobs but I feel you won't be out of work for much longer. The energy is very 'go getter' and someone appreciates that.

Thank you OP, thats a really lovely reading and i feel its now given me some positivity as i was a little nervous of my unsettled feelings. I was feeling a sense of dread to be honest. Theres no baby on the way but I have been dreaming of giving birth (too old) and love affairs (happily married) which was making me again, think there were changes or upheaval ahead. I have some lovely family and friends and the thought of celebrations with any of them is something i would very much enjoy. This has made me feel very optimistic about the coming months x. Thank you so much

Your most welcome socksorter.
Just a side note. There's something about travel or moving or a journey in your cards too. I didn't like to say leaving a partner because there's nothing suggesting that but it feels like someone going off somewhere on a journey. Something physical is coming like a tangeable shift or move.

yes please if you have time. DD is autistic and ADHD, will she get the college we both want for her?

Ok so the first thing that popped out in the reading was something about burnout.
Which maybe makes sense considering the nature of autism and ADHD. There is a warning here about being vulnerable to negative influence. I think it's very important that a chat is had about self care and how to spot people who maybe don't have her best interests at heart before any college move.

There's something about the home. I don't know if she intends to stay home during her studies?

There's such a wistfulness, a looking out at dreams she wants to strive for and that feeling of 'why can't I?' A feeling of being cooped up.

I can see an offer coming in.
And such a desire to take it. But I worry she...how to put this, she has a lot of ideas. Ideas and dreams and things she wants to begin. But sometimes the reality and the follow through is a different thing entirely.
I do see her making her dream a reality but there is a message about being patient and being patient with herself. This isn't going to be easy.
There is upset.

I don't know if I should say but it's like someone who gets the offer by changes her mind about going or who goes and decides it's not for her and comes back. But then finds something that fits her better.

I could be wrong though, it could simply be teething troubles.
I draw the ten of cups as an overall outcome which is happy. It's a happy card. It was never going to be easy for her but she will find her way. All you can do is have her back as you always have and let her know she's not alone and whatever happens you'll support her.

Hi @Sodthesystem I think you’ve picked up
on lots here but not necessarily in the future.
Something about the home - DD hasn’t been to school for more than 3 years due to burnout but has had a tutor at home for the last 18 months.

The offer sounds like the offer we received from local authority for the college we don’t want. I wasn’t going to visit it but changed my mind and then came back afterwards knowing it wouldn’t suit DD at all. Then the college withdrew the offer saying they couldn’t meet need.
I completely agree about the reality and the follow through and DD can be very hard on herself and always assumes she is wrong about things.
Not sure about the negative influence but do know she’d find it/them very hard to spot.

Thanks so much for an insightful reading.

This is scarily accurate! I have two boys, one who is very happy go lucky and social. The older is definitely more introverted with big feelings. I worry about him and that he often isolated himself due to feeling uncomfortable or nervous!
I agree that once he finds his hang he’ll hopefully feel more confident and settled.

thank you so much for your insight 🙂

Funnily enough in my second paragraph I actually wrote 'for the second boy' at the beginning and then thought I'd change it to 'other' because i had a feeling the cards were saying it was infact the older lad that was more introverted.

But I thought I probably couldn't be that specific and that other worked for both anyway. So that's interesting to know that they did even suggest that.

Hopefully it'll all work out itself out in time. I don't envy kids these days. They have it tough.

thank you so much. I have just thought, my mum has been quite ill and has started new medication that is working and could start having more energy and feeling better than she has in a long time, wondering if this is the new life (baby)
anyway, definitely feeling good about this reading

Yes please. Is my life going to get better?

Ok so I see a flurry of activity.

Burden/exhaustion, speed around either a succession of things happening currently that feel like bang bang bang (like it's difficult to take a breather) or something that is soon to come in that may revolve around either uncertainty or dishonesty.

This feels to me like things might get a little more...intense before they start to shift for the better.

The words 'let go' appear several times when looking for extra info. The lovers card also pops out several times. This implies to me either that relationships are a great source of this stress for you. Or, that the cards want you to be more kind to yourself and are raising issues around things like self limiting beliefs and negative self talk which may be making your life harder.

I also pull the devil card which may again point towards dishonesty or deceit a dangerous or selfish person in your surroundings but can also be a warning about unhealthy habits like drinking too much or other vices like shopping addiction or porn or anything to do with the seven deadly sins really.

It looks to me like there's going to be a completely fresh start. It might involve hitting rock bottom first. Or some sort of sudden event or piece of information or realisation that makes you decide enough is enough and something needs to give. A wake up call is coming in.

More let go in the form of an affirmation card that reads 'let go of the things that no longer serve you'.

My feeling is that there's going to be a big shift. A clearing out of negative energy in order to bring in positive change. The nature of life is one of change, so know that things will always get better at some point, they will not stay stuck. But sometimes you need to be the instigator of change.

Will I get the payment we need?

It does look like money is coming in. Either from a male in a position held high esteem or from an organisation.

There may also be some family relevance here. Either support from family or it's simply talking about this being good for the family.

Will we end up together?

NOW STARTING POSTS FROM 19th.

This is a read of be careful what you wish for. One person is in a place of innocence. The other, in a place of sins and lusts.

Now this can mean lusting after someone who just isn't wired that way or is totally oblivious. Eg: a crush on someone who has no idea.

Or it can point to a situation where the person who has feelings is taken advantage of as a result.

I'm assuming this isn't someone you are already with but if it is it points to a possible power imbalance that may cause issues. Or a clash in issues like each person's desires for the relationship. Or, morality.

Fun may be on the cards. Romance too. But this is not a long term, healthy connection.

Also…. Will I ever find room for a relationship again? 🙂

Oh, hello again haha.

I draw the star card. A woman fills a cup from a stream in one hand and in her other hand she holds a cup that loses water. It does seem apt in imagery in that in trying to fill a cup, another one leaks out. Which of course could be the fear.
That in catering for your own needs, something else suffers.

But the star card I've always found to be one filled with promise. With following your stars. A card of freedom and self fulfilment.

I also draw temperance. Patience.
And the magician. Creating your own destiny.

The cards seem hope filled. It might take a little time and maneuvering to get the balance in your life right but it's a pretty firm yes imo.

I do see movement and being protective of or conserving money. There's talk of releasing what you no longer need to carry. I wonder if this is downsizing.

There is something about assertiveness and asking for what you want. It makes my think of going to an interview and telling them 'this is the salary I expect'. Know your own worth and be clear about what you deserve.

It's only letting people down if you don't fight for what you want. All we can do is do our best and if it doesn't work out, there no shame in losing. We adapt. And something else will come up in its own good time.

Thank you so much for the reading, it sounds a bit ominous! I don’t think I can downsize further but hopefully there’s enough rope left in the current job until I find something new. I’ve never felt stable there after redundancy 8 years ago, I found this job almost immediately but something has always felt off.

thank you ever so much for taking the time, I really appreciate it

Me please! Complicated love situation and I want to know if there will be progress & how to overcome the obstacles we have. Also how to get more confidence within the relationship. Thank you so much!

Ok so a lot came up here.

Twice the seven of swords popped out you see which depicts someone who is carrying a heavy burden. I want to be sure that you are not carrying this alone. One person cannot fix a relationship on their own. It takes both partners to want it and to be willing to do the work.

Just a side note too, in this card the person also caries 5 swords and looks back at 2 he has dropped. This can point to issues around infidelity. Or, issues of hanging onto the past, unable to enjoy what they currently have.

Something is heavy. Perhaps past emotional damage. There is something around healing which also makes me wonder regarding health issues. Also the word 'bashfullness' which may be something revolving around intimate health or feelings regarding intimacy.

There is a wistfulness. An issue connecting dreams with reality. Someone might be imagining more into the relationship than there is in some way.

I want to say that wounds cannot heal with thorns still in place (Annnnd that doesn't sound dodgy at all).

It seems some information is coming in or something change is set to happen in winter or spring. Perhaps around the time the snowdrops start to come out.

I don't know how else to say this but, I really don't like this situation. It's not to say I don't like the relationship of course. But I keep getting 'heavy heavy heavy'. Perhaps smothering too.

I hope whatevers going on here you can resolve.
I leave you with one last thought which was coming up - how much supporting should a pillar need? When it's its job to BE that support.
