I like this approach as well, though only with 3 cardshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FOm-Bq33IMg IP: Logged |

After being influenced by tgem's question, I asked if me and my former partner were going to get married and be together forever. I "pulled":7 of Cups + 4 of Wands + Ace of Cups Funnily enough, this seems fitting for me. The answer appears to be yes, but the relationship will take effort and time to maintain. We may enter into the union equipped with so many ideals and illusions as to what we could be, or even, we may get married to solve some sort of "lack of bond" or we may be SO in love with the idea, but once that marriage happens... It's going to take time and effort to build/restore/maintain. It will require consistent effort. IP: Logged |

Well she could have been a little more compassionate in her reply maybe, but the spread you pulled just reflects your question and possibly emotional state so clearly that I`d hesitate to put too much stock into its prophetic potential. There we have the dream (7 of cups) of a lasting marriage (4 of wands) based on spiritiual and emotional overlfowing connectedness (Ace of cups). That is what you want, right? The question is is this what you`ll be getting? Maybe, maybe not. Maybe it IS a valid spread, but the 7 of cups as first card definitely warns us that "it`s not all as it seems to be", there are options and dreaminess. Like showing you one possibility of a future that you might like, but there are probably other options, how it can continue, too. BTW tarot cannot answer questions about "forever", as it is always limited to a certain timeframe, and actually can change with every step you take, everything you do and decide. if you change your path, your way of thinking or acting, then the future changes with it. That is why tarot or lenormand is always just showing a likelihooed of evolving events on the basis that you are standing on NOW. IP: Logged |

Oh, I wouldn't call them superficial, never. But, the cards seem trollish. Especially if you have A/C in there with 7/C. Speaking of trolling, if you look at 4/W, at those waving peeps... I think you're invested in this man very much, given that you inquire about the same matter in 3 different spreads. However, if you don't like the 1st spread and continue to ask the same question in hope you'll catch a good prognosis, you're likely to crash and burn, for the 1st reading is always on point.

1. Yes I am. 2. Not sure what 'trolling' means in this context. Sorry. 3. The situation has evolved, hence the various spreads. 4. If you have anything non-sarcastic and informative to relay to me, please go ahead... Until then, I think you're attempt at **** wit needs to be redirected. IP: Logged |

No sarcasm intended here, so please read seriously Ceri. I appreciate your disclaimer. It's always nice to get an informed dose of reality now and again. It's interesting that you use the word 'likelihood'. I am still a newbie to this and picking up some footnotes/caveats are always welcome. IP: Logged |

I wasn`t being sarcastic. And I read the spread as good as I could. But of course nothing is ever written in stone, and things can change, hence I use words like "likelihood". I donīt believe the cards show something definite, that MUST happen this way only. And I am extremely cautious when the 7 of cups comes up as first card; it depends on the context of course, but if asking for a serious stable commitment, the 7 of cups is too much "head in the clouds" to really be a good card to answer that. I also read a 3 cards spread in that the first card gives the basic answer, and the other two elaborate and give more detail, but always in context to the first card. What were your intention how the positions of the cards should be read? IP: Logged |

Oh no Ceri! You read my post in the incorrect tone I meant that I was not being sarcastic and that you should read the rest of my post seriously because I was being sincere.Next time, I will write that out in full. IP: Logged |

Yes and no questions are always tricky for me. I asked if an ex will contact me in the next week and got: 8 Pent Ace Swords King Pent R Because two cards are upright (positive), could be a yes but 8 Pents as the Key...tells me no. Ugh... IP: Logged |

Yes, no is ALWAYS tricky, but I prefer Lenormand cards for this (though even then it is not always accurate, just seems to be clearer than the psychological tarot)IP: Logged |

Ceridwen, I should start looking a Lenormand cards. So many people use them on this site. Nonetheless... Would you see this Tarot spread as a yes or no? IP: Logged |

I see it as a maybe, but probably after a long time of preparation, and if he finds the time (Ace of swords seems to be a Yes, 8 of pents needs time to reach perfection) IP: Logged |

Cross usually gives a No answer, BUT it is one of the most karmic cards (the tree being the other one). IP: Logged |

Yes, I agree with you.. But when the cross AND the key showed up..my interest peaked. I had also done another spread asking what he thought about me when we met on NYE? I pulled: mountain-ship-heart-TREE-woman Clarifier: mice So the tree was actually in there (heart-tree-woman) ?? I put the mountain- woman together as he thought I was HUGE LMAO!! He's only like 5'7 and I was 6'2 in heels I CANNOT make out what the Ship would indicate and I wasn't fond of the Mice at the end but maybe it just stood for being nervous? I dunno... IP: Logged |

T-Gem,Ship can be a journey, in this case one that lasts a long time, or it can come up for longing for someone or somewhere. So, maybe it is a lasting longing or hope for a lasting path (ship/tree) with this tall and also lonely woman (mountain/woman) who has touched his heart (heart) IP: Logged |

Ok, that fits..thanks! Although I still think the mountain + woman means he thought I was Huge .....but yes, lonely as well.
