How is MJ and I going to be for now?

Four of Pentacles - Control, stability, security, possession, conservatism

Seven of Pentacles - Vision, perseverance, profit, reward, investment

Four of Cups (Reversed) - Boredom, missed opportunity, being aloof

Well this is interesting.... and kinda depressing!



Taken from the start it was alwaus about stability. we would balance each other out really well and enjoy each other company and would help push each other in the right ways, the current card would should that we have spent some time investing in ourselfs and having some idea of where we are heading 

The outcome depends on if you read reversed cards or not. If i take away the reversed card i would have got "Meditation, contemplation, apathy, re-evaluation" and it would add a very different look at this spread and taking that as we will take a look and check ourself before morning forward on opur paths but as a reversed card it looks like we have missed our chance and its going to be something of different completely. 

How's bubbles doing at the festivel?

Nine of Pentacles - Gratitude, luxury, self-sufficiency, culmination

Three of Swords - Painful separation, sorrow heartbreak, grief, rejection

Ace of Pentacles - Manifestation, new financial opportunity, prosperity

Doing the normal of taking the cards from my heart im going to roll in with the she was doing well and getting along with things till she went to the festival.

While there she needed to do some dealing with the issues that I was aware of (hopefully this is done with now and she has seen him and sorted herself out)

When she comes back its going to be about new start, opportunity and the push forward to new things, Does this include new shiny things from ness or will she be rejoining me - I guess we will find out.

I am kinda looking forward to seeing that face in the next few days.

Cups

The Suit of Cups is representative of the element of water.

The Suit of Cups Tarot card meanings deal with the emotional level of consciousness and are associated with love, feelings, relationships and connections. Cups are about displays of emotion, expression of feelings and the role of emotions in relation to others. The Cups Tarot cards indicate that you are thinking with your heart rather than your head, and thus reflect your spontaneous responses and your habitual reactions to situations. Cups are also linked to creativity, romanticism, fantasy and imagination.

The negative aspects of the Suit of Cups (i.e. when the Cups cards appear reversed) include being overly emotional or completely disengaged and dispassionate, having unrealistic expectations and fantasising about what could be. There may be repressed emotions, an inability to truly express oneself and a lack of creativity.

The Suit of Cups traditionally represents the west and autumn. If using an ordinary deck of playing cards, Cups are represented by the Suit of Hearts.




Suit of Cups Personality Characteristics

The people represented by the Suit of Cups (i.e. typically the Court Cards) are emotional, artistic, humane and creative. They are connected with their emotional selves and will draw energy from what they feel within. They are said to correspond to the water signs in the zodiac (Pisces, Cancer, Scorpio) and to water as a symbol of the subconscious mind and reason.
Cups Cards in a Tarot Reading

Should a Tarot reading be predominantly Cups cards, then you can be sure that the client is seeking solutions to what are primarily emotional conflicts, love matters and emotions.

Wands/Staffs

The Suit of Wands is representative of the element of Fire. The Suit of Wands Tarot card meanings are associated with primal energy, spirituality, inspiration, determination, strength, intuition, creativity, ambition and expansion, original thought and the seeds through which life springs forth. Wands deal with the spiritual level of consciousness and mirror what is important to you at the core of your being. They address what makes us tick – our personalities, egos, enthusiasms, self-concepts, and personal energy, both internal and external.

Wands are also indicative of all things that you do during the day to keep you busy, be it working at the office, home or the great outdoors. Wands have to do with movement, action and initiatives and the launching of new ideas. They may be indicative of a never-ending ‘Ideas List’ or ‘To Do List’, whereby the client has many projects on the go to keep them busy.

The negative aspects of the Suit of Wands (i.e. when the Wands cards appear reversed) include illusion, egotistical behaviour, impulsiveness, a lack of direction or purpose, or feeling meaningless.

When referring to timing in a Tarot reading, the Suit of Wands traditionally represents Summer or weeks. In a deck of playing cards, Wands corresponds to Clubs.

Wands represent the Fire signs of Leo, Sagittarius and Aries. Wands people (as typically seen in the Court Cards) are energetic, charismatic, warm, spiritual.
Wands Cards in a Tarot Reading

Should a Tarot reading be predominantly Wands cards, then you can be sure that the client is seeking solutions to issues that are based mainly in the realm of thought, or are in the first stages of development. The client may also be seeking greater purpose and meaning in their lives and will want to understand more about what motivates and energises them.

Pentacles/Coins

The Suit of Pentacles (also known as Coins or Disks) is representative of the element of Earth. The Suit of Pentacles Tarot card meanings cover material aspects of life including work, business, trade, property, money and other material possessions. The positive aspects of the Suit of Pentacles include manifestation, realisation, proof and prosperity.

Pentacles deal with the physical or external level of consciousness and thus mirror the outer situations of your health, finances, work, and creativity. They have to do with what we make of our outer surroundings – how we create it, shape it, transform it and grow it. On a more esoteric level, Pentacles are associated with the ego, self-esteem and self-image.

The negative aspects of the Suit of Pentacles (i.e. when the Pentacles cards appear reversed) include being possessive, greedy and overly materialistic, over-indulging and not exercising, not effectively managing one’s finances, and being overly focused on career to the detriment of other life priorities. Often what is required to counteract these negative aspects is a return to nature to ground oneself and rediscover what is truly important. In addition, there may be blockages in being able to manifest ideas and plans resulting in a lack of success. Better goal-setting and planning is required.

When referring to timing in a Tarot reading, the Suit of Pentacles traditionally represents Autumn or years. In a deck of playing cards, Pentacles corresponds to Diamonds.




Suit of Pentacles Personality Characteristics

Pentacles represent the Earth signs of Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn. Pentacles people (as typically seen in the Court Cards) are practical, career-minded, down-to-earth and generous. They are tactile beings and like to experience the physical, tangible world. They are connect through the senses and seek pleasurable and sometimes indulgent experiences.

Swords

The Suit of Swords is representative of the element of Air. The Suit of Swords Tarot card meanings are associated with action, change, force, power, oppression, ambition, courage and conflict. Action can be both constructive and/or destructive, sometimes resulting in violence. This suit can also mean hatred, battle, and enemies, and of all the suits, this one is considered to be the most powerful and dangerous.

The Suit of Swords deals with the mental level of consciousness that is centred around the mind and the intellect. Swords mirror the quality of mind present in your thoughts, attitudes, and beliefs. Swords themselves are double-edged and in this way the Suit of Swords symbolises the fine balance between intellect and power and how these two elements can be used for good or evil. As such, the Swords must be balanced by spirit (Wands) and feeling (Cups).

The negative aspects of the Suit of Swords (i.e. when the Swords cards appear reversed) include anger, guilt, harsh judgement, a lack of compassion and verbal and mental abuse.

When referring to timing in a Tarot reading, the Suit of Swords traditionally represents Winter or Spring, or months. In a deck of playing cards, Swords corresponds to Spades.

Swords represent the Air signs of Aquarius, Libra and Gemini. Swords people (as typically seen in the Court Cards) are intelligent, thoughtful, rational, logical and excellent communicators. They are rational beings and like to experience the world by understanding and analysing what is occurring around them. On the flipside, Swords people can be ruthless, domineering, confrontational and rigid.

Oh where to start?

Will the issues of last night effect mine and Vs relationship?

Queen of Wands - Exuberance, warmth, vibrancy, determination

This just made me giggle...

Last night post shoot with V and Efs we sat down to have some food, Efs pointed out the paddle that was sitting on top of my toy box... V asked a few questions that I dont think she was ready to ask and without really giving away to much in the way of information she suddenly become a very different person, Quite and short, Wanting to leave the flat asap, finishing her food as soon as she could shavel it into her face and then left, I could see the monkey brain going and the ideas forming in her head towards the idea of my playing with other people - Now these toy have not been really used since we broke up but I dont think that even helped the images in her head.

So I asked the cards if this event is going to change whats happening between us, IE is it going to make her want more space and time away as we have just starting hanging again (as friend)

The giggle from the start comes from the fact that the Queen of Wands is holding a riding crop, something Kink people use during play time.

The image is of a kinda pissed off looking lass, riding a horse, blonde hair and top hat, crop in hand, telling me she was once the one to do the whipping and riding and while I think she still thinks that about herself, she is struggling to take on borde that Now I am the one doing the doming,

Are we going to hit it off tonight?

Tonight I am off to the burning pub, A place where people like myself visit - Once a month people from the burning man crew all meet in a London Pub, This will be my 4th time to the event and funny enough I have never been to a burning man, I would love to do one one day and the fack that i know have a driving license means i'm one step closer to doing it

Anyone's, the last time I was there I got chatting with a few girls, one of whom was a friend of my mate KK, Lets call her IS... Well While I was chilling out with Bubbles the other night IS sent me a bit of a drunken text and make it clear that she would like to meet me on a more personal basics... I did the nice thing and said that I would love to see where this goes but lets talk about it when not drunk - its only nice right.

We cleared the fact that we are both poly as i through she had a man already (best to clear these things)

Any ways, back to the cards... I asked the question above and pulled this

Eight of Cups - Escapism, disappointment, abandonment, withdrawal

Queen of Swords - Quick thinker, organised, perceptive, independent

Queen of Cups - Emotional security, calm, intuitive, compassionate

Finding it very intresting that they are all high cards, and while there is a lot of emotions going on with the cups, the Swords are there to to know that there is some action as well,

The Eight of Cups is telling me that there is a lot of chose and picking the right one can mean some disappointment but also a little of something different,

The Queen of Swords always tells me that there is action just waiting for the right time to struck out into action

Lastly Queen of Cups, This is the first time i have pulled this card with this deck, she is the cover on the box and one of my fav images from this set, A strong woman stand with her cup to the sky as if cheering on the things to come, knowing all and enjoying every little bit of it...

So I'm taking this as a chose to give something a try and it will have some fun and  good times to come, if its a good outcome this could become a regular things between us

Will she get the job?

Knight of Pentacles - Efficiency, routine, conservatism, methodical

King of Swords - Clear thinking, intellectual power, authority, truth

Chariot - Control, will power, victory, assertion, determination

What will the relationship between me and bubbles be like?

Six of Cups Reversed - Stuck in the past, naivety, unrealistic

Knight of Cups - Romance, charm, ‘Knight in shining armour’, imagination

Three of Cups - Celebration, friendship, creativity, community

Reading this as a past present and future and going by the images on the cards - A full set of Cups tells me its going to be some strong feelings and very emotional, creative and fun!

Reading these cards is telling me that we both come from a place that we through we would be happy and content and it ended up being negative and something of a learning experience- Something we would learn and take into the next stage of our lives,

The Knight stand all by herself, strong and confident and with the added extra of it being a cup means its about emotion and being strong in ones self. A pull to create and be very imaginative.

The future card to me says there will be a lot of fun between us and the image with 3 people tells me that this will be something interesting being as we are both poly and open to new and different things.

This spread gives me a very good feeling about things to come and I really do enjoy where we are at and hoping that its something to continue.

Will Fluff be coming over this summer?

Ten of Wands - Burden, responsibility, hard work, stress, achievement

Four of Swords- Contemplation, recuperation, passivity, relaxation, rest

I don't think it's a coincidence that I pulled this card today... 

I had a little look at Vs profile to see how she was doing today and exchanged a few messages about sorting out some things. 

She still brings a pull to my heart and I think it will be a while till this feeling goes completely
