Best made plans and all that

Well I had planned to write this up yesterday and upload but I was struck down with a migraine.  So I will be almost a full day off my planned schedule.  Well lets go on with it.

Weekly Spread:

Card 1:  The Empress (R)

Guenevere: Insecurity, may be trying to hard.  Being too rigid.

Card 2: Ace of Spears

The Grail Lance:  The aces are to me harder cards.  There is just so little for my brain to lock onto.  To me I see this as looking for new directions, thinking outside the box for solutions.

Card 3: Four of Shields

The Homespun Tunic:  I love this card just because I love sewing and crafting items.  So I always this as rewarding creative and hard work.  Taking ones time to do something correctly.

My take away is that what is happening is not working.  Stop look again and find a better more stable way to do things.  Be more willing to look at the situation from all angles.

Weekly Spread

3 Cards

Mind/Body/Spirit

Since today is Labor day and I am off work I have done a simple 3 card spread to start off the week.  Friday I did a large spiritual based based reading for my birthday.  Today I will continue that string with a Mind/Body/Spirit spread.  Again I will not be delving into a solution as I am not really asking a question but just looking into myself for guidance.

Mind  - 9 of Shields ⤓ -Ragnell - looking too much at myself and centering my views as such

Body - 8 of Spears - The White Stag - youth, adventure

Spirit - 14 Temperance - The Cauldron of Annwn - Peace, renewal and balance.

Weekend Spread

I have been kinda bleak of late.  It makes pulling a daily tarot card a bit hard.  So this weekend I set down and did a simple 3 card spread.  I have decided to share that with you today to make up for missing the daily tarot today.

I did a relationship spread.  Layout is simple You, Them, and together.

Queen of Spears (Dindrane)→ Justice (Lady of the Lake) → King Of Swords (Mordred)⤓


Queen of Spears -  Strong woman seeking knowledge to help others.

Justice - GUT - being judged - determining worth

King of Swords ⤓ -  Being used, unfavorable outcomes.


-Reading-
I see the person is searching, possibly lost on their path, may be unsure of their place.  Justice as a person or group of people is read as judgmental or over-evaluating.  The King of Swords reverse states the out come of this current relationship is not a pleasant one.  People are going to feel cheated and manipulated.

Please feel free to let me know how you would see this reading and outcome.

DTC: Seven of Spears

Daily Tarot Card:

Seven of Spears

Arch of the Twelve Kings

This is a lovely card for today.  

I find this card to be very soothing.  It depicts 2 soldiers/Knights resting under an arch.  This arch is well light with statues of Kings set in the walls.  Each king is softly glowing with the color of candle light.  The top of the arch is decorated with a floral garland.  The arch feels like it is place of worship or reflection.  It would be someplace to go when you need guidance.

Usually I read this card as taking time to reflect and gather your bearings.  A quite moment of Zen before moving on with your plans.  Which is very different from the imagery in other decks.

Daily Tarot: Six of Spear

Daily Tarot Card

Six of Spears (reversed)

~The Return of Ambrosius~

The victors return.  This card is a celebration, a commander returning home victorious.  But we see this in reverse, turned on it's head.  For today this is not a card of celebration.  I will not think it utterly devoid of happiness but it is not a celebration anymore.  Possible in reverse this card is more returning home by the narrowest of margins or at some loss.  The castle is happy for those that have returned but remembering at what cost.

Six of spears carries this image of a joyous triumphant return in the Rider Waite deck.  The Celtic Dragon takes another image.  It still gives the impression of achievement but not a return.  I like the idea of the returning triumphant.

This card feels like a warning for today.  With the good will come the bad.  Tempering joy with reality.

Athurian/Rider Waite/Celtic Dragon/Shadowscape

*recap*
I was utterly exhausted on this day.  Nothing out the normal occurred.  I am doing this update 2 days later so I may not be remembering properly.
