Ok, so first of all I've been studding each individual card for a month, I'm not someone who just decided to do this out of nowhere. Also, I have rejected the suggestion of the Rider Waite deck and chose the fantastical tarot deck despite its lack of readability. I appreciate the depth and artistic dimension. Plus I have been looking at each card and finding how the image relates to its meaning. I did my first reading yesterday... and for the sake of clarity...the question(s) I asked were How do I go about finding my husband? What has been in my way of getting him? I used the celtic cross spread however there were many interpretations so this is the way I read it with each card. 1. emperor R. - present 2. death- challenge/opposition 3. knight of pentacles R.-distant past 4. 7 of wands R. -recent past 5. ace of pentacles- best out come 6. 7 of pentacles- near future 7. knight of swords - internal influences 8. hanged man - external/ enviorment influence 9. high priestess R. - hopes/ fears 10. 8 of cups R. Final outcome. I took this as meaning I am not ready for love and that I have been lazy and missed opportunities. I have a lack of confidence and I over anyalize. I fear loss of results. However I think my outcome cards turned out well... that in the end I will be full of growth, fulfillment, and I will learn how to move on. So what do you think... a new perspective would be helpful. Sorry this was so long. Just for some extra info...I have never dated... so that comment about the THIRD husband? What does that mean?
