Tarot by WolfChild
Kasha, First of all, you have a plethora of pentacles in this reading! It seems to me that the relationship under consideration will have a practical, down-to-earth focus
This suit emphasizes security and material concerns
The divinatory meanings in the Celtic Dragon Tarot book are sometimes different from what is considered "standard
" I believe they are still useful, but it is probably a good idea to keep an eye on those traditional meanings
1
cover: influences, general atmosphere [b]2 cups[/b]
indicates great love (Well, I did ask about that!):- Wow! The perfect relationship card: Love, friendship, commitment
What more could you ask for? 2
crossing: negative or positive opposing forces [b]Queen Pent[/b]
must be me
I hope I'm a positive force but then I may not be aware of any subtle negative forces
She's nurturing and practical and concerned for others
Sounds like me
:- In the Celtic Dragon tarot, this card represents "future plans
" Do you have plans that might interfere with or inhibit a relationship (for example, career plans?) The Queen of Pentacles is good with finances but can be critical and demanding
Does this relate to you? 3
foundation: past basis [b]7 Wands[/b]
triumphs in the past, succeeded against opposition:- This card depicts a woman with strong will power — enough to accomplish her goal
It indicates difficulties or competition, so I think your interpretation is right on
4
behind you: passing influences [b]King Pent[/b]
could he be the man who gave up our great relationship 2 months ago when he got scared of the commitment he thought he wanted but got cold feel, but said "its not over til I give back your toothbrush" ?? Geez and they say women don't know what they want
Hah! He's in the behind you position so I guess he's going, going, gone
:- How interesting that you drew the Queen of Pentacles "mate," especially since you view her as yourself
Your interpretation certainly seems plausible
In this deck, the card implies "success in business and money
" Does this describe the man? 5
crowning: forces taking shape; possible future events [b]8 Pentacles[/b]
learning, education, new experiences? Not sure how it fits
except to learn something from past relationships?:- New skills and opportunities
You have the opportunity to regenerate your conscious mind
The children sit in the lovely, serene garden listening to the dragon read a book
What you learn will have a practical application (pentacles)
6
before you: forces already in motion [b] 7 Pentacles[/b]
be patient during this seemingly slow period, growth is occurring:- Mama dragon watches over her babies, protecting them as they sleep
Powers are dormant and progress has stopped for the time being
This may cause you to feel anxious
Be careful of wasting your efforts or "throwing good money after bad
" 7
feelings: apprehensions, fears [b]7 Cups[/b]
decide what it is I really want?:- Daydreams
Responsibility
On the card, each chalice contains something different
The man must choose
At some point you must choose between daydreams and reality, between thinking about a relationship and actually doing something about it
8
opinions: what others think about the matter [b]Ace Swords[/b]
new period of activity
not sure how this fits with position of "what others think"
unless others want me to shut off my computer and get out and be social??:- I think this makes sense
Others may ask "How do you expect to form or nourish a relationship if you don't take the initiative?" 9
hopes: aspirations, goals, dreams, desires [b]Knight of Pent[/b]
loyal, stable, true, hardworking, prosperous
are these qualities I'm seeking in a relationship?:- Wow! Pentacles court card again! Gains and losses, according to the Celtic Dragon Tarot
You win a few, you lose a few
It's important to maintain individuality and personal identity
Be conscientious and steadfast and you will achieve your relationship goals
10
outcome: resolution or final outcome [b]High Priestess[/b]
having faith in our intuition
look deep within for answers
Follow your intuition??:- Here's the power card in the spread
In this deck it represents unknown future (the future is in the process of being formed and is not jelled enough yet to fully predict)
The High Priestess is the Magician grown older, with mature power
Hidden influences are at work
Develop your intuition
Allow time for introspection
The solution may not appear "rational
