Future Tarot

So my man is going to the dentist, to have his teeth pulled today. It’s much needed, but I know he will be in a lot of pain. So I asked the Deviant Moon Tarot what I can do to be supportive of him as he recovers. I chose a simple three card spread, with no positions, to get an overall view of the coming days and weeks. Hopefully he’ll bounce back quickly, but we will see.

Knight of Swords – The Devil – Seven of Swords

Knight of Swords: It’s time for me to swoop in and save the day! This knight is ready to charge, with his horse reared back, teeth bared. Under the knight’s armour he is dressed in red and gold, empowered to take on any adversary. He stands outside the castle walls, which gives the appearance of defense, although a good offense is a great defense. My goal here is to make sure that I am doing everything I can to support my man, and defend him from any attacks. Possibly watching closely for signs of infection, and making sure he eats properly! Well, as much as you can after having your teeth pulled, anyway.

The Devil: This cartoonish figure creeps along in a menacing, yet happy stance. He has metallic wings, and his skin is all red, just as you would imagine an idealized devil would be. He walks on a meteor with volcanic openings spewing smoke. In this reading, it does suggest that I indulge him in his wants and needs, and not become cross with him even when his requests seem strange. He is the only one who will know what he can handle, and I need to be supportive.

Seven of Swords: This poor sword eater has seemingly failed a number of times. He has five swords laying about him, as he lays on the ground. His legs are in the air, and he has one sword balanced along his feet, tied to another he is trying to insert into his mouth. It does remind me of the dentist! This one suggests that while the goal is the elimination of tooth pain, it is going to take more pain to get there. A small sacrifice now leads to greater rewards in the future. When the going gets tough, both of us would do well to remember this fact.

Overall, it seems like everything should go as well as planned. Nothing too unexpected here, so we can continue on with our plans without much disruption. I will be his champion, and supporter throughout this difficult time. Wish us luck, as we’re heading out the door very shortly!
