Overview: Love is a new adventure for you, Becky. I sense a great deal
of insecurity, an inability to trust and a need to feel loved and
protected. These cards show that while you might want to cling to the
people in your life you’ll find greater happiness in seeking a greater
sense of freedom and independence. Independence doesn’t mean being a
hermit, but rather finding the love within yourself that makes it ok
to be with others but not needing to be with them. Love is another of
life’s experiences and it’s time to let go of your fears and embrace
adventure.

Becky’s past experiences in love: The Star
Love has been an adventure of faith and blind hope. With an eagerness
to love and be loved it is easy to ignore signs of discord and to
wallow in the bliss of a new romance without building the solid
foundation a lasting relationship needs to survive. Becky’s
experiences in love have released their share of confusion and pain
but Becky has clung firmly, perhaps unfulfilling relationships, in the
hope that love will find a way.

Becky’s current romantic state: The Hierophant
Now you’ve come to accept a need for greater depth and understanding.
You’re seeking answers and looking for meaning. Perhaps you’ve tired
of the more youthful ‘fling’ and want to discover what love can truly
be like in a relationship that is committed and fulfilling. You’re
seeking a guide to these emotions, someone who can share his
understanding of the heart and show you how to let love blossom in
your life.

What Becky wants from love: Nine of Swords
I feel like this card is telling us that you’ve been manifesting your
greater fears in your search for love. Anxiety, guilt, and envy can
color your true desires, overshadowing what you want and deserve in
your relationships. If your focus is constantly one of worst possible
outcomes, or what you don’t want, you’ll find these aspects coming
into your life. The Nine of Swords tells us to examine your feelings,
to seek out their source, but to ultimately let them go and allow
yourself to seek what you DO want, rather than trying to avoid pain.

What Becky needs from love: Ace of Swords
Inspired challenges and a sense of determination are what you truly
need from love. I get the feeling you’re used to getting your own way
but the man who will truly light the fire within will have the
strength to stand up to you. It can create some interesting sparks of
contention, particularly early in a relationship, but as depth grows,
so too will harmony and balance.

Why Becky deserves love: The Fool
You’re young, vibrant, and full of life! You want to leap out into the
world and explore. Love is perhaps life’s greatest adventure. It’s
time to explore the depth of emotions you’re capable of. I get the
feeling that relationships, deeper, meaningful, enriching
relationships are new to you and now is the perfect time to learn the
importance of giving. The Fool, who thinks only of himself learns that
the needs and desires of others, and more importantly taking part in
fulfilling those needs and desires are what make life worth living.

Becky’s Romantic Future: Knight of Wands
The Knight of Wands embraces adventure. It tells us that you’re not
ready for commitment and now is the time to be enjoying yourself and
experiencing life. Don’t settle for dull, solid, stable, you need
excitement! For the moment, love isn’t about finding that special
someone, it’s about embracing the wonder of life, of sharing that
wonder with others.
Right now, You are your one true love and everyone
else is just the chocolate cake of life.

The first feminine card I’ve drawn in weeks, the Queen of Swords symbolizes intelligence and cool practicality; head over heart; strong will and independence.

This shows my current emphasis on building up my business. I think I have passed a threshold. It is time to stop whining about what could have been, what was supposed to be, and get on with making the best of what is. Cool rationality wins out over raw emotions. Miss Drama Queen becomes Mrs. Professional.

Interestingly, the Queen of Swords emphasizes both teaching and journalism. My course for paintball writers begins tomorrow and I have recently helped a few fellow freelancers with in-depth critiques. I feel most motivated when I am teaching, instructing and guiding. It inspires every aspect of my life.

Let’s hope for more readings like this one.
