Future Tarot

Last week, Miss Michele and I were tied up with other things and couldn’t host our usual Future-Tarot.com Tarot Chat (10am EST Wednesdays). Deb Wunder, a Future-Tarot writer, was there and was generous enough to fill in for us. Thank you Deb! Below is the reading Deb gave Tarot Chat regular, Wendy. And stay tuned today because Miss Michele and I will be here in a short while with this weeks Tarot Chat then later tonight (11pm EST) our very own Miss Michele will be giving free readings on RadioXShow!

[Wendy] So, do you read tarot as well?

[Deb] Yes, do you want me to read for you?

[Wendy] I won’t say no, I was hoping for a reading today. I think I’d like a general future reading if that’s okay with you. My husband and I want to start looking at buying our own house if that helps give direction?

[Deb] The first card is the Ten of Cups, or in my Native American Tarot Deck the 10 Vessels, that always indicates fulfillment and happiness. Things are actually pretty good where they are now and it’s not that you don’t like where you are living, but that you are both feeling it is time to move forward.

[Wendy] Absolutely.

[Deb] I get the sense that a new house will let you complete your family and that that’s part of what this desire is about.

[Wendy] That’s interesting because children have, at times, been in our discussions but nothing is set in concrete.

[Deb] The next card is the Eight of Cups (8 Vessels) which in my deck is labeled “Indolence”. I have always seen this more as ‘contemplation’ but, in this case, I think there is an element of over-thinking things. Over-thinking leads you to miss opportunities. It is kind of like not seeing the forest for the trees. Thinking it through before moving is not necessarily a bad thing, because it is important to have all the pieces in place.

[Wendy] Wow it’s amazing that you say that. I told hubby that I feel we’re missing opportunities. That’s a very good point.

[Deb] Don’t let yourself get paralyzed by that. The last card is the Six of Wands (6 of Pipes in my deck), which is labeled “Victory”. I think you will move, even if not in the next few months, and that it will be to the place that is absolutely right for you and your husband. Your new home allows you to achieve your real goals but as with all victories, there will be a cost. I don’t think it will be too large in your case but remember that winning the war may entail losing a battle or two. Keep persevering and you will make it to the other side.

[Wendy] That makes sense. Someone we know with medium capabilities recently told us that we keep missing opportunities because we are too caught up thinking of how to do things. We miss vital clues to progress on our paths. I’m trying to think of the way she worded it, oh, find the path to least resistance. She was saying that we were being our own worst enemies.

[Wendy] Thank you, again, for taking the time to give this reading.

Hi again, Miss Michele , I’m addicted to your readings. I’ve got a whole new query and I’d love to hear what your cards have to say.

I recently began contemplating an interesting move. It would only be a few blocks away, into the house my mother is about to leave. I’m far from completely decided, would it be a wise move? Does it make sense to sell the house I am currently in?

Thanks for your input, I’m looking forward to sharing what comes up in the cards.
–Rebecca Laffar-Smith

Miss Michele did a three-card spread for Rebecca, and the cards are pretty clear cut! It is entirely Rebecca’s choice, but the Tarot shows that if she makes the move, it will be a straightforward, profitable business deal and will go smoothly!

The past, or heart of the matter, is represented by the Six of Pentacles. Rebecca is being given an equitable deal, which would help both herself and her mother. She has the opportunity to “tip the scales” in her favor, financially… but is undecided.

The Ace of Pentacles in the near future, shows, quite literally, a hand offering a coin. The Tarot is telling Rebecca to take this deal! She’ll be offered what her house is worth, and the transaction will go well. Rebecca will get everything she needs to make the deal go smoothly.

The Ace of Wands in the outcome show that things will move quickly. The dual Aces in this reading show this is a big opportunity in Rebecca’s life that she would be wise to take. The new house may have better Feng Shui and energy than her current dwelling; creativity will thrive there.

Miss Michele has a reader question!! Happy dance!

Siddow asks:

What is the best way to deal with the obstacles in the path to my goal?

There is no way around it. Miss Michele feels called to do a simplified Celtic Cross spread to uncover the answer to this question.

Six cards for the price of three, a two-for-one sale. Consider it a “thank you.”

P.S. to readers… Miss Michele is joking… for the month of November, tarot readings are free! Just post your questions here!

On to Siddow’s question and answer:

At a glimpse, your answer is: hard work and learning.

Patience will help, too. Two major arcana cards in this spread indicate these obstacles are big ones–you are striving for a lifestyle change. You feel like you are almost there, but outside influences are holding you back. That is true–only because you are allowing them to.

Card #1, The Two of Rods, shows your experience to date.

You’ve been given (or created for yourself) some wonderful opportunities that got you on the path to success, perhaps jump-started your quest. But you were restless–change wasn’t (and still isn’t) coming quickly enough.
You’ve paved the way, built a strong foundation.

Card #2, the Eight of Cups, tells us where you are now.

Travel or a move is indicated; this assertion is supported by the Two of Rods and the Wheel of Fortune. This could be a physical change of residence or simply a shedding of your old lifestyle or a change of workplace. (Miss Michele isn’t clear on this!)

With the foundation firmly in place, you’ve said goodbye to your past lifestyle to focus on your new path. And though you feel as if anything would be better than your past situation, you don’t know what you’re walking into, and it’s scary.

Eights indicate progression to a new phase, moving on, and setting new priorities. You have two 8s in this reading! Keep moving forward. The only thing holding you back is fear of the unknown. (The obstacles will take care of themselves when you are ready).

The Near Future, the card in the #3 position, is the Three of Pentacles. You’ve got a grasp on things, now, and are using your talents to move ahead. You begin to enjoy the first rewards of the work you’ve been putting in. Hang in there!

Card #4 symbolizes you, Siddow, in the environment of the future. The Hanged Man, is the #12 Major Arcana–which breaks down to the number three.

That means you’re in a period of personal growth and creativity. But you’re tired of waiting. Things are at a standstill. Your business moves slowly. You’ve put in the work, you’ve reaped some rewards, but you believe it’s time for things to come to a head.

It’s not quite time, though. The Universe knows this. Take this waiting period to look at things from a different perspective.

Card #5 tells us the Best You Can Hope For, if you continue the path you are on. Remember–your fate is not pre-determined. The cards show only one possible path.

However, this isn’t a bad situation at all! The Wheel of Fortune (number 10, then end of a cycle) shows financial and emotional success!

As the Wheel turns, your luck will, too. You’ll need to make a decision and jump full-throttle into this new life, if that is what you want! Grab it, it’s yours!

Finally, card 6, the Outcome, shows more work ahead, in the Eight of Pentacles. The opportunities presented lead to still more chances to learn and improve. Overall, your work will be fulfilling–your time and effort is paying off.

The only obstacles in your path seem to be a desire to have everything today. Keep doing what you’re doing, keep learning, don’t give up.

A change of residence could be indicated to help you better fulfill your goals. If you are contemplating a move, go for it!
