Future Tarot

Our one-year spread is always a big seller this time of year, and Tilanthis kicks it off with our first reading.

In 2008, he experienced a new job, a major move and several other life changes related to his associates and hobbies, predicted here by Miss Michele.

Let’s see what 2009 holds in store…

Overview: Looking at the year as a whole, by this time next year, Tilanthis will once again experience intense changes. His life will be very different. Lasting love was not in the cards in 2008, but January kicks off with a new love interest. The Hermit, the card for the year, indicates introspection and Tilanthis “reinventing” himself.

January: Queen of Pentacles: Tilanthis will meet a nurturing, strong-minded career women who complements him perfectly.

February: Three of Cups: This will be a honeymoon period (though not in the literal sense) for Tilanthis and his new love, marked by celebration, happiness and getting to know one another better.

March: Ace of Swords: Tilanthis faces a turning point in the relationship, when his lady’s strong wit and independence “cuts” him. There will be disagreements. It’s that magical “three-month mark” of a new relationship, and they will enter a new phase.

April: Three of Swords: March’s love problems may result in a break-up or broken heart. The combination of the Ace and Three of Swords indicates a rough spring for Tilanthis.

May: Five of Swords: May looks brighter as Tilanthis and his love interest begin talking again, but there are trust issues. Miss Michele would also like to introduce the possibility that this card doesn’t relate at all to his love relationship. Tilanthis’ “karmic debt” is that he attracts gossipers and backstabbing people. In 2009, he can begin to better deal with these personality types, taking the higher ground in all his relationships and also being more aware of this force in his life.

This assertion is supported by June’s card…
June: Nine of Wands: Tilanthis repeatedly finds himself in a game of one upmanship with people, but he will win by taking the higher ground.

July: Knight of Swords: Positive change comes in July with this Knight. Knights are action just beginning. Tilanthis is tired of sitting around waiting for what he wants to come to him. He takes initiative to go after it. However, in mid-year, he begins to lose his focus on all things romantic. Things come easily to him in career and social matters, but not in love. When it gets hard, he steps back and re-prioritizes his life.

But he’s taking some positive steps to get what he wants in Summer 2009, by going after it. Miss Michele keeps thinking of the phrase: “Storming the Castle.” But Tilanthis needs to learn balance between love and life.

August: Ace of Rods: The summer’s changes began violently, but by August, he begins to draw an effective plan, taking a systematic approach to his life changes. Miss Michele sees a new job or a promotion, or possibly even a new hobby and a whole new group of friends. Think lifestyle overhaul.

September: The Magician: This card has come up frequently in Miss Michele’s readings for Tilanthis, and is the first Major Arcana in this spread. Tilanthis will begin using his talents to the best of his abilities, taking on a leadership role or possibly even starting a new business endeavor. His networking abilities are effective and that is a key part of his life come the fall. In the spring, he felt restless and unfulfilled… he desires control, leadership and social activities and goes after them in the fall.

October: The Hanged Man: The second Major Arcana in this reading shows Tilanthis re-evaluating his life. He’s gotten what he thought he wanted, but is it really him? He tends to be a chameleon but, as such, has lost touch with his true self. The Hanged Man indicates a period of waiting in which Tilanthis looks at things from a different angle. He’s going to find a new life, new friends, new job or hobbies… but it’s really just what he had before, albeit with a fresh coat of paint. It’s not true change. Is it what he wants? Is this the path he’s destined to walk or is there something more, something different he can manifest?

November: The World: When Tilanthis makes the choice, the “World” is his for the taking.

December: Page of Rods: The Page of Rods in December shows Tilanthis looking at everything with a child’s eyes. With everything else in place, Tilanthis can once again begin his search for true love, opening his heart to the opportunities.

It’s going to be a significant fall and winter for Tilanthis. The overall theme for the year is indicated by the Hermit… it will be a year of introspection which will benefit Tilanthis come year’s end.

Please come back and tell us how the Tarot’s observations manifest!

Jennie Dee asks: Is it possible to give a prediction of when I might get pregnant/give birth?

Miss Michele has a pretty good track record when it comes to predicting pregnancy… to Jennie Dee, right now, she answers, “Not yet, but soon.” Miss Michele can’t provide, in this reading, an exact month or time frame, but she can offer an if–> then / cause and effect statement. When the factors outlined in the reading fall into place, conception will occur.

The Magician in the past shows a new beginning… the decision being made to try to conceive. Jennie took stock in her health, made positive changes, and began tracking her cycles closely. She knows she is in charge of her own destiny, so she began preparing herself, her body, her life and relationship for a child.

The near future shows more preparation in the Ace of Rods. This also shows fertility and virility. Jennie hasn’t conceived yet, but it’s not for lack of trying. She and her partner, however, are taking this in stride, keeping the magic and passion in their relationship, and not looking at baby-making as a “chore.”

Factors Jennie may not be seeing, or might be hidden, are shown in the Page of Swords. There may have been a few false alarms, perhaps even a chemical pregnancy. The baby will come when Jennie least expects it. There are still some delays, however. They may even come in the form of minor physical issues.

As time goes on, the situation will get more frustrating. Jennie will begin to worry. This is shown in the Nine of Cups, the Tarot’s spiritual guidance. The more you worry and stress, the less likely you will be to conceive. Certainly, get everything checked out to make sure you’re in good health, but the prognosis is good. Stop worrying and it will happen.

The Final Outcome is shown in the King of Rods. While not a card of fertility that makes Miss Michele say Jennie will get pregnant “very, very soon,” all the factors are in place that it will happen, and it won’t take “forever.” Jennie will hit that low spot with her health, worries, stress… and just when she gets over that bump and relaxes, that’s when it will happen. As the King of Rods showcases Jennie’s partner’s personality, it’s likely that the more Jennie stresses, the less open he will be to pregnancy. He likes surprises, and he may very well be telling Jennie to relax, because it will happen. He will keep the romance and spontaneity alive. Relax and enjoy the entire process, because it will happen soon enough!

Thank you, Jennie, for giving us the opportunity to read for you and for your donation to Support a Miracle.

For the month of September, all proceeds go to benefit Mysti and Simon Gabriel, a preemie born at 24 weeks gestation. (In fact, Miss Michele predicted Simon’s month of conception in a 13-card, one-year spread!)
