Current Influences

Page of Wands

A vital indicator, the Page suggests good news coming to you from or about a youthful individual. If the card is describing you, personally, it indicates you possess boundless energy, deep loyalty, and a youthful love of learning. It may also point towards a new project you will soon be undertaking.

Key interpretations:

  • Adventurous
  • Ambitious
  • Energetic and Active
  • New beginnings
  • Skilled

In this position, the card reveals:

A young person, brimming with good intention and carrying good news will enter your life. Their tidings likely concern something creative or work-related.

Obstacles

The Moon

Something in your life is not what it seems. Perhaps a misunderstanding on your part, or a truth you cannot admit to yourself. It may also indicate something important being kept from you by another. This may be a source of worry or depression in your life, and the Moon is a strong indicator that you must rely on your intuition to see through the deceit.

Key interpretations:

  • Be careful
  • Caution
  • Confusion
  • Delusion
  • Risk

In this position, the card reveals:

You are about to begin a creative project, or, in another interpretation, you may have a relationship issue that demands resolution.

Past Foundations

The Lovers

Your first instinct will most likely be to associate this card as representing love, but, much like love, it is not quite that simple. Not only does love come in many forms, but the Lovers may indicate important or difficult choices ahead in your life. This is bad, in that the choices it signals are generally mutually exclusive, paths to two very different futures, but also good, in that it confirms that at least one of those paths will take you to a good place. As such, if you happen to find it in your spread, you should consider it carefully, but not fear it. It tells a story of difficult choices, likely painful, but that the correct decision and a positive outcome are within your grasp.

Key interpretations:

  • Attachment or combination
  • Conflicting choices
  • Partners
  • Relationships
  • Union

In this position, the card reveals:

Your efforts to become more in tune with yourself will bring you greater success in relationships with others.

Past Events

Page of Cups

The Page of Cups, if it refers to you in your spread, suggests an introspective nature, inclined towards art, and possessing a kind heart. You may let credit you deserve pass you by out of shyness. The card may also be indicative of someone, likely overlooked, in your own life who is in a position to aid you in pursuit of a specific goal. Although somewhat dependent on its position in your spread, the Page is generally the bearer of good news.

Key interpretations:

  • Announcement
  • Birth
  • Creative ideas
  • Good news
  • Message

In this position, the card reveals:

You know well the obstacles in your life, and you will see them falling. Some have already done so, though you may not have noticed.

Goals and Destiny

Ace of Pentacles

Aces always represent a new beginning in some form, and the Ace of Pentacles suggests a strong positive one for you. Your life is about to enter a very productive period, or at least a period which will see your work rewarded in good measure to the level of work you are willing to perform. This period will also see most of your relationships on stable ground, and, despite the hard work you may be doing, you will be very content with your situation.

Key interpretations:

  • Emotional stability
  • Financial gain
  • Luck
  • Recognition
  • Success

In this position, the card reveals:

At the end of your road there is wealth and comfort.

Future

Page of Swords

Your personality may trend towards the stubborn and opinionated, if the Page represents you in the spread, but it is also indicative of strong analytical skills and an energetic nature. You have a predilection towards identifying the core of issues and accurately assessing your own stance on them. This will allow you to become an excellent negotiator. If the card refers to a situation, prepare yourself to make many important decisions quickly. Trust in your reason and your judgment to navigate these difficulties.

Key interpretations:

  • Aggressive
  • Challenging
  • Change
  • Intelligent
  • Vigilant

In this position, the card reveals:

You may find yourself irritable, but if you are honest with yourself, you will see that it stems from deep desire for change.

The Querant (you)

Seven of Wands

You almost certainly have great reserves of courage, and the perseverance to see yourself through difficult times. You may not be aware you possess these qualities, but you will find yourself needing them soon. Expect conflicts, possibly small, but more likely significant. It is not certain where they will arise, but there is no doubt you possess the ability to overcome your adversaries.

Key interpretations:

  • Coping and Resistance
  • Courage
  • Long-term successes
  • Perseverance
  • Strength

In this position, the card reveals:

You undervalue your own talents and your ambitions suffer for it.

Friends and Family

Eight of Cups

The Eight of Cups suggests that there is stability and security in your life, but at a personal cost. You are probably unfulfilled by your current life. Depending on the rest of your spread, it may be a strong push for you to move on, and find the courage to strike out in a new direction. You will have to look closely at your work, your relationship, and your own beliefs to identify the source of your dissatisfaction, and then decide if you are willing to set aside some of your life's stability in order to find happiness.

Key interpretations:

  • Abandonment
  • Avoiding
  • Changes in lifestyle
  • Leaving / Going
  • Personal development

In this position, the card reveals:

A new love interest will enter your life.

Hopes, Fears, and Ideals

King of Cups

The King of Cups is the worldly and calm projection of authority. To find him in your spread is most likely a reference to someone else who will aid you in achieving your goals. This person may seem unconcerned, even distant, but their motivations are pure. Whatever advice they give will be important to you and should be considered in your own deliberations. If it does refer to you personally, it shows an inner strength and tightly disciplined control of emotions.

Key interpretations:

  • Compassionate
  • Good advice / Helpful
  • Integrity
  • Mature, Authoritative Man
  • Spouse

In this position, the card reveals:

You will find the door to new opportunity opened for you by an intelligent professional.

The Final Outcome

Six of Wands

Your past efforts are about to pay dividends if you find the Six of Wands in your spread. Whether in the form of recognition for your past work or material reward, some level of success is in your future. If you are waiting for some particular news, this card is most likely a signal of good news. However, it is also gentle reminder that magnanimity and grace should accompany your success. To avoid losing friends and inviting retributions, do not let the good fortune go to your head.

Key interpretations:

  • Completion
  • Good news
  • Reward and Recognition
  • Success
  • Triumph

In this position, the card reveals:

Trials and tribulation, hardships and pain, challenges and defeat. These words all describe moments on the road ahead of you, but one word describes its end: Triumph.
