Question 10 for your Tarot Reader

Posted on

Is There Anything You Won’t Predict in a Reading?

I prefer not to deal in predictions. I think in terms of possibilities, taking the advice and information that is in the reading to help you to understand what tools you have around you (and I am not referring to potential partners here). You will be able to see the likely outcome for the path you are currently on, as well as multiple points where you can adjust your course.

 

There is often very little to be gained from ‘knowing’ things in advance, as nothing stands still and in asking for predictions you are in effect, handing your power over and abnegating your birthright to create your own magnificent life. The truth is that there is no time other than this present moment, so I will continue to bring you back to the present moment.

 

I designed my Four Energies spread to provide a more useful alternative to prediction.

For example, rather than read on the question: Will I meet my soul mate and when, rather than tell you that yes you will meet your soulmate and on the Winter Solstice, I would much prefer to use the four energies spread and put you in the centre. The centre card represents your current energy, those above, what assists and hinders your quest to find a healthy relationship, those below what is going on at a subconscious level with your quest. This way you have tons of information to work with.

 

While on the topic of exclusions, I do not answer physical health related questions for the very good reason that I am not trained to do so and it is a boundary cross. I will again look at the energy surrounding you and give suggestions as they present themselves through the cards. The medical profession is trained to answer specific health related questions.

The other exclusion is an ethical one. Please avoid questions for Tarot that want information on a third party with whom you are not in a close relationship, because you are in effect asking me to energetically act in a way that is perilously close to going through someone’s phone and we all know how THAT pans out!

We do not operate as islands however.  One of the areas I seem to have the most questions about is, of course, relationships and especially from those seeking to differentiate a true relationship from an entanglement. I had to consider this issue for some time to arrive at the place where I was sure of  position on this, before including the Relationship Spread in my list of readings. I will therefore look at your relationship questions on these conditions: that you understand that any information the cards may bring up comes from your own knowing, and that while the combination of your energies with this other person create the third ‘person’ in this reading, which is the relationship itself, you are and remain two autonomous beings. When interpreting this reading, you will recognise that it is nothing new to you, it is just placed where you can see it.

This is part of the ‘Untangle’ package also, designed particularly for those who find themselves lost within relationships.

A reading will be beneficial when you frame your question in the first person. You are the one seeking guidance. It is therefore, you that I concentrate on.

Question 9 for your Tarot Reader

Posted on

Do you read for free or for a fee?

There are two, probably more, Universal Laws at play here: The law of Reciprocity and The Law of compensation, or Cause and Effect.

There are as many opinions about this topic as there are practitioners.

It took some time for me to be sure what was authentic for me and my chosen path.

I have chosen to do all the work I do from here on in, either face to face or by distance on a donation basis only. I experimented with this for a few weeks before I made my final decision. It was very interesting to watch events unfold; a veritable stream of gifts came my way in exchange for my readings and Reiki sessions. Some were in cash form but others came as flowers, cakes, books, a battery pack charger for my phone…the list goes on and I was humbled and liberated

For those who understand the above Laws, you will understand why I make this choice.

Both laws are based on love.

The fundamentals of the Law of Reciprocity  and the Law of Cause and Effect  and Compensation, is that something… some event, condition or circumstance is received back at all times without fail based on what it is that is given.

It is a constant source of enjoyment to be now free to offer my services and to be free of the capitalist paradigm.

This is in no way to say that it is wrong to charge a fee. An exchange of energy keeps both parties happy and free. This is purely a personal choice for me. I know that I can never outgive the Universe. But it sure is fun to try.

Question 6 for your Tarot Reader

Posted on

Is the Message in the Cards, or in your Head?

This is a valid question. As the world stage is flooded with new tarot decks, as many decks as there are coffee shops in Melbourne, I understand why you would ask this.

In more traditional decks, the cards are full of symbolism, astrological references, numerological references, the Kabbalah, all sorts of esoteric systems.

The modern approach is to read ‘intuitively’ like a sort of art appreciation course where truth is in the interpretation of the beholder, a form of narrative story telling that speaks directly to the subconscious of the person for whom you are reading.

This releases the constraints on intuition for sure, yet is can be a shallow experience if this is all the reader does.

The cards most definitely do contain the message. I have been astounded by their ability to accurately identify the situations, and then go on to provide insightful advice). However, they would lie dormant and silent if there was not an interpreter present.

That is where the ‘in my head’ part of the question comes in. I act as the interpreter, as I know the language they are speaking. I have learned it patiently over time, so it is ‘in my head’ in the sense of acquired knowledge. It is also ‘in my head’ in the sense that there is no one meaning for any one card and they will give their message by the connections, placement, whether reversed or upright; they have many ways to communicate and this is where intuition truly kicks in.

The connection I make to Spirit and to you is one that allows information that on a human level I could not possibly know, to come through to you and I know when this is happening because I receive confirmation in my physical body (often in the form of arm hairs standing on end) and in my Spirit, with a calm YES. It always resonates as truth with the person for whom I am reading which is a third confirmation that Truth is coming through.

So in summary: the answer is both 🙂

Question 7 for your Tarot Reader

Posted on

7.  Are you a priest or a fortune teller?

That is a complex question and I don’t use either terms to describe myself.

A priest is usually a go between, a mediator, so in that regard, yes, it would be understandable to think of me in that way. Like a priest, I have studied for many years to reach the level of understanding I now have. However, my intention is more to hook you back up with your own Higher Self and your own intuitive knowing, than to remain the go between.  I would describe myself as more a tour guide I think; a local who knows the territory and is a good map reader 🙂

Am I a fortune teller?

Sure, I can look at the cards and let you know what is ahead on your current trajectory but that is all. The future changes with every decision you make, narrowing down a million possibilities with each choice you make along the way.
