Tarot Reading

My inclination is to describe this spread as being about intimacy and connection. On the left is connection with history and the present. On the right is connection with the other and the self.

The high priestess at the center is telling you what the universe wants you to focus on within these relationships. She wants you to look into the unseen, the shadows, the mysterious parts that tend to evade you understanding.

Starting on the bottom right we have your connection to romance and the other. Here is the page of cups, reversed. It’s a new beginning of exploration and understanding of the emotions. Its playful and receptive. But here it is not directed out at engaging and experiencing the other in romance, it is primarily offering a reflection of the self.

The card above, representing relationship to self, we have the sun. This typically shows clear skies and clear vision but it is also reversed, leaving the vision more clouded. There is confusion or insecurity when looking at the self directly. There isn’t self delusion or deceit per say, but a struggle to focus here directly. The inclination seems stronger to look at the other. So here is an opportunity to see who you are by what you project. And you can learn to interpret what you see in the other as understandings of the self.

On the left side we look at past and present place. On the bottom left, relationship to place, stands judgement. You have been waiting for an answer and a transformation has arrived but you struggle to accept or see it, you may not be ready for it. Time needs to be taken to integrate expectations with what is being offered, what judgements are you putting on your environment that is blocking acceptance of this opportunity to transform your relationship to place.

And above it we have the moon, representing relationship to the ancestors. Here the moon is able to illuminate the shadows, the mysteries. There is an acceptance of the shadow self when seen from this angle of lineage and ancestry. It also speaks to receptivity, having enough space and stillness within self that you can hear the story being shared.
