The High Priestess

My Intuitive Interpretation

The High Priestess, for me, is about intuition.  It's about gut instincts.  It's about trusting the messages that come to you in whatever form they get to you.  I have been working on my High Priestess gifts for years, but still, I often do not trust the messages that I get, particularly when they are about me.  Ideas or random thoughts often pop into my head.  When they are about others, I pay attention.  When they are about me, I tend to ignore them.  I have lots of ideas and random thoughts today.  The High Priestess is telling me:  Listen.


What Dictionary of Tarot Says

• Case:  Memory, the subconscious, potential
• Crowley:  Pure, exalted and gracious influence, change, fluctuation
• Douglas:  Inspiration, revelation, divination, intuition.  Emotional instability or enslavement
• Gray:  Sensuality
• Waite:  Secrets, mystery, the future as yet unrevealed.  Silence, wisdome, passion, moral or physical ardour
• Suggested:  Teacher in perhaps aan occult sense.  A guide.

My Interpretation for Today

It should be noted that I consider the number 2 to be my favorite number and, indeed, this is one of my favorite cards.  I have been working very hard to continue to develop my intuitions and learning to trust what comes to me.  Of course, I use the Tarot to guide me.  One of the meanings of this card refers to sensuality and I have been enjoying lots of attention lately.  I had repressed this for many years and once I changed my attitude toward myself, things started happening for me.  This, I do believe, was definitely influenced by the High Priestess.  I do know my capacity for love now.  It's now just a matter of trusting my intuition to guide me.

Queen of Pentacles

My Intuitive Interpretation

Another Court Card...the Queen of Pentacles could represent an actual person, but I tend to read them as archetypes of the card.  Pentacles typically represent stability, responsibility, money.  Queens tend to be be feminine (imagine that), and geared toward making a good home environment.  At this juncture in my life, I hope it's pointing to better days financially.  I could use that at this time.


What Dictionary of Tarot Says

• Case:  Generous, intelligent, charming
• Crowley:  Passivity, usually in its highest aspect. Ambitious in useful directions, kindness, greatness of heart, strong in intuition, domesticated, lustful
• Golden Dawn:  Impetuous, kind, timid, charming, kind-hearted, melancholy, truthful
• Waite:  Greatness of soul, generousity, security

Psychic Revelation

My Interpretation for Today


I think I need to amend my intuitive interpretation.  Perhaps it is pointing to better days financially, but it could just as easily be a card describing me at this moment in time.  I am very generous and have a hard time saying no.  It's just a question of who's asking and what they're asking for...

Blog Notes

I've done a little maintenance on my blog this morning.  As I figure out more and more how this interface works, I'm developing a more standardized format.

I published the poll results from last week.  Feel free to comment on the results.  I also added a new poll for this week.  I hope you will vote.

I also added a new "page", which is an introduction to my blog, as well as a little story about how I became a Tarot card reader.  You can get to that near the bottom of the right side, right above my "About Me" section.

I'd also like to know what happens when you click on the ads.  If you can, please click on the ads throughout the week.  I am not allowed to, so your help with this would be great.  Specifically, I want to know what kind of revenue these clicks generate.

I've been developing this blog because I'd like to demonstrate a blog's usefulness as well as social networking sites (like Facebook) for small businesses.  I'm toying with the idea of starting my own small business for helping companies capitalize on the these tools.  Any help or suggestions you can give me are greatly appreciated.

I hope you have a really great week!

Justice

My Intuitive Interpretation

For me, Justice, like its name implies, is  all about getting what you deserve, even if it's not want you want.  It's about trying to keep balance the areas in your life.  It's about doing what's fair and what's just.  Sometimes it's about tipping the scales a little bit when needed.  It's about getting to the truth.


What Dictionary of Tarot Says

• Case:  To teach or instruct, karma, faithful intelligence
• Christian:  Absolute justice, attraction and repulsion
• Douglas:  Conscience reminding the conscious mind of the existence of the unconscious, vindication of truth
• Gray:  Equilibrium through the love of the Great Mother, Mercy advised and excessive severity contraindicated
• Grimaud: Rehabilitation, honesty, justice performed
• Huson:  Advice to weight a situation carefully
• Kahn:  Cosmic law, karma

Psychic Revelation
Justice


My Interpretation for Today

Everything happens for a reason and I probably preach this more than anyone.  People come into our lives for a reason (and leave, as well).  Experiences happen for a reason.  I think this card appeared to me today because I have been feeling that I have not, lately, been getting what I deserve (or at least what I think I deserve) and this is in several areas of my life.  I must continue to remember that timing is everything and while I have my own time zone, the universe does not always work on it.  The job that I thought I wanted which didn't come left my time free for something else.  The love that I thought I deserved but which didn't happen leaves me free for the one that will truly appreciate me.  I am impatient.  I must learn that impatience gets me nowhere.

7 of Swords

My Intuitive Interpretation

The 7 of Swords, for me, has always been about trying to get away with something...of being sneaky about it and being good at being sneaky about it. At its core, it's about manipulation of some sort. I know exactly what this is about today, as my mind has been on one topic and one topic alone. Yes, I am trying to be sneaky and to do a bit of manipulation. Yes, I know it's not going to work, but nonetheless, it's been on my mind all day.

What Dictionary of Tarot Says

• Case: Unstable effort, uncertainty, partial success
• Douglas: Powerful opposition. Courage, perseverance, prudence and possibly cunning are required.
• Gray: Foolish attempt at some kind of theft, arguments, spying, incomplete success.
• Kaplan: New schemes, desires on the verge of fulfillment, attempts or endeavors.
• Mathers: Hope, confidence, desire, attempt, wish.
• Waite: Design, attempt, wish, hope, confidence, a plan that may fail, annoyance.
• Suggested:  Perfect wisdom, maturity, control of power, control of emotions, control of intuition and control of intelligence summarized.

Psychic Revelation
7 of Swords


My Interpretation for Today

The advice of this card is obviously for me to stop trying to manipulate the situation and this is going to be difficult for me because I like to get what I want. Since everything points to actually NOT getting my way, perhaps I simply need to just let things ride out as they will and see what happens. Let's hope I can do that.

Page of Swords

My Intuitive Interpretation

Another messenger card...I've been getting messages from everywhere lately. The Page of Swords could be bringing a message that I don't particularly want to hear or something that has been particularly bugging me. My problem is I rarely listen to the Pages, believing that I am stronger than they are. Perhaps this card shows up today to remind me that I don't know everything and I should listen to messages, even subtle ones.

  

What Dictionary of Tarot Says

• Case: Vigilant, acute, subtle
• Golden Dawn: Wisdom, strength, acuteness, subtleties in material things, grace, dexterity
• Gray: Message or spying, impostors, frivolity or cunning, watch out for the unforeseen
• Papus: An enemy, bad news, delay
• Waite: Authority, overseeing, spying, vigilance
• Suggested: Messages requiring thought, disturbing or exciting news

Psychic Revelation
Page of Swords

My Interpretation for Today

I'm not entirely sure what message the Page of Swords will bring me today, but I do resolve to listen to it. Swords are not particularly kind to me, but sometimes kindness is not what is needed. The Dictionary of Tarot made mention of policemen, and as many of you know, there is one in my life right now and he has been a source of much thought, particularly as we are redefining our relationship. Perhaps I need to pay attention to the messages...
