Celtic Cross

The Temperance card often comes up in a reading when you need to learn or understand the concept of all things in moderation. It begs the question: In what ways are you over extending yourself or being too rigid? Like most cards in the Rider Waite deck, this card is rich in symbolism. Temperance by its very meaning is a bending of ones will to direction of the almighty. The card depicts this through multiple layers of symbolism.

When the Three of Swords is present in your reading you are either experiencing or entering into a transit of difficulties in relation with the heart. There is a level of quarreling or a general upheaval present in your experience at this time. This is a challenging time of your life.

If you have received the Nine of Wands in your reading you will be receiving a strength of vision that you never thought was possible in the past. You are making the right choices for yourself. You have gained much knowledge from what you have been through and now you must establish a certain level of mastery. As a part of this mastery over your reality, you must hear what others have to say so that you can gain multiple perspectives which will help you make better decisions, choose better roads to cross and will teach you a tremendous amount about yourself.

The Page of Cups shows up in your reading to represent either yourself and the role you have in the reading or someone else and the role they are playing. You are ruled by the desire to transform. Usually a youth or a girl under eighteen or even a young person who is unmarried with light brown hair or hazel eyes.

The Six of Cups is a pleasant little card that can indicate that there are a lot of positive energies surrounding you at this time… so long as they are balanced. Right now your main focus needs to be on the simple approaches and avoid making anything too complicated or overly ornate so that you don’t miss your goal or deadline. This card represents nostalgia and ideal times of your life.

The Strength card exemplifies the need for order and discipline in your life at this time. Try to think about the ways in which you are allowing yourself too much excess whether it is drinking, spending, eating, or anything else. Avenues of your life that you are exerting too much energy into right now are going to be exaggerated in your reading in order, which hopefully will bring attention to them and to get you back to a point of balance. Many people when they get this card will be in denial and state that they aren’t engaging in any healthy activities that could cause them any harm.

When the Three of Cups has a central focus in your reading it is a sign that you are being blessed by a season of success and abundance, for which you can achieve much. This card is a celebratory one. There is no work, only play. Now you have done what you needed to get by and you have some time to relax.

If you have received the Knight of Swords in your reading, then there are many assertive energies that are encircling you at this time. This card tends to be symboli9c of the ‘Knight in Shining Armor,’ rushing in to save the ‘Damsel in Distress.’ This is because there is no one better to come in and rescue you after a time of trouble, then a Knight. He will defend you to the ends of the Earth if necessary.

The Fool is the card of wild abandon and new beginnings. The Fool is often depicted as a young person, with knapsack in hand who is going places. And what will be the final destination? No one knows, but it does not matter.

The King of Cups is like the King of Cool. He is a great card in a reading when you are seeking ways to express yourself emotionally or having to accept aspects (or people) in your life that you would rather not.
