The Page Of Swords Tarot Card Meaning

You are starting over again after the desolation of the Ten of Swords caused you to hit rock bottom.

All movement in the direction of improvement is positive for you, but you are finding that you are feeling almost paranoid about the moves forward that you are making because you are afraid of creating the same situation again. It is understandable to have this kind of fear, but rest assured the Page of Swords will help guide you through this new existence. You are making positive changes in your life at this time, and that can only ever bring great rewards.

You are a mentally assertive person, alert, impressionable as well as curious, and investigative. You are ruled at this point in your life by the drive for transformation. You are being blessed by an insightful and highly proactive state of being that is mentally playful which is what you need to experience after spending so much time being so sad and so serious. You have moved passed all of that frustration and are beginning the next phase having learned valuable lessons.

The image of the page of swords is depicted in the rider wait deck as a younger person or maiden wielding a sword with both hands while trudging quickly over what appears to be rough terrain. The flight of the flock of birds behind the young page along with the wild clouds symbolizes the feeling that trouble is brewing, or the fear that it is. This card can also be chosen for a girl or a younger person with brown hair and brown eyes.

There are activities happening in your life that are causing you to be worried. Try to make sure that you are clear with what you are committing to and that you put your words into action. Try to bring in only new information into your world because if you try to stay attached to what you knew when you were participating in unhealthy habits you may find that you are blocking new understanding. You learn from everything at this time, and so you should enjoy the amount of time that you spend investigating the possibilities. Trusting your mind, find a way to focus on all of the fantastical and beautiful goals and dreams that you previously felt were impossible to achieve.

It is also of key importance that you be receptive to other people’s moods, so that you will know when you are being overly defensive. You may not appreciate when plans are delayed, and at this time you might even receive news that is disappointing, news that does not actively feel like it is moving you in the direction you want to go, but at this time you must rise above it and learn to be patient with yourself and your progress.

The Five Of Pentacles Tarot Meaning

The Five of Pentacles can be a very worrisome card when appearing in a reading as it shows that there is a loss, usually in financial matters.

By simply looking at the Five of Pentacles you can tell that the card is one of loss and struggle. Two people, often interpreted as a parent and child, huddle closely while heading into the cold and snow. They appear to be outside of a church with five pentacle coins appearing in the stained glass window. Many people will focus on the negative card and allow an overwhelming emotional response to miss the obvious solution at hand. The church is right there, usually a safe haven for the poor or needy, yet the two individuals are still outside in the cold.

While the card does have definite negative connotations, there is also an offer of hope within the card itself. The Five of Pentacles tells you to remember that you simply need to open the door and ask for help in order to get back on your feet.

However, if you are in the midst of conflict in your own life do not ignore the help that is available to you. It is likely that you may have to start over in all or some aspects of your life. Remember that through loss sometimes there are aspects of our lives that need to be purged. Foundations that were poor to begin will no longer hold you up. Relationships that are failing will leave you alone. You don’t have to be excited about the loss that you have experienced or are experiencing. That doesn’t mean that the loss is all bad either. Think of now as a way to focus on the basic needs for your existence and be sure that they are being met.

Ponder how you are really feeling about your relationship in a logical way. Try to separate yourself from the raw emotions relating to recent strife in your relationship and focus on the true root of the problem. Often you will not find that the relationship itself is not the problem but rather other areas, particularly work or money, are causing a strain that is bleeding into your relationship.

Usually, there is a cycle of money issues surrounding this card.

If you do not correct your mistakes that first caused the financial strain then you will continue with the same loss pattern until you adopt healthier spending habits or more secure income sources. Ponder ways in which you can completely alter you path. Consider perhaps seeking out a new job, implementing new savings plans, or cutting back spending where you can on a long-term basis. The card calls not for a temporary solution. Now is a good time to revamp both the way you think about money and the way you save.
