3 Card Tarot Reading

The Chariot Tarot Card Meaning

In all tarot decks I own this is a card is about movement. My card above indicates movement on the chariot pulled by the two horses. It is about what is coming next and action in your life. When this appears in my readings it means that now is an excellent time in your life to consider what you can do to cut back. 

Rather than thinking of your journey as one vacation, the chariot usually indicates something a tad more active, a journey of the spiritual sense or even one for work and finance. Whatever struggle you are going through in your life right now, do not worry that it is going to be all for nothing. The Chariot assures you that you are definitely going places!

This is a card of exploration and expansion that guides you on a journey that you are about to take or one that you may possibly be started on already. It is not an easy ride as a chariot is not a modern vehicle of comfort. It is a time to think about getting back to the basics, lessening your load, and simplifying your life before you engage on the road ahead. 

The Chariot has symbolism present is often interpreted as balancing out opposite forces. There is much duality in the colors of the card which state that you need to make sure that you are rationing out your efforts at this time. Pulling ahead too quickly will fatigue you and you will become too tired to complete your task. Approaching your challenges with a slow or delayed speed will cause you to not reach your intended destination.

Also depicted in the card is the rider on top of an enclosed carriage. We can only view the top half of the rider, and he is ready for battle. He is prepared for challenges that lie ahead. The colors are rich in symbolism reflecting thought and emotion. While this is a card of action, often that action is an internal struggle. It is either a battle of wills or a personal dragon that must be slayed. Whatever it is that you are facing right now, the Chariot says, “Don’t stop. Don’t give up.”

As you persevere and move forward on your path you will engage in many obstacles. These hurdles that you encounter are ones that you will learn from. You are about to receive a life lesson of sorts and while you may feel that you are going through a rough patch understand that it is through experience that we all learn.

The Chariot in Love

Often a card that comes up after a relationship has ended or during an exceptionally difficult time, the Chariot reminds you that this too shall pass. Things are being set in motion regarding matters of the heart and what you feel right now is only a temporary hurdle. You need to strengthen your resolve and protect your emotions. You are likely to find that you either want to run from your relationship or that you already feel alone.

The Chariot as Love Reconciliation

Love is a journey towards our destiny. Pause because I want to say this, this card promises reconciliation in its chariot - a cycle of love and redemption. Those wheels of fire lead us forward in learning that understanding leads to reconciliation with one another. The other individual is saying, "I see you and I understand." It is a never ending journey of becoming more awake and purposeful in this never ending chorus of love and conflict. We must run to our future together with open hearts for the world to stand in oneness and harmony.

The Chariot As Feelings

For some people it means a struggle between the mind and some shadow side of life. A cancer card, the Chariot means "moving on" The two horses also are pulling in two directions which also means indecision. But one person is still undecided. But there's one thing - the reins are in one person's hand. This card may mean moving on and working on someone else. I fear it is a bad card for love.

The Chariot in Health

In Health the Chariot says that you have a long road ahead of you. Often it can represent health issues of the feet and issues with diabetes or digestion. Overall health shows that you are strong enough for a journey ahead and while there can be standard health issues associated with the card, rarely is it a sign of a deeper concern. The Chariot is an omen of vitality and youth.

The Chariot in Work, Money, Business, Career, and Wealth

In the way of work, most often the Chariot is seen when one is seeking a change in a job either due to unemployment or stagnation of a current career. It signifies that it is a great time to explore options of expansion and promotion. You also may find when this card is present that work will require unexpected travel that will also come with prestige and increased revenue. Strictly financially speaking, the Chariot says you need to hold on to your money and it is a time of saving. While the work front may be offering more opportunities, do not forget that this is a card talking about a journey beginning. There are likely unexpected expenses coming your way that you need to be prepared for.

The Chariot As A person

As a person the Chariot to me, always represents the qualities of great power, independence and will power at its very best. This card as a person shows us we are going to evolve, learn how to use spiritual energy, how our choices can build momentum - how to twist into a path of strength, determination and finally progress. The Chariot is more than a card: It's a person! it's a reminder of strength and happiness found in just following your own path.

The Chariot In the Past Position

To draw this card in the past means that a period of crazy is over. It often means in my readings stress is coming to an end. That got you where you are now. The past Chariot is basically proof that things have stopped being so demanding. Just proof you never gave up when it got tough. 

The Chariot In The Present Position

You've done the hard bit already. So that is what that card is telling you. That got you where you are now, something in your past, whether it was a decision or a push, that was it. You may not even realize how far you came because you were moving too quickly recently. In my view, the past Chariot is basically proof. Just proof you never gave up when it got tough. And hey - whatever it is that you have to face right now, you already proved you are able to handle it. You have done it before, you just forgot. Things right now may seem sped up and that is my honest reading of the present chariot position.

The Chariot In The Future Position

Drawing this card for the future in my readings mean real action and movement. The Chariot in the future position always means it is time. It could be a trip, a new chapter, a situation which picks you up and takes you somewhere you have not been before. Not that you have to have everything worked out yet. The card isn't telling you to stop everything . For me, it means that your foundation is laid - even if it does not feel like it now. Get ready to move!

The Chariot As Friendship Or Family

It's a good sign when the Chariot shows up in a family or friendship reading. That means whatever this group has gone through together maybe even arguments, rough patches, messy moments but in my view... nothing has broken the bond. You move together, not necessarily at the same speed, not necessarily in complete agreement (as we all have family conflict at some stage), but you're going in the same direction and no one gets left behind. That is more rare than people think.
 

The Chariot Yes or No

The Chariot “Yes or No” in my view is a “maybe” this is because it’s sitting between two opposites. The Chariot is about movement and determination but it also has that pulling of two forces. So, in my readings I try to read both situations or outcomes for the client. There is still something to decide or act on before the answer is clear. If you have a question or two to weigh in on, this card is telling you to pick a lanes.

The Chariot in the Reversed Position

The Chariot in the reversed position is showing that what you are doing in your life right is as about as effective as trying to make a horse run backwards. You need to take a look at your life and see in what ways you are trying to move mountains when you should be going around them and what aspects of your life are pulling you down. The movement of the Chariot card is still present but if you are fighting against it you are likely to find that resistance is futile. Life will continue to move forward with or without you. 

Love and Romance - The Chariot Reversed

Love and romance readings that draw the reversed Chariot can often feel like a carriage being pulled in two different directions: the ghosting, swiping left on Tinder, or becoming blocked by darkness. The Chariot reversed is a reminder that with love and romance we sometimes need for this to just be paused; just as the horses pulling the reins in my card, we at times turn away from our destination.

Family and Home - The Chariot Reversed

When the Chariot is reversed it can represent a lack of direction when it comes to family and home, which can be a difficult situation to face. Knowing what is important and understanding one's worth are keys to sorting out any conflict. A sense of security and belonging can help guide us while providing a foundation of strength, courage, and understanding. 

Work and Finances - The Chariot Reversed

The Chariot Reversed is a warning  about taking care of work. When I draw the Chariot reversed for such readings, it can mean ambition has taken us too far down the wrong path, normally away from values. I also think it encourages you to think about where things are heading. Are you going in the right direction? If not, make any necessary adjustments now before it’s too late. 

Health and Wellness - The Chariot Reversed

The chariot reversed is a reminder of how essential it is to nurture our physical and emotional wellbeing. It encourages us to slow down and take the time to really listen to yourself. The reversed Chariot's is saying please, just slow down, examine what's really getting you down. This is practical and not dramatic. 

Personal Spirituality - The Chariot Reversed

I think that if the Chariot reversed is in a spread then for you personally in terms of your spiritual life it is all about a growing spiritual awareness. It represents that first step, the key journey - the courage, the determination and the commitment required to achieve anything worthwhile. A moral compass allows us to proceed with courage.

In personal spirituality one is reminded of one's own inner voice reminding us of our purpose so that whatever life throws our way we are able to face each difficult problem head on.

In my view, the Chariot is a powerful card, and it can represent many things in a reading. Love, reconciliation, friendship, family - all of these are represented by the cats looking at the chariot in my tarot cards. Chariots can also represent strife or conflict, but I must admit that they can also be positive. The Chariot may represent some problems in one's life when reversed. 

The Ace is the core or primal representation of that energy.

If you are seeing the Ace of Wands in your reading then there is a good chance that you are experiencing a lot of momentum, passion, and power around one or all aspects of your life at this time. The Ace card brings positive energies with it including exuberance, energy, and motivation to get started on a project. Basically, it represents the seed of the fiery, passionate, energies in your life. These energies are typically favorable ones but unharnessed can be a bit much to handle.

The Wand is full of power and directs the energy where to go. Being that you are likely dealing with fiery energy in your life right now, it is a good time to start making plans for the future that require action or motivation on your part. With the surge of fire behind you take action and charge forth, completing aspects of your life that you have left unattended until now. Focus your energies on growth and renewal or being influential. Do not waste this energy as it does not come around all that often. It’s like a surge of energy being blasted into your life and can leave you feeling glorious or almost as if you can take on the world.

The Ace of Wands can also represent renewed creativity or innovation. Think outside the box for solutions or ideas that are not the norm. This is a great time to push yourself forward or challenge physical limits. Mentally speaking, your psyche is overcharged with optimism and eagerness. Think about ways in which you are stunted by routine and switch them up. Create opportunities for renewal and success by exercising your mind and body.

If you are finding that right now you are lacking motivation, you need to activate this power. Sometimes the Ace cards will show up to remind you what is needed in your life right now. With the wands card, it can indicate a need for passion, rejuvenation, motivation, and confidence. Consider areas of your life that you have felt that there is a lack and spend more time cultivating change. With the energy of the Ace of Wands card at your disposal right now, you can literally do anything!

The Ace of Wands in Love

The Ace of Wands in a love reading gives a sexy or sensual feel to your love life. It can represent a focus on primal urges, sexuality, and dominance. Even though all of these aspects can have negative sides to them, usually the ace represents that you have the energy to burn right now. It shows a true spark either in your current relationship or one that is going to be coming to you soon.

When asking the cards about someone specific in love the wands card will often represent a person with auburn, red, or medium colored hair. This person will be dynamic, active, and radiate confidence. The card also represents the beginnings of a romance that is very physical but sometimes lacking on more substantial levels. It is likely that the attraction in a new relationship will be based on appearances rather than things in common. When you find a relationship while the Ace of Wands is favoring you, be prepared that this may not be your true love but still a fun relationship while it lasts.

It can indicate a whirlwind relationship or one that is sexually charged. Try not to get too caught up in the details but rather allow yourself to be swept away with passion and abandon. This is a time to be experimental and try new things. Consider taking charge in a relationship right now or letting that special someone know that you are interested in them. Expect fireworks.

The Ace of Wands in Work and Wealth

The Ace of Wands in wealth is like planting a wildfire in the summer. Now is the time to take action and invest, look for a job, or make a large purchase. Anything done financially or regarding work right now is likely to have a lot of energy behind it motivating that aspect to growing exponentially. Creativity is also in abundance and if you focus your attention on finding new ways to, for example, market a product (or yourself for that matter) at work, you will find that your ideas are not only received well but that they will pan out for you. This is a great time to be networking and making connections in the workplace. Confidence is key for you to get noticed but be sure that you are not coming off as pompous. People are drawn to your power and potential at this time. Do not let it go to waste.

The Ace of Wands Yes Or No

The Ace of Wands upright is a Yes! Without a doubt. All Aces in tarot readings are generally positive. I always find that this tarot card can show up when things are just out of control. Think of it like feelings coming to the surface and it seems the answer will be a no - but it's not! Upright this is a passionate card and shows things will become , but reversed can indicate a no. If you asked the question yes/no and pulled an ace - then it would definitely be a yes.

The Ace of Wands Past

Drawing the Ace of Wands in a past position can indicate the need to move on in life. You may have encountered positive change. It can signify that you previously created something completely new. The Ace of Wands in the past is about control, passion, and happiness. An ace in the past can indicate that a new passionate adventure or love affair has started or the window of opportunity has opened. Think of this ace as a seed of possibility that has occurred in the past.

The Ace of Wands Present 

Drawing the Ace of Wands in the present position can indicate there is currently enthusiasm that has just been planted in life. It could be a love affair, passion, or even just a surge of optimism. This card indicates an opportunity for you to take now and make sure you do not miss it!

The Ace of Wands Future and Outcome

The Ace of Wands in the future position can indicate an anachronistic event. The ace is a positive card and full of passion and energy. It means that you need to take the stand and look forward to new possibilities that will excite you. This can mean you will have potential and that you can be creative alongside this. The card is drawing you to have personal power and go out there and succeed.

The Ace of Wands Feelings

The Ace of Wands is all about love and happiness and is a positive card to draw for “how someone feels about you.” This card shows real enthusiasm for others and passion too. The ace is like a seed in a relationship. This card can mean that you have caught someone’s eye and you are both attracted to another.

The Ace of Wands in Health

With the Ace of Wands in your health reading, you are blessed indeed. This card is one of vitality, strength, and healing. The energy of the Ace of Wands burns away illness and disease and gives you added energy. It is a great time to focus on fitness and anything to do with being more motivated for healthy changes. Try implementing a health plan, new diet, or quitting bad habits like smoking. Any positive or healthy plan that you put forth at this time is going to have great rewards and benefit for you.

The Ace of Wands Advice

When you get the ace of wands in an advice reading it can mean a serious “call to action.” The call to action requires that you first make a decision then it is time to commit yourself. The Ace here urges one to go ahead with new possibilities and opportunities. There is also a focus on personal growth. Drawing the Ace of Wands in the advice position can mean you need to command attention and respect. It is important to listen to people around you and realize there is a “call” to action in going forward. all the shots going forward. The advice here is to have authority, make sure you sway others to your way of thinking. Maybe you need to think about taking a different approach to something new. Being a pioneer for example.

The Ace of Wands Love Reconciliation

This is a great card to draw for love reconciliation. The card can represent being flexible about opening up to a new type of relationship with the man or woman. As this is a “yes” and “love” card it can mean that you will face a new chapter with this person and are likely to get back together, as long as you are both flexible.

The Ace of Wands Love Friendship

The Ace of Wands gives one a super enthusiastic “yes!” and this means that you may have tried to initiate a friendship. There is something about the approaches and attention of others and this is a positive sign for being close to someone. Try to resist the temptation to tell all your friends about your life, instead ask friendly-type questions. If you have been thinking of starting a friendship with someone this is a great card to draw.

The Ace Of Wands Reversed

Because the Ace of Wands is a card about excess power, indulgence, and has a sexual tone, when it is in the reversed position it can often indicate these aspects in your life are present but out of balance. Whereas when the Ace of Wands is upright the power is directed and has focus, in the reversed position the power pours out and can affect multiple areas of your life. Often it will indicate being out of control or a lack of balance in a relationship. You may feel that you are caught in a power struggle and feel a lot of resistance around you. Creativity is present but again, not focused. In times where the Ace of Wands reversed it is time to reign yourself in and center yourself. Allow your focus in work or finances to settle and avoid stretching yourself too thin.

The Ace of Wands Reversed - Love and Romance

The Ace of Wands reversed for questions on love and romance can indicate that you are having too much of a good thing. For feelings, the Ace of Wands reversed can mean that an opportunity is fizzling out.  Generally, it means that someone (in the relationship) has already decided on the course of action they wish to follow. As the upright signifies love, romance, and happiness in the reversed position the ace of wands can suggest something is being blocked, such as impotence or flat libido. It can simply mean that the “passion” in a relationship has diminished in time.

This can also signify that you need to turn your sexual energy inside yourself and work on yourself and internal constraints. If you have drawn this card based on somebody’s feelings for you, it can indicate that they are losing interest or perhaps suffering from some type of acute depression. The most important element of this card is if we reverse the Ace of Wands, we can still see the roots of the tree so there is still hope that in love someone may not let you down. At times I’ve drawn this card when self-growth is needed in a relationship. Very occasionally the ace of wands reversed can represent starting something new. And in this case a new relationship,  but there are going to be struggles , and the opportunity may not manifest itself. Alternatively, this card can appear when you are frustrated about a love affair. Perhaps you simply lack the energy to get the love that you need or feel deflation.

The Ace of Wands Reversed - Family and Home

In the family and home spread the Ace of Wands reversed can indicate feeling powerless. It can mean someone has let you down and is best to review and consider your plans or goals for the future. The good news is that in the reverse position the route appears in the sky, therefore there may be some new expectations. In the reverse position, it can also represent an unproductive relationship or trouble with somebody who is rather cruel.

The Ace of Wands Reversed - Work and Finances

In terms of career, the Ace of Wands reversed emphasizes the need for inner strength and power. This is to overcome rejection or mixed up goals. If you’ve applied for a new position at work it can mean that you are going to be “turned down” this may be for a reason. It can also mean that if you achieve success in gaining a new position (either through work or finances) then it is not the right time. In regards to money, the ace of wands reversed shows that you need to “plant your ideas” in the spiritual world. How can you ever achieve something if you don’t know where you’re going in terms of yes or no this is a “no” card. But it emphasizes the need for strength and power to turn it into a positive result.

The Ace of Wands Reversed - Health and Wellness

In health and wellness spreads the Ace of Wands reversed indicates that you need to look more into the magical perspective of others. Obviously, the ace represents a new start. Pulling this card indicates that you need your inner strength and power in order to remain healthy. Generally speaking, the Ace of Wands can represent a new change on the horizon,  This is somehow being blocked and is not manifesting.  It can mean that you are feeling frustrated and misplaced.

The Ace of Wands Reversed - Personal Spirituality

You might resist change and be reluctant to take on certain elements of life when the Ace of Wands reversed appears. It can indicate that your creative energies are blocked. Alternatively, somebody may be letting you down.  I do feel this is a time for “setting goals” but on an energetic field - you are feeling weary of reluctant to take on spiritual self-growth. The placement of any Ace reversed in your spread points to emphasize like a command you need to look at your spiritual goals.

The Page of Cups Tarot Card Meaning

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 sensitive, creative, emotionally resourceful, affectionate, tender and loyal. 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. There is a melancholy and passionate energy to this youth, one who studies hard but gets distracted easily by her imagination. This is representative of someone who isn’t necessarily just young, but is someone who doesn’t have as many experiences or is still developing in their character. We are all developing and changing throughout life, but this card refers to someone who is going through quite a few initiatory phases at once.

This could also be representative of someone who is willing to work hard for you if you are in need of assistance. There is a level of desire to be drawn to the arts, to meditation, to magic. The Page of Cups is young, true, but she is also exceptionally connected to her intuition. She feels things deeply and intensely. When this card appears in your reading, there is news, a message or even the birth of a child. This level of newness is rampant at this phase of the suit of Cups.

The image on the card shows a well-dressed youth or maiden who stands pondering a cup from which a fish pushes out of the water. This is a symbol of inspiration or an idea of the imagination. Behind the Page exists the flowing sea, a symbol of the subconscious. In this suit, water is the connecting force that is in all of us, and it connects us directly to the Earth and to the Moon and too many other transits. So albeit a young perspective, this is a highly connected time of your life. Even though right now you may feel frustrated or inexperienced, the time will pass, most assuredly. Now you must focus on what you are learning, so that you might become wise.

You are going to be receiving help in what is worrying you, and much in the form of cooperative energy. This is going to be an energy which moves you past the relatively emotional and young form of possessiveness or jealousy, even manipulation and you have begun to master the capacity to offer a level of loyalty. You aren’t really interested in the ways of the youth, the drama of what you used to experience with petty people and experiences. You are in a space of desiring to be clear of all of that, and the Page of Cups is allowing you to have that. What you must do right first is examine what it is that you get out of the petty drama that surrounds you, and then once you have been able to identify it, let it go because you have more work to do. You must begin now cutting those out of your life that are causing you to still deal with that kind of drama. When you have cut them out, your life will be more relaxed and you will be able to feel as though you truly have evolved from childlike things.

The Page of Cups blesses you with the ability to speak with emotional strength and sureness, and you are able to tell people what you do and do not want. Once you have let go of those that bring you down you develop an unencumbered existence that is full of sensual desire, as well as a balance between your fantasy life and how to make it possible.

One of the other benefits of having the Page of Cups benefit your experience is that you will begin to develop great ideas and psychic abilities through meditation and study. Important messages direct from God to you are on their way. Spend some time at the beginning and at the end of your day to ponder in quiet meditation so that you can listen to what is being said to you. The transformation side of your world emotionally opens the door for emotional opportunities. Consider who you can depend on, who in your life will allow you to express yourself freely. Then spend time with them.

The Page of Cups in Love

The Page of Cups in love and romance tells you that you are in the place in your life where you are transitioning from the child who has unending and fantastical crushes to someone who takes that energy and creates something real. If you are currently pursuing someone who you have been pawning over for a while, now is the time to take action and to try for it. The fantasies will serve you no longer. Push yourself to deal with what happens in reality. If they like you, then move forward. If they do not return your affection, then MOVE ON. The key here is to differentiate between what is good and real and exciting and what is only in your head.

The Page of Cups in Health

When the Page of Cups arrives in your Health reading, you have news coming your way. If you have been worrying about the results of a test or are just wondering the overall state that you are in physically, these answers are going to come in the form of information which will tell you the next move. Currently you have been living too much in your head about your physical health, so now is the time for you to take your concerns to the doctor and find out what is really happening. The news will be good, so push yourself to go GET the news.

The Page of Cups in Work and Wealth

The Page of Cups in Work and Wealth is telling you that you still have far to go before you can rest in your work life. There is a work ethic required in the professional world that you have not quite latched onto yet. Perhaps you are coming in just a little late, or not getting as much work done as you could. The Page of Cups reminds you to put your nose to the grindstone so that you can get all that you can out of your work situation. If you are an excellent performer at work, great things are in store for you.

The Page Of Cups in the Reversed Position

Reversed Page of Cups in a reading

Sometimes in life, we act without thinking and then we do something that isn’t really considered smart. This is what is happening now with the Page of Cups appearing in your reading in the reversed position. Perhaps you have not met the commitment that you promised, or you have been somewhat dishonest. Now is the time to gain liberation by righting the wrongs you have made, and then attempting to not make the same mistake again the future to build your character. The important part of your transition right now is the learning of the lessons. As long as you are learning, it will all be ok.
