3 Card Tarot Reading

The Hierophant Tarot Card Meaning

The Hierophant expresses that life is your teacher, providing you with lessons to learn for growth opportunities and the understanding that conflicting issues exist for the purpose of bringing new growth into your life. 

When you start to feel pressed down by the ‘shoulds’ in life, remember to listen to that higher source energy, or teacher that will show you the way. The Hierophant provides a way to gather conscious thoughts into your minds that are fed into the subconscious which assimilates and then provides you flashes of intuition. This intuition actually stretches forth from our human desire to participate in religious beliefs, which require that overarching hierarchy.

Making a wish for another person puts divine power into action. This is why prayer is so important in most religions. The act of being compassionate, of giving over your faith to a higher power to help those we love or those we don’t know provides a reverence and humbleness that is important to improve one’s character. The Hierophant’s message is for you to take your concern to God and to pray, and to allow the stillness and peace of your prayers to bring calmness to your heart and intuition to your mind. The triple cross designs on the robes of the Hierophant represent spiritual respiration. The love of nature, love of God and the love of one’s neighbors are a part of the hierarchies housed within higher source energy. Reflecting on new interests, decisions, excitement and provide a development of self. Share wisdom with others, you are a teacher.

The Hierophant in Love

The Hierophant teaches a different kind of love in reference to relationships. This is a reverent love, almost sacred. That of doing “unto others what you would have them do unto you.” This is the love of charity, of helping your fellow man. If you have received this card for a love reading then there is something that you need to learn from giving up some of your time and energy to a charity. This could also apply to friend relationships that are close enough in spirituality that you would almost call them your sister or brother. This card will usually come up when it is time for you to focus on helping one another. There is a lack of a sense of self and an emphasis on charity. When you give of yourself in this way you are creating a cycle of love that is going to be gifted back to you, because what you say is true to the Universe is true. And if you love enough to give love, then you will receive more in return. To get this card for a "love outcome" can indicate that things are supposed to be the way they are. It can mean that nothing seems to happen. It can mean that he or she sees you as the type of “marriage” person or that the other partner is married. 

The Hierophant As Feelings

If you asked about someone’s feelings the Hierophant tarot card can mean that they are "deep" and "traditional feelings" of love. It can mean that the other partner wants you to follow the rules of love and possibly they have conservative beliefs. This means there will be a traditional approach to a relationship and it can mean that they think you are the “one.” It can also mean that this person is thinking that the other is more than just a fun time!

When the Hierophant appears for feelings may also suggest that this person is looking for a deeper level of understanding and connection with you. It may be an indication that they are looking beyond the physical and exploring emotional and spiritual connections to you. 

The Hierophant can also suggest that this person is letting go of any rigid beliefs or expectations, and instead focus on opening up the heart to unconditional love. It might be an invitation to trust in the power of  love and its ability to heal from past toxic relationships. 

The Hierophant As Love Reconciliation

When the Hierophant appears in a tarot spread for love reconciliation, it often suggests that old systems are coming into play, I always see this card as the “I will marry you” tarot card. To fully reconcile with a loved one, it may be necessary to “let go of old ways of thinking”, and I also feel embrace those new possibilities. The word 'Hierophant' itself is derived from the Greek words for 'sacred bearer of knowledge', suggesting inner wisdom has a strong role in this process. 

The Hierophant In Work, Money, Business, Career, and Wealth

In careers, the Hierophant indicates a mentor or someone that is able to provide “inside” information in a company. This card can imply that you are networking or that you will soon meet someone that can guide you through the tradition of a company. As an outcome position, the Hierophant indicates a position of authority in an organization will help you. In some cases, this card could represent a company as a whole but more likely a particular male in a father, priest or mentor capacity. The Hierophant in a business venture states clearly that your focus needs to be on spiritual endeavors instead of monetary ones. If you find that work and the acquisition of wealth are not working out the way that you would prefer, then the Hierophant says to take a break out of your normal routine and examine what necessities you have and need, and which are luxuries that are actually weighing you down. Consider giving up something of yours to help someone else, or just get rid of negative emotions around work - to lighten your personal load. But, overall I will say that this card is all about being guided by a male figure.

In finances, the card indicates the need for guidance in a similar way as with health. The Hierophant card can indicate tax issues as well as a contract of employment.

In business, readings drawing this card can mean a trade or business that indicates traditional techniques will win over clients. The Hierophant is a “mentor” is traditional and old school. In business, this could represent you. Skilled in your trade and across the next few years you will learn to allot. The Hierophant is a father/minister or a work mentor. This card is also about rules and obeying them. 

The Hierophant For Action/Advice

Generally, if you pull this card for advice means that tradition and blessings will be yours. There is a focus on being taught and teaching. What do you need to learn? There is also personal power and the need to figure things out yourself. There is also a focus on marriage and meeting people. In advice position for love, the hierophant means that you need to stick to tradition and high standards. Be ladylike is your advice or a gentleman.

The Hierophant Yes Or No

The Hierophant is known as a “yes” card when upright, for he is the spiritual pope of tarot, blessing the seeker's journey with sound and wise advice. 

The Hierophant in Health

Emotional issues come into the spread when the Hierophant is present in health. Many who experience some level of religious or spiritual restriction in one way or another are suffering some kind of energy block within their body. Often the Hierophant is a card about seeking help as well. Usually, this card will come up when dealing with intense emotion and can signify the need for counseling or guidance. 

The Hierophant As A person

As a person, we often seek out a Hierophant like one seeks advice; we find in them the path of pain, or joy and life-changing glory. If your lover sees you as the Hierophant then tthis means they see you as having wisdom. I also see this card as a system, like a school or company. It could mean that you are seen as hard working or someone you asked the tarot cards about.

The Hierophant In the Past Position

The Hierophant  in the past position is about repeating patterns and traditions. This card reminds us to celebrate our culture and heritage. When drawn in the past, the Hierophant can indicate structures have been built and created in order to fully move forward.

The Hierophant In The Present Position

In our modern “Google” age, the Hierophant appears in the present position as a giant reminder of our giant stupid egos and the horribleness that can come with it. When this card appears we may be struggling to overcome terrible impulses brought about by psycho-chick love or other difficult emotions, but we must always remember that the Hierophant is pointing us back to where we should strive for.

The Hierophant In The Future Position

This card can  indicate new beginnings in relationships. When the Hierophant appears in your outcome position it is a reminder to stay true to yourself and your beliefs. It can be a new job or relationship also. Have faith in yourself and trust that you are on the right path, it can also mean a marriage or “togetherness” in the future.

The Hierophant As Friendship Or Family

The Hierophant is a tarot card in a spread about family or friends shows the importance of social time and traditional values. It can be read as a sign of struggling to conform. According to the Hierophant, there are strong bonds between individuals when he appears.

Reversed Meaning - The Hierophant

When the Hierophant appears in a reading in the reversed position, you will have exactly the opposite experience. Instead of feeling compelled to follow a religious and spiritual order that is structured, you will feel more open or carefree. You will not feel weighted down by your earthly possessions because they do not own you. One caution to be aware of for the Hierophant reversed position is that you do not become overly superstitious, so much that it gets in the way of leading a happy and healthy life. The Hierophant in the reversed position can also signify being out of balance. Be careful of manic or overspending episodes, being too blunt or honest, or extending your opinion in areas where it is not wanted.

The Hierophant I always feel reminds us to take a step back from the status quo, to break away from traditional or restrictive teachings. At the same time, this position can represent the need for new knowledge and the freedom to explore such realms with an open mind. It implies an understanding of one's quest for personal growth and a desire to seek out whatever wisdom is needed in order to meet life’s challenges in ever-evolving ways. Reversed, the hierophant speaks of a rebelling against rigid Enlightenment thought, embracing instead a journey without walls or boundaries, one marked by curiosity, creativity and mindfulness that leads to higher truths.

Love and Romance - Hierophant Reversed

If the Hierophant is reversed, love and romance can mean all rules have been broken and barriers have been smashed. In this case, there is an openness for lovers to explore their passions freely, with no restrictions or judgements from outside people. This may be a time of transformation, when we allow ourselves to break free and open your heart.

Family and Home - Hierophant Reversed

By pulling the reversed Hierophant, family and home have been given a challenging twist. We must remember to be flexible and open-minded in our understanding of how our “family and home life” manifest themselves. It may be through a traditional nuclear family, it may be through a chosen set of friends, or it may even be through a rotating group of strangers that we draw support from. 

Work and Finances - Hierophant Reversed

The Hierophant Reversed for a work reading indicates that there is a need to make changes in the way we think about work and finances. Rather than relying on outdated systems, this card encourages you to take creative steps forward and establish a new path that takes into account our individual needs. As a result, we have the freedom to express ourselves at work without being constrained by rigid rules or regulations. 

Health and Wellness - Hierophant Reversed

The Hierophant Reversed, for health indicates energy and many possibilities. This card is about getting more fit and healthy and being worried about the traditional things when reversed. Instead of focusing purely on restrictions, it is a card that encourages exploring new paths that mean better health and balance. 

Personal Spirituality - Hierophant Reversed

An apology may feel necessary when this card appears in the personal spirituality is reversed - don't apologize! Each teaching has something special to offer and empower from - make sure it's one that feels true and brings light to your spiritual journey!

In summary, I always believe that in times of difficulty or crisis this card shows that we should trust our intuition and let the Hierophant guide you on your path.

The Queen of Cups Tarot Card Meaning

The Queen of Cups is an excellent card representing one being in control of her emotions and is a great card regarding emotions and love. More than that she is a wise queen that understands that there is a balance between emotion and intuition and seeking out a common ground for your own inner feelings of peace.

Internally the Queen of Cups shows tender love and can reflect good signs as well for feelings of spirituality and harmony. It’s an excellent time to focus on the goals that make you happy and internal love. Pending the placement of the card, there are aspects of your life that are full and like a tapestry of warm colors adding to your own internal peacefulness. The Queen of Cups is already at her station in life and she has figured out the real and true aspects of her life that are worth her efforts. She understands that not all things no matter how well that they may sound, are good options for her. It can indicate a time for you to look at your life and ask yourself if you are truly happy. You want to be sure that the energies that you are putting out into the world are going to be ones that bring rewards back to you that matter and make you feel like you have done something worth doing.

When the Queen of Cups is present you may also want to be on the lookout for an older female, usually, someone that has somewhat of a mothering personality to her. She often will be lending her assistance while you are working out issues in your life and is someone that you want to be sure to be listening to. This is someone that you can trust and someone that you can know is looking out with your best interests at heart.

The Queen of Cups in Love

In love, the Queen of Cups often knows what she wants and can be a good indicator that it is time to follow your feelings or gut about a relationship or someone in particular. With the Queen of Cups showing up in your love reading, you can breathe easier knowing that there is some fulfillment coming your way. Because the Queen is ruler over the realms of the emotional and spiritual, it is also wise to understand that there is little tolerance in your life right now for not being responsible emotionally.

There is an air of acceptance and empathy around you, but do not take that to mean that you can get away with whatever you want. Right now, the pressure is on your whether looking for love or in a relationship to be the open one and to be honest about your feelings. You are in control. You have the power and direction to make things happen in love at this time.

The Queen of Cups in Health

The Queen of Cups can be a concerning card when it comes to health because she often can be a person showing concern or care. Where concern and care are present, it usually doesn’t bode well for health. Now maybe a good time to get your check-up and just make sure everything is on track. The good news is that water is a healing element and anything you catch now should be early on and easy to heal.

The Queen of Cups in Work and Wealth

The Queen of Cups is often a good card in other areas of life, but not the best indicator for finances or wealth. Think of her as a woman not concerned with money. She likes to be comfortable, but she isn’t going out of her way to make money. For you, this doesn’t mean it’s bad news thankfully… but it doesn’t mean good news either! Now isn’t a great time to be focusing on new investments or growth in this area. The card comes up when you are superficially asking about finances can tell you that it is time for you to be focusing on other aspects of your life.

In work specifically, it is a good indicator that you need to consider what you are doing to make a living. Is what you are doing paying the bills but not feeding into your happiness? If you find that you dislike your job it is a great time to find something that is more suitable to you. Be sure to balance out all of your needs in the long run. It is also good to focus on the other cards including this one in reading to see what direction the reading as a whole is taking. Often when the Queen of Cups shows up it will be when there are concerns about happiness but a requirement is present to balance all of your current needs. Focus on what will fulfill your needs in most areas.

Queen of Cups Advice

The Queen of Cups is a card deeply rooted in emotion and intuition. Seeing it in relation to advice reading is a clear message: now is the time to look within yourself and connect with your feelings. The queen of cups naturally avoids any conflict. They represent one's “loving” side. She is the carer, the nurturer, and ensures that her family is provided for. In my view, for advice, this card is saying to act through love and trust your instincts. Be more in touch with your sensual side. The mind, while useful, can sometimes be corrupting when it comes to decision making - it races and overanalyzes while emotions are pure and true. 

Whatever the scenario you are currently facing, the Queen of Cups is suggesting you trust in the deepest part of your own nature - seek settings which are meditative and peaceful, give yourself the space to access the most compassionate and nurturing parts of yourself. All in all, this card has a message of simplicity - it runs in opposition to the quick-moving power of the mind and asks, instead, that you think with your heart. If you keep working with your natural intuition, you won’t go wrong. 

Queen of Cups Yes Or No

If you’re seeking a yes or no answer in a tarot card reading, then the Queen of Cups isn’t a clear signifier one way or the other. That’s because this card is neutral, its meaning can only be derived by the question being asked. The reader can try and gauge this meaning by reflecting on their question and the general meaning of the card, the Queen is a symbol of womanhood, virtue, and emotional wisdom. The clear link between intuition and this card could be a sign that the right answer lies inside of you. Take comfort in this card, all the seeking you must do is within yourself. Try and let your feelings roll over you, see which way they push you, and you will find the solution you desire. 

Queen of Cups Past

When the Queen of Cups appears in the past position it is a symbol of a deeply important relationship you had with a person in your past. While this can sometimes point to a male figure, it usually signifies a female presence. Whoever the person, they were emotionally intelligent, deeply caring, and played an integral role in giving you a clear sense of your own morality. 

For this reason, seeing this card in the past position could be a reminder to reconnect with those values you of a female. In this position, it can also be a call back to an event or time in your life in which you were especially compassionate or creative - perhaps it is an old hobby or project you were working on? If this resonates with you, then the Queen of Cups is likely signifying the nurturing impact this creative pursuit had on you personally. It may just be the time to think about starting a new creative project!

Queen of Cups Present 

Though the Queen of Cups has a very clear relationship with tranquility, seeing this card in your present position does not necessarily mean you are currently in the midst of a peaceful experience. In fact, conversely, it may be suggesting that you are weathering a difficult emotional period, one that requires patience and reflection. If so, this card is a reminder to connect with your most nurturing side - give all your love, warmth, and kindness to those around you. This is especially true if you have recently found yourself taking on a maternal role of care (this doesn’t necessarily have to refer to your own children, remember). To make the most of this reading, you should look to be proactive in your empathy, try and be observant of those around you and see where you can help. You have a bright light within you, your creativity and compassion may be the saving grace for someone close to you. 

Queen of Cups Future and Outcome

When The Queen of Cups is related to future and outcome spreads, it signifies an upcoming chapter where you will need to draw from your emotional and spiritual knowledge. When the time comes, you will need to muster your strength to say consistent and calm, no matter how trying the situation. The Queen is a symbol of sensitivity, but also composure - she listens and reflects before she reacts. Try and draw strength by practicing your own endurance in even the most difficult and stressful situations. This upcoming period may be hard for you, others around you will likely be swept up in the chaos and become reactive, but if you can remain patient you will be the saving grace of those closest to you. It may not be an easy role to take on, but it is one that will leave you stronger, more mature as well as filling others with a deep sense of gratitude for your unwavering support and empathy. 

Queen of Cups Love Reconciliation

As a card with a clear connection to emotion, the Queen of Cups is generally a positive card to draw in a love and reconciliation reading. If you’re enquiring about a past relationship, it likely points to a nurturing romantic partnership, one in which emotions run deep and are entirely authentic. It is likely you will get back together. If you’re experiencing trouble in your relationship, it suggests that being emotionally open will benefit your mutual development. Now is the time to talk about your feelings and be open to both of your own unique perspectives. 

If you are single, this card is a signal that a loving experience is coming your way. It might be time to start meeting new people and develop new connections. Remember, this card is all about trusting your own instincts and appreciating people fully, not just on the surface level. Don’t be deterred by anything superficial. Instead, seek real emotional intimacy and you might just find your soulmate. 

Queen of Cups As Feelings

Encountering the Queen of Cups when trying to understand how someone feels about you should inspire reassurance. Just as this card is full of gentle feeling, the person you are curious about is brimming with positive emotion, they definitely feel very warmly towards you. However, it is worth noting, that as this card exists primarily in the emotional realm, this person may not be aware of just how deep their feelings for you go. We can store a lot of emotion in our subconscious, but trust that their true sensibilities will make their way to the surface eventually.

This card may also suggest that someone feels protective of you. They see your sensitivity and may interpret this as fragility. It’s true that if your nature aligns with the Queen of Cups you may be best-matched with someone with a strong rational who can balance out your dreaminess. However, never forget to trust in the strength and power of the emotional, creative realm you’re so in touch with. It is fine to trust in a person who wants to take care of you, but be wary they don’t clip your wings or limit your imagination.

The Queen Of Cups In The Reversed Position

Reversed the Queen is still present but lacking direction. In the reversed position she can show erratic emotional states. The emotion is there but there is a lack of control and it will often show that there is a more serious underlying issue at hand. With the Queen not in control there is havoc in the castle and in your own life even you may find that you are surrounded with rumors, innuendo, or dysfunction. Now is a time to be on your guard and to walk on eggshells. Be careful how you react and ponder ways in which you are not being reasonable emotionally. Do not allow yourself to get overextended or emotionally exhausted as it is bound to cause problems in your relationships, friendships, and at work. 

Queen of Cups As Friendship

The Queen of Cups is a great card to see in a friendship reading - it is a card of love and community. It points to the power of embracing friends fully and not being afraid to give them all of your love and support. If your friendship group is feeling shut off at the moment, this card is a reminder that there is no better time to reconnect than right now. If a close friend is going through a difficult period, then the Queen of Cups suggests that you should extend your friendship and use your powers of reflection to offer valuable advice. This is a good time to exercise some selflessness - all the goodness and help you bestow upon a friend will come back to you in the end, anyway. 

Queen of Cups Reversed - Love and Romance

While the Queen of Cups upright highlights the balance and power of emotional tranquility, when reversed it can refer to instability. In a love and romance reading, this is likely to relate to insecurity and jealousy. Are your feelings getting the better of you? Some emotions, such as love and happiness, are very useful driving forces, but negative emotions, such as jealousy or resentment, can cause a lot of harm. This card reversed is a gentle push telling you to reflect on your actions, take a step back, and see if your own behaviour has been fair and measured. If it hasn’t been, now may be the time to make amends by letting go of any feelings of bitterness. Now is the time to focus on your intuition - don’t let your head be clouded with the green mist of jealousy. 

If you are single, the Queen of Cups reversed is a reminder you should proceed with caution. There is an imbalance of emotions in your life right now, and this is not a good state to be in when entering a relationship. Vulnerability can draw in bad-natured people who will see your fragility as a chance to exert power and take advantage of you. If you’re looking for direction, this reversed card implies that time spent restoring emotional balance is important. Seek personal security and inner peace before you begin looking outside yourself for love. The only person who can truly rebalance your feelings within is your own self. 

​Queen of Cups Reversed - Family and Home

Seeing the reversed Queen of Cups in a family and home spread is a prompt to the reader that now is the time to rediscover love in the home. Sometimes, it is easy to forget that love is the core of every family. When you see this card reversed you should take heed: everyone in your home should try and adjust to a more positive outlook. Perhaps the family has become overrun with anger, stress, and instability. This reading may even be highlighting a particular person (possibly yourself), and likely a woman, someone who was once the foundation of the family has become untethered, leading the rest of the family to become insecure as a result. That isn’t to say this woman is entirely to blame for the situation, merely that she has reached her emotional limit. To restore harmony, family members should look to find new ways to express gratitude for each other and display their love. When people feel appreciated it is much easier to overcome resentment which might otherwise seep into the everyday. Female intuition and compassion can amend this and restore harmony in the home.

Queen of Cups Reversed - Work and Finances

In a work and finance context, the Queen of Cups reversed may be highlighting work stress or a burden of emotion relating to your financial situation. You may be overworking and leaving yourself in a fragile emotional state. 

If you’re feeling unsure about your career choices you may also be suffering from indecision, and allowing yourself to become overwhelmed with emotion. Whatever the case, you’re likely feeling unsatisfied. When reversed, this card is a signal that you need to evaluate your situation and your options. Are you feeling stunted creatively? Are the conditions of your work-life leading you to feel stressed? Are you spending money frivolously and then inflicting financial worries? Take the time to fully assess what’s going on in your life and then plan to take action. While you may have been reactive in the past, now is the time to change all that by reflecting deeply and carefully on your career choices and what you can do to make yourself happy and secure going forward.

Queen of Cups Reversed - Health and Wellness

The reversed Queen of Cups in a health reading may be highlighting stress or overexertion. If you’ve been spreading yourself too thin recently, then you should think about taking a pause and giving yourself the rest you need. You may be busy, but in the long run, you’ll only burn out if you keep on at the rate you’re currently operating. Remember that you have to take care of yourself before you can properly take care of others. The result of all this rushing around may also be impacting your emotional wellbeing - when you’re stressed, you’re more likely to be sensitive and if you’re not careful one small comment could be the straw to break the camels back. All in all, the reversed Queen of Cups in this kind of reading is a call to stop and rest for the benefit of your health. 

Queen of Cups Reversed - Personal Spirituality

Seeing the Queen of Cups reversed in a personal spirituality reading is a sign of limited potential. It may be the case that you’ve been ignoring signs to reconnect with your spiritual side or that you have allowed yourself to become so over-saturated with emotions your intuition is not functioning like normal. In some cases, the reversal of this card actually suggests you have psychic abilities that you are not exercising. To remove the spiritual blockage try meditation. Slow down and, with time, you will find yourself back on your predestined spiritual path. 

Queen of Cups and Judgement Combo

That it is important to let your feelings go when you see this combo.

The World Tarot Card Meaning

The World is your oyster when you see this card in your reading.

Like with the Wheel of Fortune card, it is indicative that there is luck on your side and that the universe is looking at you favorably. However, when the World is present it says that things are definitely looking up and that what you want is at your fingertips, you simply have to reach out and take what you want. When you see this card in a reading it is a reminder that all things are possible and that there are endless forces at work that you can’t see.

This card is a very personal card. It is often compared to the Wheel of Fortune card because it carries similar weight and meaning. The main difference between the cards is that the World reflects the present and now. Even in a past or future position in a reading the card carries positive energies that affect your present standing. The luck from the Wheel of fortune card pays off and becomes true reward. The reward from the World card is similar to the feeling of winning or being triumphant. Thy symbolism on the card in the Rider-Waite deck is largely based on completion or reaching the end. The World is the last card in the major arcana of the tarot and at the point in which the story would normally start over. It can symbolize a prosperous end to an aspect in your life and new beginnings coming forth soon.

Now is a time to allow yourself to shine, relish in what you have accomplished, and perhaps even brag a little bit. There are aspects in your life that one would consider worthy accomplishments and it’s okay to take a little bit of time to celebrate them. Also, understand that with the ending of one journey that it is simply the beginning of another. Strive for greatness in a task that you are working to complete right now and be assured that the hard work you are putting in will pay off.

The World in Love

When a person in love finds the World card in their relationship reading they can know for certain that they are on the right track. Usually, you will see this card come up when one stage of the relationship has ended and things are ready to take a more serious turn. In a future position in a reading, it is very promising and shows the potential for growth and a deeper level in their relationship. Consider taking a step forward on your own in the relationship at this time. Whether it is moving in with your partner, making a purchase together, or if you have been thinking about having children now is an excellent time. The World also is a good sign of fertility in general. For women looking to get pregnant, it shows that the timing is also right.

This card talks about bounty, completion, and satisfaction. For those seeking love or feeling on the lonely side, it is a favorable sign that you are internally and emotionally ready to move ahead into something new. Consider how you have been coping with the past regarding love and you will likely find that a weight has recently been lifted or that you are feeling more ready to proceed to find something new

The World in Health

Regarding health, the World is a card of healing or defeating illness. Have you been feeling sick lately or worried about someone around you? The World bodes well for recovery and is often seen once the illness has passed. In some cases, it will also be a good indicator of mental or spiritual health as well. It shows that you have found completeness or a sense of happiness or peace that you have been much needing.

Specifically, concerning surgery or a trip to the hospital, this is a favorable card. Especially common, the World will present during times of intense worry in order to reassure you that you will be alright. At this point, everything has already been set in motion and you have done everything you can. Allow for help and assistance to increase health and let the professionals do their job.

The World in Work and Wealth

The World card brings news of wealth to the financial department and is sometimes accompanied by winning or finding a decent amount of money. It is not a good time to take risks… rather you should allow time right now for hard work to pay off. The work you have already put into place will find a reward for you. If you have been looking for a job you have likely already applied or interviewed for the job that you are going to get.

Reversed World in a reading

Like many reversed major arcana cards in the tarot, the World card carries an opposite meaning when in the reversed position. This card placed upside down indicates stagnation, lack of success, and disappointment. Consider what you have been putting a lot of energy into and seeing no rewards from. Focus your energies on healthy outlets and make sure that you are doing all you can to ensure positive outcomes. Avoid high-risk behavior or making drastic changes. You will likely know what area this card is referring to as the efforts you are putting out are stronger in one area of your life than all the others. Rather than indicating that everything is wrong in your life, the reversed World card is calling you attention to one aspect. The World is one of those cards that tend to be positive, no matter whether upright or reversed.

While upright it shows everything that you need or want at your fingertips and is positive for the future, the reversed World still states that you have opportunities around you, you’re moving forward and that positive situations are coming. However, changes may be slower than expected or not as great as initially anticipated. You may need to work harder to get the results you want. There may one more unexpected hurdle ahead of you. Don’t give up. You may feel like the weight of the world is resting on your shoulders, but the end is near. Keep moving forward, trusting in the original plan but being mindful of any changes that you can make to improve your chances of an outcome.

World Reversed - Love and Romance

For love, the World in any form indicates growth and symbolizes positive changes in the department of love. Romance is in the air but you want to be sure that you are making time for it. If you’re looking for love, chances are that you are about to find a potential partner without looking. There is someone for you out in the world and the reversed position of this card is a good sign that that person is close. You likely know your next potential lover but are not close friends. Keep an eye out for a special someone flirting with you and remember that love sometimes comes from where it is least expected. For those with an established relationship, the World card reversed shows slow but positive changes. It is a reminder that you may need to make more time for your partner or that you should let the little things go.

World Reversed - Family and Home

When we see the World reversed, it often reflects on a person who is not seeing the whole picture. If a vacation or travel is in the works, be wary about your plans. There is a warning for you in this card saying that your travels may not go as planned. It’s not a horrible omen indicating danger, however, it can show travel delays and minor difficulties that may leave you feeling frustrated, especially if your travel plans are strict. Be flexible and you should come out okay. This is the same lesson for family interactions. Troubles at home are likely being caused by some narrow-minded beliefs, pickiness or critical thinking. Remember that your home and family are the foundations for your world. Encourage growth, seek opportunities for interpersonal connection and allow for others in your family to do their own thing. Consider ways that you may be judgmental or unfair regarding people who live in your home or that you consider family.

World Reversed - Work and Finances

A good sign for new work and promotions, you’re going to get what you have worked for but unless you really polish your efforts at this time, you may not be as pleased with the results. Lack of flexibility or inability to go with the flow can restrict success. Consider your views about your work environment, people that you work with that may rub you up the wrong way and these feelings can be hindering your efforts to advance your position or finances. Take time to network and to think outside the box. Additionally, be mindful of your own attitude. Narrow-mindedness is a common association with the World reversed and chances are that you are not being fair in your assessment of others. On a larger business scale, the World reversed indicates business and government setbacks, symbolizing a hostile world or business environment wrought with friction, sometimes caused by a point of corruption within the ranks.

In a reading regarding earthy topics of health, wealth or wellness, the World reversed shows a rigid or traditional world view that is stubborn in sticking to traditions. With the World reversed, you may want to check your health. Physically or mentally, you are likely feeling fatigued. Stressors in your life may have recently turned your life upside down, but realize that there is a lot of positive going on around you right now. The World reversed reminds you to take stock in small positive changes and to not to be too hard on yourself.

World Reversed - Personal Spirituality

Consider the repeating patterns in your spirituality. These can be seen clearly when you focus on emotions that you feel on the regular. Your emotions are a good indicator of your overall spiritual wellness. With the World reversed in your reading, chances are you are feeling angst or lacking inspiration. If you have been actively working to manifest through spellwork, prayer or other means, the World reversed reminds you to be vigilant in your faith and to be mindful of negative thought patterns that may be thwarting your efforts. Incorporate awareness and mindfulness techniques into your practices, such as affirmations or positive mantras, to reinforce any desires that you may have been aiming for on a spiritual or magical basis.
