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 Sun is the most positive oracle in the deck. In the Rider Waite deck the symbolism of the card is easily interpreted as the sun shines over a new baby and aptly named “sun”flowers in the background. The infant, along with the flowers growing, indicates new life and in readings and often represents a new direction. Children being born, questions of prosperity are answered, abundance of wealth, and recovery from illness are all implied by this card. As the infant rides atop the white stallion, he carries a red banner. The deck is famous for using color as symbolism and red often symbolizes power, momentum, and triumph. This card represents the universe coming together and agreeing with your path and aiding forward movement into something greater.

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.

The Ten of Wands has appeared in your reading to tell you that you have taken on far more then you can handle. Your plate is too full, and you are over burdened by the expectations that you have placed on yourself. Now you feel utterly blocked both emotionally and physically, and your spirit is downtrodden. However this is the time in your journey where you must complete a major spiritual initiation. Initiation periods in life are extremely uncomfortable, but if we didn’t have to experience them, we would never make any progress. These are the times that feel the most constricted, the most painful, and the most difficult to work through.

The Two of Swords is a card that effects most people now and again in their lives and when the time comes it is never a comfortable position to be in. There are in fact so many options at your disposal in this moment that you fear making a move in case it is the wrong move therefore your hands are tied and you are stuck. Understandably this is not a position in which you would prefer to stay, so you desire with great strength to push out of it, but you don’t know where to start.

If you have received the Four of Cups in your reading then you are likely either experiencing a time of weariness or frustration in material affairs or you are about to experience a transit of this. The Four of Cups recognizes that there is a lack of perspective happening in your life. The young man, depicted on the card, is sitting under a tree contemplating his material possessions in life.

The Suit of Swords, as in all suits, is a story of progression. There are different levels of growth, opportunities for change that are presented to get you through the story from the beginning, middle and then to the end. Whatever the case may be, you are experiencing a really challenging cycle where you feel as though you have been utterly destroyed. This card is symbolic of despair, of lack, a metaphorical death of an aspect of your life.

Odin, the great Norse God hung from the World Tree for nine days in order to gain the wisdom and mystery of the Universe and an understanding of mankind. So must you, in this time in your life, metaphorically take some time receiving wisdom from the Universe. There is something that you are missing because your life is moving too fast; slow it down significantly in order to identify what decisions need to be made in your life at this time. This card often comes up in a reading when one is being plagued by a certain level of uncertainty and therefore the Hanged Man reminds you to have faith in solace and allow yourself to gain perspective.
