Celtic Cross

The Eight of Swords is commonly known as the card of victimization. You fear pain and restriction, yet that which you fear is exactly what is blocking you the most. You are going through a season where you do not trust anyone and you worse you are constantly doubting your own abilities. You are perpetuating this cycle by trying to battle more than one issue at a time and that is part of what is causing you debilitating indecision.

The Moon is a very emotional and intuitive card. It calls to light your deepest and darkest desires. When the Moon is present it is a time to be aware of how your physical health is being affected by your mental health. It can also represent being very aware to almost a hyper vigilant state, being over sensitive, and madness. Remember that fits of madness also often lend themselves to time of genius inspiration and if you are feeling exceptionally out of sorts that all of your pent up energy can be used for the greater good of your life.

The Suit of Pentacles is a suit that not only represents finances, abundance and money, but it is also a symbol of abundance, home and the nurturing of the Mother Earth. When the Page of Pentacles appears in your reading, you are developing a respect for learning and new ideas; you are a young scholar, typically introverted despite your best efforts to the contrary.

When the Four of Swords appears in your reading your ability to negotiate circumstances that are not to your liking is magnified tenfold. You are a flexible person; you wish to have a commitment in you life that stays in balance, which is not fluid. A knight lies in effigy upon his tomb. His hands are folded together in a prayer. This is symbolic of a time of peace after war, the necessity to contemplate one’s future moves.

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.

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.

The King of Swords is not one to be trifled with as he shows great energy around you at this time. When this card comes up you are on the top of your game mentally speaking and it’s a great card revealing high intellect, focus, and determination on one or more aspects of your life.

The Eight of Pentacles gives you a taste of success but reminds you that you can’t have what you want overnight. There is a goal in sight for you right now and you are on the right path – learning new tricks, creating healthy environments around you, and otherwise doing what you can to succeed. The Eight of Pentacles is a reminder not to give up and to continue on the path that you are on now.

When the King of Wands has visited your reading, you are being reminded to not limit yourself. It is important to be adaptable and versatile. Now is the time to act spontaneously, give yourself time to be like the Chameleon and change your colors to match your environment. Do not change yourself so much that you lose the connection to your inner self, but allow yourself some change so that you can learn that strength is being flexible and mutable.

Following with the story line of the pentacles you will find that there are ups and downs regarding stability, money, and work. The Six of Pentacles is now that realization of charity and good works. It is a representation of either you receiving charity that is much needed to get you to where you need either financially or in regards to a living situation. Base needs are now being met and positive changes are happening.
