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.

The balancing act of the tarot and the story that it tells is no more apparent than with the Nine of Cups. It truly is one of the most positive cards in the deck and a welcome addition to any reading. When you see this card in your reading you can be glad that good things are coming your way. The yellow background in the background of the Nine of Cups indicates happiness and emotional security.

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.

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.

You are a dedicated, motivated, emotional, tender, sensitive and loving person. The Knight of Cups is symbolic of a younger kind of love, but one that is greatly enhanced by the ability to take action. The Knight is innocent but is maturing, a student of life, he sacrifices for others in his path for wisdom. This is very much the same for you.

The Seven of Swords is a card known to many for its different challenges. The importance of communicating yourself at this point, in your most honest way possible is that at this point in time you are traversing a potential trap of getting stuck into a lack mentality. Mental projects that you have applying efforts to be carried out into the physical world so that you can materialize your ideas into reality and so that you can see concrete results that you are proud of.

In all my readings this is a good card to draw. The Empress represents mothering love, an authority figure that is looking out for you and is often a kind guardian.

Each Ace of the Rider Waite deck emphasizes new beginnings on various levels. If you have received the Ace of Cups in your reading, then you either being blessed or will be blessed with a very promising time in your life. The Ace of Cups is like a giant gift from the Heaven. The card itself depicts an image of a hand that is stretching outward from the heavens.

In all tarot decks I own this is a card is about movement. It is about what is coming next and action. 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!

The Nine of Pentacles is a card of sacrifice and discipline as a means to getting what you want. When this card is revealing in your reading you are in good hands. The Nine of Pentacles shows that unlike others, you have learned from your own mistakes and you are working on moving forward in your life. Right now is an excellent time to be making plans to complete goals, rather than to be starting on something new. Take the time now to reap what you have sown and to watch the positive materialize.
