3 Card Tarot Reading

The Ace Of Swords Tarot Card Meaning

When you have received the Ace of Swords in your reading, there is a certain level of enhancement of your intellect as well as increasing perspective of mental clarity present with you at this time.

You are capable of having a balanced mind, and you are a very receptive person. You have moved away from feeling confused and being full of doubt to a more expanded knowledge that is blessed by the heavens. The Ace of Swords is a gift yet to come. It recognizes that you are highly analytical, as well as rational and you have developed many beneficial skills such as communication, administration as well as the ability to teach and to absorb lessons. Right now you are going to be blessed with a level of intellectual fulfillment. Now is the time to take into consideration your own ability to shine brighter than those around you.

The image of the Ace of Swords from the Rider Waite Deck is depicted as a giant hand that emerges from the heavens holding a double edged sword. The crown of victory encircles the hand, where the olive brand of mercy and the palm branch of severity hang from it. This card is known to be symbolic of justice, energies that maintain order as well as the equilibrium between forgiveness and rigidity. There is an encouragement of the adventure found in conquest, of a triumph over adversity with a time of great activity. This card will be influencing you in the way that there will be strong levels of love or hate, depending on the circumstances surrounding your life at the point of your reading. The Ace of Swords is the bearer of championing for oneself as well as the possibility of new fruit to be born. For example, this could be a symbol of a child being born who has a heroic temperament.

Balance the pros and cons of the different up and coming events in your life. The Ace of Swords allows you to be cutting in your decision making; you should only allow yourself to make room for that which is pushing you forward. Therefore you must embrace the strength that is being gifted to you at this time by cutting through excess baggage that will allow you to focus on your goals and desires like a flashlight. What will bring you the most success at this time is to stop worrying about what might be and instead take charge over what can be controlled now, what IS. Now you must put all of your energy into creating new plans and ideas. If you are experiencing a time of frustration or misery, you must work to strengthen your thoughts on the happiness that you wish to create, because if you truly want it to happen, then you will.

The pursuit of wisdom allows you to see beyond illusions to the spiritual knowledge housed within life. The mind, without intuition, leads only to more fantasy or illusion. At this time, as in all of life, love is integral if you wish to find truth in the wisdom of the world.  Your emotions are what guide you to bigger and better things in life. The Ace of Swords asks for you to consider what problems you are confronting at this time as well as what is happening in your mind on a regular basis.

The Ace of Swords in Love

The Ace of Swords presents itself in a Love reading to make sure that you are paying attention. The hand is reaching out to you from the heavens to clear the way of that which does not bring you closer to your desires in love. If you have been feeling as if you are never going to find someone because life is too complicated or you can never find a person that really matches you on an integral level, now is the time to relax because the hand that is reaching from the heavens is clearing the way for you. Things will become extremely less complicated and you will be able to find someone that will be an appropriate match at this time. But you must make sure that you are connecting to your intuition so that you can be guided to the right person.

The Ace of Swords in Health

The Ace of Swords presents itself in your reading regarding health to advise you to lessen the amount of excess busy-ness that you have in your life right now. Often this card will show up when the question of surgery has arrived in a person’s life. This is the answer that you have been looking for, if there is a removal of some kind of growth necessary, the Ace of Swords provides a protective force throughout the procedure, which means now is a good time to begin to sign the paperwork and gets the procedure going. Other examples of the Ace of Swords in Health revolve around removing excess. For example, you may want to work on excess foods and excess unhealthy indulgences so that you do not get stuck with excess physically that you cannot handle.

The Ace of Swords in Work and Wealth

In work, the Ace of Swords is offering to you the opportunity of a lifetime, to get rid of the work environment or communication with coworkers that take up your time needlessly. Now a promotion is in your future, one that will allow you to use your creative skills and intuition and get paid for it. Keep your eyes open. When this card is drawn in a working spread it means that there will be a period of action that is needed. This could be also having clear clarity and full understanding of a situation, having honest open dialogues. An ace is also connected to new beginnings and the sword can show that you might need to arm yourself for defense. It’s like you are armed for a fight and the other person knows your also armed. This is giving you the chance to say sharp words -  think of the sharpness of the sword. Communications must be reached with of course clarity in a situation.

 

Reversed Meaning - Ace Of Swords

When you have received the Ace of Swords in the reversed position, you will find that you are having a hard time formulating an idea or setting up plans to complete your goals. This is likely because you have so much going on that it is hard to focus on more than one thing at a time. Therefore the Ace of Swords is telling you that you must let go of what is needless or you will get stuck in a negative cycle.  Try not to be too hasty in your decisions. Think them through.

Two Of Wands Tarot Card Meaning

There is a duality in the Two of Wands that refers to doing a job well and then seeing the benefits.

It is a card of duty and hard work, indicating that you are working through physical issues in your life (such as monetary or work issues) or can also be internal (such as emotional challenges) that require strength and resolve to overcome. Often this card comes up when you are feeling distracted. You know that you have tasks at hand and you are not ready to complete them. Now is the time to get cracking! Events are about to unfold in your life – new adventures, new job opportunities, or new responsibilities for example – and you need to be prepared for them.

The figure on the Two of Wands card is looking out over a great distance and often is thought of as a Christopher Columbus type individual (even though it is a woman on my card). Before setting sail on the voyage, notice how she is looking at the world wondering and waiting to what is ahead of her. There is a long road ahead of you and there is a need for you to take time to plan your course of action. Be certain of the direction you are taking and possible hurdles that will need to be overcome. Know that the path you are on right now is one that is good for you but without your own input or direction, you will easily find your way off course.

The Wands overall are cards of action and they have a fiery or fervent nature to them. Putting off responsibilities at this time will backfire and soon you will find that you are overwhelmed. This moment in your life is the calm before the storm of activity, use this time wisely to ensure successful rewards when the job is done. Your work will not go unnoticed or unrewarded.

If you are willing to put forth the effort before you begin your endeavor, you will find that it was worth the work. The duality of the card indicates a need for balance. This is not a time to engage in conflict or to allow yourself to get swept away with the concerns of others. You have made a choice about the direction of your life and now you need to follow through. Distractions and arguments will cause you to lose sight of the end goal.

The Two of Wands in Love

There is a feeling of newness with the Two of Wands and often it will indicate the beginnings of a relationship that is established but in the earlier phases. The attraction has been confirmed and possibly even some dates, but in the end, there is a sense of boredom and lack of direction. Even in long-standing relationships or when referring to people who are married the Two of Wands references a change or series of events that have left you feeling less than fascinated in your relationship.

Sometimes the Two of Wands can indicate feelings of entrapment or boredom in a well-established relationship that can cause issues or concerns. Consider the spark in your relationship at its current time. If you are feeling like there is something lacking in the relationship focus on bringing you and your partner together through physical intimacy or interests that the two of you share. Make sure that you are planning and setting aside time for just the two of you.

In love, this also may be a time to consider your options. Are you being honest with yourself in what you truly want or have there been new avenues that have arisen that are more tempting to you than your current situation? Now is a good time to consider a change of some sort – whether it means ending a current relationship for a new person that has come into your life or starting a new relationship where there has been a void. A word of caution: before you decide to pursue other options consider that the grass is not always greener on the other side.

Two of Wands As Feelings

In a question about feelings, the Two of Wands tarot card can indicate that someone has "feelings" on a number of different levels. This could be just friendship or even romance. Often, drawing this card means that things are alright - just ok. As the figure is looking over the water (and water means passion and emotion) this can indicate that there is a block in the way this person feels. In regards to how someone sees you,  this card can mean they like the chance but they might not stick around. Often I see this card in new relationships, and a person moving from one relationship to another really quickly. It can mean strong passion but the ambitions for the longer-term mean that a decision needs to be made. The wands are sometimes shown to indicate impatience. Are you being impatient in finding the right person? One of the wands is secure but she is looking at the globe. Therefore, he or she might be getting satisfaction elsewhere but there are possibilities out there. Often this is the courage to tell the other person how they actually feel. If this card shows up in a relationship reading it can indicate that there are people who are rather stubborn.

Two Of Wands As Friendship

People around you like to have their own way. Two's are associated with creativity and relationship a real sense of passion. Often, this card represents thinking about progress or moving the relationship forward - but not wanting to commit or sacrifice because there is something that is standing in the way of the friendship. The good news is that it in regard to feelings pulling this card suggests that there is a sense of review in regards to the feelings of this friendship in the future.

The Two of Wands in Health

You are in a state of stagnation in your health if the Two of Wands has come up concerning your own wellbeing. Often boredom and fatigue combined will create health issues in their own right and can lend themselves to overeating or other unhealthy habits that have of negative consequences. Now is a time to balance the needs of your mind and body. You may want to consider walking, yoga, or mediation as a way to keep restlessness at bay. Irresponsible health choices are a common concern when the Two of Wands appears in your reading. Be mindful of your overall health especially if you are younger and take it for granted.

The Two of Wands in Work and Wealth

The Two of Wands will often represent a healthy cycle in work and money and come up when things are going well in your life. Even if you are going through a monetary crisis or have recently lost a job, the card indicates that things are turning in your favor. Usually, this card will be associated when you are about to receive a reward for work that was done well or additional perks in your current job.

This isn’t to say that everything is perfect. Rather it is a card indicating stability and a time that allows for a pause or reflection about making a new decision. The Two of Wands is present during times of change within a company. If you are worried about being fired or laid off, consider that there may likely be a better position within the same company that you are currently in that will be more rewarding to you versus the job that you currently have.

Two of Wands Yes Or No

The Two of Wands represent upright the answer is “yes.” This card is an example of the crest of experience that we all need at times - and reaching a place to utilize resources. After many possibilities, there is a chance to review and take time to see what lies ahead. Which is why the figure is overlooking the water. Notice how small the world is. Yes, the world is your oyster but it a small one. 

Two of Wands Past - Upright and Reversed

In a position to have one symbolizes that you have come to a certain point in life where you are exhibiting the strength and experience of past actions. Because the world is within the card it can indicate the huge array of possibilities around you. This is also quite a peaceful time and in the past, you may have been relaxing or taking this journey. The Two of Wands in the reversed past can indicate that talents have been wasted and that other people have been trying to get their view across. The most important things in life sometimes come to those who wait!

The Two of Wands present - Upright and Reversed

There is currently a focus on peace and finding your own self-confidence.  I’ve already mentioned in the overarching description that the card signifies a journey of determination in order to gain independence.  Currently, this means that you are making plans and possibly travel arrangements. Work or career moves you means you are gaining steady progress.  On a romantic level that could possibly be a friendship or relationship and spiritually. This is a great time for development and feels empowered to take advantage of the opportunities that have presented themselves.  

In the reversed position, the Two of Wands in the present position can mean you are feeling blocked or that you just need to have a change of scenery in order to appreciate existing again.  there is also a focus on relationships that don’t seem to be working out. 

The Two of Wands Future / Outcome - Upright and Reversed 

The two’s, in general, are all about our choices. When this card appears in the future or outcome of the spread it generally means that you need to choose and make up your mind. It is saying as an outcome you need to open your mind, don’t always follow what is in front of you.  I do feel that this position means a decision will need to be made. If reversed, this card in the future position can mean emotions may be high, think about the water being turned upside down on the image. It can signify that others may create issues and problems but these can be overcome. 

Two of Wands As Relationship Outcome

If you are asking a relationship question then the two of wands can indicate passion and happiness together.  There is spiritual, energetic and partnership in this card. It can represent a deep bond. The two of wands tells you to listen to your inner self. What do you feel? There is sometimes a focus on one partner waiting for the other one to make the move. It could also be that you are both busy but the "two" suggests a union. There is also a possible “power” battle between the two of you but there is a love connection. 

The Two of Wands Advice - Upright and Reversed 

The advice of this card is that you need to feel more connected to others and that you need to think about how you shine so make sure that there is nothing holding you back.  Also, it can mean that you need to take a journey. This could possibly be through spiritual development or indeed a journey across waters.

When this card is drawn in the reversed position for action it can mean that there is a blockage and that you have been putting your trust in someone or a project and that this has led to unreliability.  In love, the advice for both the upright and reversed positions indicate that there are opportunities that you need to grasp. But, it can mean that even though there are great opportunities on the way you are finding it hard to progress will move the relationship on.

Reversed Two of Wands in a Reading

The Two of Wands reversed indicates worry and concern and rightly so. Usually, the card comes up during times of stress or turmoil in relation to your spiritual sense and being off balance. Rather than looking outward at what you have done and thinking about your next move, you are likely to be feeling unsure or lacking confidence in your abilities. Wrong choices or actions of irresponsibility are cause to miss out on opportunities that you are qualified for. Considering taking responsible steps to get yourself back on track. Implement schedules for a regular daily routine for work, exercise, or finances. In relationships you are likely to be experiencing distance or a lack of reciprocation from a partner. Take steps to invite them into your life by offering ways to bring the two of you closer. Do not wait for them to act.

In love readings, the Two of Wands reversed can indicate a "longing" for a passionate relationship. There may be a range of possibilities or lovers. The particular emphasis on life, after drawing this card is that there is a surprise in store. This could be possibly a failure of a relationship or sudden resentments. There is also the focus of power in that it is not balanced spiritually. We are all curious about our perfect match. The universe generally sends us people in our lives and it is important to understand that our efforts do in the end bring a positive result.

The Queen of Pentacles Tarot Card Meaning

The Queen of Pentacles represents all things fertile, abundant, green, and wise. If you pulled this card then your life is about to change for the better, it is a postiive card. In my tarot decks in both the Moondust and Flora the women is strong but more importantly she connects to material and spiritual wealth. If you asked a question then this card is a clear yes.

You will see in my moonchild deck she is holding the purse and this means she has everything she needs in that money bag, this is going to be you in the future. In my Flora deck she is surrounded by wealth and money. So, this is really what this card means - you will be surrounded by money going forward.

Whenever you are going through a phase in which your finances or your home life are not what they should be, you should call upon the energies of the Queen of Pentacles to assist you. Now, if the Queen is appearing in your reading, you will experience a level of abundant support like no other time in your life. Here all of the hard work that you have invested, tilling and sowing your metaphorical fields, is paying off and you will get what you deserve. This is something to consider throughout your life, the more work you put in the more likely you are to get something wonderful in return should you choose to allow yourself.

The Queen of Pentacles is a woman generous with her gifts. She is a rich and noble soul who is compassionate and charitable, for she has more than she could ever want or need. The cycle of abundance is one that perpetuates itself. You give more to receive more. This may be difficult for you to consider if you are going through a phase of poverty, where you fear where your next meal is going to come from or you are drowning in bills – or both! But the Queen of Pentacles tells you that it is possible to be free of your shackles if you would only allow yourself to give in order to receive. If you do not have money, then give of your time, of your effort. The more that you give, the more you are telling the Universe you have and so you will only attract more and more.

The Queen is masterful in building new worlds for herself by nurturing all of the creative centers in life. She is a talented person who is family oriented, of course, being that she is the Queen of the Home and Hearth. She has the wise sense of business around her and is not afraid of hard work, much like the Knight of Pentacles. The benefits of hard work consistently bear fruit. She sometimes can be non-responsive at times, despite her charitable nature as can you, but over all she is capable of being very happy at work or at home. She has a greatness of spirit that is unquenchable.

The Queen of Pentacles in Love

When the Queen of Pentacles appears for you in a reading of love or relationships, you should expect now is a good time to get yourself into a very solid and good, as well as healthy relationship. You have put your time and effort into improving yourself now, and you are feeling comfortable, confident and ready to really put yourself out there. If you are already in a relationship, then this is a time that is going to be very fruitful for you. Do not be surprised if there is a pregnancy or birth of a child, or a time of new events that bring you and your partner great joy. If you are searching for love, know that now is the time for you to be picky, to find the person that exemplifies who you are. Do not waste time on those that you know are not available emotionally or physically because the Queen will allow you to find a long lasting mate.

The Queen of Pentacles in Health

The Queen of Pentacles is representative of the home and the hearth, therefore, if you are feeling health concerns of the spirit, in which you find yourself depressed consistently, and then you must take some time improving the conditions of your home. Clean up the areas that haven’t been cleaned for a while, rearrange even. If you are the type who keeps a good house, then do a house cleansing. The new energy of your home will help you develop a new sense of joy in the mind.

The Queen of Pentacles in Work and Wealth

Now is the time for you to be blessed with a financial abundance that you never thought possible. Even more so than what the Knight of Pentacles has to offer, the Queen tells you that whatever you want will be. All you have to do is remember that it is possible. Your thoughts create your life, pick the good ones.

The image of the Queen of Pentacles in the Rider Waite deck depicts a queen who is comfortably relaxing on her throne with carved heads of goat adorning the arms, behind her there is the abundance of ripe fruit and cupid is at her back. All of these symbols represent abundance in their varying forms. The goat is representative of the harvest of milk to make cheese, the fruit is representative of the abundance of the harvest and the cupid is representative of love in its most enriched period of life. The Queen is surrounded by green fields and there is a rabbit of fertility sitting at her side nearby.

Above her hangs a vine of red roses symbolizing the power she has over her desires. She remains quietly contemplating a pentacle that she holds in her lap. This card is most commonly represented by a woman with black hair and eyes. You are a dependable person, resourceful and you have good instincts and some would say that you are a natural leader. This card is representative of mother and of the provider. You are a channel for practical information.

Reversed Meaning - Queen Of Pentacles

You must accept the fact at this time that you require nurturing relationships in life and get rid of those that are not otherwise you are going to go through a phase where you won’t be able to trust anyone and that is counterproductive to where you need to be right now in your life. When the Queen of Pentacles reversed presents itself, it means that you have the potential to have all that you desire, and getting caught up in the neglectful laziness of those surrounding you will get you nowhere. You will only become nervous and confused. The reversed position of this card points out that right now you are already in the cycle of being mistrustful of others and so you must nip the cycle in the bud before it gets any worse. Trust that you know what to do, and focus all of your energies on the beautiful, healthy energies of the Queen.
