A Reading for Blue

My friend on Aeclectic Tarot Forum (tarotforum.net) asked me for a reading and was kind enough to let me post it here.  So here we go!

 

Blue asks what the future has in store for her regarding meeting a husband and having children.

 

I used the cards method again, this time using the minors of my trimmed pocket Thoth.  I don’t think I explained in the previous reading how I drew the cards.  I shuffled, drew them from the top of the deck, and laid them out in a Saturn magic square:

 

4--9--2

3--5--7

8--1--6

 

(I’m trying to formulate a spread using the magic square and haven’t figured it out yet, so I thought this is as good a place as any to use it!)  As in the previous reading, I will only read the cards on which a stone lands.

 

 

This looks like it needs to be read bottom to top.

 

6-Lovers-Rhodochrosite on Prince of Cups.  This looks promising for a love and marriage question!  The Prince, a confirmed romantic, may be just the guy you’re looking for.  And with Lovers, it looks like you might just find him!  The stone version of Lovers points especially to marriage because the concept behind it is that the pink and white are joined beautifully into one lovely stone. 

 

15-Devil-Hematite on 5 of Cups.  As soon as I saw the stone land, this flashed into my mind:  You will be tempted (Devil) to give up (5 of Cups).  The cups look like they’ve been waiting a long time, so long the flowers are dropping their petals.  The leaves are even the same grey as the hematite.  But I think the answer to this temptation is in the final pair:

 

18-Moon-Mother of Pearl on Ace of Swords.  The Moon landed right on the crown at the point of the sword.  Beautiful!  The Ace of Swords is the card of inspiration and great new ideas.  In the Thoth, it is also the card of personal will.  Inscribed on the blade is the word “Thelema,” meaning Will.  Paired with the Moon, it is saying you will receive a powerful intuitive perception of your future mate.  You should trust that intuition, realize that it is a strength, and follow it with your will.  The Moon stone isn’t really out of place on this seeming very masculine and airy card:  Notice that the hand guard part of the hilt is made of two moon crescents and two moon(?) spheres.  That just emphasizes that your mind and intuition are going to work together seamlessly to give you a new (Ace) way of looking at your desires and ideas of how to pursue them.

 

Wow!  So, in summary, don’t give up on your dream of a husband and family.  Trust your intuition and dreams and follow them with assurance.  A romantic partner who is good marriage material may be just around the corner!

 

I’m glad this has turned out to be a hopeful, upbeat reading.  (I was a little doubtful when all those swords cards showed up!)  Thank you for letting me read for you and for letting me post the reading.  I hope all turns out well for you!
