Death - Page of Pentacles - King of Wands

He doesn't think of himself as your husband.

He - Page of Pentacles

doesn't - Death

think of himself as - Page of Pentacles

your husband. - King of Wands

(Yes, sometimes a Tarot card contributes more than one of its meanings to a spread.)

Death in Tarot Verbatim is a negative modifier, a card that cancels the meaning of a card it pairs with. Usually it does so with a 'no' or a 'not,' but sometimes that is a contraction like 'doesn't' which contains the 'not.' Yes, all Tarot Verbatim sees is that that dead man is not, and he doesn't do anything.

Page of Pentacles has two main meanings, and often they come together as a pair: a male pronoun or name with any form or synonym of the verb 'think,' so here he brings us 'He think(s) of himself as.' (Note that 'himself' is a male pronoun: It counts.) The picture shows him thinking about that one thing, the pentacle.

King of Wands is your husband because Queen of Wands is established as the Wife: She sits at home with her cat next to her, an alert-mama look on her face. In one hand she has a big flower; in the other hand she has a big stick. King of Wands is the commoner, the average Joe. He is also the man with a temper, an impulsive and impetuous fellow because of the salamander theme that suggests a 'redhead.' (I have explained that silly notion elsewhere.)

Tomorrow's question is

Doing a lot of work on myself, wanting to know how far I have come.

Nine of Pentacles - World - Queen of Pentacles

You are independent of other people, not influenced by people around you, and taking care of people you are close to.

I asked what karma is this person currently facing right now for how they’ve treated me in the past.
With the 7 of cups I see that perhaps his mind is scattered, paired with judgement I think there’s a choice or a decision that needs to be made(?) but his mind is too clouded. Or judgment could represent the need for him to awaken and snap out of his toxic behaviours, but the devil shows me the toxic cycles are continuing. 10 of wands makes me feel as though he’s carrying a big burden, probably because of legal issues surrounding his actions. 10 of swords I’m not sure what this represents specifically here, I just read it as feeling burnt out or on verge of some kind of break down instead of a ‘break through’ type of thing.
Anyone got their own interpretation?

queria entender por qué se repiten tantos números o elementos con esta persona, mi pregunta fue si nos volveríamos a ver, (para dar contexto es un amor prohibido por eso la última carta)

Hello! I’m just starting with tarots and I’m really confused! may you help me? This is a reading on a boy which is not my boyfriend

first question: what does he feel for me?
second question: what his intentions are?

third question: is he thinking about me lately?( It’s a 9 pentacles behind the 10)

what do you think?

Queen of Pentacles - Seven of Cups - Knight of Swords

She took care of him in all kinds of ways and he turned on her.

She took care of him - Queen of Pentacles

in all kinds of ways - Seven of Cups

and he turned on her. - Knight of Swords

Queen of Pentacles is always the one who took care of him no matter how

outlandish he was. She is the matriarch who keeps the family together, keeps the bills

paid.

Seven of Cups The magician puts his spirits away in a lock box so they can't get loose

and do mischief, but here they are up to mischief in all kinds of ways because the

hired help let them loose.

Knight of Swords often shows up for the direction of turning even though the picture

doesn't support that. He is speeding, in a hurry, rushing, etc. -- fast movements,

always, but the direction of all the hurry is found in the question or in other cards as it

is today when he turns on her.

Ten of Wands - Hierophant - Knight of Swords

Sick and tired of what's supposed to be, headed in the opposite direction.

Sick and tired of - Ten of Wands

what's supposed to be, - Hierophant

headed in the opposite direction. - Knight of Swords

Ten of Wands is about too much, too long, slow going, feeling overwhelmed and

being overloaded when you take on the whole task or project and are sick and tired

of it all. The man in the illustration has too many boards on his back, and that slows

him down.

Hierophant belongs to the theme of what's supposed to be, what's respectable,

harmless, and the usual thing to do in the usual way, expressed through the concept of

the pope, who is doing the ritual he always does with the people he always does it

with.

Knight of Swords depicts fast energetic movement which is easy to see in its picture.

However, the direction of this movement often requires your intuition because that is

determined by the question, the story, and the other cards. Here the question is about

'turning against,' and one of the directions Knight of Swords is famous for is turning

around, going back, reversing course, and even (old-fashioned established meaning for

this card) 'reversal of fortune.' So today we see Knight of Swords headed in the

opposite direction.

Eu fiz essa leitura ontem, mas acho que como estou abalada emocionalmente minhas tiragens estão me deixando instável.

Pelo que entendi, chegou a hora de partir porque há uma frustração que não tem como voltar atrás. Junto com a carta do mundo, encerrando um ciclo de forma natural.

A carta da torre também fica explícita que é necessário sair da ilusão de um local sólido e seguro, que na verdade não existe segurança nenhuma.

Essa não é a leitura completa que fiz ontem, porque deixei meu caderno de anotações em casa.

Wishes for a passionate and happy life but is conflicted and anxious

Wishes for - Wheel of Fortune
A passionate - Ace of Wands
And happy life - Ten of Cups
But is conflicted - Five of Wands
And anxious - Nine of Swords

I recently set a boundary with a person and he went nuts, threw a narcissistic temper tantrum. I know he'll come back (they always come back). So, I asked what is the literal nature of the approach they are planning in the future. I pulled

Page swords - fear

Queen swords - disgruntled, bitch

9 wands - anxious

Ok - it will be fearful, disgruntled and anxious. Great.

Then I asked How should I manage my boundaries moving forward. I pulled

Star - tells all, talks a lot

2 Pentacles - on an ongoing basis

5 cups - regrets, sorrow

I think this is saying that If I let down my boundaries and talk too much (star) on an ongoing basis (2 Pentacles) it will always end in sorrow (5 cups)

So... I'm too friendly?

I think I generally understand the gist of the cards. I would like to get better at putting them into sentences. Any tips?

High Priestess - Hanged Man - King of Pentacles

Yes, she's a lady, and she realizes he is a player, a Studmuffin.

Yes, she's a lady, - High Priestess

and she realizes - Hanged Man

he is a player, a Studmuffin. - King of Pentacles

High Priestess at heart is an esoteric card because the authors of our Rider Waite

Smith deck believe her number, 2, is female and is not active in the physical world or

plane, only receptive here. She is centered on the spiritual or other nonphysical planes.

A lady is not active: She doesn't call him, she doesn't initiate. She waits for the fellow

to make the moves. (Back then anyway.) So watch for High Priestess to show up to say

"Yes, she's a lady."

Hanged Man often simply translates any form of the verb 'realize' because, as you

can see, his head is lit up. He bargained with the gods for 'wisdom,' which always

meant back then extrasensory knowing and spiritual abilities. (Yes, that's the 'wisdom'

King Solomon had going for him.) The deal was if he hung himself on a tree for three

days, and sacrificed a body part to them, he would get those gifts. Three myths

recount this, from different eras and different nations.

King of Pentacles is the stereotype Italian Stallion or Studmuffin: the player, and

the fellow who 'throws his weight around' and flaunts his wealth whether he has any or

not. Watch him show up as sugar-daddy sometimes.

Knight of Swords - Moon - Ace of Pentacles

You get back the lost money.

You get back - Knight of Swords

the lost - Moon

money. - Ace of Pentacles

Knight of Swords represents speed, rush, hurry and fast. Here the question is about a refund, and one of Knight of Swords meanings is to come back, go back, or get back. Refund is getting the money back, so that is what Knight of Swords means here.

Moon was a real location in Greece back then that everyone knew was where the god of the underworld, Hades, had his domain, and where the dragons (yes, the ones on the ancient maps) also made their home at the edge of the flat earth. The two towers were landmarks to the dread place. So if you turn onto the road in the picture, you are lost, never to be seen again. Those towers got into the imagination of the occult as dreadful omens.

Ace of Pentacles is a picture of a heap of gold coins in your hand, so Ace of Pentacles is money.

Tomorrow's question is

How he feels now about the woman he divorced who paid his income tax.

Five of Cups - Five of Swords - Queen of Cups

He is so sorry for abusing the woman who thought so much of him.

Does he like me, has clarity about it and is turning his life upside down for me? Or.......the opposite. Thanks
