Romance, Love Or Relationships

A very common modern use of the tarot is to help clarify issues that are on your mind. The most common areas of concern by far are love, relationships and romance. What’s in the cards for your love life? Everyone likes to know where their love lives are going, what will happen to their romantic relationships, and if they will be happy. In a Love Tarot Reading, the major arcana, associated with major influences and events in your life, often play the most important role. Aces in a love reading indicate new beginnings.

Directing your love reading to another: Think of a person you love. Next think of a person for whom you have no strong feelings. And then also think of a person who challenges you, or you have difficulty with, or cannot easily get on with. As you think of these people direct your words thoughts towards each in turn. Visualise energy flowing to the person you are contemplating.

Timing: When looking for time sensitive answers, Cups generally means moderately slow, usually weeks to months.

Reversed

The Original Rider Waite Tarot Deck is the most popular and widely used tarot card deck in the world, printed from plates that were destroyed during the bombing of London during World War II. Full of symbolism and deeper meanings, Arthur E. Waite, the intellectual father of the Rider Waite deck, commented that ‘the true Tarot is symbolism; it speaks no other language and offers no other signs.’

If a Cups card appears in you reading, heres what you need to know:

The Suit of Cups deals with the emotional level of consciousness and is associated with love, feelings, relationships and connections. Cups are about displays of emotion, expression of feelings and the role of emotions in relation to others. The Cups Tarot cards indicate that you are thinking with your heart rather than your head, and thus reflect your spontaneous responses and your habitual reactions to situations. Cups are also linked to creativity, romanticism, fantasy and imagination. The negative aspects of the Suit of Cups (i.e. when the Cups cards appear reversed) include being overly emotional or completely disengaged and dispassionate, having unrealistic expectations and fantasising about what could be. There may be repressed emotions, an inability to truly express oneself and a lack of creativity. The Suit of Cups traditionally represents the west and autumn. If using an ordinary deck of playing cards, Cups are represented by the Suit of Hearts.

Love, emotions, relationships, feelings, empathy, intuition, creativity, peacefulness.

Timing: When looking for time sensitive answers, Cups generally means moderately slow, usually weeks to months.

Here are some short extracts from my favorite books to give you a feel for the book.

Complete Book of Tarot: before we can address the question of where the tarot originated, we must clarify what we mean by the tarot. The Oxford Dictionary gives the following definition of tarot: ‘playing cards, traditionally a pack of 78 with five suits, used for fortune-telling and (especially in Europe) in certain games. The suits are typically swords, cups, coins (or pentacles), batons (or wands), and a permanent suit of trump.’2 We will examine this definition more carefully in the next chapter. For now, let’s focus on where these seventy-eight cards came from.

Elements of the Psychic World: Lincoln’s beloved son Willie died in 1862 from scarlet fever and both Lincoln and his wife, Mary Todd (who was also committed to the spiritualist

Elements of the Psychic World: Modern interest in the concept of the psychomanteum was triggered by Dr Raymond Moody, who coined the term near-death experience. Moody first became interested in mirror gazing in the late 1980s and began to investigate ancient oracular practices and folklore about mirrors as portals to other dimensions. He eventually came to the conclusion that a mirror could be of benefit to those grieving the loss of loved ones, as the mirror, as a portal to the otherworld, could help bring closure. As he continued to research he considered the visions in a mirror to be more than imagery as they could take a person into the middle realm – another dimension, similar to dreams, which mediates between the physical realm and other realms.
