Romance, Love Or Relationships:

You may have already taken steps to improve an existing love relationship when this card appears, if so, that’s a good thing. However, more work may be needed if this relationship is to survive. Remember that any relationship takes two; problems are almost never entirely the fault of one party. If you are looking for love, it’s possible that you think that you are more ready for a long term commitment than you actually are. Give this some deep thought. You don’t have to conform to society’s expectations – unless they are truly right for you.

Card Meanings: Surviving Disaster, Being Saved, Courage, Positive Energy, Worst Is Yet To Come, Good Health, Relapse, Things Getting Better, Being Beyond Help, Total Ruin, Pulling Yourself Together, Learning From Past Hardships, Fears Coming True, Over The Worst, Escaping Ruin, Despair, Rising Above Problems/Haters/Bitchiness

As I said in my first examination of this card, the Lord of Ruin is much more about what we invite into our lives with negative and unhelpful thought patterns, than it is about outside events. When we pay close attention to the things we wish ourselves, ensuring that our thoughts are as bright as possible, we attract goodness and positive energy into life. If, on the other hand, we are careless in examining what we think, feel, desire and dream of….allowing ourselves to slide into habits that diminish us, living more by fear than by love…..then we draw bad things into life. The trickiest bit about this positive thinking business is that its effects project into the future…and we are strongly affected by our experience of the present. If things seem to be going wrong, life is heavy and difficult, we tend to have negative reactions to things. Unfortunately, though, having those negative reactions in the present condemns us to further difficulties in the future.

So you can see it is essential to somehow break out of the downward spiral. Positive thinking is a habit. So is negative thinking. And, as with all habits, it can be very awkward to change the pattern. Constant vigilance is required. We need to monitor our thoughts and feelings VERY carefully. And as soon as we discover that we are starting to think dark thoughts we need to pounce, snatching that thought up and determining where it has come from. This applies as much to our deepest inner responses as it does to our responses to external stimuli. Life is always throwing the curve ball at you, just to see if you can catch it. And harmonising yourself with the rhythm of life is – beside being the greatest reward of all – a very big challenge. It does help, though, to try to interpret events in terms of your own reactions……this gives you a good reason to watch yourself carefully in the present. Try this – find something that you currently feel unhappy, frustrated, shocked, hurt about….. Take a good look at the overview of this…..try to separate the differing elements of the problem.

Book Details
Psychic Abilities : Levitation is one of the abilities that many psychics would love to conquer, as it enables a person to physically manifest their abilities. When a person levitates, they raise their bodies off the ground and are able to balance in mid air, almost as though they are flying.

Creative Tarot: How do the individual cards take on specific meanings? If we’re supposed to interpret the images and use our intuition to guide us, all on our own, then why does the Ten of Swords have the same meaning from deck to deck?

Portable Magic: You do not need to understand the formula of Tetragrammaton to work Tarot magic, but you should know that the four elemental court cards that relate in a special way to the letters of the name act to express the nature of their suits with a clarity and force that is greater than that of the other court cards. There is no conflict in their internal natures. The King of Wands is the purity of Fire and the clear expression of Wands, and so for the Queen of Cups and Water, the Knight of Swords and Air, and the Page of Pentacles and Earth.

Psychic Abilities : If you want to consult the cards on a daily basis, you can try a two-word spread. Here you put down both cards face down on a table, with one crossing over the other. Then, you ask a question that you would like to be answered for that day. By pulling out the card that is at the bottom, you will see the main answer to your question. A look at the second card will help you to get additional guidance that will make it possible for you to see the answers that you seek more clearly.
