Reading of the Week

This is a variation on the Elemental spread, using the Druid Craft Tarot.  This deck has gorgeous imagery.  It's very Celtic.  The only reason that I don't use it more is that the cards are large and more of a challenge to shuffle :-)

 

This reading is read with the group of five cards on the left first followed by the group of three cards on the bottom right.  The three card group is read as a progression or a cohesive unit.

 Central Card, Core of the Reading: 2 Wands.  This week is about making choices.  You have the potential to go in several different directions right now.  You may be confused or feeling indecisive.

Top card, Earth: 4 Pentacles.  Your finances are under tight control this week.  You have taken steps to get your finances and your home affairs in order, mostly by reining things in quite a bit.  This is a card of stasis - things are very stable in this area this week.

Right card, Air: Prince of Cups (rev).  This card, when upright, is a card of travel and swift change.  Here it is reversed - stagnation and difficulty in getting your goals accomplished.  This week you are going to have some trouble getting through to people.  You will also find planning things to be unnecessarily difficult.  If you have to travel anywhere, give yourself extra time.  You may find yourself encountering unexpected (and annoying) delays.

Bottom card, Fire: 4 Cups (rev).  You may find your creative side is stimulated this week.  You will probably start hearing news about endeavours, job changes or promotions, too.  You may have felt like nothing was working for you, unhappy and dissatisfied.  This is going to start changing and shifting.  Good things are coming!

Left card, Water: Prince of Pentacles (rev).  In matters of the heart and/or family matters things may go very slowly this week.  If you are waiting for news from a loved one, don't hold your breath.  The Prince is a stolid, slow moving creature in general, in reversal he is a positive stick in the mud.  Expect stubbornness and refusal to admit that things need to be dealt with this week.  

Three card grouping: 10 Swords (rev), The Sun, Ace of Cups.  The beginning of the week might be very difficult.  You have come to a place where the issues you have struggled with recently are fruitless and you must simply move on, at least for now...however, if you can do that, the rest of the week will be very positive!  In both public and emotional matters there is great positive potential this week if you can clear out the dead wood in your mind and move forward.  It won't be easy to accomplish, but it will be worthwhile!

This week has a lot of ups and downs to it.  Ride the flow and don't get caught and you'll do just fine.

Blessings,

Victoria
