Happy post engagement surprise free individual reading.
How will your next romantic partner treat you?
Person's personality so that you can know which person this would be even though it should be the next person, but hey it's always nice to be able to single them out :)
Prince: Romantic charm and potential for power Student: Humility and devotion to knowledge. Openness to lifelong learning.
They seem young, highly intelligent, good communication, a literal student or someone who's always open to learning. Romantic, generous, perhaps someone with ambition or an interest in politics or another way to service their community, charisma. As a vibe, it feels like someone intellectually ambitious, as in someone who'd be studying law or politics, potentially medicine, but I'm pulled more toward law/history/politics. Reads a lot. I think would have the potential to be very charming and woo someone with how knowledgable they seem, good with their words. I think very verbally charming.
I'm sure there are other ways to interpret this, I even left not for you flipped which means you read the protection message, but no matter what it is a card that means what it says - as in, it's possible this relationship will only be temporary - that's ONE way to read it.
By the book is a card all about living within... the rules basically. You do things by the book.
So, here are some interpretations for this combo: This person, you may find, though charming and smart, might play things too "by the book" for you, so if someone who's kind of into rules and regulations and following cultural norms is a turn off... that could be why this is temporary. Another way to interpret is... this is a person who "going by the book" isn't their style and maybe they think out of the box, or even that something about this person or this relationship will be out of the ordinary compared to... what the rest of people in your country/culture/religion/family may do? Like, for example, say you have a "conservative" cultural background, and it's expected for the woman in a relationship to help the in-laws with certain events (I'm thinking of a Korean drama I just watched where she had to help her in laws with ancestral rites which basically just meant washing everyone's dishes and making food and domestic labor) - and later on in the show, they decided to basically have a marriageless marriage. So, it could just be this person might be intellectually progressive and the relationship or them is a bit... unexpected.
Those are the two interpretations I can come up with - temporary bc they're too rigid or... just... different than the ordinary relationship you're used to or is expected by some external folks.
If you're at the age of studying, perhaps you'd meet them through school or some type of class or, at the very least, this person seems to be studying or learning something.... intuitively the external folks are most likely to be yours or their family. Because those elephants in by the book look like a little family. It could also be that this person is a writer or does something with books or perhaps the whole family has always worked in education or takes education very seriously. Or the "education" as in the "rules" this person lives by (socially) have been created by their family (as in customs and tradition).
Okay, so this will be advice about the relationship or something about the lesson/story: Choose Love, "You always have choice - make yours with love."
I'll type out this paragraph bc it's kinda vibing with what I just said: This card relates to your perception of your world. Do you blame your environment for what is going on in your life? This culpability could include your fate, your belief system, your life experiences, or your parents. Regardless of what has or will go on in your life, you always have choice. It may not be easy but choosing to love and be loving is your best option. You are in control of how you feel. It kind of has a six of cups vibe, but it's mostly about... instead of holding onto anything negative, remember things with love. Maybe it's like focusing on the good things? Gratitude even? We'll see how this may play in later maybe.
Then, I drew a few extra messages from that fairy oracle, so it's fun you said love or career and you got both cards D:
Love life - "the question you asked about is about your love life (haha) which is now changing for the better"
New career - "your work focus is shifting in a positive, new, and successful direction"
Get some exercise - "as your body becomes stronger you begin to feel stronger in all ways"
maybe that's an extra note if you're exercising or getting healthier in terms of diet or if you need to relieve stress, etc... the others were bang on, so might be worth looking into. she looks like she's swimming or skiing or maybe it's a yoga pose, i dunno how that looks like exercise but yeah.
okay now let's talk about the tarot and then we'll do a whole how will they treat you based on the full picture.
according to the tarot
what one card represents this person: 3 of cups. it's possible they will come from your friend circle, or at the very least someone within your community. as in someone in your school, someone at your religious institution of preferred practice. they seem to be a social person, maybe even someone who likes to party or drink, but it's really just a card about socializing with friends and having fun, celebration. i would guess they make for a good and fun friend. they could be a water sign but then i do have a whole stack of three sword cards that fell out later. not to say they can't be a water-air combo.
how do they feel about you or what are they attracted to about you: chariot. i also clarified just to see what's going on. 3 of cups clarified by knight of cups, so back to that "prince" and "charming" type of person. maybe idealistic, but at least charming or romantic, sensitive. it does seem like they're the one who will approach with an offer, and i still think it could be connected to your community/friend network, so they may be someone you know as opposed to someone you meet later. and likely they're... a friend or you're friends at present. possibly. don't quote me. that's just what it looks like.
so what they like about you. the chariot on its own is focus, ambition, control. what's interesting is it was clarified by five of wands, high priestess, and emperor. and so it makes me think that what they find attractive in you could be that they see you as the high priestess and see themselves as an emperor type. so, what they like about you is that you're cool under pressure, intelligent, they like that spiritual side of you. it could also be that they find you to be in balance of both that fem/masc divine energy. it could also be like... idk if you'd be in the same course or something but it's possible that if you two were fellow students or coworkers that they admire you in that setting and could even see you as like a... competitor, lol. but mostly i just see this as since the emperor and priestess are very calm and in control of their emotions and their surroundings that they like that and those are two people who would squash any five of wands petty conflicts. like maybe they see you as spiritually unbothered. it's interesting too that there's emphasis on moon here with the cancer card in the chariot and then high priestess.. maybe someone has a moon in aries or something... or maybe that opposite of by the book is what they like about you. maybe some aspect of your spiritual interests is interesting to them. both of these characters also have a lot of power. i mean, for me, this is more of a power couple than the empress and emperor. i love the empress but imagine a high priestess (makes me think of elizabeth I) and then idk a nonshitty emperor... the high priestess has that more pure or virginal vibe too so i will say this feels a bit conservative in energy... like someone who would admire a partner who's... dutiful or... respectable... they aren't... really looking for a free spirit. they want someone respectful and i'm getting very just... maybe they are kinda wanting a traditional partner. but they clearly see you as powerful and spiritual and a good match intellectually. like maybe the five of wands is witty teasing banter. like you could go tit for tat with this person. like if they say something smartass and you come back with an equally great quip. or let's say it in a weird way like if this person has actual political ambitions... then maybe they see you as a potential future partner to those future goals or life ambitions? like a good match for that.
so i would imagine they'd treat you rather respectfully. it's a weird thing to say but maybe in their head they visualize it as you'd be someone they'd want to go into battle with. maybe there's also something significant about a fourth house placement since that's cancer's house. cancer also corresponds to home and family so again i feel like there's something about traditional or family customs that's important to them or this relationship.
so then i straight up asked - how will they treat you and got knight of swords, then queen of swords, and ace of swords, lol.
there is something very direct about this person. i don't think they bullshit around about anything. they're very straight-forward and probably honest. conversation is going to be super important. it might be that they see you as someone on their level because i keep feeling like they want to treat you as an equal and perhaps if - again - something about your customs or family are traditional, maybe it's unusual for an equal relationship in some sense? idk. i think once someone has decided to progress the relationship, this person will move very fast to give their answer, they're extremely decisive, they seem to want to rush in and give you an offer (a verbal one) that's very clear and there's no room for confusion. it also seems just looking at those sword cards and the order, the knight is rushing in to give you this sword, the queen now holds that sword, and then we see the sword which represents truth or communication or knowledge so it's like they pass some type of truth or words on to you. now to summarize based on everything here, i will take a stab (haha see what i did there) at how a person like this would treat you.
this person's mind is very sharp and there's a lot of forward motion to how they think. there are air signs that are definitely very analytical bc that's what air signs do, but this person is... pretty intense. they aren't indecisive like a libra, they aren't... anxious like a gemini, so if i chose any air sign it's aquarius but i don't really sense that. maybe it's that their mercury is in some air sign but it doesn't matter. also choose love is interesting as a card since swords are all about decisions and making choices and being decisive about choices.
it also makes me feel that at some point, they will leave the choice up to you in some way so that choose love message may be for you bc the knight's sword is theirs... they give it to you so ultimately they leave you with a choice about... something... and maybe somehow that's unusual? it could also be symbolic of giving you something... like.. a book... knowledge... a new way to see things... new perspectives, enlightenment.
they seem to want to... i don't want to say sway you, but imagine this person coming by and you're on the side of a highway in the desert or it doesn't matter where but it's not a busy place and you're not in dire straits but maybe yeah kinda... and this person comes by on a motorcycle, and they stop to see if you want a ride but the ride they want to take you on is to go... anywhere... but you also... have to go in their direction. and they're only going to give you five minutes to decide. do you want to stay or do you want to go (with me).
i'm trying to show that this person's very... on a path toward something and IF you hesitate about being with them or going in their direction, they will give you that choice... but they aren't going to stick around forever. they're very WHOOOSH in and out - they are going somewhere. they have a goal, they are seeing themselves at a certain point in the future and maybe they have a plan for their life so you'll have to decide if that's a plan you're interested in. this feels like IF this happens it'll be later on in the relationship... and it's like ok i'm headed this way are you coming with or nah. and so they give you the sword.
so more about how they treat you - like an intellectual equal, like a human being instead of an object. they want to get to know you and learn about you, they want to talk to you a lot. they seem very curious about things in life in general so they're going to be curious about you, but i also see them as quite chatty. they study hard. they might have difficult classes or a tough or powerful position in a job. it might center around someone who has to make decisions pretty frequently. but they are still charming and romantic, so they might have a way with words. maybe they write you poetry or there's something very charming and beautiful and poetic about the way they speak. i don't feel like they treat you with kid gloves or like you're a dainty flower...they treat you like a friend and equal. there's cards here indicating they really could end up in some type of important position of power. i'm drawn to law and government mostly. or if there's a religious cleric. that's a thing right. no it feels more pursuit of knowledge, although obvs there's religious knowledge but... more legal/government... yeah.
there might be a certain level of detachment though... like they sort of also put you on a pedestal or something? or idolize you in some way? i don't want to say treat you like a king/queen but... kinda. but how you would expect them to treat the high priestess... even if they're charming, you'd show the empress this sort of more... obvious visceral love and affection but how would you show that to the high priestess? it's more... contained... respectful.... it's not as showy.
so there may be something reserved about their affections or maybe they're more affectionate in private than in public, but if that's so, it has something to do with "respect" and how they perceive or view you as their partner or in that role... it feels cultural. idk. like it reminds me of how i'd expect a muslim man to treat his wife when they're out in public... and maybe she's wearing a hijab so there's that respectful cultural... respectful distance. is that the word i want idk. bc it does seem they place you on a spiritual pedestal. ?
i don't know if that applies but that's the visual.
how will they treat you? very... respectfully. lol i cannot get away from that word... they treat you... by the book as would be expected of a person in their position to treat you... i think. no matter what the background it'd be like if a person was raised a very strict way to treat a partner within those principles that their... upbringing or family taught them to treat a partner. almost as if they're copying how they've seen their parents treat each other maybe.
have you ever seen coming to america? and they have that whole ceremony and going through the motions of how the bride/groom should treat each other... it's like that haha. so like... formal or... how you'd expect a prince courting a princess from another kingdom. there are... rituals and... steps... rules....
but anyway as i said, they seem to be coming to you to offer something and the decision is up to you... but i will say they keep coming up as a prince/knight but how they're seeing you is... high priestess, emperor, queen of swords... maybe they're younger or maybe you somehow have a higher status or like i said they just have mentally put you on pedestal in some way. i also feel like they have this sort of romantic notion of going to battle for you or trying to earn your respect... like imagine a knight trying to impress his queen. maybe there's also a bit of puppy energy to this person, running around trying to please you or impress you. maybe you'll find it endearing or flattering or... but i think they'll always be honest with you at least. and i really do think that you'll be friends as well as partners. which is really what you want in a partnership, someone you can talk to about anything and everything. if you lie in bed together and talk all the way until you're ready for bed. about big ideas or about details of your day.... maybe they are aquarius... like an aquarius cancer thingy person.
even in the fairy oracles... like you're presented as a "queen" regardless of gender here and the love life especially the girl is seated on the flower and the boy is coming as if trying to see what this girl needs... as if she's the queen on the throne again and he's the knight there to fetch whatever and make sure she's comfortable...
so it's not that even if they're traditional or conservative that they're very like domineering... i feel like they're more inclined to be whipped and do your bidding even if they're still more stoic in public.
it would make sense that if you were younger and college age-ish that this person could be a year or two younger or just have that puppy energy to them.... but i still see them as a good friend and an equal, too, even if they're younger.
so.... that's probably enough insight into how you'd be treated... if you want to be pampered, i'd say they're up for that since this knight went to wherever to bring you this sword like you're princess zelda or something... your next person is basically Link.
