Blessings and lessons for next week.
Ace of wands, ace of cups, three of swords reversed but before the three of swords came out, it was 9 of cups and 5 of wands and I said NO I SAID ONE CARD ONLY, RESPECT MY BOUNDARIES, CARDS. But, now that I see 3 of s reversed, well, that was probably accurate and I’ll try to remember it.
Let’s talk about these before we talk with clarifications.
So, we asked for blessings and I see BLESSINGS. We have an ace of wands and ace of cups. This would indicate the start of either one thing or two things that are connected, but if it’s one, it’s the start of a new project or relationship where there’s a lot of chemistry or common ground. It could be romantic or platonic if it’s a person, but there seems to be a spark and perhaps even new (strong) emotions or love. If it’s a project and not a person or maybe it’s a project/job/opportunity AND a person so you have multiple blessings. After all, they came out on their own, not clarifying each other. Which yeah makes me think these are two separate blessings.
Like I was saying, if it’s a project or situation (not person), it seems like it’ll be really inspiring, possibly super creative, you’ll feel excited and passionate about it; same, if it’s a person. Or, you get a project and a (new) person coming in - if it’s not a new person, it could also be an old relationship/friendship that gets a fresh start or a fresh new feeling to it. Especially with three of swords reversed, that can indicate a reconnection, but it can also be like these things are coming in (and they are new) to kind of clear out the air of a former negative relationship or situation. My gut tells me the three of swords is probably the lesson, though, especially with those oracles of walk away and marriage. I saw the 8 of cups so many times while shuffling the deck, and I ended up coming out as a clarifier with the other deck. I... read this as something leaving or has left, probably a person, but something NEW is coming in that’s BETTER.
With those oracle cards you can read it (not literally unless you are getting married haha), but either as walking away from a relationship or walking away leads you to a new relationship - or even both. Three of swords reversed - for me - also comes out A LOT during mercury retrograde, so it may be for sure that someone/something from your past has made/is making an appearance so that you can let it go. Unless it’s someone you WANT to reconnect with, or it can be something like an old job you used to have and you get offered another (new) position there. Four of pentacles/three of wands (reversed?) was at the back after flipping out your last card, so... there’s a sense of holding/pausing and then three of wands reversed could indicate a lack of progress and six of cups shows past or family, or... like we mentioned, someone from your past - childhood friend, ex, etc... take what resonates, ofc. Let’s look at clarifiers though.
So, ace of wands clarified by ace of pentacles. This would definitely indicate a new (tangible) opportunity coming in, be it a relationship, job, project, financial opportunity, but it seems to be a creative one, exciting one.
Ace of cups clarified by Emperor. I mean, my first thought would be the new person could be an Aries or have a strong Aries placement or Aries moon - it could also be that these two aces are connected, and Emperor might indicate this is definitely about work/career. So... if you have applied or are applying for or you are aware of anything that could come up involving something new regarding career, then yeah I see you receiving that offer.
I am inclined to feel it’s just that the two aces (well three now) are all related to work/career/studies - not a person, but who knows, if you meet an Aries this week, let me know.
In regard to three of swords reversed being clarified by 8 of cups, 5 of wands, King of Swords (which I want to clarify the king), but... obviously there’s some sort of conflict here, the solution seems to be the 8 of cups, which is walking away to something better. It could be that there’s a miscommunication or lack of communication. As if maybe you have been expecting to hear from someone or they said something that hurt you - and I feel it’s better to just... walk away, or handle it with a clear head, don’t have an emotional reaction, don’t - do anything. Maybe this happens and you’ll want to snap back or they’re trying to provoke you, if that happens next week - don’t even respond, just walk away. Even if this thing hurts or is disappointing. And if all three cards are connected... well... I don’t really see the opportunities being ones that don’t go through or are missed. I read this more as the three of swords situation... is coming to a conclusion, you’re walking away from whatever THAT is, and these new aces are coming in.
If a person isn’t involved at all it could have been a previous disappointment with the job or situation... and you’ll just have to move on, move past it... because something new is going to be offered. Emperor can also be a boss, father, authority figure, just throwing that out. But, uh, I doubt you’re going to fall in love with your boss and it’s unlikely you’re reconnecting with a father figure.
Let me take another glance to see what I pick up intuitively (I always like read on the spot as I’m looking at each of your photos).
Looking at the back of deck, there is something to do with the past - almost like the first or latter half of the week, there’s some sentimental moment of holding onto something and then releasing it to move forward. And, to be more specific, it’s moving toward a goal or wish. So it’s like a good week to “move on”. Almost like one door is/already did close and it made room for WAY better things, like two aces in one week?? And it’s clear it’s a solid/tangible opportunity? Something you can touch and see?? And it looks like you can mend your heart a little bit this week by having some type of closure on a situation??
Also, in case you can’t read it that walk away oracle says “Leave the unhealthy situation, and enjoy the new doors that open as a result.” Like that LITERALLY is what the tarot are saying??? As for marriage, it says “the fairies join you in celebrating wedded bliss.” I mean, it doesn’t have to be literal, it sort of reminds me of four of wands, so there’s celebration - the Emperor is a 4 card, too, so 4 may be significant next week, but it also emphasizes stability, structure, discipline, or even homelife. I would think it IS possible that something romantic could happen, but let’s leave it at there will be reason to celebrate here.
But, also I feel these blessings coming in are going to create stability for you. If it’s a job opportunity, it’s going to be like oh yes, I feel like I’m getting somewhere - or if it’s a romantic encounter, it’s... going to feel like it can be something solid.
Like I said, though it could also be the opposite where you’re meant to walk away or move on from a relationship, as well. It’s whatever fits your current situation. however, my gut feel is more that... once you walk away, the four of wands-ish situation is the blessing... intuitively just from the oracles, it looks like walk away girl will have a spiritual upgrade/transformation in choosing the healthier/better path and then that will lead to her (in theory or symbolically) meeting this other person (or a situation or friend), who is on the same wavelength/frequency, and they’ll also have these other friends around watching, there to celebrate and they also have wings, there’s a feeling of a “family” or a large celebration. It could also have a two of cups vibe here, where yeah you meet someone new who’s super compatible and you work together really well or get along really well, it almost looks like a community so it could be if you go to school or start a new job (don’t know how old you are) or it’s an online community, I see you making a new friend next week or reconnecting with someone you haven’t seen in ages but are excited to see. I also want to say since walk away looks yellow and that’s solar plexus, I feel like this choice to move forward creates a sense of empowerment - and then the marriage card is kind of reddish-purple? I don’t know it’s dark in my room rn, but red is root chakra and often indicates grounding/stability (like 4s), but if it’s got some purple, it can also indicate crown, which is our most spiritual chakra (well 3rd eye also is too) but it could indicate you (and this person) sharking a bit of a “spiritual” connection, which could read as literally you’re both into spirituality and you meet bc it’s a common interest or you have chemistry - or both.
Back to tarot, so... there’s probably something of interest to say regarding the ace of pentacles clarifying the ace of wands - bc that back of deck earlier had a four of pentacles and I’m seeing that center pentacle he’s holding in his lap as this same pentacle, I also look at the star and think of the star or nine of cups, so this thing being offered to you, imo, is related to... a wish/goal/dream - if you have been wanting some particular job or a relationship, this offer feels related to whatever you’ve been wishing for so I’d say a relationship or a creative-job opportunity or at least a job/career/study thing that you feel psyched about.
Bc it’s emperor I do feel more this is related to a career thing but sure - aries energy here. Emperor sitting under the watery ace of cups does want me to throw out an Aries moon - granted I’m pretty sure next full moon is in Aries?? So, perhaps by the next full moon these blessings will come about by then (if they don’t come exactly next week). An aries moon person could be involved - doesn’t matter, but really I see as the emperor not just possibly standing for career but this (ace of cups/love/passion - whatever) will be incredibly stable/reliable/grounded. If it were a relationship, I’d say in the past maybe your people were wishy washy and unreliable, but this new person-thing will be ... the real deal, very sturdy and solid (also look up the aries moon anyway in terms of characteristics as perhaps there’s a message in that for you.
So, so far we have... a new something coming in, possibly job, probably job or solid opportunity, it’s... likely to involve creativity or at least there’s a lot of excitement (from you) regarding this, it’s about a goal/wish, it will be extreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeemely SOLID of an offer, so if you have any doubts at any point, it’s meant to be solid. Like, whatever you let go of made room for something way better. Like the three little pigs how you go from straw to wood to brick, this is like BRICK HOUSE. like the song, but different meaning. If it’s a person, then woooooh you can defo count on them they would have this masculine energy to them (but maybe that’s their aries moon >.>), perhaps big and buff and very... masculine physically, too.
Anyway it’s clear the universe wants you to have something and it’s going to be hella good and cool and it’s not going to crumble.
Or like I wouldn’t be surprised if you were up for promotion possibly? Or some type of upgrade in that way, raise, whatever you’re doing now - yeah, you’re going to get that thing - by the next full moon >.> this might come after as full moons are about releasing things... so you may have to release this thing yet and then after full moon, your new aces come in as the blessings. i want to say this full moon is... oct 20th? but i don’t remember.
another message of the ace of cups/emperor combo could be just that... if you are working toward a goal, some discipline and organization will be involved/required.
so back to the last part. the king of swords, i clarified and got page of pentacles, lol so again this is about another new opportunity or the start of a path that has to do with a tangible situation of some sort... i did kind of ask for them to come in as like “start of week mid week end of week” so it’s possible that... if they’re all connected, you get word of this new opportunity at the start to mid week... page of pentacles usually indicates the beginning stages of taking on that task or position so maybe this thing makes progress this week... and regarding that progress... it could be a bumpy start. i mean if you were starting a new job next week, and you were like how will it go well... it might be bumpy but like it’s still better than whatever was happening before, you may have some conflict with others if these are coworkers or peers or friends... I would GUESS that the conflict would revolve around a miscommunication or words here, so to keep your cool and not have any sort of emotional reaction and IF something is miscommunicated on your end or the other person’s, to make sure you are very direct and clear. So maybe that will resonate with this opportunity or start... and that’s going to be the lesson but... I have no idea what the exact situation is you’re going to go through. it could also be that the specific conflict could involve someone who is an air sign and if it were connected to the emperor, perhaps a boss or supervisor/instructor (who would be an air sign) but mostly I just see all this as some sort of miscommunication issue.
So yeah I guess without knowing ANYTHING ABOUT ANYTHING, it reads like someone starting a new job, they’re excited, there’s a little bit of a bumpy thing going into it toward the end of the week, but keep a level head, keep cool, make sure communication is open and clear, especially during merc retro. And the full moon in aries could be significant or will be when you receive word about this job/whatever opportunity the universe wants you to have...
what else can i offer... well you had 113 as your numbers so you can look up that spirit number/angel number. on the bottom was 1 4 8 5. i kept saying creative, but really when i look at the emperor, he makes me think of a business man and he’s behind a desk, so maybe you have more of a desk-job thing or it could indicate going BACK to a physical workplace or college after not having been for a time... i guess if you tell me more details we can get specific, but... i guess you know already ha. what’s also kinda interesting is the (moon?) in the 8 of cups and the pentacle in ace of pentacles, page of pentacles...
i would read some of this as someone who is very... i don’t want to say single minded but this makes me think of you as someone very goal-focused, particularly about career/money... aces can throw you off bc ace of wands and ace of cups are often the creative/emotional/passionate aces but sometimes the cards just love throwing out aces to show opportunities and we asked about blessings, so ofc the tarot threw out all the aces. only thing we didn’t get was ace of swords, but that’s bc, well, you seem to already have clarity? a goal in mind? eyes on the prize of something you feel pretty... i don’t want to say excited, i want to say driven and that drive is fueled by a lot of things - emotion, passion, whatever... and the goal seems to be about elevation of status, promotions, uhh reputation... i would think this is about a business job or more intellectual type of job whether it was medicine or a more earth-sign type of career... but even if it’s creative there’s still something SOLID about it if you were a creative i’d still think it’s a creative job WITHIN a business-business, like someone who does graphic design for... a bank. someone who does writing... for an insurance company. someone who sings... but on a cruise ship. but nah i don’t see you as a creative... i feel like you’re the emperor or king of swords here probably so very cool-headed, logic-minded, disciplined, really good at handling conflict, being a good communicator, having leadership skills, being highly responsible not because you HAVE TO BE but you kinda like it. like you’d enjoy being in charge, you’d make a good manager imo.
that may be wrong who knows but that’s what it reads like and like i said this new thing is coming it’s an upgrade, it’s solid offer(s). if it starts next week or when it starts, there may be the tiniest of hiccups or if you’re applying for something there may be some competition. or i recommend clear communication if anything wonky comes up, taking the more logic-minded or clear-headed approach to whatever conflicts arise - not emotional ones.
i just feel like discipline and structure is the answer here, not like emotional woowoo free spirit la la la, this is... solid stuff. solid path, that requires one to also be solid or you are already this solid, responsible, disciplined, goal oriented type person. that or i described a person coming in but nah dun think so.
and also full moon in aries is significant timing for all this too... oct 20. expect these things by then/around then/before then/just after.
feeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeel free to leave feedback so we can have a convo - you can uhh well i don’t have my asks on but i could turn them on but you can comment here or contact me through my messages if you want to chat. i’d be curious to know what’s going on or what happens next week or if oct 20ish seems significant to anything... but ya got some stuff coming that’s new for sure, so that’s great!!!
ALSO I SAW YOU LIKE NARUTO SO PLEASE ENJOY THESE NARUTO DOODLES AN EX-FRIEND FORMER SOULMATE DID FOR ME.
i will explain. so we used to RP as naruto and sasuke and this was for an AU we created, so you see nerdy sasuke there and teacher nardo. they’re in japan and naruto teaches english but he’s american and sasuke is a native and he works in a bookstore. deidara is holding itachi!cat. sakura is there, gaara is there...
i thought you’d like that so there’s your first blessing, lol. oh the little ones orbiting naruto are kiba and his sister hana bc naruto and hana used to date but they broke up before he moved to japan, and then he befriends sasuke, etc, so forth... it was a really cute au/rp at the time. have a good next week, yo.
oh btw if i were to have kept that 9 of cups plus five of wands in regard to 3 of swords... that would make me think of some type of conflict or competition surrounding your goal/wish... it could be that perhaps there was a disappointment that got in the way of your goal... and you had to reroute and now these new opportunities are coming in? it wouldn’t make a whole lot of sense to say you’re given these opportunities and then they’re taken away or blocked? so either i’d associate that five of wands with a past obstacle or a tiny obstacle - like i said - that occurs AFTER you’ve started but like the very beginning which is why i saw it as starting a job but a couple of minor conflicts or bumpy points in a first week that involve... learning (which is king of swords) or communication (also king of swords) or yeah he’s a good decision maker... but since three of swords was there, i often read this as miscommunications... hence the suggestion of clear communication and also a cool head or logical/intellectual approach to any glitches/bumps/misunderstandings. it could be that like... a machine breaks or something, specifically like a fax or phone line going down at your job and you have to handle that/fix it. that sort of thing. giving a powerpoint presentation but the program won’t open, technical glitches, etc... or communication, yes. be wary of that during merc retro.
