I’m not a medium, not usually, anyway. But once in a while, when doing a tarot reading, the dead come through. A few of these occasions have been like a small footnote to the whole process and the tarot session itself; but there have been several times that were quite profound and memorable, either to me, or to my client, or both.
Once such case involved the four of pentacles. I was using the Rider/Waite deck, and the imagery on this card is that of a male figure with both feet firmly planted on his gold coins, and his arms wrapped protectively around two more coins. The common interpretation for the four of pentacles is The Miser, that penny-pinching individual who refuses to part with his money.
As some of you know, I read using the intuitive method, which basically means that I simply allow my sub-conscious to run amok and pick up, see, or feel anything that the images on a tarot card might spontaneously trigger. Needless to say, most interpretations brought up this way have absolutely nothing to do with the traditional meaning of a card. These flashes of insight, visions, feelings, and such are often way out in left field, and sometimes the only one who can really make sense of them is my client.
That was the case this day:
As I was staring at the figure on this card, the four of pentacles, the entity of an old man was suddenly very present (in my mind and around us). I kept talking and staring and talking and staring intently at the card: “Oh, my.” I said, overwhelmed by the feelings. “His hands are curled up tight in a fist.” And as I said this I was grimacing and clenching my own fists, drawing my hands up to my chest. “Oooh, it’s icky!” I said, still grimacing, overwhelmed at the emotions and sensations. It was awful.
The woman stopped me, sort of abruptly. I think she was concerned for me.
“Wait,” she said, “I have to tell you…”
And then she went on to explain that her father-in-law had recently passed away and had left her and her husband what amounted to a small fortune, a life-changing amount of money. But that wasn’t all. When he died, she told me, he was frightened, and he was in pain, and he was fighting the death process with all his might. It was terrible to watch.
“He curled his hands up to his chest, clenching them into tight fists.” she said, staring straight into my eyes, wanting me to understand.
I looked down at the male figure on the four of pentacles tarot card, and I knew that what I was really looking at was this woman’s father-in-law.
Tarot Reading 3 Card Spread Deck: The Psychic Tarot 11-7-2014
For Lesley:
Deception & Envy…The Waiting Game…Love Begins
The first thing I’m going to point out is that all of these cards came in Reversed. Sometimes this is signifigant and, because of the way I read (my method), sometimes it’s not. If the universe is trying to make a point by reversing a card, it will let me know.
Oh my, the first card– Deception & Envy— This is such a powerful card, and it makes a terrific point. The thing is, sometimes You are going to be the only one who understands just how significant this is. With deception, there’s going to be a big reveal coming up. If someone has been deceivng you, you’re in for the shock of your life. On the other hand, if you are the one who has been practicing deception, you are going to be exposed Big Time. Your reputation will never be the same. If the first scenario is the one you’re bracing for, take a deep breath and expect the unexpected. If the second scenario is the case, you could try saving face and doing some damage control by Doing The Right Thing and confessing the truth. Either way…Deception is going to come to an end.
Also: Aquarius; the element of Water
The Waiting Game…Get to the Root-Of-The-Matter. This card feels as though it ties in closely with the first one. Just like the tree in the hour glass on this card– What’s being shown to the world is not the real picture; and what’s real is being deliberately concealed. Time is a factor here; it feels as though it ( the timing) has been set in motion, there’s the feeling of movment. It feel like a series of circumstances are coming into play in the realm of time and destiny…something is being played out. Your course is set. It’s really out of your hands at this point.
Also: walking in circles; circular routes; repetive actions
Love Begins…I wish I only had one way of looking at cards like this, or most cards for that matter, but there’s always two sides to everything (nothing is ever just black and white). The bottom line is that what happens in the matter of card #1 and card #2 is going to affect the relationship in your life. Again, the feeling of “movement” is strong, movement of time and circumstances, but also the feeling of physcial movement and a possible change of locality. Think hard. How you handle the circumstances revealed in the first two cards is going to come into play with your love life.
Also: joint ventures
And here, the questions that linger: Where does the deception lay? Who’s telling the truth? What’s being hidden? How will it be revealed?
I collect tarot decks, and I have about fifty as I write this. Of all the tarot decks I collect, I only have a handful of oracle decks, and these are purchased because I love the artwork or the intuitive inspiration and intentions behind them; but I never use them for readings. This deck, The Psychic Tarot Oracle Deck, is different.
This deck is divided into six sections, and one reason it’s so desirable and easy to use for readings is that the creator kept the essence of the twenty-two major arcana cards found in a traditional tarot deck.
There is a color-coding to the six sections of this deck. The colored borders include: black, for the major arcana and the seven chakra cards. The thirty-six minor arcana cards include: red for the physical aspect of life; green for emotions; indigo to clarify the mental aspects; and violet for the spiritual side of life.
The artwork is brilliant, bold, and beautiful; and it lends itself extraordinarily well to the energy of each card. The book which accompanies this deck is very thorough. There’s much more to it than those small white pamphlets included with most decks; this is more like a mini-book. It not only covers an in-depth look at each card, but also covers numerology; color interpretation; a section on psychic development, including clairsentience, clairaudience, and clairvoyance; tarot spreads; and symbols & images.
