Is anyone here pretty confident with tarot interpretations?
I felt compelled to fetch out my old deck and do a basic 13-card calendar spread reading..I got pretty strange results. I was wondering if it'd be worth me posting what I got for you to voice your interpretations?
Just looking at it now - What hits me first is that I have three queens and no reversed cards..Which I find pretty weird..
Hmmm... I could have a go for you on the interpretation, but I can't give you any guarantees.
It's not so unusual to have no reversed cards. Example, you have tarot decks that are intended to only be read without reversals. Everything is quite possible. I once got all reversed cards on one reading. :silly:
It also matters how concentrated you are during the reading etc.
I'm usually pretty confident with reading for others, but I usually ask a friend (who also does tarot readings) to read the cards for me becasue I usually manage to influence my cards so much that I get really weird results. :woohoo:

It's just that usually I get at least one or two reversals... Never had a straight set before, without. I'll list them quickly in the order they came out (1 to 13).
1. Justice
2. The Sun
3. Pent - VI
4. Wands - Queen
5. Judgement
6. Wands - VII
7. Pent - IV
8. Pent - Queen
9. Swords - Queen
10. Empress
11. Pent - III
12. Pent - X
13. Wands - Page

So..What you think?
Someone's lucky! I'd say those are some pretty nice positive cards you got there, don't know why you felt they were strange. I'd be happy if I got such nice cards.
I think those three queens are nothing strange; probably three female persons will play some role in your life at that time. (Everything is probably and maybe, becasue the future is ever changing, at least after my opinion with cards...)
I don't know how much I'll be of help here, I'll just give some hints as to what may await you in the coming months. I take the first card as January, 2nd for February etc. so the first 4 cards tell you about what already happened in a way.
Personally, I don't really feel that interpreting with 1st card stands for the 1st month from the reading forward (ergo, 1st card is now for May etc.) feels right. But that's just me and I don't know what you thought when you shuffled and pulled those cards.
I've put it in spoilers so that the page isn't stretched too long.
oh, and a disclaimer to be on the safe side: I'm not a professional tarot master or something, so I don't want to hear anyone complaining how my interpretation isn't good for one reason or another.
I only did readings for friends up till now, so this is the first interpretation I did for a *stranger*, please be kind to me. :blush:
Encounters with lawyers, judges, police and similar. Singing of legal papers, contracts. Honestly, I always have a problem interpreting this card... don't know why. :huh:
2. The Sun
Positive events – may indicate material gain or recognition for your work. Good news.
3. Pent – VI
Just rewards – you will receive what is due to you, positive or negative.
4. Wands – Queen
A feminine influence, who is socially active, could aid you in some way. A round of social activities brightens your life. Reaping good rewards from your labours.
5. Judgement
Someone from the past comes back into your life with influences you may or may not like. May point to a change of home or job. Facing an unpleasant but necessary decision.
6. Wands – VII
Difficult times. Competition in something important to you will bring difficulty and harsh feelings. Time to take a stand on an issue that is important to you.
7. Pent – IV
Grasping at money... You may get money. :silly: (You really have a lot of pentacles going on here.)
8. Pent – Queen
Indicates a feminine influence who is good with money, but is critical and demanding (maybe your mom?). An opportunity will come to reap good benefits after a long time of labour. Good time to make plans for the future.
9. Swords – Queen
Yet another female person will play a role in your life (maybe a female professor?). You will be faced with a period in your life that makes you learn an important lesson you have avoided. Be careful getting your way in something through manipulation, for later this action will come back to haunt you.
10. Empress
Unexpected gifts/blessings. A new relationship is close. *cough* take care with contraception, if you don't want to get pregnant...
Travel, pleasant recreation or social gatherings will benefit you at this time. Financial security and good fortune can be yours with planning and commitment.
11. Pent – III
Success through a craft, hobby or creative endeavour. Maybe earning money with your music skills?
12. Pent – X
Good time for investments. A pleasant family gathering renews your confidence and happiness.
13. Wands - Page
This card is an overview of the year in a whole and basically, in short, it means that everything doing with university will be the major thing that will mark your year. Yeah, a sarcastic \"no shit, Sherlock?\" would be a reasonable response, but hey, those are your cards. I'd say you are on a good path with the things you've been doing so far, so don't worry too much.

^.^ Your interpretation is similar to mine, but has given me a lot more insight.
I read those and placed them with the idea that they would begin the first month from the reading forward, and I think they make more sense that way..
Going to have to mull things over..5 and 6 put together bother me, particularly with some recent news I've gotten. The timings of everything with how I read them seem really..Strange.. Strange as in eerily accurate according to what I know will happen this year. Maybe it's just me imagining things.
:woohoo: I'm hoping the multitude of pentacles is a good thing!
^.^ Thanks for the time put into your interpretation, by the way. I really appreciate it!

Don't worry yourself too much about the cards. It's still another 5-6 months up till what cards 5&6 predict and you never know if something may change in the mean time. Take this just as a warning. Your faith lies in your hands, you can change it if you want to.
At least all those pentacles mean that you won't have money problems to worry about. :silly:

I hope so! Because it sounds good from the perspective of a poor-student-to-be.
