Tarot Readings

[pianoperformer]

Hi,

Not to still Shiny's idea, but I saw that thread on practice readings, and I thought it was a really good idea.

So, I'd like to do practice readings as well, with Tarot. I use the Thoth Tarot Deck.

You can either request it publicly or privately, depeniing on what you prefer. I will do the reading through the same medium you use to request it.

The only condition is that you'd give feedback on the reading, since I'm trying to develop and get better. Even if the reading is private, I'd really appreciate if you could reply here with some sort of feedback, even if it doesn't give the details of the situation.

Also, if anyone wants help learning the Tarot, especially the Thoth, and many of the techniques that go along with it, let me know and I'd be happy to help.

Hey there, I'd love a reading! I do Tarot as well, but it's always better when someone else does it for me. Happy to offer you feedback, as well. I guess I'll give you my query now since no one else has replied...

I'm wondering what I should do next. I'm about to quit one of my jobs and I can't decide if I'd like to travel, do a meditation retreat, get another job and save up more money, etc... too many options, and all of them look good! So if you could focus the reading in that direction, that'd be great. Let me know if you need anything else.

I'd love a reading, too!

I'd like to know about my physical health - what led to my digestive issues, why are they still ongoing after surgery, and what can I do to help speed up healing and wellness. And anything else that pops up thats important

Thanks!
Denise

Thanks for the requests. I did get one through PM first, so I'll be doing that one first.

For those who have requested a reading, if you could please give me your birth date as well, so that I can choose a significator astrologically.

[Nimue]

Hi pianoperformer!
I'm between two. I don't know how exactly you work with the Tarot and what kind of feedback you want, so you decide which of both. I'd like a reading, but also to be of help...

Can you give me a reading about what future I can have in art or science (I work on both and try to decide)? I don't know how precise feedback I can give, since I'll give you before any of it happens, but I'll try
I can give you better feedback if you do a tarot reading for my exams. They take place at the end of January/beginning of February. It's a little far, but I know I can give you good feedback after I get the results.

Oh, and I'm Aries if that is what you mean by "significator"

[ElizabethAnne]

Hello PianoPerformer, Could I get a reading? My birthday is September 23, 1967 and I'm curious about a new business I'm planning. Thank you!

March 3, 1987. Pisces baby!

[rickrock]

Never had a reading directed to something specific, I've actually only had one a while ago. I would really appreciate one! I am multi-lingual and right now I am leaning on a degree in Linguistics and learning many more languages. I have a few reasons to become a Sign Language Interpreter but when I try to feel into it a bit more I hit a rough spot. Could you tell me anything about this? March 5, 1994. Also a Pisces and loving it

[pianoperformer]

Wow, lots of requests, both here and through PM. I'm in the midst of finals, so it might not be until Thursday until I start getting to the majority of these.

Nimue, I need a specific birth date. The significators are court cards in the Tarot. They go by sign, but they overlap by ten degrees, so the sign only narrows it down to two cards. For instance, Aries could be either the Queen of Wands (from 21st degree Pisces to 20th degree Aries) or Prince of Disks (21st degree Aries to 20th degree Taurus). If you are uncomfortable giving your birth date publicly, you can PM me. Alternatively, the cut-off date in Aries is April 11, so you could just tell me if it is before or after that date. I don't need a year.

To everyone who have responded publicly in this thread, I will assume that it is OK to post the reading in this thread as well unless you specify otherwise. Please tell me if you would rather me PM it to you.

Thanks again. I should get to the first one or two today.

[Nimue]

It's 16 of April. Yes, it's ok to post the reading here.
Thanks

[Aware]

I'd like one too, publically. 02-10-1990.

Sure. What is your question?

[IrisFreya]

I would love to have a reading to. My birth date is12-13-77 and my question i how will things turn out if Dave and I get back together?

[ladybugs4me]

Hey, would love to have a reading and will give you feedback. It is okay to post here directly. My birth date is November 3, 1961 6:57pm
Thank you and look forward to hearing from you

[seasidedaisy]

I would love a reading too.

Thanks, what should i be doing in my life right now? im feeling restless all month

[redzalez]

Do you have time for a public reading for me? Well the past 6 mths have been hectic for me. I am starting to realize that I can manifest what I want but what I want may be tough. My exgirlfriend with whom I have a daughter with left me 6mths ago. I probably am more hurt because I am the one that should have left. Even though things were rough I still have hope for us to really make it work but she just says she wants to be single for a while. What can you see in my near future as far as love? HOw about work wise? I really appreciate it. My name is Fred 05-20-73, hers is Melissa 05-07-82.

[pianoperformer]

ladybugs4me and seasidedaisy, what are your questions? Thanks.

[redzalez]

any response ?

[ladybugs4me]

My question would be general, where do you see me in the future or anything to do with my family in the future?

[Coccinnelle]

Pianoperformer,

I don't know if you 've received my PM . I think I am not able to send/receive pms for some reason.
My question was more about a general reading .
You can do it public.
DOB Nov.13th 1965

Thanks!

[Nimue]

Pianoperformer seems to be missing. Maybe the requests were too many, or decided for some reason to stop.

Sorry that it took me a while. Last week, I was finishing up finals and moving back home.

Here is your reading.

Cards:

1. Eight of Wands (Swiftness)
2. Prince of Cups
3. Devil
4. Aeon
5. Hierophant
6. Queen of Swords
7. Emperor
8. Three of Disks (Works)
9. Two of Swords (Peace)
10. Ten of Cups (Satiety)
11. Seven of Swords (Futility)
12. Chariot

At the surface, I sense a lot of conflict, and a sense that you’re a bit unsatisfied with what’s going on. But it seems like just a time of passivity. I don’t want to say laziness, but definitely taking it easy. But perhaps what you want to do and what is practical are conflicting a bit, and you are worried about that.

Were you in some kind of job with a very active role? It was definitely an outward type of job, but it didn’t really fit you. You felt very pressured, and didn’t have enough time to let your inner nature shine out, and you really want a chance to be able to do this. It didn’t fulfill you, because it’s not what you are supposed to be doing.

I feel like perhaps you’ve been coming to this realization over the last few months. There’s a conflict between what is traditional and expected, and what you’d like to do. You are not a traditionalist. You need, for your own sanity, to make a decision regarding your own path.

Maybe you’re afraid to shake up the norm? I see you wanting to keep peace, but maybe peace is not able to be kept in this situation. Sometimes one must be unbalanced for a while, in order to attain to a more lasting balance in the future. Again, it’s like you have all of these conflicting elements within yourself.

In the end, you know that you can’t stay where you are. You know that you need to change, but I think you have fear about that.

I think you need to take a break for a while. You need to rest, regroup, consult your guides on the best path for your life in the long-term, and create a new plan of attack. I don’t think you’re meant to be doing what you are/were doing. You need to take a bold step. You are very intellectual, but also very intuitive, and you need to take advantage of both sides of yourself. There is a part of yourself that contains the power and courage to do what you need to do, and you need to tap into that. Sometimes we struggle in order that we might find what we are truly meant to do.

This spread is called the elemental dignities spread. It is split into four parts:
1. The first three cards are fire
2. The second three are water
3. The third three are air
4. The last three are earth

Each card has an element. For instance, in the first position (fire), eight of wands is fire, prince of cups is water, and devil is earth. The ways these elements interact suggest the nature of the situation. The center card is called the principal, and the two surrounding ones are the modifiers. For example, in that first position, the prince of cups is weakened by the eight of wands, because it is fire, but strengthened by the devil, because it is earth, but overall it is weakened because it is in the position of fire. Therefore the strongest card is probably the eight of wands and/or devil.

I just explain this since I know you do Tarot, so I wanted to explain my process.

I hope this reading helps. Please let me know.

Sorry Nimue. It wasn't overhwhelming or anything. Just that the weight of finals was greater than I expected, and I had to focus on finishing off the semester well and getting home. Now I"m free and should be able to do a few each day.

Also, for those who are waiting, there are about 17 people on my waiting list after those I did today (not everyone posted here in this thread), so it'll take several days to a week to get through everyone.

[spacecadetglow]

Thank you so much, pianoperformer! What a nice little surprise tonight.

Actually, my job is extremely passive. I sit on the computer all day. :-\ That is where you were probably picking up on that from. You were correct that I feel like I can't let my true nature shine. It's an environment thing... not really the right kind of people for me to be around, that will help me grow, ya know?

I like the part about making a bold move and taking some time to rest and consult my guides over my next course of action. The holidays are coming up, so that will be the perfect time to do that.

As for your reading itself, I thought you did a good job. At times you sounded a bit... directive? instructional, maybe? Like you were *telling* me what to do, almost. This might just be a stylistic difference between us, but I use tarot to tap into someone's subconscious and get them to dredge their own feelings up, and guide them in the direction they feel they need to go. It might just be because this is online, and something gets lost. But there's my feedback, and I thank you again.

Fine by me, I'm curious but not in any hurry. You were kind enough to offer free readings, after all
I just thought that, since you didn't tell us anything, you might have left. Rare to happen, but one can never be sure.
Good luck with your results!

Thanks for the feedback.

Regarding the reading style, I'm sorry that you felt that way. I am new to using Tarot specifically. Well not knew per se, since I started using them about two years ago, but had a long break from it, so am just now getting back into it. So I appreciate the critique there.

I wasn't so much trying to tell you what to do, as much as let you know what I thought the cards were conveying, as well as your guides. Usually that information comes across very strongly, so I convey it in the same manner.

Interesting about the type of job. I thought perhaps the eight of wands (swiftness) represented the job, which has to do with, obviously, swiftness, communication, selling, etc. Perhaps it's just that you've made a lot of changes in the past?

Again I appreciate the feedback.

[redzalez]

Thanks for getting back pianop. Whenever you can you can post mine up on here. I appreciate it and thanks.

1. Five of Cups (Disappointment)
2. Knight of Swords

5. Ace of Disks
6. Five of Disks (Worry)
7. Chariot

I don’t feel like there is too much to worry about. I know that it was a pretty stressful time, and that you are still experiencing it, but I think that it can be turned around pretty easily.

I feel like there was something that was actually irritating your stomach?

Beyond the cards, it looks like your second chakra is a bit closed off. Maybe there were some emotional stresses, especially with the family? I think that it is important to remember to take time for yourself, to recharge yourself, or else you will get drained and exhausted and these types of things will happen.

So I would say that this is the way to go moving forward. Do what you can with conventional medicine, and even perhaps seek out some alternative healing, but also just make sure to treat yourself right and take time for yourself. Make sure that you are balanced physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually. I do get a sense of imbalance, and that the cause is metaphysical, as it were (beyond the physical). So work on yourself, and you will find that it gets better. Don’t struggle against it, but just live with it and do the best you can for yourself. Try to be a bit more in tune with your body and its needs.

Right now, you are being really weighed down by a lot of things, not least of which is this condition. But I fele, and the three aces in the draw confirm this, that it soon be a time of new beginnings in a lot of different ways. I do think that you will start to feel better, more than just physically, and that will be a welcome relief—a just reward.
