Tarot Tuesday Twosome #15

Introduction

My Tarot Tuesday Twosome takes two cards and explains what they suggest about the present and immediate future. Two cards can show point / counter-point situations. They can show a situation and further details to consider. They can indicate the present situation ... and the near future or the next step in the progression.

They give literally twice as much information as the familiar One-Card Reading, and I have found them to be surprisingly prescient in my practice with them. So, I decided to bring them here to my Steemit blog -- to show you what I mean and invite you to consider their weekly message / prediction ... and step into a more conscious life.

Holy crap!

That's exactly what I said when I saw these cards show up for today's reading. Sometimes the Tarot is more exciting than a Netflix serial.

If you had any idea the lengths I go to to make sure the deck is thoroughly shuffled and that no card has an unfair advantage over any other ... you'd be as amazed as I am at how these readings are lining up.

I shuffle the deck at least a dozen times between readings. I cut them, reintegrate them -- and then I fan them out face down in a straight line so a little edge of every one is showing. I close my eyes and then select two cards, usually from two distinctly different locations in the line.

That's why, when one card (like The Hermit) shows up week after week, it's no accident. And it's not because I couldn't be bothered to mix up the cards well. Something is dragging him out repeatedly to deliver a message. That alone can make you believe in the supernatural.

I select cards for Spiritual Sunday differently. I'll describe that for you someday soon. Maybe it will help you appreciate this whole process as much as I do. There's something simply spooky and inspiring to this whole business. But enough ranting for now. Let's get on with it.

King of Cups = The Master of the Emotional World -- the Master Artist, Poet & Writer, the Master Mystic, the Master Healer & Therapist ---> indicates being powerfully centered emotionally, having control of your feelings & direction, feeling clear on how you feel, able to be an example for others

Gee, does this face look familiar? The King of Cups still standing proud and tall ... and ready to function. All he needs is your permission -- and whatever help you can give him ... and he's ready to go to work putting your emotional world in order ... and launching powerful new creative ventures. You couldn't ask for a better ally. Make sure you have his back.

His appearance alone was a Holy crap!! moment -- and then I saw who'd come along with him.

Strength = the name says it all.

This card is about strength, fortitude, courage, power and determination. You can find some other nouns if you feel they apply, but you get the picture. This guy's got clout. And he's partnered w/ the KgC ... making this pair a virtually invincible duo. This is not some extra-resolute everyday 9 of Rods power ... this. This is the Life Lesson Archetype of Strength (and Tenacity, Power, Authority, etc.) ... making this couple a potentially life-changing situation -- depending on the decisions and actions you take from this point.

This is Tarot gold! Take a look at your life. Where do you want to grow? What do you want to create? Where and how do you want to demonstrate your impressive artistic mastery? Where do you want to use and spend this currency? It's yours if you want it. But of course you have to claim it. Seize the day. If you don't, you have only yourself to blame -- later.

A comment on current conditions
What are these cards saying?

You are a master craftsman, a master artist, a master of all things in the emotional realm. You have things you can create and share that will establish your status and enrich the world around you. You also have the strength and power to make it happen. Step up. It's now up to you.

A forecast of the future
As a one-two sequence,
cause and effect / situation and result,
present situation and next situation

Claim your skills and identity. They are impressive. Be true to yourself. You have the power to do what you want to do.

Also ... just FYI, the card for the theme on Spiritual Sunday was The Sun -- ruler of Leo. Strength is the Leo card!! ---> proud, charismatic, self-assured, flamboyant, creative, self-promoting. Man, it just doesn't get any better (or clearer) than this.

A point to ponder
Simple words of wisdom
to make the journey more interesting

I stuck the quote from Emerson out here before. Do the thing and you shall have the power. This reading is a literal echo of those words.
