Readings
Three Cards
The three card tarot spread is one of the oldest methods. You can get to the heart of your question with a simple three-card Tarot reading. In this spread, there are three different positions which can be changed by to your preference, Past – Present – Future (or Situation – Action – Outcome, Situation – Obstacle – Advice and etc.).
The meaning of the card you choose varies according to it’s position.
This opening provides a GENERAL perspective to the period you are in. Or you can evaluate the comments in the frame of your question.
Justice
Upright
Justice, fairness, truth, cause and effect, law
The Justice card symbolizes justice, fairness and the law. You are being called to value your actions or will be judged accordingly. Take responsibility for your activities and stay ready for the consequences.
If you ask justice, then the Justice card is a positive sign that it will be served. You may be awaiting final judgment from the courts or a governing body. A decision will be declared shortly and you must accept it and move on.
The Justice card often appears when an important decision with the potential for long-term consequences should be made. Be aware of the impression your decisions will have on you and other people. Choose consciously by connecting with your intuition and seek for the solution that is most in adjustment with the highest good of all.
Finally, the Justice card is about the exploration of truth. Be prepared to dip into the dark waters and search what truth means to you. Be consciously aware of your truth and your belief about fairness. Get ready to challenge yourself and to discover new areas of your belief system.
Reversed
Unfairness, lack of accountability, dishonesty
The reversed Justice card can hint that inside, you know you’ve done something that isn’t morally right. You have a choice: you can cover it and hope nobody finds out, or you can take focused action to solve the situation by owning up to your mistakes.
Similarly, Justice reversed shows that you are not willing to take full responsibility for your actions and blame others for your mistakes. Assess your situation once more, trying to determine where you can take responsibility. Once you notice where you made a mistake, do whatever you can to make it right again. And you will free yourself from any guilt and empower yourself to make better decisions in the future.
The reversed Justice card can mean that your inner critic is in full impact. You may be evaluating your every single move and coming down hard on yourself. Show yourself a bit of kindness and compassion. We all make mistakes. Thank your inner judgment for trying to do best for everyone, but let yourself relax a bit and go with the flow.
If you are making a critical choice that will influence others, be aware if you are holding on to any discrimination or prejudice that could sway your decision unfairly. You may need to get more knowledge to make a balanced decision.
If you are engaged in a lawful circumstance, you may fear an unfair result. There may be legal difficulties or something that prevents justice from being served.
Strength
Upright
Strength, courage, persuasion, influence, compassion
The Strength card represents strength, energy, and power – like the Chariot. However, while the Chariot means outer strength and will, the Strength card symbolizes the inner strength. Strength is about knowing you can handle life’s challenges. You have great stamina and endurance, balanced with great patience. You are committed to what you need to do, and you go for your goals with maturity and inner calmness.
When the Strength Tarot card appears in a reading, you are full of individual power. You do not rule by trying to dominate others; you quietly influence and convince. And this is also an advantage that others may underestimate your power, however, it is so ‘transparent’.
Your strength gives you the confidence to overcome fears, difficulties or uncertainties. You have got what it takes to see this situation through to its final. You’re a loyal friend and a supporter and you might also feel compelled to hold space for someone who needs your power and help.
The Strength card advises you to ‘train’ your animal instincts, and raw emotions, and channel these primary responses constructively. It’s normal for negative feelings such as anger, fear, rage, shame, sadness or guilt to appear in certain circumstances. However, it’s what you do with these feelings that make all the distinction. Now is a time when you need to be alert of your instinctual urges. Overtake your situation from a place of love and compassion.
Reversed
Inner strength, self-doubt, low energy, raw emotion
When the reversed Strength card is shown up in a Tarot reading, it may be time to tune in to your current levels of inner strength. Are you overflowing with self-confidence, or are you exhausted? And how can you take these features back into balance?
You may be lacking in self-confidence if you have lately experienced a setback. Know that your center strength will always be with you and now is as good a time as any to reconnect with this strength. You may hold more strength and flexibility than you have always believed – so, be gentle to yourself.
Check on your energy levels right now. The reversed Strength card is your call to rest and withdraw for a temporary period to restore your energy levels. You must take care of yourself first, so you will be able to take care of other people too.
In its shadow form, the reversed Strength card warns that you are likely to show unstable behavior and becoming aggressive. You may end up doing something you regret later by acting without thinking. The key is not to repress the raw emotions and urges, but to learn how to channel it so it won’t hurt others or yourself.
Queen of Wands
Upright
Courage, confidence, independence, social butterfly, determination
The Queen of Wands tells you that you are courageous and stubborn. You are here to see through your creative ideas and life goal, even in the face of difficulty. Being highly self-actualized, you know how to best direct your powers and vulnerabilities to reach your purposes. You are confident and full of ideas to share with other people. You know what you desire and how to take it, and are authoritative at engaging with others to accomplish your goals. Stay strongly determined on your purposes while being intimate and friendly with people around you.
The Queen of Wands asks you to be brave in your moves. Don’t be hesitant to own your power and put it out into the universe. You have so much to contribute – so it is time to shine! Believe what you stand for, and don’t be scared to speak up. No one will stop you.
Like the social butterfly, the Queen of Wands hints that you guide a busy life, making relationships with people and you track your imagination. You spread vitality – a natural intellectual leader who actively motivates others.
The Queen of Wands also tells that you appreciate being the center of attention and opening yourself completely to the external world. You can instantly win others over with your warm and charming character.
Finally, the Queen of Wands urges you to get to know your shadow character and your darker side. This doesn’t certainly need to be a negative feature of yourself but could be something that people don’t know about. Queen of Wands inspires you to share this side more openly with others – don’t be scared to show your shadow. It will allow you to relate to others on a deeper level.
Reversed
Self-respect, self-confidence, introverted, re-establish sense of self
The Reversed Queen of Wands indicates you have reached a place of confidence. You know yourself on a profound level, and you are open to your truth.
The Reversed Queen of Wands can also hint that you may be more introverted than normal. Instead of being the center of attention, you want to wait and watch what is happening. That’s absolutely okay – honor your needs and don’t force yourself to be extroverted.
If you have lacked in courage, the Reversed Queen of Wands suggests you bring your energy inward and concentrate on restoring your sense of flexibility. Discover who you are and be brave in revealing ‘you’ in everything you do, even if it is distinctive from what others require of you.
