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.
Page of Wands
Upright
Inspiration, ideas, discovery, limitless potential, free spirit
With the Page of Wands, you prefer to give anything a go. You embrace the possibility to start on a new journey and see where it takes you. You do not have a fixed plan, but you are enthusiastic about the opportunities.
The appearance of the Page of Wands shows that you are experiencing creative excitement, however, the Page is staying still and his wand is planted on the earth – he is not moving anywhere yet. You still need to take your imaginative sparkle and ground it down so that it is ready to be fulfilled in the physical world. You may need to map out your plan or create a few trials.
The Page of Wands can show up when a spiritual path may be inviting you. You have an inquisitive mind and are interested to see where this call might lead. While you are very much the amateur when it comes to this spiritual journey, you are open to the knowledge and keen to learn new levels of awareness. You may get help from a mentor, someone who has wandered your path before and can now guide you forward.
Reversed
Newly-formed ideas, redirecting energy, self-limiting beliefs, a spiritual path
The reversed Page of Wands implies that you can feel something new rising within you, but you don’t know how to turn it into action. You may have the seed of an opinion or a general feeling that something new is happening, but you are yet to manifest it in the world. You do not need to make progress yet – in fact, doing so may be harmful since this idea is in the early steps of development. Just ‘play’ with the idea and let it evolve. Do not make it; sit in the imaginative void and allow it to open itself.
On the other meaning, the reversed Page of Wands can suggest that you tried many new adventures, however, these have not turned out as you had expected. You may have had the dream to start a new project with the sense that it would reach something more significant, but you understood that you took the incorrect way. Try to prefer another way to display the idea, and be prepared to redefine your route to stay in harmony with your personal maturity goals.
Finally, the reversed Page of Wands may also show up when you are exploring a new way of spiritual discovery. It is likely to be an extraordinary spiritual path. So, you are keeping this journey secret. You acknowledge, too, that motivation comes from inside, rather than looking to others for the solutions.
King of Cups
Upright
Emotionally balanced, compassionate, diplomatic
The King of Cups signifies mastery over the areas of emotion, creativity, and the subconscious. When this card shows up in a Tarot reading, you have obtained control of your emotions and can accept them without letting them get the much of you. Even when life tosses you a curveball, you can move on your emotional development and confidence to help you operate these difficulties.
If you are being tested mentally, the King of Cups advises you to stay emotionally mature when challenged with negative energy from people. Be strong on your boundaries, declaring what is and is not fair in an emotional realm. This King uses his mind to make clever decisions and does not let other events or impulses affect his fundamental morals. Stay faithful to your emotions and beliefs and do not allow other people to direct you off track.
The King of Cups represents the excellent balance between the mind and the heart. Not only are you able to evaluate and control a condition reasonably, but you can also bring upon your intuition. As a leader, you care as much about accomplishing your aims and aspirations as you do about making certain everyone is happy and fulfilled.
As a King, he has masculine, protective energy, and as a Cups card, he draws his loving self to the lead. He gives smart advice when it comes to emotions and relationships. The King of Cups is sympathetic towards other people, creating powerful connections and relationships based on tolerance and harmony.
Reversed
Self-compassion, inner feelings, moodiness, emotionally manipulative
The reversed King of Cups shows that you are concentrating on your inner feelings. You are exploring the emotions collected in your subconscious mind and how these emotions influence you. Through this work, you hope to obtain a more powerful sense of control over your emotions so that they don’t push you away from living your life.
When the reversed King of Cups arrives in your reading, you may be more inclined to being upset and drama. You may feel unhappy, depressed, anxious and irregular. You may also be punishing yourself over little things that have gone wrong. If this resonates, try to recognize the root cause of these thoughts and bring your awareness to the influence they are doing on your life.
The reversed King of Cups could tell that you are repressing your emotions and isolating from the external world because you worry about what may happen if you were to face your emotions. Your emotions are bottling up inside you. If this tension gets too much you are at risk of an emotional outbreak.
At worst meaning, the reversed King of Cups can symbolize someone who is cruel and has a talent for being able to beat people using emotional manipulation. He makes you feel doubtful about yourself and leads to emotional instability within you. If this seems like someone you have met, you still have to release yourself from his manipulation capabilities.
Temperance
Upright
Balance, moderation, patience, purpose
Temperance is the card for making balance into your life. It is time to stabilize your energy and to allow the life force to flow through you without additional effort. Recover flow and you can get your life back into harmony.
This card invites you to stay calm, even when life feels stressful. Maintain an even temper and watch your emotions. You have learned to keep prepared in harsh situations. Little details don’t get to you, because of your rich patience. Your respect for tranquillity is what will help you feel fulfillment in your life.
The Temperance card invites you to take the middle path and receive all viewpoints. It’s not the time to be extremely stubborn. Be the observer and try to avoid any extremes.
This Tarot card is about alchemy by mixing and combining different components in a way that produces something new.
The Temperance card explains that you have a pure sight of what you want to accomplish. Don’t rush things; you should take your time to guarantee that you do the best of you. You know you need a gentle, guided strategy to reach your aims.
Finally, this card indicates very important knowledge. You are achieving a big understanding of where you are at peace with what you are doing. Your intuition is leading you to the result, and you are calmly following.
Reversed
Imbalance, excess, self-healing, re-alignment
If you’re undergoing a phase of dissipation, the Reversed Temperance card is your signal to recover balance as soon as possible. You may have been eating too much, habitually drinking, over-buying, or involving in negative thinking patterns. These activities are taking you further away from your true self. So, it is time to stop and bring your life back into balance.
The reversed Temperance card could also be a warning you feel that something is ‘absent’ in your life, producing tension. Life is not progressing as smoothly as you had expected or you feel that something is not right. You can carry on with life as normal by ignoring it. But, you should notice Temperance’s lesson: If you wait in this situation for too long, that voice will just get louder. Or, you can accept it now and make the required improvements to discover your flow again.
The reversed Temperance card could be an invitation for healing and re-examining your life priorities. By building more stability and balance in your life, you open the possibility of adjusting your higher vibration.
