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.
Five of Wands
Upright
Conflict, disagreements, competition, tension, diversity
In the Tarot, the number Five describe conflict and struggle. The Five of Wands card shows that you are in the middle of conflict, stress, and opposition with others and it is affecting your energy to move forward with your purposes. Rather than being able to operate towards a goal, you are running up against constant struggle.
With the Five of Wands, everyone is fighting to be heard and no one is listening. When everybody has a different view, but no-one hears each other out, confusions will run uncontrolled. If you are in this situation, see it as a chance to rise up from the chaos. Listen to what other people are saying – even if you accept or not. The key is to harmonize with other people. After that, they may soften their judgments and also give you respect and listen to your viewpoint.
Sometimes, this type of conflict can be very fruitful, such as brainstorming and problem-solving. You may profit from building a committee or expert group with other people who bring alternating perspectives.
You may deal with people from different cultures and try to accept their way of living. Remember that each soul has something unique to bring to the table and that you will help by learning more about them and what they have to contribute.
The Five of Wands encourages an enthusiastic suggestion to change. Transition is coming whether or not you want it; your challenge will be in assuring that everyone is on the same page and dealing with this transformation constructively. However, currently, your group’s energy is scattered by misdirected energy. Everybody has ideas, but no one is there to bring them into a coherent path ahead.
Reversed
Inner conflict, conflict avoidance, tension release
The Five of Wands reversed suggests that you are handling inner conflict. You may try to work through your point of view on controversial topics or you may think about personal problems such as whether to leave or not a relationship or job. This process is helpful and will help you come to a well-thought-out perspective. There is no right answer, and someone will oppose the path you want, so find the option that suits best with you.
The Five of Wands reversed can imply that you have the tendency to withdraw conflict wherever possible. You may see that any tension makes you feel uncomfortable, and you wish it would just go away. So, you use a lot of that energy and neglect the problem. However, some conflict can be helpful, particularly if it is constructive and draws out the underlying problems for a solution.
Queen of Cups
Upright
Compassionate, caring, emotionally stable, intuitive, in flow
The Queen of Cups is caring, kind and sensitive. When you see her in a Tarot reading, you are embracing her ‘nourishing’ energy. You are listening with your heart and caring people strongly. You are empathic and can feel the needs of others by attuning into your heart, and you keep the space for others to show their emotions.
The Queen of Cups tells you are very intuitive, artistic, and in tune with the energies around. In your communications with others, you can simply know other people to get a feeling of how to interact efficiently. Other people may come to you to reveal their problems about the emotional level. They believe you and understand that you always have the right answer. You see the Divine in everyone you see.
In your creative plans and efforts, you sense your step into them, trusting your heart to guide you on the right path. You know when something is ‘wrong’, and you notice this, even if it doesn’t make logical sense. You may be in harmony with the lunar cycles, using these cycles to manifest your purposes and live your desires.
Sometimes the Queen of Cups hints that you are being asked to trust your inner voice and pay awareness to your feelings. Act with your heart, not your head. Be open to receiving intuitive messages streaming to you through your dreams or meditation.
Reversed
Inner feelings, self-care, self-love, co-dependency
When the reversed Queen of Cups appears in a Tarot reading, you need to bring your awareness inwards and focus on your emotional self. You’re amazing at taking care of other people – but now it’s time to take care of Yourself. This card implies that you are emotionally exhausted because you have been so occupied helping others, but not yourself. You may need to set clear limits with people so that they understand you love them but will not take on their emotional baggage. They are responsible for their life experiences, and they need to go on their own mission to learn.
The reversed Queen of Cups could mean you have created a co-dependent connection that is not good for either person. Review your relationships and see where you can build a healthy distance.
The reversed Queen of Cups is often a warning that your intuition is powerful right now, however, you should give yourself the time to listen.
In some cases, the reversed Queen of Cups is a signal that you are allowing your emotions to rule over you. Be mindful not to let your emotions catch your life in such a way that you are losing control and outlook. Find a quiet space to be centered and calm your soul.
Sometimes, the reversed Queen of Cups implies that you may be out of touch with your emotions or holding them deep inside. You may try to prove yourself, instead of bottling up your emotions. If you do not connect these emotional problems, they will reach a boiling limit.
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.
