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.
The Devil
Upright
Shadow self, attachment, addiction, restriction, sexuality
The Devil card symbolizes your shadow side and the negative forces that hold you back from being the best version of yourself. You may be at the effect of negative obsessions, thought patterns or addictions. You have found yourself caught between the momentary pleasure. Just as the Lovers card, Devil also speaks to duality; however, you are choosing the path of immediate satisfaction with the Devil, even if it costs your long-term health. Just like you have sold your soul to the Devil!
The Devil card often arrives when you have been thinking you have no control over your dark side, and that you can never break free from the hold of negative forces. However, deep down, you know it does harm to you, and you are doing it yourself damage when you trap into these needs with lower vibration. You need to accept the hold they have on you to break free of these negative addictions.
On the positive meaning, the Devil can also present a powerful attachment between two people, such as a new love affair still in its ‘honeymoon stage’. Be careful, because, with the Devil card, this healthy attachment could also turn into a co-dependent bond if you lose touch with your intuition.
The Devil could also signify your wild side and sexuality in a love reading. Also, it can symbolize strong chemistry and sexual attraction with your partner. You may be exploring your darkest and wildest fantasies. If you can do this within a safe space, it could be a very enriching adventure. However, it can easily turn into something that may be threatening or harmful to your being, so, set clear limits ready to go.
Reversed
Releasing limiting beliefs, exploring dark thoughts, detachment
The reversed Devil card can often be shown when you are on the boundary of a breaking point. You are being invited to your greatest potential, however, you must let go of any harmful habits or restricting beliefs that may hold you back. Let go of concerns and release any limiting beliefs standing in the way of your growth. It is easier than you think.
The reversed Devil calls on you to drop things you know are dangerous to you and your personality. It could be about creating a healthy diet, using less social media, quitting drinking and smoking, spending more time in nature, or focusing more on your purposes.
The reversed Devil may also be a warning that you are hiding your darkest self from other people as a secret. You may have thoughts or fantasies that you don’t want others to know because you feel ashamed. There is also a need to admit who you are and forgive yourself for the ideas you have.
Finally, the Devil reversed encourages you to train the detachment state, a state in which you defeat your attachment to the longing for things, people or ideas, and free yourself. It doesn’t mean you don’t care for them; you free yourself from dependency.
Seven of Wands
Upright
Challenge, competition, protection, perseverance
After the victory of the Six of Wands, you are now in an enviable position and are being protested by others who want to take your position. You worked hard to get to where you are, but some people desire what you have and try to fight you for it. It makes for tense and aggressive conditions because you need to preserve what you won and must constantly explain yourself.
When the Seven of Wands shows up in a Tarot reading, wait to see an increase in ‘enemies’, trolls and people who oppose you. You will need to defend your area and fight for what you stand for.
The Seven of Wands may appear when you hold a controversial viewpoint or wish to voice your idea in a public discussion. Be ready to defend your argument. Stand firm in your opinion of what you believe so that others do not plunge you from your peak of self-confidence.
Sometimes, this competition may catch you by surprise, and you feel insufficiently prepared for such a conflict. Just like the man in the card has hurried to put his footwear on and ended up with an incompatible pair, you must struggle to compete.
Establish clear boundaries and then protect your dreams so that others could not mess with you. Hold your territory and defend your position at all charges. Keep battling for what you believe in and face those who may attack or abuse you.
Reversed
Exhaustion, giving up, overwhelmed
The reversed Seven of Wands hints that external stress is pulling you down, making you doubt yourself and whether everything is worth it. You could feel that you are under continuous opposition. At first, you could keep firm, but after a constant struggle, you are now tired and ready to give up completely. Be strong, don’t change who you are just to make other people happy.
The Reversed Seven of Wands can also mean you think others are permanently analyzing you. Your family or friends are doubting your preferences, such as staying in a difficult relationship or an unfulfilling job, and you desire that they could just keep their mouths shut and let you be!
The Reversed Seven of Wands may affirm that you are confused by the difficulties and duties in your life, finding yourself quickly covered under and unable to look at the greater picture. You may have taken on too many responsibilities. You may also worry that you must fight against others, leaving you feeling somewhat weak and helpless. Rebuild your confidence and believe that you can accomplish what you set out to do.
Lastly, the Reversed Seven of Wands can arrive when you are trying to avoid disagreement wherever possible and, as a result, you are backing down from your viewpoint easily. Is being affirmed and liked by others more mattering than competing for what you believe in?
Three of Wands
Upright
Progress, expansion, foresight, overseas opportunities
The Three of Wands reveal that your plans are now initiated and you are examining even more chances to develop your current strategy. Everything is progressing firmly and as expected, thanks to your solid construction and ambition.
The Three of Wands indicates the many opportunities possible for you to expand your horizons through study, travel or business project. You are becoming more aware of the possibilities that exist for you right now. To take benefit of this potential, you must stay dedicated to your route and be adjusted to reach beyond your comfort zone, knowing your best hopes lie outside of your current environment.
The Three of Wands also brings your awareness to the difficulties that lie ahead. You are likely to be already conscious of the expected obstacles and can prepare for them ahead of time like the man in this card can see far away into the distance.
The Three of Wands could also point to travel, especially across the water. It inspires you to be courageous and endeavor to unknown places to explore more and learn many new things along the way. You may also explore worldwide business opportunities.
In a love reading, The Three of Wands hints that your relationship is heading to its next stage. If you’re in a more committed relationship, this can be a great moment to set view of your purposes as a couple and work together to reach those purposes.
Reversed
Playing small, lack of foresight, unexpected delays
The Reversed Three of Wands suggests that growth is possible for you, but you are choosing to play it safe. As a result, you are blocking yourself off from new possibilities by limiting your potential.
The Reversed Three of Wands shows that you have tried to start on your journey of individual development but did not fulfill your goals. Unexpected obstacles or blockages might have risen up on your path. There is a disappointment and you feel that you may have just misused your time by even beginning on this path. However, these setbacks are a necessary part of your life journey.
You may also struggle to put your plans into motion. It’s possible that you did not sufficiently plan for the difficulties on your path, or you were unrealistic about the dangers connected with your plans.
