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.
Three of Cups
Upright
Celebration, friendship, creativity, collaborations
The Three of Cups is a card of party, friendship, and creative collaborations. Your friends are here to encourage you and lift you to even higher levels of achievement. Rejoice with them and appreciate their friendship.
When the Three of Cups appears in a Tarot reading, you are urged to meet with your closest friends and have a pleasant time together. Together, you give and accept the love and empathy. Your energy is high, and you’re here to do astonishing things together.
The Three of Cups often indicates a sociable gathering – such as a anniversary, a marriage, or a holiday with friends. See it as your possibility to forget about your daily responsibilities and duties for a while. Spend good time with friends and family and have a fun!
This card also invites you to cooperate with others on a productive project and encourage one another to attain new aims. Collectively, you are working towards a common purpose, and by reaching out to others, you can accomplish a great deal of work.
Reversed
Independence, alone time, hardcore partying, third-party
While the upright Three of Cups is a card of friendship and social situations, the reversal of this card implies that you would like to go it single right now. You may have lately spent a lot of time with other people and now just need some lone time. Or perhaps you are no longer ‘matching’ with a social group and are willing to move on. Or sometimes, you might find yourself excluded from other people’s gatherings and feeling isolated. Acknowledge your desire to be out of the social groups for a while and enjoy this time by yourself.
If you are involved in a project, now may be the time to work individually rather than in a gathering. Your creativity is being blocked, or you are being made to adapt to the group. You may be one who does things a particular way and is not open to modification or alternative methods. You need to consider whether you are ready to surrender your creative skills in favour of the group’s wishes.
On the other meaning, the Three of Cups reversed may signify overindulgence. You may be out most nights partying, doing drugs or drinking heavily when what you need is balance in your life. Take a break from the social scene.
The reversed Three of Cups can show up in a third-party situation. You may be connected with someone who is already in a relationship with someone else, whether you know it or not. Check the other cards for more detail. The Seven of Swords indicates a deception and possible cheating. If Five of Swords is in your reading, you likely already know about the other connection, but you are trying to neglect. If there is the Devil, recognize the nature of the connection.
Seven of Pentacles
Upright
Long-term view, sustainable results, perseverance, investment
The Seven of Pentacles hints that you recognize the importance of putting in time and effort now for longer-term goals and have a great desire to spend in sustainable outcomes. You are not seeking fast gains. You also want to be certain you are setting your concentration on the correct areas rather than misusing time and energy.
When this card shows up in a Tarot reading, see it as an encouragement to step back from the daily tasks and look at the big picture. Rejoice what you have built so far. And also check whether you are on the right path.
Furthermore, if you are planning your next steps in life, the Seven of Pentacles urges you to take a careful look and evaluate where you can best spend your resources for the best outcome.
If you have been working carefully or putting the additional energy into something important, the project is close to its finish line. You are destined to see economic or other physical awards for all of your strong work.
However, the Seven of Pentacles can also symbolize disappointment with late results. Be patient and recognize the growth you have made so far.
Reversed
Lack of long-term vision, limited success or reward
The reversed Seven of Pentacles hints your works may be wasted at this time and you are doubting whether you are spending in the right fields. You may invest some fundamental capital on things that will not be profitable. Consider where you are spending your resources and make sure you are happy with your current process and earning a profit from those expenses.
Furthermore, the reversed Seven of Pentacles implies that even though you may proceed to spend a lot of energy into a particular situation, you may not get the pays you are searching for. This card requests you to prioritize your actions correctly.
The reversed Seven of Pentacles can note that you know when to quit spending on something when you see little profit. You are skilled at recognizing when a situation is no longer giving you any power and know when to quit in and seek something else.
In a love reading, the reversed Seven of Pentacles shows you have been trying very carefully for your love relationship and spending so much time and energy, however, now you worry that you will miss all of it. You may also feel disappointed that the connection is not growing as fast as you had expected, particularly when you invest in so much effort. However, sometimes you should open your heart and pour your soul into the love that has no guarantees.
The Moon
Upright
Illusion, fear, anxiety, dreams, subconscious, intuition
The Moon symbolizes your illusions and often shows up when you are projecting fear and worry into your present and your future, based on your past. You may have a depressing memory that caused emotional suffering, and rather than dealing with the emotions, you pushed them down into your subconsciousness. Now, these emotions are appearing again, and now you find yourself under their impact on your conscious or subconscious. To solve this, connect with your unconscious mind and free any fears holding you back. Hypnosis, treatment, and shamanic healing can be very helpful.
The Moon can symbolize a period of uncertainty. Be careful of making quick judgments and decisions when the Moon shows up because you may later realize that there was a hidden side of the situation. You need to trust your intuition so you can see beyond everything. Feel into circumstances rather than analyzing. Let go of your conscious mental barriers or negative thinking and let your intuition lead you. Your dreams and inner guidance guide you toward higher levels of understanding if you listen to the messages of the subconsciousness.
When the Moon card arrives in your Tarot reading, pay attention to the cycles of the moon and be in tune with its divineness by meditating. Once Zen meditators have opened their eyes, and they have seen the moon and out of their meditation, a certain phrase has emerged. Only through meditation will you be able to understand it; it is not poetry, it is not composed with the mind, it is a deep feeling in the heart.
One full moon;
stars numberless; the sky
dark green.
If you are in deep meditation and you see this dark sky with so many stars and a single moon, your silence will become very deeper.
Reversed
Release of fear, repressed emotion, inner confusion
The Moon reversed shows the negative impacts of fears and anxiety that you have been dealing with are descending. You are fighting through your fears, understanding them and free yourself from such limiting beliefs. This is a truly liberating practice.
You may try to avoid your darkness by burying these feelings even deeper within your unconscious. This strategy might work for a short period, but finally, you will need to bring to the surface these emotions and deal with them.
The Moon reversed can also show that you are accepting intuitive messages but it is difficult to understand what they signify for you. The message may be unclear. Trust that the solutions you need are already inside you, pay attention to your dreams, and tune in to your inner guidance to discover answers.
