Readings
Two Cards
If you are trying to make a very important decision in your life and you don’t know which path to follow, if you are really doubtful about the consequences the crossroads tarot spread will help you to find your way.
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.
Ace of Pentacles
Upright
A new financial or career opportunity, manifestation, abundance
The Ace of Pentacles signifies starts, possibilities, and potential like the other Aces of the Tarot – and as a Pentacles card, these beginnings relate to the material realm: investments, money, profession and bodily health. You may get a new job request, a surprising amount of money, a new business occasion. No matter the circumstance, the Ace of Pentacles announces a feeling of success and wealth in the material spheres of your life. It surely comes as a welcome message. As with all Aces, this card represents the possibility of a new attempt but does not guarantee its completion because it will be up to you.
The Ace of Pentacles indicates the first steps of manifesting your purposes and ensures that you can accomplish what you have set your mind to do. This card urges you to map out how you will reach your goals, build plans and get those efforts started.
The Ace of Pentacles also signifies abundance, not just for your bank account but in every way. You may explore chances to generate a new source of revenue or you may have a fortune to produce wealth in a wider sense – joy, satisfaction, and love.
Reversed
Lost opportunity, lack of planning and foresight
When the reversed Ace of Pentacles arrives in a reading, you may feel reluctant about moving ahead with an opportunity, especially one that relates to your career or investments. You may be wondering whether you have what it takes to review it through. Don’t move ahead until you’re ready. Evaluate the probability of your plan and its potential consequences.
The reversed Ace of Pentacles may also be a signal that a business opportunity could drop unexpectedly.
Moreover, the reversed Ace of Pentacles suggests you be very cautious with your expenses. When the card is reversed, the coin seems as it’s about to drop out of the hand. Be practical in case you are without a job or have a big and unforeseen financial expense.
Sometimes, the reversed Ace of Pentacles suggests that you are working on your goals but keep falling into setbacks and other obstacles. If you’re having restricted success, then you may need to review your aimed approach.
