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.
Queen of Wands
Upright
Courage, confidence, independence, social butterfly, determination
The Queen of Wands tells you that you are courageous and stubborn. You are here to see through your creative ideas and life goal, even in the face of difficulty. Being highly self-actualized, you know how to best direct your powers and vulnerabilities to reach your purposes. You are confident and full of ideas to share with other people. You know what you desire and how to take it, and are authoritative at engaging with others to accomplish your goals. Stay strongly determined on your purposes while being intimate and friendly with people around you.
The Queen of Wands asks you to be brave in your moves. Don’t be hesitant to own your power and put it out into the universe. You have so much to contribute – so it is time to shine! Believe what you stand for, and don’t be scared to speak up. No one will stop you.
Like the social butterfly, the Queen of Wands hints that you guide a busy life, making relationships with people and you track your imagination. You spread vitality – a natural intellectual leader who actively motivates others.
The Queen of Wands also tells that you appreciate being the center of attention and opening yourself completely to the external world. You can instantly win others over with your warm and charming character.
Finally, the Queen of Wands urges you to get to know your shadow character and your darker side. This doesn’t certainly need to be a negative feature of yourself but could be something that people don’t know about. Queen of Wands inspires you to share this side more openly with others – don’t be scared to show your shadow. It will allow you to relate to others on a deeper level.
Reversed
Self-respect, self-confidence, introverted, re-establish sense of self
The Reversed Queen of Wands indicates you have reached a place of confidence. You know yourself on a profound level, and you are open to your truth.
The Reversed Queen of Wands can also hint that you may be more introverted than normal. Instead of being the center of attention, you want to wait and watch what is happening. That’s absolutely okay – honor your needs and don’t force yourself to be extroverted.
If you have lacked in courage, the Reversed Queen of Wands suggests you bring your energy inward and concentrate on restoring your sense of flexibility. Discover who you are and be brave in revealing ‘you’ in everything you do, even if it is distinctive from what others require of you.
Nine of Swords
Upright
Anxiety, worry, fear, depression, nightmares
The Nine of Swords hints that clouded thoughts and unpleasant feelings are pulling you down (and keeping you awake at night). You are suffering extremely about a situation, and your pessimistic feelings are getting the better of you, making you very anxious. The more you connect with your worries, the more they will control your life. It becomes a circle where one terrible thought leads to another until they defeat you. Just as the nine swords are piled upon each other on the wall, so too are your pessimistic thoughts.
Be cautious because the anxiety in the Nine of Swords can grow a self-fulfilling process. As you obsess over what may go incorrect, you are more likely to make your worst-case scenario true because you are involuntarily behaving in ways that help your negative beliefs. So, the Nine of Swords invites you to break the loop. Every time a negative thought shows up, replace it with a good one.
The Nine of Swords warns you that much of the anxiety you are encountering is in your head and not certainly an exact representation of what is occurring. You may make things more hurtful for yourself by obsessing over the worst scenarios.
The Nine of Swords often shows up when trouble, hopelessness, and anxiety are quite actually keeping you up at night. You may not be sleeping properly, or you are experiencing regular nightmares. Your persistent thoughts are stopping you from relaxing. Other people may help you to see the positive perspectives and guide you towards a resolution. You are not able to see at your situation clearly, as you are surrounded by negative thoughts, so having an objective viewpoint will encourage you to find your way out.
Reversed
Inner turmoil, deep-seated fears, secrets, releasing worry
The reversed Nine of Swords notes that you are undergoing deep inner confusion as a consequence of your mindset. Your negative thoughts are taking you in a loop of hopelessness and anxiety that opposes reality; you are getting things to feel much worse than they really are.
The reversed Nine of Swords shows up when you are grasped by fear. You are allowing your fears to prevent your whole potential and it is removing you of your life energy.
On a more positive sign, the Nine of Swords can come up reversed when you have already worked through this phase of depression and are recovering. You may have come to the understanding that things are not as critical as you thought them to be, and you are starting to rest and calm yourself about what was once a horrible condition.
