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.
Six of Pentacles
Upright
Giving, receiving, sharing wealth, generosity, charity
The Six of Pentacles is a card of giving and accepting. Sometimes, you are on the giving side; other times, on the receiving side. It’s a continuous circle of growth, and this card is a notice that harmony can change at any time. You maybe like the rich man in this card, sharing your abundance with others. You have acquired great abundance and are now in a place to grant financial support to those in lack. Even if you are not financially rich, you give up your time, energy, love and care to people, understanding it will be honored. There may be moments when you question if you can really manage to provide generously to others – and the guidance of the Six of Pentacles is to believe that every giving you do is appreciated and will get back to you.
Furthermore, you may be on getting other people’s generosity, receiving these contributions with appreciation. This will help you to go back on your feet and to eventually pay the charitable company or person, either with your wealth or other resources. You will also need to find ways in which you can become more independent. The danger of receiving a gift is that you become reliant on it and cannot look after yourself. Be careful that you are not getting passive or noticeably hopeless as a consequence of the donation that someone else is granting you.
Finally, the Six of Pentacles is a card describing financial balance. The money is circulating in and out are stable, and you are grateful for what you have and glad to share with others in lack.
Reversed
Self-care, unpaid debts, one-sided charity
The reversed Six of Pentacles suggests you make sure you are also contributing to yourself. A little consideration will help a lot, particularly if you have been giving to others for a prolonged time. Think to buy a little present to show yourself love for everything.
The reversed Six of Pentacles can imply that you are giving to others easily and they do not return your favors. You may feel as if they are taking benefit of you in this one-way street situation. While you can’t alter the other person’s reply or make them return the favor, you can refuse to help in the future.
You may have an inclination to consume or provide more than you can afford. While open-handedness is an excellent quality, you need to guarantee that you are able to help yourself while serving others.
The reversed Six of Pentacles sometimes displays the egoistic side of kindness. Be mindful that you are not attempting to show to others that you are a generous person by giving to the poor.
In a love reading, the reversed Six of Pentacles hints that one partner is taking a lot, thus creating an imbalance in the connection. You need to be cautious that your generous character is not being taken advantage of and that you are not the one making tolerances for your lover’s profit always.
Knight of Cups
Upright
Creativity, romance, charm, imagination, beauty
The Knight of Cups is the traditional romantic of the Tarot deck. He is in touch with his feelings, and he uses them masterfully to impress and attract. The Knight is loving, caring and very in touch with his sensitive side. He may be writing a passionate poem to his beloved, creating art caused by his deep feelings. His heart is fully open. He shares his love without limitation or worry; he is in love with love.
When the Knight of Cups appears in a Tarot reading, you succeed on all things beautiful. While the Page of Cups was inspired by an artistic idea, the Knight of Cups is driven by action. You have fantasized about what it is you need to build and now are moving ahead with this idea to make it a reality. It may be an art plan or something you feel ‘invited’ to do, based on your emotions, imagination. Be open to searching for your passions.
All Knights are on a purpose, and this Knight’s mission is romance, altruism, empathy, and grace. You have an image of peace and are ready to make it into existence. You are lead by your soul and want to see the love for everyone concerned.
When it comes to making choices, the Knight of Cups is ruled by his heart. When this card appears in a Tarot reading, you are making choices based on how you feel about a circumstance rather than what you think, even if others can’t understand what you are doing and why, and your inspiration leads you in everything you do.
Reversed
Overactive imagination, unrealistic, jealous, moody
When the reversed Knight of Cups shows up in a Tarot reading, a creative project is beginning, but you are not willing to work on it just yet. You may consume most of your time fantasizing up what is likely to be or how amazing it will be when it comes to achievement. While it can be improving to be in the dreamy stage for a while, the project will not come into being until you start to work.
Sometimes, the reversed Knight of Cups can symbolize that you are irritable, unhappy, and insecure. You may feel disappointed that you are not being given the chance to dream and design.
The reversed Knight of Cups can represent someone who has an overly romantic strategy to life and is separated from reality.
