Three-card jumping/falling spread
Mar. 1st, 2018 08:50 pmIt’s the full moon, so it’s time to do a little spread I learned from Ellen.
I used Nathalie Hertz’s Vampire Tarot, but no pics right now because I can’t figure it out on the iPad.
Card 1 - Where am I falling? Three of Cups: Celebration. Though there is still work ahead, this card indicates happy, social occasions—time with loved ones, good health, hobbies. I don’t feel like I’ve been especially lacking in any of these, except perhaps for the financial element, where a case could be made that I’m falling down on curbing my spending. But that would probably be a Pentacle. But perhaps I am not managing my relationships as fruitfully as I should be doing? Or perhaps I am spending too much time celebrating and not enough time doing other stuff. I though I’d gotten a handle on that, too.
Card 2 - Where am I jumping? Four of Swords: Respite. This would seem to indicate that the prior card may indicate having had more fun than I can handle, and I am currently trying to do better solitude and self-care. This is indeed something I’ve been trying to do more lately, with mixed success. Maybe my solitude times need to be more restful and packed with fewer hobbies, Idunno.
Card 3 - How to land well. Eight of Wands: Speed. So, full steam ahead—on taking a respite? I kinda did that last weekend, albeit I engaged in a surplus of hobbies during those 48 hours I did not leave the house.
The only way I can think of that this spread is not inherently contradictory is that it indicates struggles improving various life balances and the answer is to just go ahead and do what I need to do, but reading it that way, it doesn’t say much about what those things should be. Other than perhaps to dither about it less and just take the breaks when I need them. So, uh... interesting spread, I guess. I’m not sure what to make of it.
