The Lost Faith Of An Unjust Knight!

Afternoon...

Today's cards were as follows:

Reverse 5 of pentacles: This card represents a loss of wealth or faith. In reverse it represents to me that the need for faith has increased, that money has been sacrificed for another or has been lost in order to put something right.

Reverse Justice: representative of an injustice or bias.

Knight of wands: The knight in search of inspiration He moves at speed but without great direction, he finds the journey to be just as rewarding as the outcome. He is enthusiastic, confident, successful, he is creative and artistic. He has no regrets, he sees everything happens for a reason, that everything is a lesson to learn from. He is linked to the zodiac sign of Sagittarius the hunter.

Together these cards indicate I should attempt to look within my self and do some deep soul searching. I feel I have been under the scrutiny of someone who is judging me on preformed ideas and that isn't looking at the here or now. The final message is that whatever this person decides I should not feel ashamed or regret anything I have, or have not, done!

Blessed be!

The Knight Judged A Rest Was In Order

Okay today has been manic!

Here are the cards:

Reverse Judgement, reverse three of wands and reverse knight of penticals.

Reverse Judgement: Judgement is all about self-reflection and inner understanding. It is about acknowledging our past mistakes, learning from them and becoming better. It can also indicate a time when our actions are being scrutinized by someone else important (a boss, friend, family member, etc). However today I drew it in reverse. In this position the card can represent shame and regret, being unwilling to look at past mistakes and learn due to the damage it would seem to do to ones ego! It may also mean that I am being judged by someone unjustly or unfairly.

Reversed Three of wands: This three indicates the time after plans have been put into motion where we sit back and watch the progress. It indicates a time where not much physical work needs doing, but we are still need to steer the project and keep it on course. To me in reverse this card symbolises that I assume that the previous meaning is true however there is much work left to do.

Reverse Knight of pentacles: This knight as I have previously mentioned stands for taking ones time doing things right and completing tasks, challenges and jobs. In reverse he warns I'm moving too slow, that perfection is getting in the way of the possibility of completing a task before it's deadline and that if I wish to succeed then I must pick up the pace.

Together these cards portray the message that I have moved slowly and missed a chance with my creative muses...on top of this it indicates I am now too ashamed/egotistical to admit the failure...this is very common for me as I am a Taurus born in the year of the horse (both stubbon signs) and will never admit I am in the wrong!

Good bye for today!

Blessed be!

Foolish Justice Delivered at Knight!

Today's spread consisted of Justice, the Knight of swords and The Fool in reverse.

I drew it this morning and then sat on the bus on the way into uni pondering it. I'm not going to lie...I find 3 card spreads difficult; there's just too little structure for me and I usually have to spend some time working things through in my head.

Justice (XI): This one is easy. Justice is often portrayed as a blindfolded woman holding a set of scales and the sword of truth. She judges with logic and reasoning, using truth to cut through the lies and illusions which may surround an issue. Justice is blind; neither interested nor swayed by appearance. Cold hard facts, that's all she is interested in and she is willing to dissect every minute detail of a situation to extract them.

The Knight of swords: The knight on a quest for knowledge and wisdom. Though very different concepts he holds both in high sted. Unfortunately he is infused with the element of air and linked quite often to the zodiac sign of Gemini. He is quick to act, sometimes hasty and is incredibly ambitious. He describes action and goal-oriented thinking. I feel a strong connection with this card at the moment and see myself as the armoured sword barer.

The Reverse Fool (0): The fool represents a deep set need to change one's own life, in reverse he tells me that he is not yet ready to make that change. He tells me that he still has doubts and is not yet ready to throw caution to the winds and let go. He may be trying to tell me that something can be salvaged from his current situation, or that he needs some form of reassurance that someone will catch him if he falls.

At the moment I am supposed to be selecting my 3rd year project for university, but feel unprepared and rushed. I am unwilling to make a definitive choice and stick with it. I feel worried that I will make the wrong choice and so do not wish to make one at all.

It's okay, however, the cards tell me that I am rushing and that slowing down is acceptable. They tell me that I will make a good choice if I base my thoughts on pure facts and spend time looking at all the possibilities. They warn I should not involve emotions into my choice (least of all panic) but instead only logic and reasoning should be utilised. This is a relief as I have been quite worried recently. I shall organise to see my tutor as this is the most wise and logical thing to do.

Oh and as for my first reading...wow today sure rang true; no lecture notes or handouts, just pure note taking. Ouch!

Blessed be

A six, a three and an eight.

Hi again,

So I was in a rush this morning and was unable to do my spread before I left for uni. Therefore I'm going to have to do it now.

Today's 3 cards (no jumpers today) were drawn as follows: The six of swords, the reverse three of swords and the eight of wands.

The six of swords (the boat): This indicates; moving on from stormy seas and leaving behind problems and difficulty; sailing into much calmer waters. My student loan was paid into my account just this morning. I have been living off of less than fifteen pounds for over a week now and I must admit it was causing me quite a lot of anxiety. The six here is obviously referring to these old and new situations which is quite pleasant to hear :O).

Reverse three of swords (the heartache): After 8 years this is the first time I have ever drawn this card in reverse. I must admit I had to look up the meaning online :OS. Apparently this card in reverse can indicate errors made whilst confused, mental anxiety (which I have already mentioned) and distraction/loss of focus. I feel that the cards are trying to draw my attention to a mistake I have made in my finances/budget during this time in which I have been under pressure. I shall certainly go through all my records and statements to see if I can uncover any issues which I have previously missed.

Eight of Wands (the choice): For me the eight of wands indicates the need for selection/choice. It draws attention to the projects one has going on in their lives and tries to get the quarant to notice how many things they are juggling. It also informs them that a choice is needed and that all but one project should be cut loose. Trying to run with everything will only cause the failure of ALL the projects. Whereas the selection of one will ensure it's success. I have a couple of projects on the go at the moment all of which are costing me money (e.g I am trying to put together an alter). I think in this situation the eight is telling me 'one thing at a time' and that attempting to buy everything at once is only going to lead to me getting into financial trouble.

I'm going to go away and ponder on this reading a little more. Try and make a choice. Try and find and correct my mistake.

As for yesterdays reading...well today's lecture was easy...but it was only a recap lecture and the course looks set to get very nasty very quickly...looks like my cards where right about 1 thing :oS.

Blessed be.
