Hello,

I'm bored tonight and thought it'd be interesting if I did something to take up some time and meet some folks on here in the process. I like to fool around with tarot cards every so often, and I've actually done online readings before- people ask a question or just say they want me to pull a card for them and interpret it, and I give them a wee reading. Its fun and its free, which is better than most places online or in general, where you gotta pay $20 to be told vague nonsense. I give you detailed nonsense! And you can still give me $20 if you're that impressed >.> hahaha

Just ask a question, whatever you feel like(and contrary to what a lot of people think, you can ask yes/no questions) , or just ask me to pull a random card for you and I'll read it in a reply. You can ask however many questions you want, or ask me to pull a certain amount of cards, its all up to you.

Just as a heads-up, I don't read the cards the way a lot of people do. In a lot of cases its more going on a personal feeling when revealing the card, or taking in the symbolism on the card and using it as an answer, than going by its meaning.



*spooky music* Let Madame Zyzzy reveal your future.... *dramatic fade-out*

Thank you. I think some of

Thank you. I think some of these are spot on, and it's not even with general things.. It intrigues me.

Saosin- thanks! It really is

Saosin- thanks! Smiling It really is interesting sometimes how accurate it can be! A friend/coworker will do year readings for people(a card for each month), and he did one for my boss a few years ago- they've known each other awhile, I met him through her- and for her January card he said that there would be a new addition to her family soon- could be a pregnancy, and the addition would be a child. Hell if last January her neice didn't get pregnant Sticking out tongue

Ravynn- sure! Laughing out loud It's fun and kind of addicting after awhile, LOL

For Ravynn:

Ace of Swords



The Ace of Swords is pretty much the only good card in the whole sword deck, so that alone is a sign of good luck xD Aces always represent success, good fortune and prosperity in varying ways. The ace of Swords represents clarity of mind and a flood of creativity... good news for writing and other artistic endeavors! Also helps in decision making, which may be important soon... there may be some things popping up in your life that are going to be difficult to deal with, but it won't be hard to find your way through if you keep your mind clear and open. Very little will be capable of stopping you from achieving your goals if you are determined, in other words Smiling

I liked my last reading. I'll

I liked my last reading. I'll try my luck and ask for another random draw? <3

For Ryff: Ace of

For Ryff:

Ace of Wands



You people are just all kinds of lucky, pulling aces left and right Sticking out tongue
Ace of Wands is, like all aces, a card of good fortune, opportunity and success. This could point towards an independant mind and a strong ability to lead, or be original, though there may also be the tendency to hide it, or even seem timid in some situations. If you let your strong suits show, you can get far- owner of a personal business, using your artistic talents to get into a university, gain recognition or work, etc. Anything is possible Smiling

For Ephra:

Four of Swords



There may have been some problems in your personal life lately, with yourself alone or due to issues with friends, family, encounters with others... whatever the problem is it's left you very stressed out, disoriented, clogged thinking, and its not making it easy to solve this thing. The best thing to do is simply retreat for a time... from the situation, from some of the troubles of daily life in order to get your thoughts in order, become calm, and sort things out. Meditation would be a useful tool. This card can stand for coming to terms with something, meditation/prayer to work out a major problem, and healing.

Hello there! I will feel

Hello there! I will feel awfull for asking, but I would love a random card. Perhaps later on, I can give you a question, but only if you're not busy and I actually come up with something good!

I actually own the same deck of cards, and I find it interesting how you use them. I'm no good at the "way you're supposed to use tarot-cards" and I find how you do it very interesting. Mine are only collecting dust atm, aw. But you kind of inspired me to look at them differently.

I'll be curious what your prediction for me will be!

Hi everybody! (hi dr. nick!)

Hi everybody!
(hi dr. nick!) lol


Sorry I haven't been doing this or on here much, I've been pretty sick. I'm finally over the nightmare flu, but the universe decided that wasn't enough for me and I've had a horrid ear infection... now my left eardrum might be ruptured. Sad I'm scared I might go deaf in that ear, all I can hear is static noise and loud ringing and it still hurts, even though I've been on antibiotics since Friday. Send me love, folks.
Mis's picture

Owww dang that sounds

Owww dang that sounds horrible! Ear infections are so damn painfull too.. I really hope they'll be able to fix you up. Would not be pleasant to go deaf.. Good luck! We'll send love your way.

YAY lol glad someone caught the Simpsons reference! x)
And thanks to you and everyone for the well-wishes. Now I know what tinnitus is like, and I have nothing but sympathy for people who deal with this their whole lives. Its maddening. You can't even just go to sleep, the ringing keeps you awake.

I'll get to your cards in a little, folks who asked for 'em. I'm just having a hard time concentrating on anything. Your readings would be something like "You got the queen of coins. There's a rich lady holding a bigass coin and there's birds and stuff all over the place so I guess if you go to an aviary or something you'll find a giant coin and your life will be great woo" xD
Apeldille's picture

I would like to have a card

I would like to have a card drawn, if you're still doing this and it isn't too much trouble...

Hope the ear infection gets better, sounds awful :/

Zyzzy's picture

Wow. I let this slide

Wow. I let this slide forever. I'm sorry! The ear nonsense is finally over- eardrum didn't rupture, I couldn't hear because my ear swelled completely shut for some reason. Blood vessels behind it burst and caused another infection, I've developed an immunity to certain antibiotics they put me on- its been an interesting couple weeks at the doctor's every few days. But it's done, finally. Unfortunately now I'm broke and out of a job to boot. I must have done something to piss off some cosmic entity lately xD

But that's why I've been ignoring this. For awhile I was just never home between school, work and doctors, and the resulting I-have-no-money panic wouldn't have made for good readings. xD But things are being taken a step at a time... for now I'm looking at it as being on a vacation, haha! So I have a free night, I finally took the deck out of the car, so here we go!

For Matthew:

Page of Wands



Good news may be coming your way soon, most likely something about a family member or a close friend- possibly even reconnecting with someone you've lost touch with, and been trying to get in touch with for some time. Something- or someone- new will be making their way into your life soon.

Zyzzy's picture

For Sleepiest: The High

For Sleepiest:


The High Priestess, Inverted



Upright, the High Priestess often represents holding or gaining great knowledge- whether good or bad- control, personal journeys and enlightenment. Upside down, the card often represents a loss of control in life, or the feeling that you're losing grasp of things you once held firmly. Things might be a bit shaken up in your life right now, or seem like they're falling apart and you can't control or help any of the things happening around you, making everything very frustrating and most likely taking a great toll on you. The card is still about a journey, albeit a difficult one... taking it may answer questions, put things back in order, or at least give you the knowledge and experience to come out the other end having gained something from it all.
Zyzzy's picture

For Unplugged: Question 1:

For Unplugged:


Question 1: How do I grow as a person?


The Emporer


Six of Pentacles



The Emporer suggests power, dominance, leadership and control. Find ways to develop confidence in yourself and your interests/hobbies/work, work towards becoming more outspoken, more comfortable with speaking your mind and sharing ideas and opinions, and of course, standing behind what you think and believe. Of course, there's a fine line between asserting yourself and gaining confidence, and becoming self-absorbed and arrogant. The next card suggests some of the opposite of what the Emporer does- be humble, put others before yourself, be kind and charitable- making a balance of good qualities that work together for brilliant self-growth and discovery.

TLDR- consider qualities you might want to improve, or need in your life, and guide yourself towards becoming those things in thought and action.

---------------------------------------------


Question 2: How can I heal others?

Knight of Cups



Two great analogies for a healing, caring, vigilant person- a knight and water. Water cleans wounds, helps heal, helps one live. Water is fluid and adapts to all circumstances, fits itself for all purposes. It can be both calm and soothing, and incredibly powerful. And the knight, of course, is an age-old symbol of protection, chivalry, strength and honor. This card is describing someone more than its suggesting something- you have these qualities already, whether you're aware of it or not. You have the capability to help and heal the people around you, in action and in word, to protect people from whatever may be troubling them with your presence alone, and share kindness, warmth and laughter with them. Healing comes in many forms, and you already have quite a few at your disposal in your personality. You need not change a thing.

I would be greatful if you

I would be greatful if you could do one for me.

Misako- Don't feel bad for

Misako- Don't feel bad for asking- is the point of this post, after all! I feel bad for letting it just sit for so long xD I'm not sure if anyone who's asked for a card lately will even see this! I hope so. And I'm glad you're interested in picking up the cards again! Glad I helped in some way Smiling


For Misako:

I picked a few cards, because I needed an explanation about the reasoning for one of them...

Card #1- The Tower



Card #2: Queen of Wands



The first card suggests something major is about to happen, that may seem negative or have a bad impact on your life at first. At the least, it will seem like things have been flipped upside down for you for awhile. I can't suggest what in particular this event might be, like I did with other readings- I can't tell. But The Tower always suggests a very powerful, sometimes negative or destructive, event unfolding in someone's life. The second card, however, shows that even this will pass, whatever it may be, and things will return to normal- you will come out the other end of this ordeal stronger and wiser, and possibly even grateful for what you experienced and learned in this ordeal. Things will go from storms to sunshine in your life.

For Tullow:


King of Cups


The King of Cups is a literal fountain of creativity, imagination, and growth in perspective and ideas. A new outlook on life, your ideas, your beliefs and all aspects of your life will come in with experience and maturity, which are coming to you all the time. You may discover something new in an old idea and run with it again, creating something new and exciting in your life and others' as well. Artistic creativity is a major theme, and you might find yourself taking up art in ways you never have before. In short, new ideas and opportunities may come flooding towards you... be prepared and take advantage!

For Apeldille:

Page of Cups



Something is going to happen, or come into your life, when you least expect it. This is a good thing-good news, a great opportunity you'd thought you lost or never imagined getting a chance at, a sudden decision being made that greatly affects your life, maybe even where you live. All in all, good things are coming your way, in big amounts and in ways you might not expect!

Two of cups



There might be a chance encounter for you coming up soon... finally running into someone you haven't seen for a long time, or have been thinking about, getting a call or a letter/email from an old friend... there's also the potential to make amends with someone who's parted ways with you, or vice versa- someone may come to you looking for reconciliation and to renew friendship.



This is really interesting.

Oh! I managed to catch this thread, I had been looking for it a while ago. I'm glad to hear your ear problems are sorted, I had an ear infection a while ago and although it wasn't as bad as that they are pretty hateful. :/

Thank you for the card, these are so interesting! I find it strange it strange that I have been wanting some sort of change for a while now. If you don't mind, I might be back to pester you with a yes/no question, I'm fascinated by these things. XD;

Tullow- by all means ^__^ I like that this is still a well-read thread. I didn't think it was gonna get even a few comments, now there's 2 pages! xD I'm glad people like this.

For Mini:

Eight of Wands


There might be important choices that need to be made soon- or there may simply be too many, or overwhelming choices that you feel you can't make, causing uncertainity of what to do or what to say, for fear of choosing the wrong path. It will take time and thought, and of course determination, but you will be able to make the right choice in the end, one that will affect you positively overall and probably change some things in a big way.

Hey whenever you get a

Hey whenever you get a moment, could you draw another card for me? (and if you'd like me to draw one for you from my deck, let me know)

The question I have this time is:

"What can I do to be more assertive?"


------------------

In related news, I decided to draw a card for myself just out of curiosity without a question. I happened to get the Page of Coins, which is funny because I believe the first time I ever drew a card with this deck, it was that same card.

I have now started to notice some similarities. I'm not superstitious but I had these observations:

The Coins suite is associated with the Earth element, which is the element I most associate with since I'm a geologist.

I also learned that the Coins suite corresponds to the Diamonds suite in a deck of playing cards. The Diamonds suite happens to be my favorite suite, with my favorite card being the 7 of Diamonds, although maybe I could also associate with the Jack of Diamonds since it's close to the Page of Coins. Maybe I'll look into this.

Lastly, on the artwork for the Coins suite in my deck, you see reoccurring labyrinths appear. I actually have a stone with a labyrinth etched in. How odd is that?
Zyzzy's picture

Wow, that is quite a

Wow, that is quite a coincidence! Its definitely worth taking note of, at the very least. I'm not too superstitious either, but sometimes the message is practically hitting you in the head, in cases like this xD That's really cool how that happened! Lets see what else turns up. Eye


Question: What can I do to be more assertive?

Two of Pentacles



That answer isn't easy... its a goal with no simple steps to follow to get where you want fast. Of course you know this, but the card I drew points it out quite well in its state of neutrality. But, it also has a lesson... balance yourself- your mind, your emotions, etc. To do that means taking a lot of time to think about yourself, your personality, how you react to things and why, why that started and whether you like that or not. To truly be aware of yourself is the starting point of change, and from there balance is most important, especially when it comes to being assertive. Assertion is the sign of a strong-willed, determined and confident person- in the right amounts. Take it too far and you will become simply aggressive and difficult to be around. The soft-spoken, gentle qualities are necessary to balance out the strong-willed mind and proud voice. Work on attaining one, and also work on blending what you already have into it. How this will happen however, is difficult to say. Its a very personal journey, only you know what to make of it- but this could be a starting point.
quadraptor's picture

Funny how the Coins/Pentacles

Funny how the Coins/Pentacles suite popped up again.

And from the reading you wrote there, I can actually understand what to do and how to do it. Here is what I think the card is trying to tell me -

As you may know I follow Buddhism in addition to Christianity. Of what I've learned from Buddhism, Zen, and Bodhisattva, balance is key to focusing one's mind, finding peace and harmony, and ultimately becoming enlightened. I have been struggling emotionally, as you have seen, and so to become assertive, I need to become more centered. I'm a very passive person, very soft spoken, so I need to find more confidence, especially in defending what I believe in, but without getting to that point of aggression. Often when I speak my mind, I quickly remove what I have written or spoken if I feel like I have offended someone. And lately I have realized that there will be someone offended no matter what you say. It is this I need to learn.

So what I am getting out of your reading is that I need to try to return to my meditations to find the answer. I stopped meditating for about a month now because I got a strange feeling that there was another presence in my room, and since then I have been afraid that may happen again. I need to get back into meditating, even if it is a different way than what I did that night, and perhaps then I can find balance, neutrality, and assertiveness.

Thanks, this really helped!

Oh, wow. This is so

Oh, wow. This is so interesting.

For Ravynn- Page of Wands


The Page of Wands is a great 'good news' card. The Pages are often heralds, and their messages can go either way... for this card, in this situation, its a call for good news! The message I personally got was that you may hear from someone you've been waiting to for some time now, be it for personal reasons, a job, any opportunity or reason. This is also a good symbol of a very creative person- events in your life may lead you, if they haven't already done so, to do something great with any talents or skills you have, especially in the arts. His message is one full of possibilities for the near future Smiling

Sure, Kasmir! I'll do both readings, in separate comments.

For Kasmir
Question: Is this going to go the way I planned?

Card: Ten of Swords


Unfortunately, it doesn't seem as if what you have planned will work out as you're hoping. I can't say much more without knowing more about the situation itself... but despite this being a scary card, it doesn't necessarily mean instant doom- this card may simply be saying that your current approach isn't the best one for the situation, and the end result may not be what you expect. Take time to reflect on the situation at hand and reflect on yourself, and maybe reroute a bit. You may find that another method is best, and will have a better result for everyone, especially you. This card has another important message, that one must let go, and accept that the circumstances are what they are. To no longer resist change or sudden, maybe unwanted developments, but simply allow them to happen, even if they may be unpleasant initially. With change comes renewal, after all.
Zyzzy's picture

And now the random card for

And now the random card for Kasmir-

Card- Judgement


This card actually ties in a bit with the last one- the Judgement card is one of introspection, and also one that heralds change. This card signifies that great changes may come soon- old doors will be closed for good and new ones will open in their wake, and opportunities will arise. This card also deals with difficult, and final, decisions. You may be faced with something you don't want to, or think you can, make a decision on, but it must be done, and you have all the ability and strength to accept what is going to come, and to make that decision and let something new begin.

For BrokkenSaint-

Queen of Wands


This is a very positive, powerful card, and often is a descriptor card for a person's personality- or in some cases, a signal of what a person wishes to be, or can be if they make the right changes in their life. The Queen of Wands is someone with tremendous strength and confidence, and great personal wealth- not monetary, though that may be the case as well, but more in the emotional and spiritual senses. Someone who is very friendly, kind, charitable and compassionate. The Queen of Wands tends to portray a very artistic, open-minded personality as well, and someone who has many skills, who may be quite capable of making a living from their talents.

This may simply be a card that describes you, or one that describes what you can become if you allow the changes to come to you. Sometimes this card is pulled for people who are very shy, or lack a sense of self-confidence, despite having great talents and an ability to do wonderful things, or lead others if they allow themselves to open up.

For Selruil- Two of

For Selruil- Two of Swords



There may be a tough decision that needs to be made coming up in the near future, or possibly in your life already. Its also possible that there's a disagreement or some kind of issue between either another person and yourself, or two people you are close to, with you as a mediator of sorts. In either situation, or in any, this card signifies a difficulty in life, with you not quite knowing what direction to take next, or what should be done. This card suggests to build up trust in your intuition and good judgement, and to take time, however much is needed, despite any pressure that may be on you, to think on things, reflect and look at yourself and the situations at hand, in order to make a sound decision with a clear heart and mind.
