Three of Spades

"The Three of Spades is a card of sudden resolution, the swift decision to take action in a seemingly minor matter. Whether this decision will be made by the Querent or by some other person in such a way as to affect him depends upon the position of the card in the spread. In either case the decision may be, or appear to be, motivated by vindictiveness or spite, rather than sustained judgment. 

"The Three of Spades may actually forewarn the Querent of a test or trial of his capacity to deal with unpleasant matters. Success in so doing may lead to improved conditions in business, better personal relationships and increased respect among his associates. Therefore, although the Three of Spades may forewarn of an episode which is temporarily disagreeable, it may be one which will work out to his benefit. Whenever the Three of Spades occurs in the spread, it is wise to explore the situation more deeply. As the Querent may have no knowledge of the shape that this minor misfortune may assume, he can be caught off balance and act to his own detriment. The Reader should discuss the problem with him in abstract terms in order that he may achieve a state of mind that will be helpful at the moment when he must cope with an irritating, humiliating or disappointing situation."

The appearance of the Three of Hearts is a warning that the pathway ahead is not straight, that there are pitfalls lying there to trip the unwary.  "The Three of Hearts may also warn of self-delusion. The Querent may have a subconscious knowledge that he is handicapping himself or causing himself unhappiness by his reluctance to make changes. For a variety of reasons he may be loath to face the situation or h

Reading #9: M. M.

The deck used was the Dun Huang pack. They were spread remotely. The spread is as shown above and laid out in the directions given by Wenzell Brown in his book How to Tell Fortunes With Cards .  I've altered my schema for this reading by only including the pertinent information for each card instead of highlighting it as in past readings. The meanings of each card can be found either in the click through link in the first mention of each in the synopsis or by searching for each card on the blog. Center Card :  "By and large, the central card (number 1) represents either the Querent (the sitter), his personality and the nature of his problems, or the primary influences which are moving through his life at the present moment." Ace of Clubs " The Ace of Clubs is a card of talent. It tells of high hopes and ambitions and denotes strong passions, imagination, energy and the power to communicate with others.
