This Blog (web log) is for Tarot lovers who are new to this field of experience as well as for me since I wanted to use it as a source of inspiration to boost my creativity...you see I am going through what is known as the 'writer's block'.
I love to write novellas and short stories so every day we'll pick a few cards to create a unique story with it's own blockage and pick another card or two to remove that blockage.
This system of learning lets us experience both sides of the process...the teacher and the seeker.
In short we'll teach ourselves!
STORYLINE - 4
Hello again! Time for story number 4!
The Plot - (The Hanged Man rev) + (8 of Wands rev)
The Blockage - (8 of Swords)
---------------------------------
A major arcana (The Hanged Man) indicates powerful forces beyond human control.
The number 8 from the wands suit and the swords suit again signify that in this story destiny will playing a major role...as the number 8 is ruled by the planet saturn which stands for karmic patterns...sacrifices...trials that have to be embraced and can not be denied.
---------------------------------
Since (The Hanged Man) shows a male who hangs upside down...let us take him as the hero of this story!
This card denotes sacrifices...events beyond our ability to control...but that does not mean we can not handle them...it is a known fact that the Creator never sends forth events which we can not handle...it is in our power to withstand the toughest of circumstances.
---------------------------------
The (8 of Wands) signifies movement...travel...sometimes unexpected events which make us breathless lol!
But since (The Hanged Man) and the (8 of wands) have appeared in reversal...something negative might have happened to our hero.
---------------------------------
I think he met with an accident and had to go through a long standing injury...which perhaps led to a physical deformation of some sort.
Now the blockage of the story is the (8 of Swords) which is a card of embarrassments...a sense of bondage...loss of will power...or simply a surrender to a hardship.
---------------------------------
I think our hero is too adaptable as he has given up hope of recovery and accepted an apparent fact that things will remain such forever...this is not advisable because the (8 of Swords) has fallen in the blockage position...which means the tarot urges him to have faith because help is at hand.
---------------------------------
The solution card turns out to be the (Page of Swords) which is ruled by the zodiac gemini...I don't think there could be any gemini on earth who hasn't been called (actually blamed to be) a charmer at some point of time!
The tarot says very soon our hero is going to look and feel irresistable and attractive...perhaps something is coming up or already cooking!
LOL!
