A common Tarot reading problem solved

Many readers shy away from reading for themselves, since they prefer to deal with what they need, but it's very easy to just see what you want. This, however, may not be such a bad thing - as I show you - before considering a solution.

Hello, I was pleased to find you again while searching for a card. I'd really like to hear your opinions on the 8 of swords, much like you did for the 8 of cups. I'm really really interested in what the 8 of swords is all about and I've failed to find anything worth interest online. Keep up the videos, they're great.

@MartyrLoserKing Can you email me bllntr at yahoo dot com and I'll send you a link for a video about this card that you can download?

@johnballantrae001 So question is: How will the meeting go? 3 of Cups rev.

Upright, it would have shown people getting along, celebrating.

It's rev. so maybe an important person didn't make it to the meeting; or people let personal differences get in the way; or maybe you prepared for the wrong audience, so you should find out who will be attending and prepare.

I once watched a fireman talking to a room of 9 year old children like he was talking to City Hall reps. It did not go well.

@joeschvanm I'm sure it's true part of the time, but I don't know if I would see it as a rule or a law that always applies.

In reading a reversed card, you might say: If the card were upright, it would show this. However, it's reversed so something else is going on - and explain this other form.

I'm running out of space so I'll give an example right now in another reply.

@joeschvanm That's ok. If you'd like to have a conversation, I'm always happy to talk about the Tarot. You say you don't want to bring up 'wrong' theories, but maybe they're not so wrong, and there's a chance that others can learn from a discussion and so clear up some of their own confusion. We sometimes have to get lost before we discover the simple way.

@joeschvanm Somehow I get messages, but when I go to reply, they have been removed - but I didn't remove them. Can the person who comments remover what they have posted?

I don't have a problem with reading for myself. I can't always get the answer to the question I ask but the cards aren't meant to take away our life experience. There are some things we have to do and learn ourselves. If I don't see a direct answer I pay attention to the cards that have come up - I figure those are things I need to be paying attention to
