The weekly Spread which i borrowed from berrieh from tarotforum.net. My results are postede below

............4..................................5.. ...........9..............................2................... ............8..............................1................... ............7............3..................................6.. .............

1-Me & My Approach This Week (This is who I am within the context of this week, what my 'natural' approach will be)
2-How I Should Approach This Week
3-How my Beliefs Impact This Week
4-My Emotions This Week
5-My Thoughts This Week
6-What Happens This Week
7,8,9-Flow of Energy

This WeekNotes:#3 is "impact" because theoretically this relates to core beliefs that don't change, not simply conscious beliefs we can alter. #6 is usually something very literal, for me, as it's meant to be quite a mundane position. Whereas 7,8,9 aren't specific events, but just energies at play. Most of the time I read crazy Elemental Dignities with this, though I don't think it's wholly necessary, as I didn't used to. It does enrich it for me, though. #3 relates to Wands, #4 to Cups, #5 to Swords, #6 to Coins, and I read the cards as ill-dignified if the energy doesn't mesh with the "position" suit. I also read the 3 cards along the side as a "flow" so if they clash, I read them ill-dignified.

Shaka's go at the spread

{} = why the card might be related to me & notes to self

1.(3'swords)
Heartbreak, emotional distress. Not seeing the effects of what happened clearly. I might go through a sudden pain like a betrayal/failure at something. Plus, I may be going to let someone down. {my prelim results are going to be returned this week. i might be in big trouble}

2. (The Star)
I must have hope and not despair. If I've not been giving my all, it's time to start. The 7 stars (1 big, 6 small) represent the 7 chakras and there is a need to open my chakras and clear my mind {time to do chakra meditation tml}. I must have courage and hope. Great love will be given {by my mummy's efforts in helping me despite my temper}. {I must have wisdom, spiritual enlightenment, progress to my goals knowing that they're there. Open my heart, release my fears, do the best I can and don't look back. Look forward}

3. (The Tower)
I'll go through a sudden change either by being surprised or by being in chaos. I might have an emotional outburst/let everything go. I'll be humbled and suffer a blow to my ego afer realiseing a sudden truth/burst of insight/see everything in a flash {my prelim results might be disastrous. either that or ill suddenly understand all the facts i learned from any subject this year as a whole} I might get a rude awakening ><.. But it's best to tear it all down and rebuild wtvr has gone wrong {studied too hard for some subjects but neglected others like chemistry, math and history} 4. (The Emperor) I'll be restless, bored, discontent. This card's the card indicating that "I am the boss and control my own life" So i have to reflect on what i've done so far as i might become demandinng, unreasonable & unhappy. {I have been using too much of the computer and slacking off on other subjects. MEEPIT ><

4. (The Emperor)I'll be restless, bored, discontent. This card's the card indicating that "I am the boss and control my own life" So i have to reflect on what i've done so far as i might become demandinng, unreasonable & unhappy. {I have been using too much of the computer and slacking off on other subjects. MEEPIT >< stop it!! bakashaka! I'll be in control of my life so i'm going to have to be serious, study, study AND STUDY! No time to relax as i must rule my own life, much like the emperor in the card with dignity.. instead of being a couch potato}
5. (Knight' Pentacles)Just like the knight, i might be prudent and careful, fearing risks. I'll be willing to look at facts and see what's wrong before accessing the situation and taking a gloomy view {avoid the gloomy view part! I have to study hard and pursue my goals with tremendous stamina and conviction. As i give up halfway sometimes be it building lego/ trying something new, it's time to refuse to quit. i.e. stop giving careless work that are late or incomplete.} I have to take time to care and be persistant. {Look ahead, do my best, study hard and never. ever. give up.}
6. (Knight' Cups)I'll be using my imagination and tapping into the deepest levels of emotions. BUT i might be prone to illusion. My melodramatic moods may expand and my emotions might get the better of me {SHAKA! self control!!!} I'll be too temperamental and take offense easily {shoot.. i already am becoming like that. by getting moody when i get annoyed by the slightest thing and brushing it off with the excuse of "oh it's the stress of o lvls" I HAVE TO STOP AND CONTROL MYSELF!} I must rule my life by common sense, not emotions. {Might like to do a poem to regain my energy, express my feelings and take some time to reflect on my life. Time to change for the better}
7. (King' Swords)I'll grasp info quickly and completely, cut through mental fog and confusion and have to take simlar actions such as thinking up solutions, remaining honest, communicate well & judge fairly. This card advises caution for me. {seems like all the cards so far are indicating tt sth bad is about to happen but to have hope and press on in order to succeed. Rmbr that only when cards 7-9 seem to match the flow will they be considered as accurate}
8. (Justice)
The card insists on justice, reponsibilty, truth acknowledging, determining the right action, choosing with awareness, accepting the results that I have created and make connection between events {if i did badly, accept it, reflect and understand how to do better nxt time}I have to do what needs to be done as the time has come for me to accept responsibility , weigh matters and make important desicions. What i do now will affect my future and if i do nothing, i will be hurt in future. The card represents karma. {just like how i slacked, im likely to get my due reults through doing badly. but if i brush up, then the karma will turn for the better}
9. (6'swords)After the first shock of a psyychological blow I might enter a state of numbness, feeling lost and disconnected. I'll experience low level sadnenss and feel listless. I'll be dealing with the effects of trauma and feel hope again, {I must enter a new frame of mind} While the situation is not ideal, I am moving toward a more positive place where changes in the air & new, more hopeful conditions lie ahead. {Go for change, trust my instincts, move forward toward the place I really want to go as my goals and dreams lie in my hands}
{All the 9 cards have a similar aura about them, foretelling a downfall but advising change and hope. the 2nd card especially matched the qs and other cards very well by indicating the need for hope occur.}
[COLOR="Red"][B]I've got a strong feeling that my reading is going to come true if i had read it correctly as my prelims had some killer papers. Please help me read and correct/give advise on my readings thanks[/B][/COLOR]
and does anyone know where to by sage oil/ incense?

Im gna sleep w 1 tarot card tt feel like choosing occasionally and shall update on my dreams..

So ytd, I slept with the card (THE LOVERS), from the major arcana. I rarely dream about interesting stuff.. But this time round, I dreamt about ****e, a guy tt ive gt a crush on..

I can't really rmbr the full dream but in it, I was jogging along a path.. think it seemed to be the bedok reservoir path .. and suddenly, there's this tall guy in black who jogged by and said "Hey candice!"... i looked at him but couldn't recognize him since i only know how he looks like when he's in his costume and makeup. So i went "u are?".. he went "****e, can't recognize me?" Afterward i think we carried on jogging tgt or sth

Interesting things
1.ive only been to bdk reservoir abbt 3 times
2. i don't dream about guys normally... I usually dream about school related stuff
3. why.. was i jogging =.=

My interpretation
I probably only know his other side when I met him.. but nt the side he might show. It is safest to just watch him from afar as the bdk reservoir was deserted when we jogged off tgt, indicating that sth bad might happen. I didn't dream about girls, so.. im straight -.-" ... that was a lousy interpretation i guess... but in truth i guess id rather be his friend than do anything that might spoil the friendship, furthermore, he's about 4 yrs older than me...

Comments to readers
sry if it was a boring interpretation. But im gna carry on till i finished all 78 cards of the tarots (nt everyday since my o lvls are coming). if you have any idea what my dream might have meant, do post a comment/ leave a tag. thx!

Here's an introduction to my tarot cards

I only own 1 deck, the gilded tarot

my tarot's pouch

A reading of the spiritual compass spread which i have so far only tried once

The Spiritual Compass Spread

4 of pentacles card (recording my readings)

The sun card (recording my readings)

4 of cups. Notice that it is a reversed card (upside down). Interpretations for reversed cards have to be different as compared to the right side up cards

My tarots HOME!!! ^-^ green little storage box.

My star sign is the Sagittarius and the planet that rules the sign of Sagittarius is Jupiter. And Jupiter in greek is actully Zeus.. So this is wt an astrology site said abbt Jupiter & Sagittarius relations A love of freedom, new experiences,generosity, and expansiveness allows its children to grow through impositions and challenges. The children of Jupiter has a sense of legal justice whether man made or natural. A relationship with the universe in the form of religion and philosophy is provided by the planet Jupiter. Jupiter protected the city of Rome and he both blessed warriors as they went off to war and then greeted them when they returned from the battle. He had the power to punish and reward them, he was also a frequent hurler of thunderbolts. It can make its children overly-optimistic, self indulgent and conceited. Jupiter is associated with the sign of Sagittarius and once it was also associated with Pisces,

On the downside: Arrogancy, Lack of Humility, Bigoted, Careless, Lawless.

Your good qualities include: Lovingly Optimistic, Jovial, Generous, Philosophical, Lucky. The betterment of humanity through integration of your beliefs and aspirations will be your lifes work Your color is PURPLE Your metal the unyielding IRON from our earth. those in red match my personality 100%
