[Tarot] Dreams and signs, I'm on a strange incline

[balsamandash]

Iiiit's card draw time again! Yes, it was just card time a little while ago. Yes, the last card draw time lasted longer than I meant it to. But I'm still nervous about in-person readings for the festival this month and I'm hoping doing more draws now will prepare me for it a little better, so here we are.

I am offering free one-to-three card Tarot readings. Let me know if you have a question or a focus, and if you know how many cards you want or if I should choose. Feel free to ask questions if you're not sure; I'm happy to discuss and figure out what will fit best.

Decks available are under the cut, or, if you feel adventurous and want to help me test a gimmick -- give me your Hogwarts House and I'll draw from the appropriate deck! You can also let me pick the deck if you have no preference.

Or, if you'd rather pick yourself, this time around I have:
* Tarot Draconis
* Linestrider
* Ghosts and Spirits
* Robin Wood (testing; subject to being swapped out, but if you have a strong preference for it, I'll see what I can do)

Can I have a current state/action to take/direction it will take me spread for writing/work stuff? Or for spirituality stuff, 'cause we don't circle the same topics or anything.

As for houses, I have no idea, tbh. XD Go with what you'd put me under.

... Man I don't even know. I'm going with the angry deck since nobody else's request seems quite right for it. Gryffindor doesn't seem like the worst option. *shrugs*

And because I really need to test the angry deck, you get both. Also cause I love you most. Everyone else can deal. >>

WRITING/WORK:
Current State: Eight of Wands. Travel. Forward motion. Long road ahead and both excitement and trepidation to begin. You know where you want to go, and have a vague idea of the direction to wander in -- you're starting a new chapter.
Action to Take: The Page of Swords. Start! Think! Communicate! The pages are beginnings, and since your writing is words -- communication falls under the swords -- I'd say the message here is... well, what you've been getting everywhere. You know where you want to go. You just have to start. (Please don't hit me, I'm just the messenger.)
Direction It Will Take You: Three of Cups. Friendship, harmony, joy. You will be a lot happier once you've got the forward momentum going than you will sitting here stalled. I'd also take this as a good sign -- it may not be a road totally without bumps along the way, but I think the road to writing for yourself will be much smoother than the one you were on before.


I will come back with spirituality after I get a couple more done. <3

SPIRITUALITY:

Current State: The Hierophant. Tradition, religion, and often, teachers and study, which is I think what this represents for you -- you're in a place of learning, of seeking out information and figuring out where to get it from.

Action to Take: King of Pentacles. There are a couple of things this might mean; paired with the Hierophant, it could mean taking control of your own learning, rather than trying to find people to teachers. It could also mean time to get your hands dirty, so to speak; shift your focus from theory and consideration to practice; personally that's the interpretation I lean towards, as a step forward from the Hierophant's much less hands on teachings. On the flip side, it might signal a time to get your more grounded ducks in a row, and take care of the mundane side of life before you focus on the spiritual, which is an interpretation tied closer to the next card:

Direction It Will Take You: Justice. Balance, fairness, finding equality. You're going to find an equilibrium that satisfies you -- either in your spiritual practice or in balancing that with the life around it, I'm not sure.

Bonus card that flipped out of the deck: Three of Wands. The "hurry up and wait" card, but also a herald of good things coming; a spot of stasis, but with brightness on the horizon, if you can deal with how long it'll take for them to get there.
