Tanamous' Past-to-Future Reading

Date of Reading: Sep 28, 2024


Past Life: 5 of Swords
Underlying energy: The Emperor

https://imgur.com/a/tanamous-past-life-5LOysUC

Commentary:

5 of Swords is typically one of conflict. While not a great experience to live through it is often one way a life gets rid of burdensome karma so the soul can move forward. JMG has often written about this and Sri Arya agrees with him.

Sri Arya has this to say about 5 of Swords:

Such disasters are karmic challenges to overcome. Spiritually, it represents the sacrifices and struggles needed to break through to higher levels of awareness. In that sense, a very useful high energy card. In mundane terms, it is a disaster. Making resourceful use of an apparent disaster and its debris. Seeing opportunities and value in what has been discarded or abandoned. An impasse, not a victory, but that is the just outcome. A phase of reorganization and reorienting one's priorities. Being disappointed in people. In an extreme case of assault, the need to fight back savagely. Being cleared of wrongdoing and gossipy insinuations. Traditional meanings of attending a funeral and accidents waiting to happen are very germaine. Be careful what you pray for - you might get it!

Between: The Empress
Underlying energy: 3 of Pentacles

Commentary:

The Empress is about abundance so the prior life succeeded in burning off a lot of negative karma. The underlying energy for the Empress is 3 of Pentacles - work.

One tarot website I used to use put the energy of 3 of Pentacles very well:

An emphasis on the fundamentals of hard work and the fulfillment of seeing a job done well. Advancement and new opportunities come through diligence and perseverance.

Present Life: The Hierophant
Underlying energy: 6 of Pentacles

https://imgur.com/a/tanamous-present-life-o6QzBY0

Commentary:

The current life is about continuing to work on the soul to "level up". Six of Pentacles is also indicating the querant may be receiving quiet assistance on occasion from other beings - either human or divine or most likely, both - in this endeavor.

Future Possibility: Page of Swords
Underlying energy: Queen of Cups

https://imgur.com/a/tanamous-future-life-possibility-6VrhZo9

Commentary:

Page of Swords often means delayed news so I am wondering if this is indicating the querant may "take a breather" before incarnating again? JMG may be right that the span between lives is going back to more traditional wait times as birthrates continue to fall.

It could also simply be indicating that the next life will be very good at speaking persuasively.

Sri Arya writes about Page of Swords,

Skillful people. Dexterous and creative. Supple imaginations. Insightful and transformative. Extreme curiosity about everything. The born diplomat. The socially miscible fount of information. News about legal matters or governments. Silver-tongued speakers. Persuasive and conciliatory. Energetic and intelligent people. Thirst for knowledge. Matters dealing with documents, contracts, agreements. Indicates need for change, especially in ideas and attitudes. Exciting and interesting friends. Are not taken in or fooled by glitter and honeyed words. Precocious or young people of high intelligence. Internet friendships. A dispute/resolution specialist or negotiator, provided the stakes are not too high. Multi-taskers. Ability to convey blunt truths without offending people.

The Underlying energy is Queen of Cups

Sri Arya writes:

Potential for deep spiritual transformation. Extremely good healers and therapists. Emotional, empathetic and intuitive approach to matters. Passionate and warm people. Loyal and supportive. Deep emotional depths give words peculiar authority. Able to make emotional connections with people at non-verbal level. Nurturing. Unconditional love. Kindness and empathy. Emotional harmony. Great decoder of emotional web that exists between people. Calm and patient usually. Attractive personality because of empathy. Deep emotional involvement with other people, not necessarily a love bond. Letting go of past hurts, anger, grief, disappointments and grudges. Highly self-aware and very tolerant of others' failings. Promote and nurture family. Very artistic, but perhaps not as much as they think!

Commentary:

There is also the possibility this is indicating the next life will be female. If not female then as a male who will still be able to embody many of the capabilities the Queen of Cups is known for.


***************************************Major Arcana Combos:*****************************

The Empress + The Hierophant :

Parents and teachers. The attention of a guardian. Good advice that should probably be heeded. Motherly protection. A sense of security. Guidance from a kind person.


The Empress + The Emperor :

World leaders. A couple with prestige and power. An anniversary of marriage. A long enduring relationship between man and woman. Parents. Worldly success. A lasting bond of companionship. Parents, especially of grown children. The rulers of a nation.


The Emperor + The Hierophant :

One who seeks to influence others through words and ideas. An orator, a leader. A spokesman. One who explains the intentions of another. A translator or translation of a significant literary work.


***************************************

First Card: Mars Dir_Above card 45 - p. 118

https://imgur.com/a/tanamous-mars-dir-above-card-45-EcHkZca

"Mars inherits its name directly from the Roman god of war, and so it is only natural that it should influence those qualities necessary in a warrior - drive, energy, power, passion, and courage."

Commentary:

I believe this is an indication that Mars is particularly active in some way in Tanamous' daily activities.

Second Card: Saturn Dir_Above card 49 - p. 126

https://imgur.com/a/tanamous-saturn-dir-above-card-49-hULDiDC

"The energies of Saturn show us where the boundaries lie so that we can either choose to stay within them or push them to their limit. This planet also rules over time-consuming and patient tasks such as gardening and agriculture, knowing that the results of hard work are worth it in the end."

Commentary:

Again, I believe this is an indication of stellar phenomena at work on the querant.


Third Card: Time of Day: Sunset Dir_West card 24 - p. 72

https://imgur.com/a/tanamous-time-of-day-sunset-dir-west-card-24-LbQYkcD

"If the Above appears, then allowing the stresses of the day to melt away may allow the inspiring stellar energy of the upper world to be felt."

Commentary:

Whatever troubles are happening let them go at the end of the day. If this is done higher celestial influences will have more pathways to work with the querant. Also, again, this makes me think querant may actually be receiving occasional, quiet, in-the-background assistance from the divine.

Layered:

https://imgur.com/a/all-3-cards-layered-5MaANNR

Commentary:

All three cards are indicating the current 'stellar weather' for the solar system are having an effect on the querant. Patience is good for this time as eventually the solar system will settle into its new location.

Overall this is a positive reading.

RandomActsofKindness Past-to-Future Reading


Date of Reading: Sep 28, 2024

Past Life: The Star
Underlying energy: 6 of Cups

https://imgur.com/a/randomactsofkindness-past-life-VdiUy9B

Commentary:

A good combo. The Star is one of the best Major Arcana cards in the deck as it both looks to upcoming good future and tends to be celestial in nature.

Sri Arya says,

Self-confidence and inner strength to achieve all reasonable goals are available. It is a superlative spiritual energy. Waite called it 'Gifts of the Spirit' - but of so high a level that worldly rewards are just moderate at best...
Feeling in touch with something larger than yourself - call it Universe, God or Force. Beneficient and peaceful energy in all situations, but don't go looking for loads of money. Success is certain but not just yet. A heartening and joyful card.


Commentary:

I believe this is indicating the current life is not the first one to take up spiritual practices. The life immediately prior also did spiritual practices. 6 of Cups is about happiness which is often one outcome of doing spiritual practices.


Between: Knight of Wands
Underlying energy: King of Cups

https://imgur.com/a/randomactsofkindness-between-life-p7mJVGF

Commentary:

The energy is that of someone on a mission. Knight of Wands is someone who has a purpose they want to accomplish. King of Cups is the king of emotional balance even in bad times and so isn't easy to knock about. This combo clearly tells me the current incarnation is about bringing the five elements of the body and mind into greater balance.

Sri Arya writes of King of Cups,

Very accurate instincts but only average intuition. They read people well. Ability to take risks because of that talent. Of all Tarot personalities, most in touch with feminine side. Self-awareness is very advanced. Sensual and sociable, very miscible (ie. mixed) personality. Responsible and generous in equal measure. Social impact of all actions is very important to him. Does not fret about limitations or lack of fame. Keeps a level head in moments of high emotional excitement.

Present Life: 7 of Cups
Underlying energy: The Hermit

https://imgur.com/a/randomactsofkindness-present-life-fZLcdpw

Commentary:

7 of Cups is about choosing from many options.
The underlying energy of the Hermit is one of meditativeness and quiet solitude.

Sri Arya writes,

Exceedingly wise mentor and advisor, but do not expect practical help. Their work is never complete. Capable of concentrated, cumulative and dedicated effort. Superhuman discipline, aspirations and striving. The strong are never so strong as when they are alone. The period of retreat and contemplation needed to progress in spiritual and psychological growth. Usually ahead of their times and therefore incomprehensible when they seek to communicate their ideas and notions. Tend to favor rational approaches in all matters. Possessing secret knowledge. Dabbling in the occult and arcane byways of the spirit. Great knowledge, even wisdom, of traditional systems. Transmitter of culture and tradition. The light of the Hermit is the light of the invisible higher paths.

Commentary:

Some quiet time is well indicated here. Spending time with/in Mother Nature is particularly recommended and helpful to well-being.

Future Possibility: The Wheel of Fortune
Underlying energy: Temperance

https://imgur.com/a/randomactsofkindness-future-possiblity-mO17h8P

Commentary:

The Wheel of Fortune turned over upright. Good fortune is portended for the next life.
The energy underlying this is all five elements being brought into balance due to spiritual practice. Because of this your future life's capacity to create the kind of life desired is greatly expanded.

*********************************************************
Major Arcana Combos:

The Star
The Hermit
The Wheel of Fortune
Temperance

The Hermit + The Star :

The need to be alone. A need for privacy. Too many distractions come from being with people. Time to be alone with one's thoughts.

The Hermit + The Wheel of Fortune :

Coordination of many things by one person. The ability to think on several levels. A person who's unconscious mind works better than his or her conscious mind.

***************************************

Transparent Oracle

First Card: Venus_Dir: Above card 48 - p. 124

https://imgur.com/a/venus-dir-above-card-48-1MwtoYB

Quote from the book on Venus:

Venus is one of the brightest and most beautiful objects in the night sky, so it is fitting that she also rules over not only physical beauty, but appreciation of beauty in all things. This stretches to include the creation of beautiful objects through art and a strongly refined aesthetic sense. Also, as a logical extension of her all-encompassing embrace of the qualities of love, she rules over procreation, motherhood, and protection of children. We may also see her influence in the love and companionship of good friends, even when the love is purely platonic.

Second Card: Guide_Bear_Dir: North card 36 - p. 98

https://imgur.com/a/guide-bear-dir-north-card-36-PudrhSF

With cards from the Above, the stellar aspect of Bear is emphasized.

Quote from the book on the stellar aspects of Guide: Bear.

Bear also has links with the stellar realm, through the constellations Ursa Major and Ursa Minor, meaning “Great Bear” and “Little Bear”, respectively. These are extremely important constellations, particularly in Hindu tradition, where Ursa Major is considered the source of all universal energy. Bear also has links with the Underworld, being considered a representative of the ancestors in many Native American traditions, thus linking through all three worlds. When we consider this, we can see what an important and valuable ally and guide Bear can be.

...and...

If Bear is combined with cards of its own direction, then it may mean a time of retreat from the world, akin to hibernation.

Third Card: Landscape_Forest_Dir: North card 35 - p. 97

https://imgur.com/a/landscape-forest-dir-north-card-35-TbJLyb6

If Forest appears with cards of its own direction, progress may seem slow and responsibility heavy.
"When cards from Above appear, then the realm of trees and nature offer a gateway to spirituality.


Layered:

https://imgur.com/a/all-3-cards-layered-oXGP651

Commentary:

Both the tarot and the oracle are indicating that querant well-being would be enhanced with more relaxation, solitude and contact with Mother Nature. Also, endeavors into something creative is well-indicated. Something like painting, drawing, playing a music instrument, writing a novel, creating a new recipe, etc. Anything that has to do with creativity. Now is the time to just go for it!
