in my experience, since tarot cards only channelise your own psychic energy andtap into your unconscious, somehow whenever i have tried to do a reading about another's feelings, when i am a key participant in the situation, i have always drawn up cards that reflect what i secretly want the outcome to be.

it has happened multiple times, because i have not been able to dissociate myself from wishing for a particular outcome, and wanting to know the real outcome tendency at the same time. Somehow, trying to do it as a reading for a client never works for me!

Oh, and also, does anyone have any layouts that are good for this purpose? Thanks again.

Say, for example, someone you love has dropped out of your life and gone to someone else, and you want to know how they feel about you and whether or not the relationship they've entered into is going to work, and whether or not they'll be back. I'm always confused about how to do a reading from that point of view. Do you interpret the cards as the reality of their relationship or the other's feelings in terms of how you would/will feel about it? Do you interpret it as if you're reading for a client, and can you do that when there isn't actually another person putting energy into it asking you this? How do you phrase questions?

Thanks.

In all honesty, I think what should determine if you married the right guy or not should be compatibility in things much more important and relevant than Astrology. Do you respect one another? Is there love between the two of you? Are you on the same page when it comes to your future? How do the two of you deal with finances? Are you sexually compatible? Do you hold similar religious or spiritual beliefs? Etc. Astrological compatibility should be the last thing on your list for whether or not your husband and yourself are truly compatible.

What you need to do is get your everyday real life issues sized up and in order, and THEN see what your astrological profiles have to say on those matters. If they don't match up to what is actually going on then they would obviously hold no relevance to your situation. I think it would be extremely ridiculous for you to obtain a divorce based ONLY on your and your husband's birth charts. I think that in reality, you should have thought longer and harder about what kind of commitment you were making to this man and how compatible the two of you were before you decided to get married. But, all you can do now is figure out where the two of you are in the relationship now and go from there. And for goodness sake, if there are real problems in your marriage (not just perceived astrological ones) then you should try discussing and working on them first before deciding to throw away your entire marriage... Just my two cents...

It occurs to me that maybe this is the kind of thing nobody wants to touch because nobody wants to be the one who persuaded me to divorce my husband (just a guess).

Don't worry, if that happens, you're the last person who is responsible for it. So if anyone finds synastry interesting, please tell me what you think.

Seriously, right guy or not and why? And do you personally ascribe to the idea that cross-compatibility is good enough or does a couple, in your view, need to have sun matching sun, moon matching moon, rising matching rising (by matching, of course I mean fire with self or air, air with self or fire, water with self or earth, earth with self or water), mercury matching, etc.?

Thanks.
