Greetings 143jastin,

Without knowing much about your personal experiences, I think I might be able to shed a little light onto your current relationship.

For the time being, my cards suggest to me that you're present circumstances within your relationship are positive. I can see from your past experience with this relationship that you and your significant other came together--each of you bringing an overwhelming abundance of positive soul energy.

Presently, your relationship still appears to carry that same positive energy. The Four of Wands indicates a strong, committed relationship and great happiness in general. This four is often associated with engagements that can lead to marriage.

The Five of Wands, however, suggests that in the future, you might be competing with one or several others who covet the same person who interests you. Sometimes it can suggest an affair but it can also represent other factors (such as work, hobbies, etc) that could be competing for the time you would rather spend with each other.

No worries, however, because the Ten of Pentacles represents a possible outcome. This ten suggests financial prosperity and firm foundations for home and family life. When dealing with relationships, this card points to a rich emotional bond between you and your significant other. Everything clicks between you, almost as if you're one soul, one mind.

All in all, I believe you'll be okay. Just remember to make time for each other, share your goals with one another through honest communication and if you both should agree on where you would like this relationship to go, trust that you have the power to make your dreams come true.

Peace,

Merlin

Your interpretations of the cards pretty much resemble the standard "text book" interpretations. However, without knowing the meanings of each cards position in the spread, it's difficult to establish a more accurate assessment. of your situation. Does "The Hanged Man" represent your past, a specific period of time, or an aspect of your personality? The more specific you are when assigning definitions to each card within the spread, you'll know how each individual card relates to your personal experience.

Peace,

Merlin

Greetings IntrovertedExtrovert,

My cards are telling me that you're stuck in a rut and it's most likely that you'll end up walking away in disappointment. The man with whom you feel connected to is businesslike and exhuberant about everything he does. He seems to have an inexhaustible reserve of energy, has a flair for drama, and is passionate about things he believes in.

Your attraction to this man stemmed from a sudden affair that was marked by passionate and intense emotions. However, this man is hard to pigeonhole. As a result, you now find yourself in unknown terrain. My cards tell me that he is retreating into himself, however, because a relationship is not currently a priority in his life.

This relationship will leave you feeling bereft, adrift, and consumed by your loss. You may find yourself wanting him to return, but it's not going to happen. But the cards are advising you that you shouldn't linger over your losses for too long of a time.

Once you've bounced back and have freed your mind of any clutter or mental barriers about relationships, you'll find new opportunities coming your way.

Peace,

Merlin

Thank you for your feedback, RiBean. May you and your family enjoy a warm and peaceful holiday season.

Peace,

My cards are all pointing to choices that might lead you towards a new chapter in your life. Think transition, something new being born in your life, fresh starts, and new challenges. They could affect your work and your love life.

What is required, however, is a strong mind to see through the myriad af choices that could be laid at your feet. At this time, you're too engrossed with expectations, that you might have difficulties distinguishing fantasy from reality. It's important that you face any decisions or judgements that you make with a clear head.

You might feel overwhelmed by all of this activity so don't pressure yourself into making hasty decisions about anything. Remember that there's nothing wrong in saying "let me sleep on it."

Hope this helps.

Peace,

Merlin

Greetings Pilot007,

I've read your question but I've brought my response to this thread in order to preserve the original thread started by another member of the forums.

The cards tell me that the man in question is part Don Quixote, a troubador who brings social activities, romance, excitement, and travel into your life. His charm is his greates asset and his most powerful weapon. With it, he wins over his adversaries, converts people to his way of thinking, and moves through life with the grace of a fish.

His focus is on emotion and on the creativity that flows from it. He is usually warmhearted and communicative, but sometimes he's so caught up in his own head he seems evasive, too self-contained. If you annoy him, he isn't the type who will tell you off; he'll simply tune you out.

But the cards point to a new start and a new appreciation of life, new fortune, new opportunities, joy, and spiritual awakening. A happy situation is already in the beginning stages. Imagination and fantasy will combine to produce numerous opportunities.

I suspect that this reunion will, no doubt, present you with some choices.

But it's possible that this myriad of options will leave you feeling muddled and confused. You might experience trouble distinguishing the good from the bad. You will need to make a choice, Pilot, and you should devote much care and consideration to making it.

What you desire the most may be right under your nose, just waiting to be recognized. But until you choose your path and begin working with it, all your dreams and ideas will only remain just castles in the air. Beneath your confusion and indecision lies an abundance of innovative energy waiting to be relased. So long as you remain mindful of the fact that we are all creators of our own experiences, you'll find the power to take the step towards the right direction.

Peace,

Merlin

Greetings RiBean,

First off, let me say that I can certainly feel your anger and resentment over this broken relationship. My cards tell me that you were definitely being taken advantage of and it was best to end it sooner than later. Do I see that you'll get the closure that you seek? Yes--but not in the guise that you're hoping for.

If you're waiting for him to come forward, I wouldn't count it on it. But the truth of the matter is, RiBean, it probably wouldn't have the affect that you would have hoped for. You made the right decision to move on and the cards are telling you not to look back.

The closure that you seek will come in the form of spiritual and mental cleansing. Trust that you've made the right decision, RiBean. Have confidence that you truly deserve the fulfilling relationship that you desire. If there's one thing that could be said about Scorpios, it's that they're team players! Whoever wins over your heart in the future will be privy to a remarkable gift! You have a lot to offer a lonely soul. Keep your chin up and you'll quickly begin to feel that anger and resentment slip away from your heart.

Someone new is on his way, RiBean! My cards tell me that he is adventurous, spiritual, fun-loving, and charismatic! This new relationship will sail into your life and it's just the kind of partnership you've been hoping for--fun, exciting, and fulfilling. You and your significant other will share common interests in books, theater, and spiritual topics.

In closing, no one appreciates being deceived in their personal relationships. It happens to all of us at some point or another. The good thing is that it happened sooner than later. But use this broken relationship as a learning experience. Sometimes you have to kiss a few frogs before you find your Prince but you're also learning how to whether the storm. It's been said, "what doesn't kill you only makes you stronger." This is no exception...

Peace,

Merlin

Greetings Mom2jess,

Let's see if we can shed a little light on your present sitiuation...

The cards are telling me that your marriage appears to be stuck in neutral, but they also tell me that it might only be temporary. The card of The Hanged Man is advising you to look at this relationship from a different angle. I sense the magic has disappeared from your relationship but it's important to try looking at this relationship from your husband's point of view. What's needed at this point in time is an honest and heartfelt communication with him. If your heart and your head are at odds with one another, you can at least satisfy your head with a little information. Once you've both shared some dialogue with one another, you'll be in a much stronger position to think more clearly and analyze what has been said.

The cards tell me that your husband is something of a romantic. His emotions might seesaw between evasiveness and bluntness, but don't take it personally. He generally feels more comfortable listening to others than talking about himself so if you do engage him in honest communication, make sure you create an environment where he feels safe in sharing his emotions.

I don't feel this relationships needs to end in disaster. I truly believe that if you and your husband are capable of reaching a new level of understanding, you'll find creative ways to bring the magic back into your lives.

Peace,

Merlin

I couldn't have said it better, myself, Lawdawg!
