I wanna have a go. I don't normally do reversed cards, so this is a tad odd :p

Strength Rx (cause), 2 of Pentacles Rx (effect):
Recalibrating my female & masculine energy (cause), has me off-kilter, slows me down while I try to integrate a new balance (effect).


Pentacles 6 (Cause) - Cups 4 (Effect):
Having to accept alms -thus being dependent on others- (cause) makes me feel grumpy and oblivious to the beauty of what's right in front of me

Pandora. 12-09-2015 09:15 AM

6 of Pentacles (cause), 4 of Cups (effect):
When my father died, my siblings got a larger inheritance than I did (cause), which made me feel very depressed and wondering why I didn't deserve the same as them (effect).

9 of Swords (cause), 6 of Wands (effect):
I spent most of the night trying to figure out a way to solve a work problem which came up during the day (cause) but managed to come up with an answer and averted disaster (effect).

9 of Swords (cause) + 6 of Wands (effect): Pulling all-nighters (in spirit if not in action) and doing whatever it takes to get across dat line!!! Whoo go Pandora

Here's me pulling two cards to try and explain why I've been consistently waking up ~3-4am the past few mornings:

Star rev + Str rev: Aww, for realsies? C'MON INNER TEALILY, I BELIEVE IN YOU! YOU CAN DO THIS!

This is a bit of a sad combo - it usually speaks of people feeling hopeless and not having anything to look forward to/any guidance, which leads to a massive dose of low self-confidence and 'give up before it's begun' type mentality.

The Star rx (cause), Strength rx (effect):
Having cold showers in the middle of winter makes me seriously bad tempered. (I have no idea why that popped in my head).

7 of Pentacles rx (cause), 5 of Wands rx (effect):
A bad back ache after working in the garden (cause), put an end to any physical activity for the rest of the day (effect).

(Those were a bit left field :icon_confused: )

7 of Pentacles rx (cause), 5 of Wands rx (effect): Someone's walked away from a situation that was unsustainable/lacked adequate potential - in doing so they might feel that they're a cop-out, but in reality I think it's more that they've walked away from an endlessly high level of stress/conflict.

I'm pulling two cards to try and understand why a group project I'm currently involved in is having difficulties.

The Fool (cause) + Queen of Cups (effect):
Ah, two cards up my alley! I don't think things are that bad at all - they're just outside our known comfort zone. We're having to try something new, which means we're going to need to be creative. I can be creative :D BRING IT!

Pandora. 15-09-2015 07:20 AM

The Fool (cause) + Queen of Cups (effect):
Jumping off the cliff (metaphorically, of course) and having faith in my abilities (cause), brings out my intuition and makes me a better reader (effect).

(I must be living in dream world!)

Well, this is strange. I did shuffle them ...

King of Cups reversed (cause) + the Fool (effect):
Having too much to drink (cause), can lead to nasty accidents (effect)

55Degrees 15-09-2015 04:07 PM

King of Cups reversed (cause) + the Fool (effect):
After suffering a depressive episode (cause), my life took a very different course (effect).

Knight of Coins (cause), 8 of Swords (effect)
Chasing his career ambitions (cause) left him isolated from personal relationships (effect).

Knight of Coins (cause), 8 of Swords (effect): Ouch! This guy worked himself so hard, that he literally built a wall around himself and now he's kind of locked in his work. It's going to take a bit of clever adjustment to get him out.

6 of Swords rev + 8 of wands (effect): A HA! If you "stop", things will actually move more quickly. Or "Rest now because all kinds of shizz is about to go down". I'll take that as a message that I should rest rather than work hard today.

Yes, I've decided to knock off for a few hours and have a bit of a rest - I've been flat out working/studying without having time to scratch myself.

6 of Swords rx (cause), 8 of Wands (effect):
A serious boat accident (cause), required the injured to be transported by helicopter asap to the nearest hospital (effect).

5 of Cups (cause), 7 of Wands reversed:
The death of her mother devastated her (cause) and caught her completely off guard (effect).

Holy s***, I'm so glad I stayed at home today instead of going out for groceries. Shizz did indeed go down majorly and there was a frantic hour spent on the internet - we have a new major deadline in less than 24 hours.


5 of Cups (cause), 7 of Wands reversed (effect): Ouch - grief leads to turning inwards and away from external conflicts. I don't think it's unhealthy though - maybe it's a wise time to focus on healing rather than continuing to fight stuff out. Doing honour to the healing process :)

Knight of Cups (cause) + 6 of swords rev (effect): Hmm! Something nice comes along (real or imaginary) and stops one in their tracks.
