Intuitive Card Reading Exercise

I love all the different things we are pulling from this. Would it be a shock to find out the last image is actually the 4 of Pentacles?

[tealily]

ahaha yes it would be, if only because I'm used to 4 of Pent being a static card. This changes the way I view it in future

Ready for another?

The last card (Fairy Lights) made me laugh! It's such a perfect picture of my life at present.
Pulling superfluous clutter behind me creates quite the load, haha!
What I enjoy about this card are the fairies, busy little creatures demanding light and positive response.

I see this card and am reminded of a small flock of schoolgirls. I see the one in the forefront satisfied with her creation, whilst the other two - Harry Potter style - are still trying to figure out how to pull it off correctly ("It's not wingardium leviooosa, it's wingardium levioSAH!"). I see lots of learning and discovery, and even a bit of 'creation'.

Though there's lots of blue and black (kind of scary) the bright yellow gently raining down from the sky makes me think this isn't an altogether negative card :)

@tealily
Looooove the HP reference, it is a bit reminiscent of Hermione out in front with Harry in the middle and Ron at the back thinking 'Duh! How did she do that?'

To me it looks like 3 stages of creation, the further we get the more developed and real it becomes.

The figure at the back is faceless and the globe is levitating but within reach, it is also dark and empty, the middle figure has basic facial features and looks to be clasping their globe tightly, the third has a fully developed face and the globe now glows with energy.

Any surprise its the 3 of Wands?

I'm having to look the cards up as I trimmed mine down into an oracle deck. Beginning to wish I hadn't now :(

OH I know what deck you're talking about now! You've used it once for me before in the TPT, but only once - that's why I don't recognise it. WOW! It's beautiful. There's also a... fragility about it which is really special.

And eh, you probably trimmed it down so you could use it/so it was more functional to you. You're probably not going to whip it out and do exercises like this with it as often, right? So it was probably a good move since you have to pick one or the other :)

Haha yeah, I always read it in an oracle style I did away with most of the courts and a few others that just didn't read well or were too much the same as another card. There are about 60 cards left but works well as an intuitive oracle deck.

(I'm getting the evil eye from my mother for 'working' whilst she's here, I'm not going to make her wise that it's not work haha)

you are... er... engaging in dialogue with your professional colleagues.... +/- international counterparts, whichever jargon strikes your fancy!
