Tarot: CC "I’m screwed, tell me something new."

Things have been… tumultuous… in my life lately. This morning’s audience with Jupiter being more a mere symptom than a continued cause. (His advice, on the other hand… oh boy.) I had a quiet moment during lunch and wanted to spread out tarot cards, but I had no space to do so.

It’s good I have the Beautiful Tarot app on my timewaster toy iTouch [1]. I threw down a Celtic Cross, thinking I’ll save the image and dwell over it as the day progresses. Give my subconscious something to hook onto, then drag it back to the surface this evening (or in a lucid dream tonight).

I don’t use significators in my CC spreads, thinking them to be an odd removal of what would likely be an important card. I also do not read reversals.

The app’s Celtic Cross spread calls for a significator, so I indulged. Thinking the significator card, instead of representing me as a person, better suited to represent the overwhelming (or underlying) theme, much like a Shadow card at the bottom of the deck. The card positions listed below are Beautiful Tarot’s version of a Celtic Cross [2].

Sig: The Tower
#1 This Covers: 2 of Cups
#2 This Crosses: Death
#3 What Lies Above: 5 of Pents
#4 What Lies Below: Ace of Pents
#5 What Lays Behind: The Moon
#6 What Lays Ahead: Page of Wands
#7 Querent: 4 of Pents
#8 The House: Ace of Cups
#9 Hopes & Fears: 3 of Cups
#10 What Will Come: 4 of Cups

That’s not quite how I read the CC. But the major plot points are the same. And accurate. (I’m not stingy! To be stingy, I have to have money first!)

When trying to come up with a caption for the image, all I could think of was “Yes, you are living in interesting times.” Any others?

I’ll be chewing over this for a while, then will update this post with my take on it. Have at it.

[1] Yes, I know what the official name is, but it’s my hardware and I’ll jailbreak it like I’ll damn well please and I’ll call it what I damn well please.

[2] Get 50 readers to describe the Celtic Cross and you’ll get 150 variations.
