GEMINIS’ 2014

                    GEMINIS’ 2014

EIGHT OF CUPS

I don’t think I need to explain much in the case of this card, Geminians. The imagery says it all-or at least a large part of it.

As you can see very well, the figurine on this card is leaving behind the well-prepared and elaborate structure that it, presumably, had prepared itself. He/she had definitely put in a lot of effort and energy, along with even more of patience and time, to take this structure to the height that it has attained.

Don’t you think it would be attached to it? Of course it must have been.

But as we can see very well, it has now left it behind and is now aiming for a new thing (did you see those mountain peaks??); and he/she knows that carrying this set-up (or its components too) is not a practically viable option. So he/she is leaving them behind, and has totally given up on them-since we don’t find him/her looking back towards it.

And this is a message for you.

This card asks you to show the similar strength and resilience as the hero/heroine of this story. This year, you need to outgrow some emotions.

You need to drop the emotional baggage that is thwarting your progress. The reason I emphasize on this baggage being emotional is that the cups are the suite of emotions in the Tarot.

There must be some relationships or other emotional entanglements that might have taken a lot from you to be built. But as of now, they do not hold any meaning to or serve any purpose in your today’s scenario. So, no matter how painful or heartless it may seem-not only to others but to you yourself even-get out of the relations and other things that are tying you down to lower levels when, without them, you could be rising higher. At the end of the day (or year, rather), when you would look back, you would definitely feel that not walking out was better than not doing so. 

FIVE OF SWORDS

This is the card of ‘mental acceptance to change’. The change that it wants to talk about may (or may not) refer to the ending of the old and persevered, but yet obsolete, emotional situation.

Whatever the change might be, it would most likely be occurring through an exchange of words, where each person would be speaking out their minds-and not necessarily agreeing with each other. So you wouldn't be wrong in concluding that, in the simplest forms, this card depicts disputes and arguments.

It may also be hinting towards a parting of ways as the final outcome of the dispute (see the way the figures in the backdrop have their backs turned towards the central one, in a pose of walking away).

But don’t despair so fast. Since this card is not reversed, so the effect of this parting wouldn't be a negative one on your lives. And, on a definitive upside, if you love winning arguments, no matter what (well, most Gemini natives do), then you can be assured that you would emerge out to be the winner out of this argument.

A downside could be that you would offend people so much while en route to this victory that when the moment would come for you to lift your trophy (the swords in your hand), you may find yourself a bit too much deserted.

Then it lies on your shoulders to decide whether to, or not to, go for this victory because every body’s lives are different; and even Tarot Cards cannot give any cut-and-dried formula that would apply in each of the cases.

EIGHT OF SWORDS

Like the two predecessors of it, this card also is one of those where a Tarot Card Reader isn't needed much for interpretations.

We can see a lady-hands bound and eyes obstructed.

This may be describing a situation where you don’t know what the situation exactly is, and how can you do anything about it. Plus you’re powerless too, when it comes to interfering effectively (your hands are tied, remember??)

Then the question is-“what can we do in such a situation??”

The answer lies, again, in the card itself. Look carefully at the figure’s feet and legs. Neither are they bound nor are any swords in front and back of her. They’re there just on her sides, obstructing movement-and/or depicting elements of danger-in those directions; and thus away from the situation. But she’s not aware of it. So she rather tries to either move sideways-look at her posture- or she tries to free her hands.

Analogically, in situations where your knowledge is inadequate and/or your powers of action are limited, plus there’s an element of danger too; it would be a better ploy to move away from the situation-at least for a while, if not permanently.

GEMINIS’ SEPTEMBER 2013

GEMINIS’ SEPTEMBER 2013

TWO OF WANDS (REVERSED)

It appears to me that, in spite of badly wanting to, you are currently unable to act. Whenever you decide to act, the decision of yours would get impeded by you own fears-the fear, actually. The fear of the new, of the unknown, of the nameless and the foreign is what might keep your decisions forever at bay.

                                    

You need to realize something-that you have outgrown your current situations. The old habits, old things or the old people might be, may be even unintentionally, hampering your growth. And you would need new people and new situations and challenges to break the stalemate and carry forward the plans that you so meticulously formulate.

You would also feel better equipped to handle the things if, instead of  brooding over the risks involved and what would you stand to lose, you focus and emphasize more over the rewards and possibilities that you might get to harness.

Don’t be in a futile pursuit of worthless goals; just because your pride and lack of humility don’t allow you to abandon them-and thus admit the error in your judgment and fault in your thinking lines and ideas.

Rather than trying too much or too many things at once, try to focus your energies and efforts in any one particular direction.

But for that, you need to find out that one particular goal-which has the enough inspirations for you to motivate you. But remember, the goal should be worthy and rewarding enough for you to spend your resources in its pursuit.

And by the time you achieve it, it would have accomplished its task-of helping you move on.

NINE OF SWORDS

Basically Nine of Swords is a card of anxiety and despair. It shows that this month shall see you grappling against the circumstances, engulfed in apprehension and desolation.

But, on the other hand, this card also heralds of a time where your hardships, once they have had their peak, may start to fade away-only if you are sensible enough to notice that and not worry yourselves in excess.

This card also shows that many of your problems, or the high degrees of them, exist only on the level of your mental planes rather than hard actuality.

If you notice the figure in the picture, though she has nine swords over her, all of them are there in such a manner that their points form a nearly smooth arc, implying that they’re fastened there and shall not fall over the maiden, however perplexed she appears with their presence.

In the same fashion, many of your problems might either be exaggerated figments of your own imagination or, at least, might not be in as bad a shape as you perceive them to be.

May be some of them might even be there just to annoy you and rob you of your night’s sleep rather than to do some actual harm; just like I may stand in front of you with an empty gun(though I wouldn’t let you know that) and wave it in your face just to terrorize you.

If your tensions and worries are there regarding a relationship, stop looking for superficial solutions to the problem.

You are flustered on a deep, maybe unconscious or subconscious, level. And so wading into the shore pools will not get you anywhere. Either come out of the waters completely, let go of all the worries and let destiny run its own course or go into the deepest abysses of your mind, heart and soul to get a grip on the problem.

GEMINIS’ JUNE 2013

GEMINIS’ JUNE 2013

EIGHT OF WANDS

This is the perfect card for you, Geminis. June is your own month, and Eight of Wands delivers you exactly what your twin-personality souls crave-lots of ideas, swiftness, fast action, need for speed (not the game), versatility, multi-tasking- and the list can go on.

This month, lots of action and activity await you. You’ll need to be on the top-gear throughout this June (to your heart’s content, I know).Some special, exciting or rewarding or hectic) travel might also cross your path.                                                         

                                                                                  

This is a time for swift rise-in intellectuality (as Wands are primarily a suite of ideas) and career.

An uncomplicated romantic relationship may also be a benefit that you might reap. Both you and your partner shall be having some shared goals.

Things are so up in the air, in all fields and not just romantic arena that you need to sort out your priorities and put together a working plan of action-and you’ll have to do all of these really fast.

Make clear your intentions right now-because any confusion, in your mind or in others’ mind about you, will only slow you down and prevent you from enjoying the fast, whirlwind time that you have been waiting for since so long.

And when you have clarified your standings, to yourself and others as well, and made out your plans; just rush forward with them.

Enjoy the speed of life blowing you off your feet; for that’s what you were cut out for; and act instantaneously. Don’t hesitate in following your impulses-that’s what destiny wishes of you this month- and nothing will go wrong.

Be prepared for news and fresh information flooding in. Don’t dawdle on the method of delivery, for that may confuse you and lead you to not realizing the importance of the package it delivered.

Keep your eyes and mind open-the answers you seek may approach you from anywhere, in any way.

There might be so many ideas floating around that even you­, a Gemini-who’s hard-wired for multi-tasking and tossing multiple ideas in your brain-, might feel overwhelmed by choices.

But consider them your resources and you’ll be surprised by the way those confusions suddenly become your friends and assistants.

QUEEN OF WAND (REVERSED)

Beware of abatement in your self-confidence and your inner strength, Geminis. Situations may put you through a series of tests that may lessen your courage, though temporarily.

Acting out of fear may hamper your decision-making; so when acting out of fear, the decisions you take may not be your best ones.

Don’t push yourselves too hard-you need to reserve your energies for the challenges before you this month.

Be sure to not be so sure of yourself that you forget your weaker side-which you definitely have.

GEMINIS’ 2013

             GEMINIS’ 2013

Looks like you are going to have an interesting year, dear Geminis. The last year was definitely yours and this year, adding up to 6(=2+0+1+3), is not against you by its own nature!!!!! All you need to do is just to watch out for certain things described as under:

The first card is:-

THE DEATH (REVERSED)

Opposite to the popular misconception (and fear), this card doesn't always signify a physical death. However, it does mean endings, and beginnings as well. It tells that something major has come to an end. And in the reversed form, it says that you might be apprehensive of or might try to avoid/stop the change (Frankly Geminis, since when did you start doing that?????????? I thought you loved the change!!!!!).

The advice of the card is simple to sound and yet hard to follow-Don’t avoid the currents of change. Rather, let yourself flow with it, for the change is inevitable and no further growth is possible without it. The scythe of the figurine in the Death card is breaking the ground for something new.

And the next card is

THE CHARIOT (REVERSED)

At the foremost, The Chariot is a card of travel and in the reversed form, it warns you against them.  It tells of the travel plans that don’t go well.

Also, it tells us about someone who either bullies you or gets bullied by you. It also warns of being the victim (or the victor) of arrogance and selfishness.

Apart from travel (which you Geminis absolutely love), the presence of Chariot also warns you to be wary while making other plans as well. Unless they are checked and rechecked and again rechecked for loopholes, all of your major plans better be postponed because they all, unless as I said they are and rechecked and again rechecked for loopholes, are susceptible to delays and frustrations as well.

And now the final card:

ACE OF CUPS (REVERSED)

SORRY to break that on you guys, but things doesn't look too good on the love-front as well. The Ace of Cups reversed is a card of lost love and despair. So an obvious warning would be to keep n check the reins of your heart this year. I don’t want to say that all the Geminis should become stone-cold and aloof for the whole year, in the matters of the heart. But just be extra careful and avoid taking important decisions like marriage, divorce, a long-term commitment or a break-up from a long relationship. When these things have waited so long, let them wait for one more year, if it doesn't hurt too much to procrastinate.

As for the despair thing, it may come to you out of the romantic arena as well. But it shall still be of a romantic kind. And the main reason for that will be your over-dependency on others, in the emotional way. Don’t try to look for emotional fulfillment from others. This year, the emotional and spiritual fulfillment has to be from inside.

You may take help from the inclusive and supportive friends and family but finally nobody can become happy in your stead, and you need to realize that. And if you don’t want to take help from any friends or family, start some hobby or activity that emotionally compliments and completes you.
