LIBRAS’ JULY 2013

QUEEN OF PENTACLES (REVERSED)

My dear Librans, though you undoubtedly are my favorite Zodiac natives (my heartiest apologies to fellow Virginians), but this wouldn’t stop me from being reprimanding where I find you going wrong-and tipping your scales away from the harmony that you need.

The Queen of Pentacles, in reversed form, shows that you would go very much suspicious, materialistic and insecure.

You would go about worrying yourself sick about the financial matters and being overly protective about the people about you-to such an extent that you have become downright unpleasant and suffocating; stifling their growth and progress.

You shall be no longer yourself-the real, natural you that you are. You would become too involved and tangled up in materialistic issues-like career, finances etc. - to take care of your emotions, and your spiritual self.

And that might seriously tarnish your reputation. People may take you to be overly career-oriented and overambitious, with a come-what-may determination for moving ahead with finances.

And that’s highly unfortunate because in reality, this month would turn you, inwardly at least, very much child-like. Your emotions would be immature and irresponsible-but not the least cold, calculating and aloof persona that you would be projecting.

VIRGOS’ JULY 2013

VIRGOS’ JULY 2013

ACE OF WANDS

Once again, if the natives of other sun positions would excuse me, I would be reverting from “you” to “we” and from “your” to “our”; the reason being a very simple one-to show my special solidarity and empathy to the Virginians, for I happen to be one of them.

The Ace of Wands, at least on the preliminary level, is basically a very simple and basic card. Aces mean new and Wands indicate ideas.

So the primary meaning of this card, Ace of Wands, is simply -“There’s a new idea waiting for you out there; waiting for you to start working on it.”

Furthermore, since it came out in upright position, so we need not fear much. The result is assured to turn out to be good, and the hassling complications aroused by the reversed card-especially a basic one like this- have spared us.

Also, the Ace of Wands also tells us that we would do well do be creative and original about this idea. I know that it’s a bit difficult, but aren’t we, the Virgos, the last people one would ever expect to run away from hardships???

Besides, it also suites our perfectionist mind to be original, isn't it?

                      

Ace of Wands is also a card of travel. So it might be that this idea of ours may take us for a travel as well.

In your career, you might get to start something new as well. Maybe you might move to a new job. Or you may step to a new level or position (presumably a higher one than previous, as the card stands not reversed but upright) in the same organization or institution that you are working with right now.

You may even get a new project to work on, covering one or more-maybe even all- the aspects of this card.

You might get to travel for it, you may step onto a new level (get promoted or get transferred, to a new department or a new place) and you would then definitely need some new ideas for the job.

LEOS’ JULY 2013

LEOS’ JULY 2013

THE WHEEL OF FORTUNE (REVERSED)

Your fortunes are in a back gear, Your High and Mighty Majesties- retreating. The luck is about to take back what it had endowed upon you some time ago.

Coming up are the times of misfortunes and unpleasant surprises. But most of all, you will start to feel-at least a little, even if you are super-cynical-your life and its problems ‘fated’-predestined, inevitable, inescapable.

You will start to feel yourself losing control of your life, feelings and emotions. And here it lays the catch.

Though it’s beyond doubt that it is indeed the fate which is pitting problems against you, but it’s YOU-and only YOU-who can get over them-if you want to end things fast.

But there are upsides to this card too, so you need not fret too much-Too much of worry diminishes regal beings, like you undoubtedly are, to the generalized, mundane level of ordinary existence, you know.

What are they??

                           

Firstly, this is a very temporary card; and chances are that your problems may fizz out themselves by the end of the month-though you do need to work on them if you want them to end sooner.

Good or bad; the times heralded by this card are very short-tenured. Neither does the good luck shown by it lasts much, nor the bad.

Secondly, as you already do know (and so is probably almost useless to remind you) that bad times end only when they have, at least, scraped their lowest point. And this card says that those times aren’t too far away. Soon the wheel shall rise to a high point (or at least neutral one) and all shall be well once again.

CANCERS’ JULY 2013

CANCERS’ JULY 2013

THE DEATH

I know what are you thinking, my dear crabs. I can clearly see many of you clawing whatever you can find, in fear, when you see the title of the card.

But you have got no reason to fret, my dear crabs. No matter what the name of this card suggest, this one doesn't signify death-at least not here.

But, The Death is definitely a card for endings-and new beginnings as well. It signifies the termination of the old-old and inconsequential; things, people, and habits that serve no purpose whatsoever in your life, and need be replaced by the new.

                      

                                    

The changes that follow this card-only in the sense that it tells beforehand of their coming and not actually causes them to occur; as Tarot is only a fore teller and not the cause of events-are usually rather shocking and  unexpected events. But after you have got over their shock, you will find yourself at the foot of a brand new start. Your life shall have acquired a whole new meaning.

“It is the time for an all-new transformation phase” is the message of this card.

And you would do best to embrace and welcome, whole heartedly, the changes that come your way.

GEMINIS' JULY 2013

GEMINIS' JULY 2013

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.

TAURUS' JULY 2013

TAURUS' JULY 2013

THE HIEROPHANT

The Hierophant is a card symbolizing the moral law. It tells you, my dear bulls, that this month, be more moralistic than ‘provident’ or ‘realistic’.

This does not mean that you need to throw the practical caution or approach down your side window. Rather, this card says that when in a dilemma of choice between what’s moral and what’s legal, what’s right and what’s beneficial (which opportunists often christen ‘practical’ but what’s actually disguised-selfishness), always go for the moral one this month rather than the other one.

For example: you see a handsome amount entered in your bank account even when no such amount is due into it. Then, following the simple logic, it is clear that it happened by accident. Then the moral approach would be to try to find the person who committed this mistake and return the amount; while legally you’re at liberty to keep it because the person did it out of what’s legally ‘free will’.

Then here, The Hierophant asks you to take the moral option. I know the latter one is easier and much more lucrative too, but it shall cause you a nearly-unredeemable moral lapse.

This card also advises you to take the guidance and advice from a wise, experienced and efficient advisor if some issue is too big or complicated for you to handle all by yourself.

There’s one more choice which The Hierophant rules-the one between age-old wisdom and newfound brilliance, between the traditional, and conventional; and the latest.

This card favors all the former ones, and asks you to follow the suite.

ARIES' JULY 2013

ARIES' JULY 2013

TEN OF SWORDS (REVERSED)

This card looks anything but cheerful, my dear rams, and so does your upcoming month.

If you are already undergoing some sort of suffering, I'm so sorry to have to break this to you but, be prepared for some more. If not, be ready for a not-so-moderate dose of it.

Ruin and desolation shall be dogging your footsteps the whole month, so watch out for them and be on every tenterhook that you can; because this month you can't be too cautious.

But don't throw up your hands in despair and wail out your hearts, Martians. At least not yet!!!!

There's a way to avoid, or at least mitigate or minimize, your ordeals and sufferings, if only you keep a bit of patience. I know it's hard for you Mars-dwellers; but I assure you it won't be the least hard than what Ten of Swords wants to offer you.

First of all, I want you to carefully observe the figure in the card. Though it is lying on the ground, stabbed by not one or two but ten swords, I assure you he's not dead. Yet.

This symbolizes the hope I want to give to you.

Now look at the sky. Though it's very dark at most parts, but there's also a streak of light out there. What does this symbolize??? Of course, sunrise. Though till now clouds have been covering the sky, but now their regime is about to crumble. The sun is all set to rise.

Likewise, in spite of many difficulties and challenges that you shall definitely face this July, the hope for your redemption shall never be totally lost. All you'll have to do is to keep an eye open for it, and it shall stop your insides from freezing due to the storm clouds and blizzards of life.

Let me tell you a secret, which should brighten you up (a pinch at least). There's no arguing the fact that this card, Ten of Swords, is indeed a formidable and unlucky one. But being 'reversed' does dilute it to a great extent. Being in reversed form, it indicates that the situation in itself is not as bad as the way you perceive it. You are making a mountain out of, though definitely not a molehill, a hill. Problems might not be as bad as you make them yourself.

Furthermore, your negative, pessimistic attitude may even stop you from witnessing the moment of ending of your sufferings. You may not realize when have your problems ended and new phases of your life begun. And if this indeed happens, it shall be very unfortunate because then you wouldn't even be able to come out of the despite and negativity.

However, if you indeed want to achieve this, you need to ascertain something. Liberate yourself of old patterns of behavior and thoughts, drop the emotional baggage that you might have gathered during your hard times and turn over a whole new leaf. Your life would be too cluttered if you try to accommodate both the old and the new.

This card indicates a turn for the better.
