Readings
Three Cards
The three card tarot spread is one of the oldest methods. You can get to the heart of your question with a simple three-card Tarot reading. In this spread, there are three different positions which can be changed by to your preference, Past – Present – Future (or Situation – Action – Outcome, Situation – Obstacle – Advice and etc.).
The meaning of the card you choose varies according to it’s position.
This opening provides a GENERAL perspective to the period you are in. Or you can evaluate the comments in the frame of your question.
Page of Cups
Upright
Creative opportunities, intuitive messages, curiosity, possibility
The Page of Cups implies a new idea or possibility has come to you. Your artistic energy is running, and now the problem is how you will show it. Will you take this idea and turn it into reality, or will you let someone else bring it to fulfillment? Explore the idea to see if you want to move ahead.
The Page of Cups calls you to have an open mind. Be ready to anything – even a fish jumping out of a cup! It is with an interesting mind that you will discover new perspectives on life. Be open to all probabilities, particularly those of a creative nature, you will be very astonished.
As each Page card invites you to discover a new aspect of yourself, the Page of Cups is inviting you to explore your emotional character. Dreamy ideas rush through your consciousness, and you may find yourself affected by simplistic things. Don’t be hesitant to let your feelings flow.
This card often arises when you are being invited to trust your inspiration and be open to the crowd of instinctive information coming to you. They may come from amazing places, or they may not even make sense to your logical mind; be open to the possibility and ready to explore new perspectives of yourself.
In a rational understanding, the Page of Cups can symbolize that you will get a nice surprise. The Page cards are often identified as the messengers, and with the Page of Cups, you may obtain a message about the emotions, feeling, or imaginative endeavors. It might be a new love affair or a new job offer. It is not a surprise you can expect or make; be ready to accept when the time comes.
Reversed
New ideas, doubting intuition, creative blocks, emotional immaturity
The reversed Page of Cups implies that you are keeping your creative ideas secret. You may bother that others will steal your idea or tell you it’s going to fail. You are keeping your plans private instead, so you can develop them more without the influence of other people.
With the reversed Page of Cups, you may feel invited to attempt a new plan, but you wonder whether you can really get it to work. Your internal critic may be on over-drive or people around you are telling you that you’re daydreaming – so you are postponing and holding back. Listen to your heart whether it’s time to just do it regardless of the consequence.
If you are exploring your inspiration, the reversed Page of Cups can hint that you are facing a lot of uncertainty. You are trying carefully to listen to your inner voice, but when the messages come within, you are left questioning if it’s your intuitive guidance or your mind.
Sometimes, the reversed Page of Cups can display someone who is emotionally naive – perhaps overly dramatic, who over-shares and is very vulnerable. This may be someone who is likely to emotional outbursts when they do not get their direction. Or it may be someone who is overly romantic about their future and who is not grounded in truth. It may be ‘Peter Pan Syndrome’, in which a grown-up acts like a child for the rest of their lives.
Knight of Cups
Upright
Creativity, romance, charm, imagination, beauty
The Knight of Cups is the traditional romantic of the Tarot deck. He is in touch with his feelings, and he uses them masterfully to impress and attract. The Knight is loving, caring and very in touch with his sensitive side. He may be writing a passionate poem to his beloved, creating art caused by his deep feelings. His heart is fully open. He shares his love without limitation or worry; he is in love with love.
When the Knight of Cups appears in a Tarot reading, you succeed on all things beautiful. While the Page of Cups was inspired by an artistic idea, the Knight of Cups is driven by action. You have fantasized about what it is you need to build and now are moving ahead with this idea to make it a reality. It may be an art plan or something you feel ‘invited’ to do, based on your emotions, imagination. Be open to searching for your passions.
All Knights are on a purpose, and this Knight’s mission is romance, altruism, empathy, and grace. You have an image of peace and are ready to make it into existence. You are lead by your soul and want to see the love for everyone concerned.
When it comes to making choices, the Knight of Cups is ruled by his heart. When this card appears in a Tarot reading, you are making choices based on how you feel about a circumstance rather than what you think, even if others can’t understand what you are doing and why, and your inspiration leads you in everything you do.
Reversed
Overactive imagination, unrealistic, jealous, moody
When the reversed Knight of Cups shows up in a Tarot reading, a creative project is beginning, but you are not willing to work on it just yet. You may consume most of your time fantasizing up what is likely to be or how amazing it will be when it comes to achievement. While it can be improving to be in the dreamy stage for a while, the project will not come into being until you start to work.
Sometimes, the reversed Knight of Cups can symbolize that you are irritable, unhappy, and insecure. You may feel disappointed that you are not being given the chance to dream and design.
The reversed Knight of Cups can represent someone who has an overly romantic strategy to life and is separated from reality.
Three of Pentacles
Upright
Teamwork, collaboration, learning, implementation
When the Three of Pentacles card shows up in a Tarot reading, get it as a message to cooperate with other people to achieve big outcomes. Each person has an essential role to play, and when they come together as an organization, they can build something much more meaningful than if they were to begin the plan on their own.
The Three of Pentacles symbolizes the value of various views and levels of knowledge in collaboration. Even though their qualifications, experiences are very varied, they can share their perspective in a way that builds synergy and enhances the completed outcome. So, when you work on projects with other people, recognize the importance that each person delivers to the table. You will also discover from each member of the organization when you see their individual participation.
The Three of Pentacles card, like the other Threes in the Tarot, signifies the first steps of implementation that accompany the Ace‘s phase and the organizing step of the Two’s. You know what you want to build; you’ve laid out the ideas, collected your supplies, and arranged to work. Of course, you are not close to the ending yet, but you are making things proceed.
See the Three of Pentacles as a reassurance that you are on the correct path. You are skilled at what you do. Accomplishing important goals, such as constructing a magnificent church, needs accurate planning. This card, accordingly, tells you to design a complete plan and to follow your agenda.
Reversed
Disharmony, misalignment, working alone
Reversed, the Three of Pentacles implies you may be fighting with a lack of unity with your team members and it hard to finish a project together. You’re not on the same page and not appreciating each other’s ideas. If this resonates, you need to reconnect with the fundamental goals of the plan and make new arrangements about how you will operate together to accomplish those purposes. The reversal of this card can imply that you need to make well-organized energy into your job.
There may also be a lack of tolerance between company members, people may be trying to prove themselves and gain an advantage over each other.
The reversed Three of Pentacles can also point out that you are working in a comparatively ordinary job in which your participation and expertise go under-valued. There is not much possibility for growth and improvement, and you feel as if your skills are not being used. It may be the correct time to make career progress and find a company that appreciates your expertise.
Sometimes, the reversed Three of Pentacles can symbolize that you like to work alone and get the work done yourself. You may be tired of waiting for others to complete. However, if you find yourself in striving too hard, be open to seeking cooperation.
