Interesting things to note:
The central card on the bottom row (the Zigeuner cards) is “Falseness”. The cards surrounding the central card in the top row (the Lenormand) are the Fox and the Snake, both of which resemble the Cat and Snake in falsness. The rider (top row) also has a resemblance to the coachman in the “journey” card (bottom row) and the predominant horse is white as it the horse the rider is on.
In the top row, the Lady’s body is facing the other cards, however her face itself is turned away. She is coulpled with the Fox. This can imply either that she is clever or underhanded. The lady is also coupled with the Rider who is approaching her. Since the Lady is generally the Querent or Questioner, she would be me. So the rider may be bringing me a message from a woman (snake) who is less than trustworthy (fox). What is also unsettling is that my home is surrounded by the fox and snake.
In the Gypsy (Zigeuner) reading, it’s kicked off by Misfortune. So it seems something rather unpleasant is going to occur. Fortunately it will not be a long term influence (as indicated by the visit) or perhaps it will come from a visit. The visit card has an elment of surprise to it. The third card is falseness which is also a rather negative card. It can indciate deception – internally or externally. Maybe this visit will force me to face something that I know but am turning a blind eye to? Next is unexpected joy which is a very positive card, so whatever the unfortunate event is, I can at least take heart that it will be for the best. It’s followed by journey. The journey card can indicate a long time or a sudden voyage. Maybe I am happy to be going on a trip? The other possibility is that something that appeared to be a very bad situation (misfortune) was not (falsness) when I visit it and see it for what it is?
Today I asked a question, specifically when we would hear about a new job for my husband. Here is the draw:
red 5 - red 3 - green 8
The red cards in the Pages of Shustah are about adversity, trouble, severity and disappointments. The green cards are about development, desire, growth and progress.
Red 5, The Black Cat – The card of alert attention. Emotional threat, jealousy, treachery, danger.
Red 3, The Seperating Fence. The card of severence. Emotional seperation, release from a personal relationship.
Green 8, The Journey. The card of progress. A physical trip to another state or country.
The Black Cat has always looked to me like a wolverine. Wolverines are fierce little creatures and can be deceptive as to how powerful they are because of their small size. They have been known to go after bears to defend food and territory. But I digress. The message of the cat is to be alert to dangerous situations. I found this to be interesting because of some of the issues my husband has been having of late with a client.
I was having some difficulty with the fence, so I consulted the very uplifting and informative blog of Ken Foorwhich is all about the Pages of Shustah. Now it makes more sense. The fence is diving two people, but it is a mesh fence. The people can still see and communicate with each other. So while we should be alert to potential problems (black cat) we should keep the lines of communication open, whilst maintaining seperation from our feelings on the matter.
The journey to me is the most interesting of the three cards. It is a card of progress, and specifically (according to the accompanying book) deals with long distance travel. So the turning point in our hunt will be associated with a long distance trip. We have one trip planned currently, but that doesn’t rule out my husband having to travel before then either – his business trips tend to be dropped on us last minute due to the nature of his job.
All in all I am very pleased with this reading. It’s very uplifting – yes we still have some challanges and barriers to overcome, but there is hope for progress. It almost makes my regular two day headache bearable, lol..
