Last night I was approached in an online world by someone who knew I read cards. I have pulled cards for friends, but of my own wish to help them, they were never sitting with me firing questions at me to ask for them.
So this person corners me, he needs help and guidance. I tell him I'd be willing to try, but I've not read for anyone like that before. So we chat for a bit and get a feel for the right questions. My cards are super responsive.. cutting themselves and listening and telling intently. It was a good knowing it was making sense to him. Then I guess he'd found a trust or connection so he half jokingly said.. ask your cards if I'd be better off with a gun to my head! EEEP. He did not say it with hatred, remorse or any sense of loss, it was just an avenue he felt comfortable enough to ask, half joking but half at his wits end, struggling to cope with life and open to all. Thank goodness I'm okay with some uncomfortable topics.
I considered for a moment side stepping and not pulling a card, but then I thought why side step. I put myself aside, trusted my cards and let the cards work. The card I pulled couldn't have been better. And he was happy with the reading enough to "tip" me. Totally unexpected, not light and easy first sitter, but one that will always linger. I hope he feels a little more hope today.
So now that I'm here (not here as in AT, but here as in this phase of tarot), .. getting tough questions from querents, what's the hardest type of question you've gotten, how did you react? Are there deep/difficult questions best to refuse to answer?
