I did a Celtic Cross Spread for the first time- I usually stick to just pulling 3-4 cards for any given situation, but I thought it might be nice to give this a try. Clearly, I'm not ready for that since I'm still learning meanings. I'm also using the Linestrider Tarot deck which may be why I'm struggling to learn since it's not a traditional learning deck.
My question was pretty general: what is coming for summer both within my marriage and school (since I'm about to start summer classes in my MSW program).
Card 1: The Present. 7 of Swords. Oh great, am I being cheated on? I can be insecure but i feel a pretty high level of trust within my marriage. I do worry about it sometimes, but now I'm more worried. Or, I wonder if this has something to do with maybe feeling cheated at school?
Card 2: The challenge. 8 of Swords. Lots of swords. I'm not very good at facts based, logical, reasoning, so I'm wondering if these two swords cards are telling me that I need to be more logical and rely less on emotions? Maybe my emotional view is hurting me? I wonder if I'm being blind to something in my relationship?
Card 4: The future. The Devil: I'm getting a greater sense of unhealthy patterns and relationships emerging. I wonder if this is trying to say that my relationship is unhealthy or that the unhealthy aspects are keeping me from reaching my true potential/ happiness. That sounds vague??
Card 6: Below/ subconscious: 5 Wands: Conflict.I wonder if these are my own thoughts about whether the relationship is healthy? I do have some doubts, so I wonder if this is my own internal struggle or attempt to justify the fact that I want to be in the relationship and hope things change even when I know they probably wont.
Card8: External Influences. Knight of Wands. This one is really tricky for me. I'm not sure who this is supposed to be or how it relates. I get that it's saying maybe some in my life is going to come in and shake things up, but I'm not sure how or who or why. Could it potentially be implying that there will be someone who I'm attracted to or a person who might change how I feel about my relationship?
So, yeah, I'm new here, and new to tarot. I hope I did this post right. I think my struggle lies in connecting the cards, not just reading them individually. Also, I'm getting a lot of relationship stuff from this reading, and I'm feeling unsure if I'm interpreting it to be relationship based. Also, some cards popped up reversed but I'm not yet reading reversals.
thanks in advance for any ideas, responses, or help!
