Dark Eyes	08 May 2003
Hi All, :D Here is my reading post....., The past.... My client has recently had some complications with her partner of many years, not her husband, but very dear partner. Although the problems are mostly due to financial difficulties, she has become very unstable and insecure regarding their relationship and feels that perhaps she should walk away and start again trying to build up her resources and bank balance again. The money issue, has caused a rift in their relationship and although she doesn't want money to rule, there is nothing she can do personally to improve things. The first card mirrors this loss of self esteem, loss of faith in herself and loss of self worth. The present......( The glitch in the situation, is that my client has met someone else who is almost half her age and has suddenly decided that perhaps this is the direction she should go, he seems very interested and sweet ) As she is feeling totally disheartened and sorry for herself (card 2)she feels like putting the past behind her. She believes that the past cannot be redeemed, that all is lost. She is failing to see the good things that are still in her life and continues to wallow in depression over her breakup, blindly believing that the new younger man will be the answer. The third card The present.... warns heavily that no... the new man is not the right way to go. Your illusions will be shattered, the rug will be pulled out from under you, you will have no control of the outcome and will be forced to accept defeat in a bigger way than in the past. The first card leaves you with a choice, the second card leaves you with a choice... but the third card.... ? Card one = 5 pentacles Card two = 5 cups Card three = ??

I have to go now because the kitchen timer has just gone off - I gave myself just an hour for online activities this morning - but is it ....... The Tower? A.

I've watched you, allibee, lurking at the door, waiting for the post and hopping in before everyone else :joke: I was going to say Tower as well but since that's gone (sigh), I'll have a go with 10 Swords on the rationale that 10 Swords in the back is pretty devasting accountability Moongold Ps...have a few other ideas too but will watch the elimination if there is any...

Allibee !!! yes it is the Tower. I am going to give this up I think, My clues are too too eeeeeazy !! boo boo hoo !![img] I'm givin up :(

Moongold	08 May 2003
We don't mind if you make them a little more cryptic...... Allibee will :) Moongold

Dark Eyes	08 May 2003
O.K. Next time I will trick you like never before!!! I will try a smilie, but it may not work. Thanks moongold for being supportive in my hour of need. boo

Moongold	08 May 2003
Well, Dark Eyes, there is gentle support and tough support :) You might have noticed that when we take off our Tarot cloaks we are a wee bit competitive (at least....I am....!....a little....). May I offer a suggestion? Start from the end and work backwards! That often works......make it tough fo us so that you end up throwing hints out like breadcrumbs....... Warm regards... Moongold

Oh Moongold ...... I waited 11 w-h-o-l-e minutes :( .... ;) but do you know what Dark Eyes, I'd love you to have a go for me, I'm so busy, pleeeeeeeease???? and take Moongolds advice, it's really good: like a good coiffeur, tease those strands ........ please don't give up, I need you! A.

Finally, after my computer freezing up on me at least a million times.... I am back !! Yes Moongold, I have noticed the competitiveness and yes, it's time for me to stop playing with you all and get down to business hehehehe ! The real Dark Eyes will soon emerge, to twist the clues like never before. I will torment you all with my clever synonyms, and have you all squirming and pleading for normal clues again. However, I need a little time ( about 8 hours at least heheheh) um.... to .... um ..... dig deep into my brain and try and remember what I did in English at school.... um... it was a long time ago, about at least 24 years..., so bear with me please, I will wealllly twy my best. Ta everyone See you all soon Dark Eyes. p.s. Thanks Allibee, you are a clever guesser though, and thanks for your turn. I won't dissappoint you I promise. Dark Eyes :)

((((Dark Eyes)))) You are taking us seriously I see and disappering into the caverns of time to get a suitable scenario. I grew up in a family of six kids and I had to be competitive to be noticed :), We used to have long debates in Sunday afternoon following lunch and I can still remember my Dad's voice booming. He was an English teacher LOL and loved debate. Try to trick us with impressions associated with qualities and elements and you can't go wrong. Moongold
