Lady Mary	10 Feb 2004
In the middle of the eulogy at my mother’s boring and heartbreaking funeral, I began to think about calling off the wedding. August 21 did not seem like a good date, John Wescott did not seem like a good person to marry, and I couldn’t see myself in the long white silk gown Mrs. Wescott had offered me. … When the minister said: She was a rare spirit, full of the kind of bravery and joy which inspires others, I stared at the pale blue ceiling and thought: My mother would not have wanted me to spend my life with him. Amy Bloom: Love is not a pie

I'm gonna guess Death since there seems to be a lot of change about to happen, not to mention she's at a funeral. :)

Lady Mary	10 Feb 2004
No, not this card.

The Star! Newfound hope, after a life-altering occurence.

Lady Mary	10 Feb 2004
No, not the Star.

The Hanged Man? Seeing things suddenly from a new perspective.

Four of Cups? Frustration with what life is offering at the moment, and hopes of rebellion.

Lady Mary	11 Feb 2004
None of these cards.

The tower? Based on the rather sudden realization, and bailing on the upcomming wedding. LadyMedusa

VI Lovers Rx here in the sense of an individual taking on the hand of his beloved, with his mother's approval/blessing... but reversed :)

Oooh - Lovers was going to be my first guess - but jmd has beaten me to it.... :-) but then thought of Six of Cups - past memories and future dreams - receiving help or inspiration from a family member (mother) .... CreativeFire

How about the Chariot? Being inspired by her mother, she realises that she does have a choice...and that there is an alternative route to travel.

Lady Mary	11 Feb 2004
Yeah, jmd got it! Congratulations! It's Lovers or Love or Crossroads, the decision you've to make, how to go on with your life, what you want to do with your life. So over to you, jmd!
