Yesterday I did my first reading with the Greenwood deck and lo, I only got Minors of the number 5, 6 and 7! Imagine, a CC spread only with 5's, 6's and 7's! Has this ever happened to you?

Yes, it has even happened that I've gotten all four of one number. A few times three aces (Cups, Pentackles & Wands) have showed up in one reading. I've noticed that the 5's use to pop up a lot. Quarreling, competitions in my life? Nooooo.... :D :P ~aeonx~

Hm, I have to look up my old spreads and see if there was a higher frequency of 5's. Can't recall it by heart rigth now.

Catlin (love your avatar, btw) - I haven't had this happen to me, yet... But I have seen it happen to my girlfriend who was amazed to find not one single Major in a spread of 15 cards! What was your spread for? (ex. - general; love; health) :TAC Starfish

I would have been sooooo disappointed if I had a love reading, 15 cards, with not one single Major!! :D (If I wasn't seeing anyone that is... ;) ) ~aeonx~

Catlin: I have only seen triples of a minor card in readings for others; do not recall experiencing it in self-readings. You might consider checking your Year Card; also your Personality & Soul Cards. Depending on what your Lifetime Cards are, minor cards can reflect the aspects of same that you may be working on.

Lifetime cards?! Is this something I missed, MeeWah? Is there a chance to get more information about it somewhere or a you talking about shadow card, personality card etc?

Yeah, I once did a five-card spread and got three Eights and two Aces. My first thought was "hey, full house!"

Catlin: Yes, Lifetime Cards refer to the Personality, Soul & Shadow Cards.
