Amanda_04's Cluster Readings ~ End of April 2012

[Polyhymnia]

Amanda, I will get the reading posted today. Sorry about the tardiness, when I signed up I had time up my sleeve, and then things got crazy.

ETA; In europe and it is still the 26th

[Amanda_04]

No problem - it is still the 26th here as well, you've got time.

Awesome, all the readings are in, the sitter is free to leave feedback now

[Amanda_04]

Thanks to everyone for participating this round in a timely manner

I've printed off the readings and will be going through them tonight to come up with a summary.

I won't be doing a Cluster group for the beginning of May. My birthday and Mother's Day are coming around during that time, so I'm taking a vacation. If anyone else would like to facilitate a Cluster group reading, please feel free to do so.

You can look forward to having the summary reading for this thread posted up tomorrow, most-likely.

Thank you again for your participation this round, and be on the lookout for the summary within the next day or so.

Cards are posted in the order that the readers posted their readings: Kgirl, Polyhymnia, SA12

1. What are you really hoping for? - Ace of Pentacles + World + 2 of Pentacles
Kgirl says you have a seed of an idea that you hope takes off to form something concrete. Polyhymnia says things have run their course and she feels you want more; everything and anything that the sun and moon have to offer you. SA12 says you hope for a change in circumstances; to come out on top of what is currently in flux.

2. What do you need to 'open-up' within yourself to make your hopes come true? - 7 of Cups + Death + Death
Kgirl says you have many opportunities and choices and maybe you know what you want, but don't know how to make it happen. Polyhymnia says even though you are ready, you will need to transmute - be honest with yourself; something needs to change for your hope to come true. SA12 says things inevitably change and you can't be afraid of "endings" which are frequently transitions to new beginnings and blessings.

3. What potentials lay within you to make this hope come about? - Ace of Cups + Sun + 7 of Swords
Kgirl says the seed of emotions and desires is there. Polyhymnia says your potential lies in following the guidance of your heart; it's a time of clear vision and following the path that is illuminated by the Sun to find your success. SA12 says you "know better" already and you have the knowledge, cunning, and street smarts to assess the situation and come out on top.

4. What do you hope is the eventual outcome? - 4 of Pentacles + 8 of Wands + 2 of Swords
Kgirl says you want to establish something real that you can make your own. Polyhymnia says you want the outcome to come swiftly, according to plan, and with the good times rolling in. SA12 says you hope to find balance to break the stalemate and move on.

5. What is the opposition to what you are hoping for? - 2 of Wands + Strength + King of Pentacles
Kgirl says you feel restless as you wait and not to allow indecision to block you - take charge. Polyhymnia says the opposition lies in your impatience which may cause you to be too forceful and lose your inner balance. SA12 says you or some other authority in your life wants things to stay as they are, so a fear of losing the things that have been built up and grown accustomed to may be at play here as well.

6. What other possible eventuality might occur? - Queen of Cups + Page of Swords + 5 of Pentacles
Kgirl says dreaming will consume you if you don't act and you should embrace what you love and what your heart desires; someone else could take what you want. Polyhymnia says there could be delays or postponements, which indicates a necessity for clear-thinking and caution. SA12 says you could come to terms with the hardship that hurt you in the past, but you may also face another bump in the road.

7. What do you need to do to make your hopes come true? - 7 of Pentacles + Fool + 10 of Cups
Kgirl says you need to assess, plan, and decide whether what you want is actually right for you; once you are certain, your efforts will be rewarded. Polyhymnia says you need to believe, be positive, be willing and pliable; fear nothing for you are free to go wherever you want to go. SA12 says to open yourself to trusted friends and loved ones and seek their emotional support.

What's really weird... is you have no 3s, 6s, or 9s. Those are all divisible by three. I wonder what the significance of that is? And Death twice made me think you are repeating something. An old lesson maybe.

Ohh three my favourite number, (me a three, Polyhymnia the 3rd muse). 'Three' lines to a triangle; a symbol for power and safety and also sometimes success and prosperity.

Three is the birthing of true wisdom.
It is a symbol of the unity of body, mind and spirit;
The three divisions of time - past, present and future.
The three persons in grammar - me, myself and I.
The sum of all human ability is threefold - thought, word and deed.

This suggests to me perhaps Mainegirl, that you are/will (be) lack/ing one of the sides of the triangle to make this happen. So a question to ask yourself;
Are the sum of my parts working together towards unified glory?

My 2 cents

What's really interesting here.. is the Ace and 2/pent surrounding the World. The World adds to 3, the Ace and 2 are in sum a 3... they sum to 6 (balance) of unified aspects. If you look at this from a spiritual context in regards to the World, there is divine union present - so.. pulling together my life and it's various aspects (work plus family) would give a 'whole' picture.

2. What do you need to 'open-up' within yourself to make your hopes come true? - 7 of Cups + Death + Death
Kgirl says you have many opportunities and choices and maybe you know what you want, but don't know how to make it happen.

Very 'watery' cards here, with repeating Death seems significant. I do need change! 13 also signifies the rotation of moons in a year - my year ends/starts Today! 3 is present here, but paired with 1. I just heard yesterday from a cluster of applications, all the same job but in different locations - they're seriously considering my application May is also full of really strong Scorpio influences, the solar eclipse and planetary transits that warn people that if they try and hold on to past ideas, patterns etc this month will be very uncomfortable for them...

3. What potentials lay within you to make this hope come about? - Ace of Cups + Sun + 7 of Swords
Kgirl says the seed of emotions and desires is there. Polyhymnia says your potential lies in following the guidance of your heart; it's a time of clear vision and following the path that is illuminated by the Sun to find your success. SA12 says you "know better" already and you have the knowledge, cunning, and street smarts to assess the situation and come out on top.

I can't help but think this again, is highlightening the journey I've been on this past year to really focus on what I *love* to do, making that a priority, and doing what I need to do to make it happen!

4. What do you hope is the eventual outcome? - 4 of Pentacles + 8 of Wands + 2 of Swords
Kgirl says you want to establish something real that you can make your own. Polyhymnia says you want the outcome to come swiftly, according to plan, and with the good times rolling in. SA12 says you hope to find balance to break the stalemate and move on.

Job offer, job offer, job offer....

5. What is the opposition to what you are hoping for? - 2 of Wands + Strength + King of Pentacles
Kgirl says you feel restless as you wait and not to allow indecision to block you - take charge. Polyhymnia says the opposition lies in your impatience which may cause you to be too forceful and lose your inner balance. SA12 says you or some other authority in your life wants things to stay as they are, so a fear of losing the things that have been built up and grown accustomed to may be at play here as well.

The waiting to start anew, and learning to be patient in the process...

6. What other possible eventuality might occur? - Queen of Cups + Page of Swords + 5 of Pentacles
Kgirl says dreaming will consume you if you don't act and you should embrace what you love and what your heart desires; someone else could take what you want. Polyhymnia says there could be delays or postponements, which indicates a necessity for clear-thinking and caution. SA12 says you could come to terms with the hardship that hurt you in the past, but you may also face another bump in the road.

This imagery is interesting.. The woman looking at her cup on a throne, the young person with wings and the person passing the church. Wonder what's up with that!

Divine intervention!?

7. What do you need to do to make your hopes come true? - 7 of Pentacles + Fool + 10 of Cups
Kgirl says you need to assess, plan, and decide whether what you want is actually right for you; once you are certain, your efforts will be rewarded. Polyhymnia says you need to believe, be positive, be willing and pliable; fear nothing for you are free to go wherever you want to go. SA12 says to open yourself to trusted friends and loved ones and seek their emotional support.

In relation to your comment about the 3's and missing something.. this draw looks interesting... Fostering/nuturing... the Spirit.... of happiness...
