Here you go, silverwings94
~
When doing a reading I shuffle the cards, cut and draw between each pull. That way I have a better chance of the cards being very mixed up.
Your reading broke down like this:
2 Faery Challengers
2 Faeries from the Help-Line Troupe
4 Singers of the Realms
Basically 6 cards potentially offering positive aspects in a reading, with 2 providing your obstacles. The funny thing is, I think the two Challengers were dealing with the same issue - so they could be maybe thought of as one topic. And one of the Help-Line Troupe actually represented a separate challenge. Neither of these challenges on the surface appear to be major....more a matter of things you don't want to do!
The Spread... I found this and thought the beginning of Fall was a good time to look at this... so for September...

This spread came from the book: Complete book of Tarot Spreads
by Evelin Burger & Johannes Fiebig
1.
This is possible:
Gawtcha (R) - #64, Faery Challenger
Well, Gawtcha senses that there is something in your life that needs tending to. It is something that has slowed down to a halt….something that maybe you don’t want to take care of….maybe it’s unpleasant, or a drudge, or the thought of facing it makes you uncomfortable. But he says sooner or later it has to be faced.
He says if you take care of it now, then he won’t have to come back later with a little shock of a surprise (that will be more like a cattle prod) in the direction of movement.
I don’t know why, but the word “finances” keeps going through my head.
2.
This is important:
The Fee Lion - #65, Faery Challenger
Ah, the Fee Lion! He echoes what Gawtcha was saying. In fact, he’s standing right next to Gawtcha trying to look fierce and menacing. He says you know what needs to be done, but you just don’t want to do it!
He says you, and everyone around you, will feel a lot better once you do whatever it is you need to do.
He says you will be free of it, and it will make you feel better once it’s taken care of.
3.
This is courageous:
Ekstasis - #2, The Singers of the Realms
Ekstasis did not appear, but a faery named Lacewing did, and she was talking about a song Ekstasis was singing for you.
This song was a lilting melody full of excitement and joy. Ekstasis was singing that you are on the threshold of something big for you…something that will bring you great happiness. It is there for you, and she wants you to be brave and reach out for it! You are on the right track, and if you are courageous enough to take the chance, your self confidence and sense of empowerment will swell because of it.
4.
This is futile:
Honesty - #40, The Help-Line Troupe
I have a feeling this is in regard to your dealings with another person. I feel like you have expressed your opinion in a straightforward – and honest – way, but this person is not in a position to hear you right now. You have done your part but now you just have to stand back and let things follow their natural course.
Now...this could be saying that
you are not looking at something clearly, and are suffering from a bit of self-deception. But for some reason, I think it’s the first thing - dealing with someone else.
5.
This is necessary:
The Singer of Transfiguration (R) – #11, The Singers of the Realms
The great thing about this card is that there is no reverse meaning for it. Its message is written in the past tense, and it says that you have gone through a period of struggle. But you have emerged victorious – and stronger for the experience. The faeries are smiling at you!
I don’t perceive that it was necessary that you went through it – I get the feeling that it is necessary that the faeries congratulate you for getting through it. They are here to applaud you.
6.
This is joyful:
The Singer of Connection - #6, The Singers of the Realms
This Singer is joyful because you have worked hard to develop and maintain close and strong ties within your support group, and all the work is paying off. You have a strong base of family members and friends from whom you can draw strength whenever needed. These are the connections they are happy about.
7.
This is funny:
Taitin the Sylph (R) – #45, The Help-Line Troupe
Taitin loves the mind, and all the flights of fancy that can take place within it. She loves stimulating discussions. In a reversed state, she is less comfortable because she feels like the person experiencing the flights of fancy is not grounded, and their ideas will not bear fruit. This has a tendency to bug her! But I get the impression that Taitin herself is in the middle of a giggle fit right now! And she wants you to enjoy the silliness of life with her. Just take a break from the everyday – but just for a little bit – and let your mind wander into the fanciful. Have fun with it, laugh, play, and in general, revel in the silliness!
8.
This is what helps you get ahead:
The Singer of Courage – #8, The Singers of the Realms
This one is pretty self-explanatory. The few challenges that you have to face in regard to this spread – dealing with an obligation you don’t want to face & backing off of a situation where someone isn’t hearing you – will take courage from you. It will involve in the first instance, doing something and in the second instance, not doing something.
But you have the tools to get through these things. It’s just a matter of accepting the challenges, facing them directly, and moving on.
Overall, I think this is a very bright and happy reading, silverwings94! Nothing too daunting on the horizon. In fact, it looks like you have already come through a rough patch, and are now on the upside.
The faeries are ecstatic (except for the first two! ) and there is quite a lot of celebrating here. Out of eight cards, four of them were Singers, and even Taitin is cutting loose! Honesty is being his sweet, quiet self. And the other two, well, they just want to make sure you take care of business because they know you will be even happier and more relaxed when you’re done.
This has been a very pleasant reading, silverwings 94. I hope you find some truth for you in it, and I hope we can work together again sometime.
