Turkey -- What sustains you.
Stuffing-- What completes you.
Cranberry Sauce -- What you don't get enough of.
Green Bean Casserole -- What you get too much of.
Bread -- What you need to share.
Pie -- What you should enjoy more.
Blessing --What your blessing is in life.

Turkey--What sustains me?
Ace of Swords Decisions and activities sustain me so keeping busy is something that keeps me going.

Stuffing--What completes me?
Ten of Swords Distruption, dark times? this is weird so I guess I am not fully complete without some type of darkness in me? But wouldn't that be everyone as well cause their is no peace without disruption right?<ponders>

Cranberry Sauce--What I don't get enough of?
Two of Cups I don't get enough of love, friendship, or commitments. I guess that would be true.

Green Bean Casserole--What do I get too much of?
Three of Swords I get too much emotional upheavals, so maybe I get too many bad things happening around me.

Bread-- What do I need to share?
Hermit I got the hermit so I need to share my solitude or aloneness? How do you share aloneness?
ETA: maybe not share my aloneness but instead share myself? stop being alone then?

Pie--What I should enjoy more of?
Five of Swords I should enjoy more slander, arguements, and failure? What is wrong with my cards?

mayhaps someone has a better meaning for this card.

Blessing--What is my blessing in life?
Ten of Wands Trying even without out succeeding because I do try that is my blessing.

Well then here is my spread I hope someone can help me interperate this maybe a little bit better. haha I think I did alright this time. But we shall see.

Hi Jifmona,

you did a good job interpreting your spread! Here is my take:

Turkey--What sustains me?
Ace of Swords

This is a card of seeking truth, also of the spark of ideas. Do you have a lot of ideas? Do you like to think things up?

Stuffing--What completes me?
Ten of Swords

The 10 of Swords is about coming to the end of a stressful cycle (think the 5 of Swords--which I attribute to stress--times 2

). Are you coming to the end of such a cycle in your life?

Also...do you happen to get acupunture treatments? I've heard of this card showing up as an indicator of that. LOL

Cranberry Sauce--What I don't get enough of?
Two of Cups

I agree with your take to a point; but the 2 of Cups is also about harmony and (in the New Orleans Voodoo Tarot) wisdom. Do you leap before you look, or make decisions based on emotion (and they dont' turn out well sometimes, causing disruption to your life)? This kind of goes back to the 10 of Swords card.

Green Bean Casserole--What do I get too much of?
Three of Swords

You keep beating a dead horse, as my grandfather used to say.

You keep dwelling on a hurt and keeping those hurt feelings around. Kind of like picking at a scab, which prevents the wound from healing properly--or worrying a loose tooth; there is a unique pleasure in teh pain that can be addictive.

Bread-- What do I need to share?
Hermit

The Hermit not only seeks solitude for self-enlightenment, but he holds his light aloft as he goes. You need to be that beacon in the darkness for other lost souls.

Pie--What I should enjoy more of?
Five of Swords

Interesting that you are the second person to do this spread and have this card come up in this position! This card, in this position, indicates that you should enjoy more assertion. Stand up for yourself. Be the one taking the swords, instead of having the swords taken from you. You can do this without being nasty or belittling to others.

Blessing--What is my blessing in life?
Ten of Wands

Your blessing is to persevere because you keep your eye on the prize. Some 10 of Wands cards show the man burdened by the stack of wands on his back, but he is heading toward his home/kingdom...so his burden is for a reason. His goal is to use all that burden to build something more lasting and substantial.

Also...you have a lot of swords in this reading. You live in your head a lot, dont' you?

Just my $.02.

Yes, there is a lot of stressers around me so its great to know that the end of a stressful cycle is near.

No, no I have never gotten acupuncture haha ^.^

I do a bit of both I sometimes look before I leap and every once in a while just leap based on emotions

So I like the hurt I am giving myself then? kinda of like pain after you haven't exercised in a while?

The Hermit not only seeks solitude for self-enlightenment, but he holds his light aloft as he goes. You need to be that beacon in the darkness for other lost souls.

So help those that need help when they ask for it then.

So just be confident then? hmm <ponders>

I totally agree with this meaning and card I am the type of person that if I have a goal I will reach it because I won't give up. ^.^

Live in my head? haha is that a bad thing? hehe ^.^'
