Hello,
Today is my birthday, and to celebrate I decided to make a special spread for myself with the Deck I received as a gift. (It's the Tarot Nouveau). I was racking my brain to come up with something special, and in the end I got a nice but probably not so original idea. Since I turned 22, I decided to use the majors are positions to see what would come up. I assigned a keyword to each major and decided to see what would be important in the coming year.
I was ofcourse existed to see how much majors I would pull, and if any would be on the same positions!
I have omitted the beautiful descriptions I made, because else this post would be way to long. (The Reading is currently 5 pages long in Word)
Beginnings/Journeys: Temperance
Immediatly a major, and one I am not too familiar with. It seemed to me that in the coming year, my journeys and unfamiliar beginnings will be tempered, and balanced. I will get everything together. A rather positive card I felt.
Tools/Talents: 9 of Swords RX
Ah, how nice =) I had to laugh when I saw this card. Yes, I tend to overly worry, and I should stop it. Reversed it shows me I got the talents and the tools to get out of any confusing situation. I definatly need to give myself more credit.
Inner Voice: 5 of Swords RX
Ah, it seems like my inner voice is always telling me to trust it. I guess it's possible to work in your own self-interest without being dishonourable. My own inner compass will lead the way. There are no defeats or broken hopes if I follow it.
Creativity: The Hanged Man RX
And another Major. Creativity is rather important to me, since it makes up a great deal of my life. I think the hanged man RX stands for me doing what I feel is right. I think it's especially curious it comes up in this position, since the Empress also stands for the mother figure, and I always have trouble standing up to her.
Structure: 3 of Pentacles
Now, I had to laugh even more. The structure that shall become important next year to me, is ME! I often come up in readings as the 3 of Pentacles. A structure of teamwork and competence is going to be important to me too. I must not forget that asking for help is not a weakness.
Values: Ace of Cups rx
This one had me puzzled for a while. In the next year... the values I held for love are going to be upset I think... This especially ties in with later cards.
Love: Knight of Swords rx
Hummm yes... Recently I had somebody come up in my Readings as a Knight of Swords rx. I wonder if this means him, or if this means another warning to myself. Don't overly analyse your feelings, don't forget to weight your feelings in your decisions. If you forget your feelings, you are never going to be happy in love.
Control: The Magician RX
Always nice when the Cards decide to tell you something you know, but that's hard to accept. Yes, I need to control my manipulative side. I don't do it on purpose but sometimes I notice that the drama queen in me is just happy by manipulating others. I must make good use of my tools. I also feel this signifies that I shouldn't let somebody else control me either.
Strength: 10 of Wands rx
Hehehe, this had me laughing. Others often comment on how I seem to be able to be strong enough to carry so much burdens that would make others collapse. Now I feel confident I can carry the challenges.
Guidance: 4 of Pentacles
The Art Nouveau Booklet gave a different take on this traditional "miser" card. It said it signifies insecurity. It seems my guidance is to trust myself, and not to feel insecure about work issues.
Changes/Chances: The Wheel
Ok, so I got it tripled great! The Wheel in the Wheel position, and it is my year of the Wheel. Seems I am going to be spinning....
I think I need to take a hand in it.
Responsibilities: 8 of Wands RX
Stop dreaming, start working. Heard you loud and clear ^^
Sacrifices: 9 of Cups
This had me a bit sad. Seeing the ultimate happiness, wish card in the sacrifices spot. After some thought and help from Arnaud though, he said it probably stood for passive dreaming, and that I should go out and make it real. (Which would tie up with the Responsibilites)

Let it end! I have had enough health issues in the past few years.
